Hi all It's time to get out all your Miele's, Bosch, AEG, Bauknecht and any other german makes. I think most will agree that Germany have produced some great and well built machines. My personal favorites are early AEG's and Miele. Here are some pics to get us started. Happy viewing Rob First pic is a 1990s Bauknecht. This machine was brilliant, very well made and sturdy. |

Hello Rob, I'm afraid I have to disagree with you on the Bauknecht quality. My brother and SIL had almost the same machine, just a different spinspeed (1100rpm). It was a machine from hell. In the first year it was already repaired three times and afterwards several times too until it was 4 years old. Then it needed a very expensive repair (around 500 Euros. Bauknecht first refused to pay for it, but after confronting them with all the other repairs and the possibility of a law suit they gave in and it was repaired yet another time. The machine worked for another year and then broke down again. Fed up with the Bauknecht washing machine (and also because of several problems with the matching dryer) they decided to replace it with an AEG (and matching dryer). Unfortunately my brother and SIL weren't the only ones with problems with Bauknecht machines. I know several other people who also had difficulties with their Bauknecht products. And all of those people swear they will never buy another Bauknecht product again. A recent consumer review also made clear that Bauknecht was the brand that was repaired more often than any other brand (which is not a top score by the way, it doesn't count when machines are replaced.

This is my W423 from 1978 that I found at a recycling centre. It gave me 12 months trouble free washing until the timer failed. I can get a new timer from Miele and probably will, but I'm baulking at the $450 pricetag. |
