Ditto likewise. We had a Miele dishwasher that lasted at least 15 years and still going strong. (We sold it as a built-in when we sold that last house. It had followed us to that last house from the house before.) Very quiet. I hadn't realised that there was a fan-assisted drying mode until I wondered where the warm air was coming from when I walked past it one day. I venture to say that old Miele dishwasher is good for at least five more years, making it a very affordable investment over the 20 years or so of its working life. Our current house has a more-recent Bosch dishwasher. If anything, it is even quieter than the older Miele was. It's a good unit.Though I think overall, I prefer the Miele dish-stacking layout.
