Ok so I have a choice of 3 machines...
Option 1: Miele W1 WDD020 - 8KG - 5 year warranty - £791-£899 ao.com/product/wdd020-miele-w1-wa... Manufacturer page: www.miele.co.uk/domestic/... Option 2: Fisher & Paykel WM1490F1 - 9KG - 5 year warranty - £799-£999 ao.com/product/wm1490f1-fisher-pa... Manufacturer page: www.fisherpaykel.com/asia... Option 3: AEG 6000 Series L6FBG141R - 10Kg - £599 -ao.com/product/l6fbg141r-aeg-6000... Manufacturer page: www.aeg.co.uk/laundry/laundry/was... I just cant decide which to get, the Miele is the most reliable and heavy of all 3 machines, the AEG holds the largest load. The F&P machine has the vortex wash where it will spin once during the wash with the soapy water in and would be fun to watch but is prob just a gimmick as the Miele still has an A rated wash performance. The F&P also has a direct drive motor on the back of the drum. The Miele has a brushless new style motor and is tested for 20 years use. At the moment I am thinking Miele as they are strong, robust etc. Forgot to add that this machine is free in return for a full review I get to keep the machine. It will be replacing my Maytag MAF8805AES - 6kg machine. Thank you | ||

Miele
Richard
As I read you email you are getting the Miele for free/ Tell them I will do a review if they want to give me one for free too. My daily driver Miele was pretty much bottom of the range but it is now in its 14th year and still running well - it has not missed a beat in all that time. For me it would be a no brainer Al | ||

I just can't decide. They both come with 5 year warranty but the f&p no where displays them so I can't go see them.
The Miele without a doubt will be made like a tank but plain and simple. I like the F&P machine but the videos on YouTube of another model suggest the vortex wash thing only runs once during the cottons 40 cycle. | ||

Speed Queen fan here:
All of their machines are truly Laundromat/Commercial grade and would handsomely outlast any of the other machines shown. It should last 30 plus years in domestic use. If you can find a laundry equipment dealer that can get you one. (I know SQ is sold in England)that is the road I would take. Just know being an American machine it will need to be connected to hot water if you want to do hot or warm washes.

I have the Mile Touchtronic and got it at the dump seven years ago. I replaced the mother board,detergent drawer and rubber feet. After calling their customer service telling them I was restoring it, they GAVE ME THE PARTS FREE AND SENT A TECH TO DO THE REPAIRS!!!! It has worked flawlessly ever since. Great model with lots of programs.
