Miele shit just continues to exist inexplicably. Literally unbreakable (permanently). And according to what I've read, at least, their modern stuff has not dropped in quality
I honestly can't think of any brands that have anything close to that longevity
It's the little things that count.
The drain pump is just 3 bolts to take off (pump came back to life after I tipped it. The new one is still sat in the cupboard a decade later).
The electronics are mounted on their own door. They swing out, and are VERY easy to service.
The wiring diagram was in a plastic wallet inside the machine.
The shocks are easy to access and come off with an M10 spanner and are easy access.
Those are just the ones that have noticed explicitly, the whole machine was built with that mentality.
I used a Miele hoover as a shop vac, hoovering wall plaster, muck and sawdust etc and pretty much abused it - replaced all filters and gave it a good clean and it still works like new. That was 5 years ago and it's still going fine.
