Miele Dishwasher or something else?

There were several features that we liked about the Bosch. We spent a couple of weekends reviewing a number of dishwashers including Kitchenaids, Bosch, and Miele. We reviewed on-line including Consumer Reports and a number of other sites. We went to several stores to look for models that we had found on-line. After a couple of weekends studying until our eyes were crossed and the numbers started to run together we opted for the Bosch. We had owned a Miele vacuum cleaner that was a good unit, but repairs, replacement parts and accessories were very expensive and hard to find, even on-line. The replacement bags and filters cost an arm and a leg. It is so very hard to find anyone that can service the darn thing. We finally decided that the accessibility of replacement parts and repair services for an appliance we expected to have at least 10 years was worth picking the Bosch over the KitchenAid and the Miele. We also felt that some of the extra features that we got in the Bosch fit our family and usage patterns much better.

Miele might be expensive to repair but Bosch doesn't even stock parts. Our DW was 8 years old and couldn't get parts. They didn't exist. Friend had same problem at exactly 8 years. Planned obsolescence. Never again.
