Depending on the size of the plates...if you think that dinner plates can be parked side by side then no. In my Miele LaPerla that I had , those racks are not very wide and short on depth. You have to remember that those European brands like Miele and Bosch have closer spacing between the tines so if your dishes are chunky, forgetaboutit...The Bosch I had here in this house while it cleaned well I found it lacking with capacity. Miele same thing.
Now that I have an LG dishwasher that I love I can put quite alot more dishes in the racks and everything comes out spotless and you can put dinner plates side by side in the lower rack...and still have room... | ||

g50006
I was looking at the G5006. I called Miele dealers within 50 miles, but the lead time was mid-April. So, it didn't work out for me.
I brought my dishes into my local Lowes and looked at quite a few models from different manufacturers. I wanted something with a simple 3 tier design like the Miele. I really liked the Whirlpool WDT750SAKZ as it ended up fitting my needs best. It will be delivered Sunday! | ||

Why is it that US dishwasher only have tines that spaced so far apart and also not angled? I though it might be because dishwasher in the past had to shoot water through the bottom rack up, thus there needed to be space(?) Or are thick plates that common? Looking at promo shots, it always looks to me as if there's still plenty of space between these plates.

Alex, thicker earthenware is far more common here. Of the 5 sets of dishes I have in my house (collected over time from early 1960s through late 1980s, only one set (bought in 1962) fits well in my Bosch. I have not tried the attempt to squeeze the other sets in the Bosch because there are pieces in each set that don't fit very efficiently and waste a bunch of space. Particularly the bowls used for cereal and soup.

I think we've got both extremes in the US (very thin, i.e. Corelle and very thick, i.e. Pfaltzgraff) where Europe is more represented in the middle (Ikea everyday and china). The Wirecutter (NYT version of Consumers Reports) made an interesting point that the European dishwashers (Bosch/Miele) have more variability in their tine sizing than the US (WP/GE/Frigidaire)--our Bosch handles Corelle and some fake Blue Willow well and efficiently but not some Dansk lipped stoneware which we've got, where GE and Whirlpool handle the Dansk well but aren't as efficient (optimally spaced tines) for the thinner Corelle
