Miele Dishwasher Problem
I have a ten year-old Miele dishwasher -- and a strange malfunction
happened last week. Even though the entire cycle was completed, the heating element stayed on (and at full intensity). Later that night, when I opened up the unit, the plastic wheels of the bottom rack had melted! I had to cut off the power source in order to get the unit to cool down, I have contacted Miele USA about the incident and I am awaiting their response. In the interim, has anyone else encountered this dangerous problem? |

Miele Dishwasher Problem
Not had that one yet. Thanks for the warning.
We moved into our new apartment about 6 months ago and inherited a Miele dishwasher that is probably the same vintage. The oven and microwave are probably the same age and work really well but I'm very disappointed with the dishwasher. It doesn't seem to hold as much as the Bendix we used to have and doesn't always get things as clean as it should. We're planning to redo the kitchen in the new year and a new dishwasher is on the list - Fisher & Paykel 2 drawer, which suits our lifestyle better. In the Australian summer I don't like leaving the dirty dishes in the dishwasher for a couple of days until it's full. The Miele dishwasher doesn't seem to have a rinse cycle only. > wrote in message oups.com... >I have a ten year-old Miele dishwasher -- and a strange malfunction > happened last week.

Miele Dishwasher Problem
I have a brand new Miele - well, 1 1/2 years old - and it also has a
top-wash only option. I've used it for small loads, and it works well, however I don't think that cleaning anything left on the bottom rack can be avoided (not that you'd want to... just citing my observation). On the whole, my Miele is the most quiet, best at filtering hard water, and best cleaning, dishwasher I've ever had. And, I hope I don't have to look forward to the heating problem the original poster is having with their older model.
