Miele: One Mean Green Cleaning Machine
Mean? Dirt runs and hides when it sees a Miele washer heading its way. Sporting a daunting combination of Advanced Touchtronic Controls, a 4.0 cubic foot stainless steel Honeycomb wash drum, eleven, count' em, eleven, MASTERCARE Wash Programs, and a built-in water heater, the Miele W4000 Series W4840 Super Capacity Washer shows no mercy to the likes of mud, grease, or grime. 24 hour delay start even allows you to leave the house when things get ugly. Fair? Not really. Unbiased? Hardly. Clean? You bet.
Green? Miele is proud to be green. Miele makes the most efficient washing machines on the market, using as little as 7.8 gallons of water per load. Cleaner clothes and lower utility bills? Being green just got a whole lot easier, sorry Kermit. Especially since every washing machine Miele makes qualifies for the Energy Star Program. Plus, Miele products are truly built to last. Independent surveys show that a Miele washing machine has a service life 45% longer than other brands. And not buying new -- not needing to! -- is as green as you can get. So remember, it's okay to be green. Your children's children will thank you for doing it.
Finicky? When it comes to your clothes, that's good
You want the people who make your appliances to be perfectionists. Miele is German. Germans are a notoriously persnickety people. Germans wash their driveways. You want Germans making your washing machine. You want that. You do. You want them making your washing machine because, while washing their driveways, they dream up great ideas like the revolutionary Honeycomb washing drum. Does that sound like some ho-hum, run-of-the-mill upgrade to you? It isn't.
The honeycomb patterning on the inside of Miele's stainless steel drum slows the flow of water, capturing a thin buffering layer to cushion your garments as they spin. How does it slow the flow? By reducing the number of drain holes punched in the drum by 80 percent. By reducing the number of drain holes, Miele has reduced the occurrence of the ever-dreaded snag by, you guessed it, 80 percent. They have everything down to a mathematical perfection, these people! So, yes, the cushioning effect protects your clothes... but it also gets them cleaner, by keeping them in detergent longer. Your beloved wardrobe will dodge the dinginess of persistent soil and survive the unavoidable wear and tear of washing up to four times longer using a Honeycomb drum! With Germans making your washing machine you can turn to worrying about something else, because your days of worrying about laundry are over.
