You shouldn't buy a more expensive model, you should buy a better brand, e.g., a German brand like Miele.

- lazyjones 12y agoMiele is overrated IMO. The brand tries to build some sort of hype around its warranty and higher price, but it fails to produce better results as many independent tests have shown. I own a Miele W2365 washing machine and a Miele T4223C tumble dryer, both sold and installed by a specialist retailer. The washing machine fails to wash properly at lower temperatures (<= 40°C) and the tumble dryer ruins many (suitable for dryers!) clothes because it seems to have no temperature limit and gets far too hot. They still both "work" after 8 years though ...
- frik 12y agoOlder Miele models are real work horses that run forever. I have seen several models from the 1960s to 1990s that run 24 hours a day in a testing department.
- mgkimsal 12y agoI don't disagree, however you're sometimes limited by geography as to what's reasonably available in your area. And even brands that had historically been considered 'safe' (from my youth) no longer appear to be so.
