So, just checked Mieles website, they launched their new washer dryers for the new energy label and overhauled them as well.

The base machines appear to be the same size and technology wise.

However they all have been upped in rated capacity.
The 7/4 versions are now 8/5 in the same chassis, 8/5 is now 9/6.



Biggest upgrade are the controls.

The entry model has the new one line display with the TwinDos/Eco-Quick buttons becoming Timed/Sensor dry.

Wash, Dry or Wash&Dry are now selected via the display previous to the other selections.


Upper machines are now M-Touch.




Eco 40-60 is now on them as well.

Already noticed something strange:
Full load drying separate to Eco 40-60 washing uses the same as Eco 40-60 non-stop yet takes significantly longer.

Which is weired.

Still don't know if non-stop does any kind of full speed spin or if all spins are limited due to the (IMO somewhat stupid) laundry ring prevention.





But nice to see M-Touch make an entry.

Makes usage much more easy with the heaps of options you have on those machines.

Oh, and given you get TwinDos as well as M-Touch as an upgrade for 200€ would definitely go that route if you are already pay that much for a washer-dryer.

40-60 Eco Mix

Is a farce far as one is concerned.

My AEG/Electrolux has three hours and fifteen minutes (3:15) for that cycle, and I for one just don't have that kind of time for one load of washing.

Ironically that is same amount of time allotted for "Energy Savings" wash that does (supposedly) 60 C wash using less water (and thus less energy to heat), but takes ages...

they do look wonderful and it's nice to see the touchscreen on them too, I've always found Miele washer dryers to be a bit quirky with the rear drum holes and the large sensor plate on the door, at least they've made them smaller so you can get a better view of the load in action, still expensive but will no doubt be great machines that will last for ages. :)

I've had too many bad experiences with washer-dryers in rental apartments over the years to even consider one to be a useful appliance.

 

I'm sure Miele does a better job than most, but the majority of them are simply useless as dryers.

 

Unless you're EXTREMELY short of space, it should be possible to slot in a dryer somewhere.

Most washer-dryers I used were ok, nothing amazing.

But most times I honestly just recomend a stack, usually there is space above the washer.

the dryer part in the washer dryer actually performs well if you don't overfill them, my sister and her partner has a Candy Alize model from 2017 and it performs rather well as a dryer with a ThermoSpin about 20 minutes into the cycle, and the stuff comes out just fine with minimal creasing, so it's just a bit of trial and error when using them. :)
