Hello,
I am trying to figure something out that I can not find for the life of me on google.
In the country I live... I can get a Miele WWG360 Front loader for $2600. It is a 9kg washer, has single wash function and quick power wash 2.0 (amongst other things).
if I option for a Miele for $2250 in their 8kg range... they come with quick power wash but no single wash and if I go with a $1700 miele 8kg (the lowest 8kg machine they got) it hasn't got quick power was or single wash.
Anyway - I spoke to miele, If i want to wash 2 shirts only or a handful of socks only, or 1 single towel or anything that is basically a handful for the 1kg load... the miele machine will not work unless I select 'single wash'.
So that means I can not wash a handful of items in a Miele properly unless I buy the WWG360 for $2600 which has the 'single wash' feature.
The quick power wash lets you do 4kg in under 50min.
So after I spend $2600 I can wash 1kg (single wash), 4kg (quick power)and the regular 9kg loads.
Now -
if I buy a Bosch 8 series machine... I can pick up a decent 9kg one for $1550. It has Idos etc (which I wouldn't even use) or I can get a 10kg one for under $1700. Point is the Bosch is $1000 cheaper. Bosch "active water plus" technology means if I put 1kg of washing in, it will wash the 1kg just as effectively as a full load.
With Miele the machine wont work unless you have that single wash feature which means with Miele you have to spend $2600 to be able to wash 1kg load, with the Bosch I could do it for $1600 since all their machines can wash any load size and don't need a specific function to work for that load size.
So what I am trying to figure out is...
I put 2 shirts in the bosch, I put 2 shirts in the Miele.
With the Miele I put it on single wash, and it costs me $2600.
With the Bosch, it just works on regular setting and it costs me $1600.
What exactly is going to be the different besides the $1000 extra that I have to spend on Miele to be able to do a 1kg load?
Money wise I can buy either... just trying to figure out why spend $1000 more on a miele to 'be able to wash 1kg' when a Bosch can wash 1kg or 10kg or anything inbetween for less than $1700 and both are made in Germany.
Was miele just too dumb to make their machines work with any load and so they had to create a specific function for it which is only available on the higher end Miele's? Since the company is solid and creates top quality appliances, then I have to assume they weren't dumb in designing in that way... so I have to ask how is it different/better than the Bosch in that regard? Or it isnt...
And anything else to keep in mind 'besides' this one point between the 2?
Any feedback?
Thanks
