Capacity and loading flexibility
The XXL interior provides space for 14 place settings, with additional room for oversized crockery, tall glasses and awkwardly shaped items. MaxiComfort baskets and the adjustable 3D MultiFlex tray give the interior a high degree of flexibility for everyday mixed loads.
The tray can accommodate cutlery and smaller items while its adjustable sections help create clearance for taller glassware. BrilliantLight illuminates the interior and the area in front of the appliance, making loading and unloading easier in darker kitchens.
Cleaning, drying and convenience
AutoDos with an integrated PowerDisk automatically dispenses detergent for the selected programme, while QuickPowerWash is intended for normally soiled crockery in a stated 58-minute cycle. Fifteen programmes, Half Load load sensing and DelayStart provide useful control over different washing needs.
AutoOpen drying and SensorDry are designed to improve drying performance by adapting to the load and surrounding conditions. Brilliant GlassCare, a 45°C Gentle programme and padded glass supports provide dedicated care for delicate glassware.
Efficiency, noise and installation considerations
A 41dB noise level makes this a particularly discreet choice for open-plan homes. The supplied information also states an A energy rating, 8.9-litre ECO programme water consumption and energy use as low as 0.45kWh on that programme.
This is a fully integrated appliance intended for a handleless kitchen, with Knock2Open access and a furniture door panel required. Miele@home adds app and voice-control options, while the stated Waterproof system is subject to its terms and correct installation by a qualified fitter.
