Fredrik, I think your mom is right. I don't think that machine was available in the summer of 1975. What is the spinspeed of the machine? Personally I thought it was a W423 or a W431, all the W433 models (there were several W433 models) I know had a detergent dispenser on top. But I might be wrong and missed one or more models with the detergent dispenser on the front. Perhaps they were especially made for Scandinavia and perhaps the UK. That is just a speculation though.

We have the W770, which is from the 1980's or so and just love the machine to bits. All the clicks, and various sounds the washer makes as it goes about it's business are such fun. Yes, it holds 11lbs of laundry (less for delicates, and woolens of course), but built to last! Contacted Miele the other day about spare parts (was worried they might discontinue carrying them), and was surprised when the man told us not to worry, and that there were lots of these units still out there. Apparently one simply cannot kill these work-horses. Simple mechanical timer means no computer/motherboard to worry about. Very simple but highly efficient washing machines. Love the fact that they use a decent amout of water for washing and rinsing as well. Want my laundry to slosh about, not float like a wet wipe. L. | ||
