Miele W1 Series High Efficiency Stackable Extra small ( 2.26-cu ft ) Front Load Washer ( Lotus white )

Test your Appliance if buying at Lowes Outlet

This is a Lowes Review . That being said, the appliance DID NOT turn on. Lowes only gave 48 hrs to return in case of any problem. With my busy schedule I tried to install it 5 days later and found myself with the unpleasant surprise. It’s not easy to place a claim with The manufacture warranty. Now, I am waiting for Miele to assess the problem. That will be another week and if they determine it’s not factory problem I have to pay an additional $150 for the visit and $150 per hour for the tech...

High end front loader washing machine

After doing several dozen loads of laundry in the new Miele front loader ,I have many likes and very few disappointments . Right off the bat , this machine oozes quality and German engineering, while cleaning clothes really well. It runs super smoothly and quietly and does a great job of spinning out as much water as possible, which makes it quicker and more energy efficient to later dry the load . Setup was pretty straightforward and easy ( I did the install myself) , though this machine is qui...

Nice washer but please be aware...

I've only had this two days. Love it so far BUT be aware that the reviews that say it shook so much or made crazy noises or walked likely had the same poor "installation" I had. There are two steel posts about 1/4 up from the floor, possibly hidden behind 1x1 inch plastic tabs. These must come out before using. They are only to stabilize the drum during shipping. I'm posting this review sooner than I normally would because the "installers" from Lowes didn't do this and swore they'd set it up pr...

different but good

Overall I am happy with my new washer, 1 * off because the normal cycle is quite noisy during the wash cycle and the spin cycle sounds like a jet is trying to take off in my laundry closet. I usually cram my washer full, choose cold, high spin and the fastest cycle, because mostly nothing I wash is really dirty. Miele has an express cycle, which is 30 mins (20 if you select lightly soiled), high spin (not max) but recommends only a half load. I use the normal cycle for towels and sheets because ...

Miele--WXD160WCS 2.3 cu. ft.--Front Load Washer

Your installer did NOT remove the back shipping rods in the washer [needed]-causing it to vibrate so violently that it almost fell off our cabinet during a load of clothes-Luckily I was able to hold it. --so Had to return for the Miele Company [call required by your customer service] stated they would NOT honor their 2 year warrantee [before your 5 year service contract]--without it being installed by a Miele certified installer-which You are Not!! Not sure How to rate the Machine due to your ...

Efficient and High-Quality: With one minor issue

Compared to cheaper, more common US brands with planned obsolescence, this German-engineered washing machine is a gem, offering exceptional quality, advanced features, and unbeatable efficiency. The load adaption feature that adjusts cycle time and water usage and CapDosing for optimal fabric care are huge selling points. Tho relying on CapDosing for normal detergent appose to a bulk jug can get expensive, I typical only use CapDosing for specialty fabics like wools and jackets. The build qual...

Worth every penny

Having only lived with full sized American Washer & Dryer sets our whole lives, my wife & I were skeptical about the Miele W1 and T1 machines - we needed all electrical and a ventless dryer for a new condo we bought. These were definitely at the top of the price range, and in the store sitting next to the bigger models we just weren't sure these would deliver value. But having lived with them now for 4 months, i can endorse these well-made, solid, and excellent machines - you won't be able to wa...

Compact and Easy to Use

Overall, great dryer from Miele. Got the washer with no venting (heat pump) dryer combo. The size is compact and the overall dimensions are smaller than the typical washers but it's really easy to fit into any room or laundry room or under the kitchen countertops. The washer seems to be well-built and very heavy unit. The set up is really easy and it comes with the water/draining hoses for installation. Recommend getting the pedestal or stacking kit so you can have a good loading/unloading heigh...

Small but Mighty

Really pleased with the capacity and features of this washer. I have a compact space available for my washer and dryer so finding a set that both met the size requirements and offered all of the features I was looking for was a challenge. I was initially worried about being able fit my usual load size, but it hasn’t been a problem even with king sheet sets and large bath towels. The washer is remarkably quiet too. One pro tip though: you definitely need to read the user manual first. It is easy ...

Compact and effective washing machine

I had always heard good about Miele products. This washing machine stands true to it. It is compact, a bit smaller in size. The machine is sturdy and comes with lots of different cycle settings. The machine doesn’t make much sound. Also can be started from any where as it has mobile start. It can connect to your home Wi-Fi. . It doesn’t use much detergent. It was very to get it installed. I have installed it in my master bedroom closet . Both the washer and dryer stacked perfectly . It doesn’t g...
