Total Adressable Market is the nerds who care, i.e. barely anybody.
- adhesive_wombat 4y agoMiele gouge like hell on spares, a new door for my fridge-freezer costs about as much as the entire unit, including 2 doors, did. The door cover is maybe one of the top things to want replacing on a fridge. Also the plastic door trays are clearly suffering from "material use optimisation" because the hinges break off due to insufficient material support. On the other side, the thing is still working, but it's only been 8 years. But I do agree about the TAM, which is why it's contingent on being an idle billionaire.
- scrlk 4y agoFWIW Miele refrigeration products are made by Liebherr and many are rebadged for Miele. You might be able to find an equivalent Liebherr product and save money by buying the Liebherr part instead.
- adhesive_wombat 4y agoRight, but these are the kind of games that I, as a consumer, do not expect to have to play with an ethical producer that truly just cares about making good products.
- alliao 4y agoI have a 2015 or so era Miele and have taken apart the dish washer and some design decisions are a bit dubious too.. cost down of physical relay from traditional bulky electromechanical relay to solid state (without heatsink might I add) and situated on top of the dish washer where it's warm. you can tell they don't really care enough about it, as the location which worked for older style relay but would be hostile for newer relay which on paper have better reliability.
