I have a "waterproof System Activated" and I see bits of metal in the drain cleanout ... I am prepared to replace it. Stay Miele to match the old Dryer ? Something else better? Opinions? |

You could stay with the Miele brand but you will notice a big difference in the machine size compared to the dryer. I would not go with the Speed Queen since you would be spending close to the same amount of money for a washer that has no water heater and is not as reliable as one might think. You could go with Electrolux since the washer has a reversible door...something that the SQ washer lacks and it also uses a recirculation system that uses detergent very effectively and performs quite well. LG is another choice and they consistently rate at the top of Consumer Reports in all categories.
I had a Miele 4800 washer and the 9800 dryer and while I did like them when I got them, I wouldn't go down that road again. There is a reason why Miele discontinued them several years ago. Too many issues to say the least. Thats my opinion for what its worth. |
