I need a new washing machine - I've had a variety of second hand Bosch/Siemens ones previously but thought this time i'd just buy something new & top quality that will last.

Everyone says to get a Miele, they last for 20 years etc etc.

But then I look at the reviews on trustpilot & they are truly awful:

I know no-one leaves a review when all is well but some of those do make grim reading, & having paid a premium to then not get the durability/service expected would be far worse to me than just replacing a cheap machine every few years, or repairing an older one occasionally.

Maybe the quality has nosedived the past few years - does anyone know?
