The older Kitchenaid dishwashers had what LG calls quad wash. The bottom impeller is shaped different than that of the Kitchenaid dishwashers say for example from the 1980's. I say this because we had one and it cleaned everything superbly. Ours had three wash arms and didn't take forever to wash and dry. Ours was from the 1980's and it the Kitchenaid Superba Mark VI. Im not knocking the LG, but credit is due where it is due.
Miele is terrific from an engineering and quality feel perspective. They are quiet and offer great dishwashing performance. But….be prepared to pay a lot up front and know the repair costs (Parts pricing) are quite high. I’m staring down the barrel at a $700+ repair now on my 2015 Miele. This is after a $500 repair in 2020. Not impressed with Miele reliability, parts pricing, nor parts availability. The 20 year life expectancy is a pipe dream. Next one will be a Bosch.
If you have a big budget... Miele is awesome if you go with the higher level models however if you want something very very close... go with the top of the line LG's they are just as good... Asko is also awesome... I have had all of them... and I can't fault any of them except cheap Miele is very very blah!!! Bosch is just confusing... and never really offers all the features I want... Althought the quality is great too... I have both of their series 8 washing machine and heat pump driers and love them...
Meile has a twenty-year guarantee I have an older style Meile washing machine that's had everything thrown at it. It's over twenty years old. Never had anything wrong with it
Our first Miele lasted 9 yrs. Our second one is kaput at 6 yrs. Of course we had the 5 yr warranty. The repair price is not worth it. It makes more sense to replace.
@@susanvelon8405 it’s a shame these companies have designed their products so it’s cost prohibitive to repair. We “invested” in another Miele but I suspect this one will be toast soon after the 5 year warranty expires. They certainly don’t build them to last 20 years like they claim.
Miele no questions ask. I Loved my Aunts dishwashers she entertains alot and has two commercial units in her house.. I loved them 100 gallons a minute went through those wash arms 30 mins and there done. I could not afford those but, I got the entry level Miele and it screams quality. I have had it for 6 years and not one issue. They make everything that goes in there dishwashers even the motors. That's why there $$$$ . I paid 1200 for mine which considering there made to last twice as long is a great deal. I have a Miele front load washer my Mom gave me in 2006 and its still working perfect.
I'll consider BOSCH. My KitchenAid is now 21 years old and one day it will eventually go on the fritz beyond repair. I use it once a week but age still can make it less reliable overall.

Bosch 300..500…800. The best. The 300 we have had for 3 years with it running every 3 days and it does well and so far no repairs.

Consider yourself lucky. You’ll be lucky to get 5-7 years out of a new Miele. They don’t build em like they used to
