Which is better: Bosch or Miele washing machine?

There is no need to advertise German technology. Consumers have long been convinced of its reliability, ergonomics, and functionality. Questions arise, for example, when you need to choose a Bosch or Miele washing machine. Buyers trust both brands. Let’s figure out which of the two “Germans” is better to buy.

Bosch: quality or disappointment

There is no doubt about the quality of Bosch washing machines. Moreover, both the “economy” models and the most expensive washing machines are equally well assembled. The difference is that cheap equipment can wash things just fine, and the higher the price, the more bells and whistles the machine will have. Thus, expensive equipment will not only remove all dirt from the laundry, but will also notify you about the end of the cycle via SMS, automatically determine the optimal dosage of detergent, remove up to 99% of bacteria from fabrics due to active oxygen, etc.

The quality of washing and assembly of Bosch automatic machines is stable and does not depend on the cost of a particular model.

It is worth choosing Bosch due to the high wear resistance of the components. All main components of the machines are reliable. Drum bearings for washing machines Bosch are damaged extremely rarely, electronics almost never hang. This suggests that users of German washing machines will definitely not face expensive repairs in the next few years.

Of course, this “German” also has disadvantages that are worth voicing. The downside is the high cost of some components. Many non-standard parts, such as a dust filter cover or a locking mechanism, will have to be ordered from official brand representatives.The parcel will take a long time to arrive and will cost accordingly. In commutator models, the motor brushes periodically wear out. True, graphite rods are inexpensive, and you can replace them yourself.

Also, modern Bosch washing machines are very demanding on water quality. Therefore, before purchasing a machine, you will have to take care of a special filter installed in front of the machine’s inlet hose. And these are additional expenses.

If the choice is between automatic washing machines in the low or medium price segment, then you won’t find better than Bosch equipment. Both consumers and technicians involved in repairs of automatic equipment give this “German” the highest marks.

What is the quality of modern Miele?

The Miele company cares about its reputation and consumers, so it pays great attention to the diagnostics of washing equipment before its release. To ensure the highest quality of the clippers, the manufacturer tests each model through rigorous durability tests. This German brand is the best on the European market today, which undoubtedly affects the price of the equipment. Miele's machine will not be the cheapest household assistant.

It is quite difficult to talk about the individual advantages of Miele appliances, because almost everything about it is perfect.

The company pays great attention to user safety. Miele washing machines provide complete protection against leaks, including hose joints. All materials used in production are of the highest quality. We are talking about plastic, metal, rubber bands and so on. The tank is also particularly durable and hygienic. SMA Miele are characterized by minimal wear, good sound insulation, long service life.

The electronic control module also does not cause any complaints.However, the buyer needs to be aware that the machines are not adapted to voltage surges, which so often occur in Russian power grids. Therefore, in order to use the equipment for a long time, you should install a voltage stabilizer for the SM.

The disadvantage of Miele automatic washing machines can be considered the price. The cheapest machine will cost about $600, and on average, you will have to pay 120-140 thousand for the purchase. Not many people are willing to spend that kind of money on a washing machine. It is also worth considering that if something happens to the machine, repairs will not be cheap.

There will be no clear answer as to which is better to choose, Mila or Bosch. Machines from both brands meet the highest quality standards. You should focus on how much you are willing to pay for SMA. If the amount does not exceed $500, you definitely need to take a closer look at Bosch. Buyers who are not strapped for money can opt for Miele. Both manufacturing companies are admirable.
