Customer reviews and
ratings
Reviews
on the Miele
washer dryerare
mixed. One Californian claims that his washer collects
water, leaving a layer of mold on the interior. In
addition, he says that both the washer and the dryer are
extremely loud, so much that they disrupt everyday living
if the washer dryer are placed indoors. However, a
Colorado man touts the convenience and easy of the washer
and the dryer. He says they are both easy to use, and
they have a high capacity, making it easier and quicker
to wash and dry large amounts of laundry. The washer
dryer set can make your life easier, in that you do not
have to go out or send out to have your clothes get
cleaned.
Some users like the fact
that Miele washers are front load washers, which means
they use less water. Some people even said that their new
purchase qualified them for a tax break because the
washers are more efficient than older models.

Where to buy a Miele washer dryer
set
If you prefer to shop
online and buy a new set, you want to make sure you buy
your set from an online retailer that is a Miele
Authorized Internet Dealer. That way, you can be sure the
warranty from the manufacturer will be valid. Purchasing
from an unauthorized dealer can mean you are getting used
machines or unwarranted machines. If you are looking for
a used machine, you want to thoroughly inspect it before
purchasing it. Washers and dryers can be expensive to
repair, especially if you have no warranty to back you
up.
The Abt website
specializes in electronics, and this site is a Miele
Authorized Internet Dealer. You can find both washers and
dryers here. Although there is not a discount for buying
both a washer and a dryer, some items qualify for free
shipping, which could save you money in the long run,
rather than having to pay for the machines to be
delivered to you from a brick and mortar store. The Ira
Woods website is another authorized dealer. This website
also offers free shipping on some orders, and they often
have coupons, like an additional 5% savings on your
order. While 5% may not seem like a lot at first, if you
are buying a $4000 set, you would save $200.
When it
comes to large electronics like washers and dryers, you are
sometimes better off shopping in an actual store. As previously
mentioned, you can sometimes get a special deal in stores when
you are buying a combination Miele washer
dryer.In
addition, in an actual store, you will have a representative
who can answer all your questions, make suggestions and
recommendations, and help inform you about the appliances'
warranties. Stores will also sometimes offer free
delivery.
Miele has several
showrooms across the United States that showcase many of
their electronics, including their washers and dryers.
These can be found from Princeton, NJ to Dallas, TX to
San Francisco, CA. In addition, the Miele website
features a dealer locator that allows you to type in your
zip code and find the Miele dealer closest to you. There
are dealers in almost every state in the US, and there
are also several in Canada.
Overall,
despite some negative reviews here and there, most people tend
to enjoy the Miele
washer dryer. Before
you decide to buy a set, you should research and find out which
combination is best for you. From there, you can figure out how
to get the best value for your money by looking at pricing from
several different places. Several of the websites feature price
comparison tools that let you compare several different models
side by side to see what features they share and where they
differ. When doing your comparison shopping, be sure to take
into consideration things like shipping, tax, delivery, and
setup charges. These can all make a big difference in your
final cost. As long as you take care of your set and follow the
manufacturer's instructions, you will be able to keep your set
years to come.
