The website is still live https://safety.hotpoint.eu/country.jsp?lang=en you will need to have the full model and serial number in order to check if it’s on the recall list.

Have seen a few built in double ovens which on the surface seemed okay. Service isn’t the best and spares were hard to come by. We had one under six months old which had numerous visits for not reaching temperature, customer gave up and asked us to replace with a Hotpoint.
I agree with Dave on the Beko suggestion.

It’s all on the Miele public website https://www.miele.co.uk/category/1014792/freestanding-fridge-freezers every spec is listed in the product data sheet inc decibel figure.
Not produced by Miele but by Liebherr ( not waxing lyrical) lol.

I would say yes. It’s regarded that with the human voice that 30db is a whisper and normal conversation of 60db.
Bear in mind the noise is only when the compressor is running.

I didn’t respond to the conversation as I felt I could not add anything new :rolleyes:
Wax lyrical!! It’s no secret I have been a fan of Miele and have been selling them for over thirty years as an authorised dealer. In that time the build quality of their washing machines has like all other brands diminished somewhat. Market pressures to sell at a price point, reduce quality of components, move your call centre offshore to reduce costs, while keeping shareholders happy. All these things sadly contribute.
This will not change while manufacturers insist on racing to the lowest price point they can. Rather than making a machine to a price someone needs to grab the bull by the horns and produce a machine and then put a price to it. Sadly it won’t happen, we will continue to buy sub standard machines on a regular basis rather than repairing them as we used to do in days gone by.
That said I have always found the Miele dishwashers, tumble dryes etc to be good. All the refrigeration is produced for them by Liebherr which are the best ( yes I was also a Liebherr stockist.)
There are lots of things I do not like about Miele but overall I still say they are very good.
As for the OP and his problem, I do sympathise. I would have returned to the supplier in the first instance as the contract of sale was with them, even later on when things were not going well with Miele I would have involved them. Probably the best and easiest free tool for any consumer which gets very good results is post on their social media sites. Virtually all manufacturers have F.book, X or Instagram pages.
Regards and Merry Christmas.

Excerpt below from the Bosch site.
“Plug & Play induction hobs are easily installed into an existing plug socket. It’s worth noting that as these products are plugged into mains electric, the nominal power is limited to 3.7kW. This means when cooking with more than two pots at the same time, the hob triggers an automatic power management, which may be inconvenient for large households that frequently cook larger meals with many pots at the same time. For higher power output, please select a hob without plug/with fixed wiring.”The factor of 12 I believe to be max setting of three per plate instead of four?

Every little saving counts when you are looking to improve on the energy label system which in turn is used to market the appliance as an enrgy efficient appliance.
Just a shame they don’t mention this function in the instructions.

Production date 1995 so it’s 28 years old, great that it’s lasted this long!!
Thermostat knob 311085708007 now obsolete.
Hinge cover 311085472000 now obsolete.
You may find an old cooker knob with the right shaft shape and size may well do the trick. Hinge cover is purely cosmetic so I would forget about it.
