Miele WCR870WPS W1 - Cottons 40°C with Powerwash 2.0

[@manueljesuusr]

What it’s better in your opinion Siemens o Miele?

[@TheWashHouse]

That’s a difficult one. I think I’d say I like them both equally for different things, but the Siemens has the edge for quietness and rinsing/spinning efficiency

[@manueljesuusr]

@@TheWashHouse and in quality? Thank you :)

[@TheWashHouse]

@@manueljesuusr physical quality, probably the Miele with the stainless tub and cast iron weights. But the electronics and programming are more refined on the Siemens

[@stevenouyang1564]

Great clip! I have the same machine and thought the ticking noise in the beginning of a spin cycle was problematic. I gave customer service a call and they told me it’s normal. I also had a Siemens iQ500 and it never had noises like that.

Hi, ich bin ein Fan von alten Miele Maschinen, besitze eine W2244 die ist 19 Jahre alt und grade mal 1850H auf dem Tacho. Wurde von mir auch sehr gepflegt. Ich mag die kurzen Programme bei hohen Temperaturen. Doch das ist wirklich die erste neue Miele, die mich von den Programmen und Design, sehr anspricht. Eine echt coole moderne Machine. Mir gefällt, an dem Bullauge, dass noch orangene Miele Markenzeichen. ✌🏻

[@AA-2018]

The basic setting is an extremely economical wash, declared for lightly soiled laundry. We could say: "wet" washing with evaporation. What I like is that this allows you to wash lightly used garments at 60 ° in a really smart way. The last part of the wash increases the amount of water by operating in the traditional way. In any case, the machine can be set in many different ways: gentle rhythm, traditional low level; + water with 4 levels, I don't know how many washing machines have this possibility. Maximum freedom of choice for the customer, in my opinion. One question: was the initial calibration done without detergent?

[@user-lz6dm5lk9y]

Oh, come on! These washing machines are ridiculously over engineered. What ANYONE needs to know to do a load of laundry are (1) choose Normal or Delicate cycle; and, choose your water temp, either Hot, Warm, or Cold. No one needs anything more complicated than this to wash clothes, linens, etc. Miele is laughing all the way to the bank at the people who buy this ridiculous machine.

[@user-lz6dm5lk9y]

Where do you put soap powder, and how do you know how much to use? Can you chose just a basic normal wash with either hot, warm or cold water? These machines are too complicated!!

this is a washing machine not a toy with bells and whistles many others have nowadays, lg and samsung just to name the most famous and adored.

[@lord-mrk]

Hello! I have bought the same model two weeks ago and on the detergent drawer it says that It has powerwash and twindos not like yours where it says it has powerwash 2.0. Is it a problem and should call Miele?

[@TheWashHouse]

Not a problem at all - mines a 2018 model. They updated the drawer graphics since then but that’s all

[@SiemensIQ700pro]

For Miele I believe chugging recirculating pumps are normal for efficiency reasons

[@TheWashHouse]

The pump “chugging” is nothing to do with energy efficiency, it’s just trapped air cavitating

[@arcfa2267]

Did it wash good, I mean there was no water left since water circulstion pump cannot spray almost any water onto clothes, that surprised me.

[@TheWashHouse]

With this method of washing the load is already soaked in the detergent solution, and the circulation pump just recirculates and loose water in the sump back into the machine. It tops up towards the end of the wash to flush any soiling out, once the detergent has worked on the load. It is more effective than it looks, although I usually have Gentle action programmed so it won’t do this, mainly because I feel this method of washing isn’t particularly gentle when used on the more delicate programmes.

[@go5582]

hi. try the new 2024 Samsung Bespoke AI washer and dryer in one.

[@latui7350]

I wish this was a finer spray like LG's turbowash vs just a tube of water squirting out. I think it'd have faster and more uniform saturation that way.

[@TheWashHouse]

I do like the jet on those, only problem with LGs fine spray is that it has a tendency to cavitate when there is a lot of foam present

[@latui7350]

@@TheWashHouse that is true. Mine does that frequently.

[@blakaeg]

Is there a problem with it not using enough water as it's not supposed to chug when spraying. Hardly saw any spray jet during the wash part. Also I am surprised the machine did not do 3 rinses with this load automatically.

[@TheWashHouse]

No, I don’t find it is really a problem - this is the way it’s designed to work, and indeed it works very well and efficiently. It runs the recirculating to pump any excess water in the sump back into the load - it’s not designed to wash in a pool of water. The load is saturated in a concentrated solution of detergent at the beginning of the cycle. It’s difficult to adjust to, but it certainly works well!

[@blakaeg]

@@TheWashHouse Ah ok thanks for confirming! I had a Miele for a week and didn’t like the results, Currys was great and collected it and refunded me. Glad you like the machine and thank you for posting such great detailed videos.

[@TheWashHouse]

@@blakaeg the earlier version of the PowerWash 2 didnt saturate the load very well and would often trigger even with full loads where now on this generation it will saturate the load fully, and if it realises it is a heavier load it will correct itself and wash with the normal amount of water :-). Glad you like the videos, I’m not able to upload or film as regularly as I’d like at the moment but I’m glad you appreciate them!

[@TheWashHouse]

@@blakaeg also - I forgot to mention about the rinses. I find the default rinsing better than previous W2000/3000 mieles, but still lacklustre compared to BSH or even the Samsung that we briefly had. In normal use I tend to have Allergy activated which adds another default rinse on most cycles and still allows you to add up to two more with the extra rinse and Allergowash options. There is also max rinse level but I find the higher levels just cause more foaming. So, in day to day operation I have it set to 3 as standard with the option of adding a 4th.

[@blakaeg]

@@TheWashHouse Yeah I still prefer the Siemens over this myself. I do love the LG, but I’ve never used a 360 one so I’m afraid I can’t speak for the one that you have, though those jets do look cool. The LG has some things I don’t like, like the noises on some spins, the very short interim spins with small loads of stupidly long interim spins with full loads and not to mention 4 hours as well, but when my LG fails one day, I’d probably buy another as I love mine (apart from the knocking noises on some spins). That Siemens is impressive too.

[@manueljesuusr]

I have noticed that my Miele at the beginning of the washing cycle does spin spray to moisten the clothes with water and soap and then evacuate the water and drink again. Do you know why it does this?

[@TheWashHouse]

It’s setting the correct water level for heating after it’s soaked the load with the detergent solution

hi there, I have the model Miele WWD120 WCS 8kg however it has no buzzer after cycles. Is there any way to set the buzzer to go off after cycles? Also is there a way to keep the screen timer on the screen all the time instead of the screen dimming?

This is the standard 40 cycle. If you select water plus, intensive or gentle action it will override this sequence

@@TheWashHouse thank you for your answer, I have to do it without this option! Keep in touch!

[@cozma75]

@@TheWashHouse I made the changes as you told me, I don't like this washing option because the washing machine was shaking too much and on top of that I also have the Miele tumble dryer. I prefer the washing option with the water plus and soft action options activated. However, what I blame on the Miele washing machines is the fact that the intermediate spinning starts too fast and the washing machine shakes very hard. Otherwise, the Miele washing machine washes very well!

[@TheWashHouse]

@@cozma75 I find that the W1 isn’t very smooth when spinning either especially at how long it takes to balance. I don’t usually have it set to do this either. I have gentle action programmed in as I find the machine can be rough on laundry, and that deactivates the spin & spray phase.
