No other manufacturer tests as strenuously
as Miele.
Miele has been awarded the winner of many
of the tests carried out for laundry appliances
by the Stiftung Warentest Institute in
Germany. In the UK, Miele was awarded the
‘Best Domestic Appliance Brand’ accolade
at the annual Which? Awards in 2010 for a
record third time. Miele washing machines
have also received an award for "Best
Washing Machine Brand" in Australia in 2011
from an independent consumer watchdog
magazine.
German engineered and tested to the
equivalent of 20 years usage.
All Miele Laundry appliances are German
engineered and tested to last the equivalaent
of 20 years usage. A test by the wfk Institute
for Laundry Research in Krefeld, Germany
confirms this. The test was carried out on
washing machines from six different
manufacturers. The result: only the three
Miele washing machines passed the
functional test. Miele's own endurance tests
involve appliances being operated day and
night.
