Miele unveils new fully A-rated 60cm dishwasher range

Appliance manufacturer, Miele has upgraded all of the 60cm dishwashers in its collection (including within its G 5000 and G 7000 ranges) to energy efficiency rating A – without affecting retail price. With this upgrade to its G 5000 series, maximum energy efficiency is now available in all price ranges, which the company says meets the most important purchasing criteria for consumers.

The completely redesigned successor models for the entry level G 5000 range offer reduced power consumption and adjusted programme running times and temperatures. Meanwhile, the AutoOpen automatic door opening function switches off the heating phase at the end of the washing programme to reduce energy consumption. At the same time, the door opens slightly, allowing targeted air circulation to provide optimum drying performance. This feature also prevents any damage to kitchen cabinetry fronts.

The upgraded models offer the AutoDos automatic dosing aid with integrated PowerDisk. This measures out the correct amount of powder granules precisely, ensuring consistently high cleaning results. What’s more, models in the G 7000 range that were already QuietMark approved will continue to hold this accreditation.

“Sustainability is part of our basic setup – even in the entry-level class, where we’ve actually achieved leaps in energy efficiency of up to three label classes,” said Dr Michael Junker, senior VP business unit dishwashing at Miele. “Our goal was to establish environmentally friendly dishwashing as a basic expectation, not as an optional extra. Our revamped dishwasher range offers a compelling overall package that combines energy-efficient washing programmes and functionality with an attractive price-performance ratio.”
