...happy with them. Owning the Miele has made me realise what I could have had for all these years! The Miele dryer is very efficient and has intelligent sensors. It starts off estimating how long the programme will take but then adjusts its timer to automatically suit the moisture content in the drum.

...the software as and when Miele invent new things or improve anything so it will remain up to date in future. It was easy to use and set up the first time.

Advantages: Running costs, speed of drying
Disadvantages: Noise, gas supply needed.

I am an illusive Corgi engineer who can install these machines, so needless to say I have one of these dryers in my home!

This tends to put off a lot of people. If ...
...be saving money on fuel bills after 3-4 years. Maybe 2 years if you have a big family. The dryer is very quick. If you have a 1400rpm spin washing machine then a full load will take 35minutes to get toasty dry. I used to have a 1000rpm machine which meant the clothes were wetter and took about an hour to dry. The main bugbear is noise. I installed mine in a garage simply because I didnt have space in the kitchen. I know someone who has a BG447 ... Read review

Disadvantages: Slightly noisy

I purchased this dryer around 2 weeks ago after my old dryer conked out and yes what a lovely large drum, plenty of room inside for your clothes and the condensor unit is so easy as it is waist high so easy to pull out and empty. This machine is a very light and has easy movement. It is very esay to operate with clear buttons and an easy time dial and a touch on the door and it will open for you. The filter at the bottom front of the machine also ... Read review
