Best Washer & Dryer
Comments (16)Fridge - Sub-Zero BI-36S You will not find a better 36" SxS Miele Futura Diamond Series G5975 I have a La Perla II, you will not find a better dishwasher. Dacor Discovery MMD24 I have a 24" Sharp Drawer. Sharp makes all MW drawers. I prefer the door handle than the handless integrated MW drawers of Dacor,Wolf and Thermador but this is preference. Dacor's $616 price premium over Sharp brand is not. Knowing that if you want to pay the premium for the look go for it. Dacor Discovery ER48D too many reported problems with Dacor ovens. Failing integrated circuits within 5-10 years. $800 repair per oven. Chips in the enamel. Plus mediocre cooktop burners. Too much risk for little reward hoping problems have been solved. IMO The Dacor DF range's only redeeming quality is the lighted rings around the knobs. Every six months or so I forget to turn off a burner underneath a large pot. I have a 36" Capital Culinarian All-Gas range and a 24" Gaggenau wall oven. The Gagg is my work horse and mostly my baking oven while the Culinarian and its heavy duty motorized rotisserie is for roasting. If you want one cooking appliance and must have DF I would go with.Capital CONNOISSEURIAN SERIES COB488N. Instead of the Cullinarian's open 23k btu burners it has open 25k btu burners. And it has one small pot burner capable of 500 btu simmer. That is as low a simmer as anyone could use. I know Wolf goes down to 350 btu but that is really a warm plate feature. CONNOISSERIUN also has motorized rotisserie, two self clean ovens, plus moist assist which is an optional mode that allows an electric oven to act more like a gas oven. I have not read much feedback on Capital electric ovens, most ovens Capital sells are gas but the feedback I have heard has been overwhelmingly positive. Negative comments have been relatively minor like some think the digital display is not bright enough. I think my Sharp MW drawer digital display is too bright, shinning like a flash light when low mood lighting is on. Anyways Capital just starting rolling these out, most dealers don't have them on display yet. You might have to special order.

Comments (5)For anyone reading about this question--installation is key. I've had 2 Miele washers installed in my 1906 house on the 2nd floor, without any special setup. First had noticeable vibrations at the super high spin speeds that the washer can do. It was workable and we had it that way for about 12 years,doing a ton of laundry, but it did vibrate some @ high speeds. Second machine W3038 has VERY amazingly little vibration/noise even at its highest spins. Not really a difference in the machines, its that the second one was installed by Miele while the first one wasn't--I thought we'd adjusted the levelling well, but obviously not as well as the professional Miele installer. I was very pleasantly installed to find out how little it now vibrates or makes noise....See Morebest stackable washer and dryer?
Comments (4)I have the full size Electrolux stacked. I like that with the Electrolux, you can change the door direction on both so they hinge on the same side, whichever side you want....See MoreBest stackable washer/dryer in master closet
Comments (5)In this instance, I might recommend our Speed Queen unitized if Miele is out of budget. While not without minor annoyances, it handles all but king comforters with ease, and is built like a tank. It has a shallow footprint at 28” so will look more sleek than most inside a closet. It will, however, be 27” wide and I think the Miele LiGi is 24”? enduring, correct me if I’m wrong....See Moremike_73
