Poor quality – Had this microwave for 4 years before the glue holding the face plate failed and fell off. 6 months later the plastic door latch broke rendering the unit useless. Not impressed with Miele, the price or the quality. I also found the user interface poorly designed and not intuitive to do simple things like reset the clock after a power outage.

Excellent – easy to use , built in auto food menue easy to use, power setting at a twist great idea , built in grill wonderful , does cost more but if you by miele you expect that , looks great and works the same looks great for a built in micro wave , nice good size internal, easy controls

Good – Build in design complements other Miele appliances in our kitchen. Very user friendly, love the wattage dial. It took a little getting used to the 10 second increments with the timer dial. Well designed, extremely quiet. Quiet, reliable, easily adjustable wattage, design expensive, 10 second increments for time.

Have full kitchen of Miele. Microwave died after only 4 years. Overpriced and unreliable. Had a panasonic for 18 years and still going!

So you had kept the Panasonic even after you bought the Miele one?

Miele staff were very helpful and oganised a 40% refund on parts. Bearing that in mind I am still mystified why they are using Sanyo parts when advocating German technology and 20 years expected reliability. Yes we still have the Panosonic available as a back up.
