Terrible life span - expensive to replace parts that don't last more than 4 years!

published

We bought a Miele KM5974 Induction 8 years ago assuming a 'top' brand would last the time.
4 years in we had our first'control board' damage ($700 repairs!) and now have the same issue 4 years later ($1000!) - same error FE35! Pathetic for someone who doesn't really use it that often!! WASTE OF MONEY

Where has Miele’s quality control gone?

Motor needs replacing in Miele washing machine still under warranty. Refused request to replace machine and have to wait over 2 weeks for parts.
Not built to last. No longer a Miele customer.

Steer clear

Thought I was buying a quality product. Just out of warranty and the seal on the door has split so leaks on the floor. Really disappointed. Staff on phone unhelpful.

Unreliable products, what happened Miele?

published

Very disappointing. Use to be one of the top brands for appliances. Used all their products for our townhouse development of three units (dishwashers, rangehoods, ovens, dishwashers, stove etc... One of the unit's dishwasher broke down right before 2 years. My own rangehood just broke down, 2 months outside warranty unfortunately. Called up Miele and wasn't very nice about it despite using them all the time. Waiting for a technician now and possibly $179 out of pocket just for them to attend.

Miele used to be able to last 10 years, not breaking down at the 2 year mark.

Update. Miele managed to resolve the issue for me. Thank you.

Terrible product and terrible customer service!

Regret I did not read reviews here before the purchase of my dishwasher. The dishwasher I received was faulty upon receipt and it has stopped working totally 9 days after. All these days, no one from Miele has ever cared and I was even told the first problem I had was normal.

Low quality Vacuum cleaner product and even worse customer service

published

Low quality vacuum cleaner that stopped working a little over warranty, and both retailer and manufacturer washed their hands under the excuse of expired warranty. No help from customer service as they want customer to pay for equipment inspection as much the amount as one can purchase a new product. Do not be fooled by brand name. Never buy a Miele product.

MieleW1 TwinDos XL and Wifi connects Washing machine

published

This machine washes perfectly. The Twin Dos is a fantastic feature. i'm surprised that Miele fail to offer a service to re use the detergent dispenser, especially being manufactured in Germany, a country well ahead of most in ensuring that plastics don't end up in landfill. It would be great if Miele were able to organise a service to return and reuse. Then I would be happy to give a 5 star rating!

Buyer beware!

I have a miele washing machine and dishwasher and both have been in need of repair. The dishwasher has been repaired twice and the washing machine is a nightmare. It does not wash properly and clothes are partly dry after being washed. I've had it repaired but i still have partly dry clothes! I now have to spend another $179 to have someone try to fix this again. This machine has never washed properly, both appliances have been a problem. I bought miele believing it would be trouble free and go the distance. I would not buy miele again and certainly would not sing their praises. Expensive and a huge disappointment.

One of the best Customer Service experiences I've had

published

Not actually one to leave a review but have a C3 powerline vacuum and needed to change filters. The website is not really consumer friendly when shopping for filters for these units and was super confused. Spoke to one of their customer service team members, Kieran (Spare parts 1300 464 353) and it was all sorted within a few minutes, both confusion and also with parts sent out asap foc as they should have been included in the dust bag box (not usually sold separately unless you upgrade to a Hepa Filter). Parts I needed were the Air Clean filter.

Poor response rate to service query

published

Place on online request for a service call to fix a gas cook top two days ago but no response. How do I know when I will get a response three days, 2 weeks or a month. Totally unacceptable.

This is a poor method of answering service enquiries. It would be more customer friendly if you could speak to a real person and they could book a technician to come out.

Service fee $170 to write a report

published

My poor parent are pensioners who bought their dishwasher years ago For $3000 & have had multiple issues over the years. They gave paid to have the machine fixed oonly because they spent so much money on it that it like gambling. So dad presses a button & suddenly now the dishwasher wont work error F42. to have someone come out will cost them $170 (30min)& $30-40 for every 15min after that.
Just so someone can write a report. They just dont gave the money to waste.
2years should they spent $800on it.
They dont even uses it everday.

They are better off getting a $800 machine with would do the same job, better customer service. Cost less to maintain.

So dont waste you money, your not getting Quilty with them.

I used to love Miele in the UK but have bought 4 brand new machines and I am so disappointed.

published

We have been a dedicated Miele customer for years. My entire home in the UK is equipped with Miele appliances, and have never had to question the quality once.

We have recently moved to Perth, Western Australia and we took ownership of 2 washing machines (WWV980WPS $4,499 and WCR870WPS $3,299) and 2 tumble dryers (TWV680WP $4,499 and TCR870WP $3,999). The washing machines are fantastic but we have a problem with both of the tumble dryer machines. Miele sent out a senior technician who advised me that the noisy heat exchanger is normal and there is nothing that can be done. I simply cannot accept that Miele would be happy for their "top of the range" machines to sound like a 20 year old refridgerator.

Questions & Answers

Sandi B.

Sandi B.asked

In Feb 2022 I purchased the WKH 132 WPS 9kg Twin Dos washing machine. Initially the clothes came out smelling worse than when they went in but it transpires that the technically advanced automatic machine has to be manually told to use the built in detergents. By manually selecting the 'Dos' button every wash the smell has resolved however the clothes are not particularly clean. Despite routinely separating colours, darks and whites every time my whites are grey and dull. The service technician has been twice and runs diagnostics checks, tweaking the settings, but the problem remains and my frustration grows. I would like to know if Miele could consider an alternative response or advise me of my options.

Hi Sandi, thanks for your questions and apologies for any issues you are having. Confirming you are selecting whites vs colours as the twin dos system does dispense a different ratio of ultraphase1 and ultraphase2 dependant on that selection and then different amounts dependant on the soiling level selected. We recommend you book a service call using https://www.servicebooking.miele.com.au or if you have any questions don't hesitate to call us on 1300 464 353 (please be aware these contact methods are for Australia only). Kind regards, Jack.

Hi Jack, I can confirm I select whites for white load. Do you think a third service call will help?
