I wonder if this is some kind of joke. The add (on Craigslist Tel Aviv) describes this as a Mieler Austrian dryer. It's 4 years old and in good condition. It doesn't look at all like a Miele, but the name Mieler is written in a very similar font as Miele uses. Only difference is that it is in red.

That is Chinese made, I've seen it similar on Amazon.com for the American market on a 120V version, should be a total crap! :D |

It's sold here under various names. All seem to be the same in operation.
Here's one on ebay's US site. CLICK HERE TO GO TO tecnopolis's LINK on eBay |

Thank you all! I had a browse on Amazon.com, I noticed Avanti has one too. I guess it was a joke to put Mieler on that machine. What's next? Mielest? lol
I guess this is the video Alex wanted to share: CLICK HERE TO GO TO foraloysius's LINK |

i always think it is funny when this kind of attempt to cash in on a known good brand comes along, i remember in 1970s several hi quality hi-fi companies had there names tweeked on some inferior product.
and now of course with the chinese buying up every available name and sticking it on any bit of old tosh its going to be rife |

Is not at all unusual here.
Every European sized dryer made or designed here has been able to wall mounted - generally upside down at that. Dryers from Simpson, Electrolux (not the European ones), Fisher and Paykel, Westinghouse and Hoover (older style) are all wall mountable. CLICK HERE TO GO TO ronhic's LINK |
