ParticipantI think you got the wrong end of the stick there, ekkostar
the adam hornsby issue has been burning for some time
he keeps appearing, and as soon as the word miele is mentioned, he quotes chapter and verse out of a miele bookhe knows NOTHING about them, other than some kitchen firm he worked for on work experience fitted them in their kitchens
hes a student, he does cad (and from what we’ve seen, not very well), and therefore has NO experience in the whitegoods field, whatsoever
no1 disputes the issues youve brought up.. u asked for opinions, you got them.. was never going to be easy.. i cant comment on ise machines, never even seen one, never mind worked on one, im an engineer, have been all working my life, but i dont sit in computer forums spouting stuff i have little knowledge of
unlike that hornsby, who just winds people up
its been an interesting discussion.. in essence, it proves that every person is different, with differing needs, and financial situations dictate peoples choices.. not everyone can or would throw £600 plus on a washing machine
ultimately you got what u needed, miele machines are very good, yet lack in customer service, as one day im sure youll find
valid points were made here, such as, why did you ultimately find the guy who came to your machine more knowledgeable than any of the engineers on here.. sometimes, you got to try and bare in mind some of the guys on here have won awards, and are well recognised for their contribution to the white goods industry, some in the job for 30 years and above.
healthy debate is always good here on ukwhitegoods, but sometimes a fine line has to be drawn as to whether the information supplied is useful.. adam hornsby crosses that line on every occassion he posts, he knows it, see the last line of his post, but he does it anyway
as always , we can only be honest.. it isnt always what people want to hear, but ultimately, any decision is made by you, the consumer
good luck

Participantdont fall for the hotpoint trick either, its an indesit in disguise
avoid the haier at all costs.. go for a bosch

Participantgetting more too common this… spend some money, and get a proper machine!
do yourself a favour long term

Participantnot sure, but you can test its function by putting it in a cup of hot water and watching the resistance change
bet your boards faulty
but it might be worth checking the heater as well
helo_75
Participantwell, the motor isnt turning,
is it humming?
it could just be the capacitor
but, it may be the motor
thing is, that dryer is 50 times better than any of the current hotpoint rangeif you decide to change it, buy a zanussi

Participantits the front fan
when you take the condenser out, theres less resistance to the airflow, thats all.

Participantmight be worth checking the pump, thats the usual suspect
helo_75
Participantis it a wf860 or a wd860
if its stuck on a minute, theres something it hasnt done
worth checking the heater , thats the usual suspect if im honest
