Overpriced junk I never had a Miele dishwasher before it owned, but I had heard the hype: cleans great, super-quiet, saves water, etc. So I bought one and found that most of the hype is true. First, it is not so quiet. I would not call it strong, but not quieter than my old Kenmore was half the price. It is not very flat. I do not understand how a Miele dishwasher standard size and made them hold only 2 / 3 of the dishes from my old Kenmore, but somehow they did. The shelves just stinks. But worst of all, this is ugly dishwasher for cleaning. In a typical load of dirty dishes (no hand washing), 6-10 articles can not be cleaned. Offenders are the plates of the foreground and background on the bottom rack, all the plate in the upper (third) rack and cut down. They end up with bits of food. Remember, I am not a novice, a dishwasher load, and I followed the models recommended in the instructions. Simply put, the cleaning capacity of the worst I've seen in a modern dishwasher, as this is also the most expensive machine that I ever owned, it is bad. I had the machine checked by a Miele service technicians, who found nothing wrong. So I used the Miele "love it or return" policy, but I got my money back and bought a KitchenAid KUDE70CVSS for a few hundred dollars less. You can also read my review of KUDE70CVSS from Amazon. (Hint: the title is: "This dishwasher rocks !!!") pricey but worth it. Works well I bought eight months ago to be replaced and el cheapo unit from Costco that came with the house we bought. After a good and very hard water, there were not many dishwashers that have a built in water softener, many of the German units do (including Bosch), I can not remember why I chose this over Bosch, but I am very happy with. The carriers are very flexible and are painted stainless steel, which means that when the paint peels off the trays, you will not see rust is cool? So far it has eaten a box of salt in about 7 months. I experimented a bit 'cleaner of the electrosol sign with the ball in the middle that works better, but I will try another brand later. There are a couple of handfuls I have to say. There is a one-digit numeric LED on the front and a group of status LEDs, the only time that the number of LED performance is when using the dishwasher timer that is useless for me, because this thing is so freaking calm . programming the amount of salt and rinse is abit of a joke, to return to the numerical results. instead of giving you the actual number, count the number of "flashes the status light! wow. stupid very stupid. Regarding advertising reprogrammability of the group - I'm not sure why I even need this if HDMI is not exactly the rules is to maintain a revolving freaking dishwasher. ;) @ $ 1500 A purchase is difficult for us but it was pretty good so far. If you have hard water, rather than buy a water softener all home, you can buy this dishwasher or some of the Bosch / Thermodor (same company). I could not find an American who has made dishwashers built in, otherwise I would have had a Maytag or GE. Overall great unit, very quiet. driving while watching TV, no problem at all. My last unit before we moved was a Maytag, it was pretty noisy, I always have time to run 5 or 6 in the morning, so he should not have heard clunking away ..
