Back from Miele Washing Machines to Washing Machine Reviews
I’ve had my Miele washer and dryer for 10 years now. I had one previous to that, and when I was selling my house the buyer offered me a big chunk of money to leave it with the house so I did. I LOVE my Miele laundry! When my son visits Grandma and she washes his clothes in her generic stuff I immediately re-wash everything in my Miele when he gets home.
Meile washing machine products are excellent providing they don’t break down. We bought a Meile front endloader model W2515. Our broke down after 3 years. Contacted the approved Meile repairer on 24/2/2010 it is now 27/03/2010 and still the repairs have not been done. Meile Australia are not very professional as they do not offer any postive assistance and have still not supplied the parts for this machine to be repaired. We have to do all the chasing up. Not only that, it will cost about half the washing machines cost to repair. Now that is not fair since Meile’s website boasts free 5 year warranty at this time.
Very disappointed, My Meile washer is only 6 years old and I only do small loads once or twice a week and the repair man says it is broken beyond repair. Says “a bearing has gone bad-too bad”. Unacceptable for the price I paid.
we have our meile washing maching for 18 years. Heavy use. we are a family of four. they are now teenagers! we had two breakdowns. the first was about 3 years ago, a new control system (electronic). the second was recently, a new pump. I watched the fitter repair the machine each time. i am amazed at how easy it is to replace the parts. fantastic engineering.
