Hi all, I'm thinking about buying the Miele Prem 520. I like the look of this and my budget can just about stretch to the 499.95 price tag. Miele seem to be a good quality manufacturer - even though I'm getting one at the lower end of the Miele scale, would the forum regard it as a good buy. Thanks in advance for your comments Regards Dave

Does anyone have a rough idea of its weight as I need to arrange delivery of one. I am guessing around 70kg-90kg???? The Miele website doesnt list the weights! Thanks

Miele Washing Machine Review

At last, I've finally finished my latest Miele washing machine review. It took me a few months because of shifting priorities and a bad habbit I have of tending to work on many different projects at the same time and constantly chipping away at them instead of sticking to one thing until completed. I also decided to complicate the review by shooting and editing some video for the first time. Here's the actual review - Miele W3740 review

I am currently the proud owner of a Miele W 3740 washing machine. Look out for a big review of it soon (I'll post a link here when it's ready) In the mean time anyone interested in buying a Miele W 3740 should be aware that many sites say there is a 24 hour delay start function on this washing machine and there definitely isn't. The Miele site now has the corrected version of the specifications but many retailing sites have copied this erroneous fact and still display it. Edit Here is the review - Miele W 3740 review

New Miele W 3740 Owner

As luck would have it, our 12 year old Zanussi Jetsystem decided to violently announce its sickness a few days before we went away, making a serious banging sound on fast spin. my wife had Premier Electric out and they changed the hole-y drive belt, but a few days later, it happened again, this time a bit more terminally. After taking some part-washed items to some friends for rinsing and spinning , we had a closer look and suspected the bearings, since the drum was scraping around on the tub. When we got back, we paid a visit to John Lewis to look at some Bosches and Siemens. I'd spent some time on this website beforehand, as I always like to know more than the sales …

Levelling Machine

Do you have to exactly level the machine for optimum use? I have just purchased a W3922 and it is level front to back, but slightly out side to side. Will this make a difference. By the way, Excellent machine. The old adage, you only get what you pay for springs to mind with these machines. The build quality is outstanding and performance superb, very quiet.

How Quiet Are The Miele W3240 / W3364Wps

Can anyone advise how quiet these two machines are, Miele’s website only gives insulation levels not decibels. We are comparing these with Siemens similar priced machines and they give decibel levels on their site. Both manufacturers are offering 10 year guarantees on various models (offer expires end Jan (Siemens) and end Feb (Miele) Have tried Kelko for comparisons on noise but these models didn’t appear to be listed. Any information would be greatly appreciated on the above and comparisons of build quality. Many thanks.

After hassle with cheap washing machines that don't last I've decided to get a W3240/A. Since we've decided to bite the bullet Currys have never had any in stock! Quite frustrating but we can wait... we have vouchers so are tied to them. It seems to be available elsewhere online but Comet has no stock either I noticed. Is this model being phased out or just very popular ?

well was thinking of going out next week to buy the w3740 however just read the manual on the miele site and they say that they do not recommend the use of installed water softeners - we have one of these and have always used it with our other washing machines therefore we don't get any lime scale etc - does anyone know why miele don't recommend them ?.. dave

Miele W3922wps V W3824wps

As a new member of Washerhelp my wife and I are looking for some guidance. Having had a variety of washing machines over the years, non of which were particularly reliable except for a very basic Indesit we bought about 40 years back which lasted about 16 years, 6 of which were washing for a new baby. We have finally decided on a Miele but can't decide on which one. The W3922 & W3824 both seem to fit the bill but I am tempted by the Professional motor and the load size/ dispensing on the W3922, however it does seem to have bells and whistles that we don't need. It seems that the W3824 might be a later addition to the range and looks simpler to use. The program that…

Washer/dryer Foot

hi all I managed to get myself a Miele washer/dryer WT2670 at a fabulously low price because one of the feet is missing. I've been through the parts sites listed here plus a couple of others I found. They didn't have the feet listed so I left a request with them, but haven't had a reply from them since (7 days) and the machine arrives next Sunday. I'm thinking a foot missing is a major problem right from the start I went to a local store and had a look at the feet on the same model and they were exactly the same as a couple of different brands of machine. I'm wondering if my best option, and with time running out before the machine arrives, is to find a repair sho…

Hi Folks My first post - just like to say that I find this website such an excellent resource - reliable trustworthy advice from Mr WasherHelp and real-life experiences from the other forum members. We need a new washing machine that goes under the counter in our new house because the Whirlpool AWT5108 (toploader) has been stuck in the middle of the utility room floor since we moved in 2+ years ago. It really is time I did something about it and what with the cost of modifying the worktops - might as well buy a front loader and stick it under the worktop. It's gotta be a Miele because we love them. It doesn't need to be fancy. Having read the advice on WasherHelp we pl…

As I mentioned in my first post I've justhad first ever problem with my W980 mile washing machine. I would'nt be a bit surprised if the engineer says death by limescale. We moved to North Norfolk about 5 years ago and the water is hurrendous, even compared to Norwich. I use the Tesco limescale prevention tablets every wash and oko magnet ball thingy as well. I was wondering if there's anything else I could or should be doing ? I noticed last night when reading through the intruction manual for the W980 that I have been putting the limescale tab and washig tablets thingys in the wrong order , aprently meile say detergent first lime scale treatment next.

Miele Videos Make Miele Sound Noisy On Youtube

If you see a video of a Miele washing machine, chances are it will sound noisier than it really is. After filming my own Miele washing machine in the course of writing a new review, I can confirm that videoing washing machines amplifies the sound and is therefore very unreliable as a guide to how quiet a washing machine is. I just filmed my Miele W 3740 washing machine to demonstrate how quiet it was, but the resulting video made the Miele sound noisy when it is in fact the quietest washing machine I've ever seen. I believe that the way video cameras record sound accounts for this. First they tend to have directional microphones which focuses on the area directly in fron…

Does anyone know if the LEDs remain lit when washing (providing a washing spectacular show, or unspectacular depending what's in the wash )? - or if they only come on when loading and unloading? and if the Silent Professional Motors of these machines are quieter for the £200+ quid step up from the W3240? I'm confused as what to get, I think I've discounted AEG, I thought I was going to get the W1512 for £430, then saw the 10 year guarantees on the above said models. W3240 is £634, so £200 more but with a 10 year warranty, which makes the W1512 seem poor value. The W3922 is about £833 so another £200 more than the W3240, but with LEDs and Silent Pro Motor and the …

Hi Had my new Miele W524 Prestige Plus, (John Lewis exclusive) delivered 4 days ago. So far I can report it's great, have done various loads, and it's quiet, and cleans well. Rock solid during the fastest spin (1300 rpm). It's so nice to have a machine that doesn't stop mid-cycle as my 7 year old Bosch had been doing for 6 months!!

We all know that Miele produce some fantastic washing machines and the after care is like being smothered by a thick feather duvet! Did you know thay also make Dishwashers, Tumble Dryers, Ovens, Hobs and other househld essentials? I know this site is entitled "Washerhelp" but I was wondering if this forum could digress into commenting on Mieles other appliances too?? I have just refitted my kitchen and in addition to my Miele WT2670 washer dryer I now have a Miele H4640 oven, a KM548 hob and a DA446 chimney hood. All look very smart and I am very pleased with them. I knew they wouldnt be a disappointment. Now the motto "anything else is a compromise" sticks with me and…

Original Or New Improved Miele Design?

Miele have two designs of machine. One I call the "New Improved". The second "Original". What design do you prefer? For me I don't think I can never tire of the Original design and this would sway me to a machine in this style over the new lineup. It's the polishable chrome of even shape and classic control fascia with the illuminated "orange eclipse" control knob that melts my heart every time! ;o)

My much loved w980 miele washer has just gone seriously wrong for the first time in the 10+ years I have had it. Ive done all the usual things (cleaned the filter, cleaned dispenser tray etc, and checked the drain), but it's not happy so first thing in the morning I will getting onto the Miele service dept. Has any one else had any problems with a machine of this age? I have to say that despite this hiccup and the potential cost I still think that the £1100 I spent on this machine was best money ever spent; My poor old machine does anything between 7 and 20 loads a week and we live in North Norfolk where the water ishard beyond belief (most appliences just commit su…

A while ago I posted that I was having problems with my 11 year old MieleW980 washing machine. While waiting for the lovely man from Miele who sorted everything outfor me I decided to re read the instruction manual. I have discovered that pressing several buttons at once I can access programme features additional to the ones shown on the no nonsense dial. I have now programmed the machine to start by flushing both of the draws in the powder tray. This has been very useful as we live in an extremely hard hardwater area. I now put some powder and a small amount of soda in the prewash tray (which flushes first) and thenput the rest of the powder and a limescale prevention…

For those who have registered for the FREE Miele 10 year warranty, (currently underwritten by Domestic & General Services Ltd) do you get any confirmation that they have processed it? It would be helpful if you state which approximate year you registered (so I can tell if it was 9 years ago or 1 year ago) I'm about to send it off via a recordable/trackable method, and was wondering if you get some sort of paperwork back, perhaps a simple welcome and policy booklet?
