I BROKE A MIELE TODAY!!!!! Went to ~Comet to check out the new Miele Komfort models they have in and i broke one. Tried to locate filter door tool to open the drum and being eyed up by a salesperson I tried to locate the hinge of the filter door so i could push it in and open it quickly. Like breaking the balance if you know what i mean. And the whole filter door got wedged in the recess it sits in. Have to say these machines are very plasticky and the door whilst being strong the plastic cover on it is very flimsy IMHO. I left Comet after the sales person tried to make me buy a MEE LAY as he said it lol although to make it look as though i was not a trouble maker I said I was weighing up between a Miele and something else costing less. He pointed me to a £250 Bosch on offer which i had to laugh at and told him about Jons mums (didnt mention names just said somebody i knew) he backed off instantly so maybe staff training and customer comments are being utilised etc. I told him more about Miele than he knew which was funny. well for my night off things are not going well. burnt my treat of a pizza whilst posting stuff here so it looks like my bottle of Sainsburys 2005 Corbieres (bargain at £2.99, nice fruity, easy drinking red) will nourish me tonight, cant be arsed cookin anything else, who wants a glass??????

crikey hijacked my own thread there! Not bad from someone who generally dosnt drink. Well yes Jon hopefully miele will address this as im sure they will. MIELES ROCK and im looking forward to the day i receive mine, lol. The door was the one thing that put me off. I would be scared of bashing the hoover into it or something and cracking the plastic. And im not too fussed on having that protective heat cover on doors as i like to check on boil washes the water does heat up. Keeps me in my comfort zone. Although having said that i know you can "smell" a boilwash in the air i like to sense both. Lol im CRaZy nick.

BUT i do rate my old Zanussi Condensor which me ex kept along with the washer as settlemnt for the split (bitch) lol. Was the basic model available at about £220 usually. We got it in a Powerhouse sale in November for £199. I never understand why people dislike tumble dryers so much and dont have them. Life would not be the same without one. Nick |
