New dishwasher, fridge & freezer

Postby curryman » Fri Apr 08, 2005 2:26 pm

After posting here ~6 months ago regarding a new washing machine I was adviced to get a Miele. I can say my wife and I are very pleased with it. It is the most well built whitegood I have ever owned and the 10yr warrenty is great.

Anyway, since you were all helpful last time I'd like you advice again on some other new machines we need (all undercounter <85cm high, freestanding).

New dishwasher (slimline), fridge and freezer.

Now I am tempted to buy Meile again for the d/w but for the fridge and freezer they are expensive (I have owned an inexpensive Bosch f/f for years with now problems) and I am not sure if their good reputation extends to fridges or freezers.

Total budget around 900.

Any advice or thoughts welcome.

With that budget you could purchase Miele fridge and freezer. Remember to measure gap available for fridge and freezer as you can purchase 55cm or 60 cm in most makes nowadays. Bosch slimline dishwasher should do the trick as Miele do not produce one. You will still have money left over as well :D

Let us know the outcome

I think you will need a large budget. The lifetime costs are high. Consider the following. I had one for 4 and a half years. It cost
£750 purchase
£180 for the sensor to be replaced
£360 in spoilt food and professional cleaning bills
£199 for a new Bosch to replace it with after the controls went mad
£420 in spoilt food and professional cleaning bills

I only bought it because I had Miele appliances in the rest of the kitchen that hadn't gone wrong (yet).
