The Apprentice-Dishwasher Style (U.K)

Automatic Washer - The world's coolest Washing Machines, Dryers and Dishwashers

Help Support :

In week 11, It was the final interviews and the John Lewis was the next to go. Although it looks classy and has plenty of features, the styling of it is just too plain for my liking and it will date quickly.
 
In week 12, it was the final. Of the 4 remaining candidates, only 1 will become The Apprentice. Now, I'm going to put them out of their misery.

In 4th place and the next to go is the AEG. Good but not quite good enough.
 
....hmmmm

Problems with my 2 years old TOL Dryer by Zanussi...
Can't wait to get my AEG washer dryer out of storage in 4 weeks!!! (but they are out of the running......) And my slimline Bosch DW of 3 years, in my opinion, could do with an extra rinse on all progs!!! I am lost!!!!!!

I think it will go to Miele......
Won't be able to sleep tonight and will logging on tomorrow to see who did the busines!!!
Nice to know that the failed Dishwashers can't slag their peers the following morning on Breakfast TV when I am waking up, like their human counterparts lol!!!
 
The next to go and in 3rd place is the Bosch. A superb and capable machine but it's not really for me.
 
Bosch and Siemens are the same inside

So you might want to explore all the options before rejecting one or the other. Just a thought - I've had Mieles since the early 1980's (actually, only two. My current one and the first one which the idiot movers dropped down the stairs whilst I was moving house. Only 17 years old, for a Miele practically new).
One thing to note: Several UK folks have had trouble getting info. from the UK B/S/H group...whereas Miele and AEG seem to have decent service in the UK. Not that Miele will ever need it.
I wouldn't place too much value on the German consumer tests; they tend to set some very strange priorities - my Miele tested quite a bit higher than far more expensive ones the year I bought mine; the guide book for mine was printed on recycled paper and the more expensive models were still using bleached paper. Made an entire one-half point difference on a six point scale!
But B/S/H are quieter...
 
In 2nd place and the runner-up is the Siemens. A nice machine with loads of great innovative features but it's not quite what I'm looking for.
 
In 1st place and the winner of AW's The Apprentice is...

The Miele. The best quality, the best reliability, the best features and it's practically perfect in every way.

So, I'm finally going to say this...

The Miele...You're Hired!
 
Now that's what I'm talking about!

So, there you have it. My search for The Apprentice is over and 1 day, the new dishwasher will arrive. I'll let you know soon.
