SMEG or Miele?

[Floob]

Hi,

Am very tempted to get a Miele fridge freezer.

But I do like the look of Smeg – but is the build quality the same as Miele?

Thanks

Floob.

Hi Floob

Well, their website wasn’t much help – but basically it would be one of the full height 60/40 fridge freezers.

I think Smeg brand ‘quality’ is maintained by nothing more than marketing bs. Smeg don’t even make anything themselves. The overall build quality is dubious, although I think they use Danfoss compressors. Don’t mix Smeg with Miele.

If you want the best engineering and reliability it’s Miele or Liebherr. Miele refridgeration are made for them by Liebherr. Miele IMO have the edge on style. Liebherr are slightly cheaper with less bling (I particularly liked the stainless models), but every bit as good functionally (check their unique handle design that overcomes vacuum effect). Under the skin, the models are almost like for like.

I bought the CTPES3213 – simple but effective and it looks gorgeous. The stainless cladding is high quality and very well finished – as good as it can get.
