Chrismccarthy has posted his thoughts on his new Miele W1512 washing machine over at Review Centre, which replaced his old Zanussi when it broke down after only four years “with a PCB fault”.

Giving the W1512 a very positive review with an overall score of 9 out of 10, Chris explains how he chose to replace the departed appliance with a Miele W1512 in the hope that it would “last up to 20 years as they claim”. As well as being more durable, Chris mentions that the W1512 has “faster washes than my old Zanussi”; a typical wash taking 100 minutes. Other good points include its “very quiet operation”, plus a ‘time remaining’ display which tells you exactly how long each wash will take.

Chris concludes by reporting how he extended the 2 year parts and labour warranty to 6 years for a mere 30 euros. You can read the full review here.
