Unfortunately a lot of people are complaining about broken machines and very poor customer service and repair policies.

I don't own one, but I would like to. But as they are very expensive, every time I think about buying one, I read the comments on their Instagram and don't know if they really are worth the money anymore.

Reading comments on pretty much any large purchase nowadays gives me a major case of analysis paralysis.

There's always people trying to use their washing machine as a dishwasher 5 years after their warranty ended, screaming abuse at the customer support people then complaining online that they didn't get the outcome they wanted. Miele is generally a good brand.

Remember that reviews and feedback on such pages are very skewed in the negative direction. People tend to share their negative experiences and complain much more than they share positive feedback and praise for a product.

Unfortunately that's just human nature. When you produce thousands upon thousands of a product, someone will eventually have a product that malfunctions or breaks. It might even be the user's own fault due to negligence, and they still blame the producer.

Read several reviews and varying opinions to make up your own conclusions
