Miele Dishwashers
Introduction
We installed the Diamante G2150SC and Slimline Touchtronic G832SC models during our kitchen remodel and have used them for a few weeks and have been enjoying using them. Our old noisy GE Profile dishwasher is now a fading memory.

Equipment review
I will start with the short list of negatives about these appliances: 1) They are expensive, 2) The instruction manuals are not easy to read, 3) They do not go through the garbage disposal.
Now that that is out of the way, on to the rest of the review...
These machines clean great. We had a few spots on our wine glasses at first until I read through the instructions and figured out how to set the water softener and rinse agent modes. (We did not need any water softener and our rinse agent is distilled white vinegar.)
These machine are really quiet. You can hear the water going into the machine and you can sometimes hear it run - if you stand next to it and do not have the TV on too loud in the loft.
We really like the silverware trays - this is the main reason why we purchased these machines. We do not like silverware baskets where you clean the silverware and then pick up the clean utensils by the part that you put into your mouth. If we had found this feature on a less expensive machine we probably would have bought it instead.
We are still learning how to efficiently load the machines. A lot of the stacking tines are adjustable/collapsable and the middle shelf can be raised/lowered so many loading options are available. I can not fit my largest stockpot because it is too tall but one of my 20 qt. pots will fit in both dishwashers.
The price is the biggest thing against these machines. $1500+ per machine almost made us not buy these because other machines had nearly equal ratings for low noise and quality in Consumer Reports. It really just came down to really wanting the silverware tray.
We love these machines and installing two of them make cleaning up after big cooking/serving events really quick and easy.
