Miele W3922 reviews: Front Loading loading, 6kg capacity washing machine

+ Very quiet

- None

+ Lots of features which are relatively easy to access and use and the machine is very quiet. Oozes quality.
I was going to put 'Its pretty heavy' in the bad points but actually I really like the solidity of the unit, and the weight training I had to do to get it in the right position did me good (I think).

- Being really picky - for us it would have been better if the door opened right to left rather than left to right.

+ Superb quality, quiet efficient

- None

+ Fantastic washing, clothes feel extra clean, easy to use.

+ This is the Rolls Royce of washing machines. Spectacular wash results and, being a man, I spend hours just watching, and listening to the effortless, near silent machine doing its thing. The 30 minute express wash is as good as any full wash I've had with other machines and the 1600rpm spin seems to wring out better than any other 1600 machine. Would recommend it to anyone, its an investment.

- Absolutely nothing

+ Excellent machine. Quiet and extremely efficient, as it calculates how much water, detergent and washing time is required, depending on what has been placed in the drum. It also allows you to run a cold water wash, which has been invaluable for washing items that would normally need dry cleaning, like sofa cushion covers, silk and woollen jackets. Well worth the investment, and if it lasts 20 years, like my last washing machine, it will work out cheaper than buying a new one every few years.

- None.

+ Good washing results
Different useful programms
Ease of use
It is just good quality

- Price, although it seems to be a good investment. Good quality. Certainly recommended

+ Quiet and easy to use.

- Cold water tap attachment comes with a big filter that makes it hard to fit in narrow space.

+ It is so quiet when washing that I have to go and check that it is still working. It is virtually vibration free, unlike our previous Bosch machine that bounced around the floor. Works extremely well on the 30 minute wash and spin cycle therefore very energy efficient.

- Some programmes are time consuming to set up requiring constant reference to the manual. No doubt it will speed up in time with familiarity. Some programmes take a long time to go through their cycles.

+ Depth of machine is slimmer than regular washing machines however this does not compromise the drum size in any way. Read instructions first very easy to use thereafter. Noise was my big concern and this machine can not be heard in fact you would not know it was even on. Can't praise it enough excellent buy would reccommend highly.

- None

+ This washing machine has turned out to be an excellent buy, even though a bit expensive, bearing in mind I will probably only use a handful of the variety of features (but that's just me). However, that said 2 features in particular are a great improvement on my last machine (a Zanussi which lasted 21 years!). (1) Knowing how long there is left in the cycle, i.e. count down time, is brilliant for knowing how long to hang out on line, and (2) The noise, or rather lack of noise, when it spins is outstanding. Hardly know it is spinning, in fact sometimes I've had to check if it spun at all.

- Mostly the cost, still rather an expensive purchase, considering most families have a washing machine out of necessity these days, can't think they wont sell them, so probably I've paid for the brand name, however the technical improvement regarding the quiet spinning may have something to do with it.

+ Well built, quiet and straightforward to use, and good washing results. Expensive, but you get what you pay for.

- Not really found any yet ( 2 months use)

+ solid, not complicated, obviously built to last and hardly makes any noise when washing.....fantastic!

- difficult to get into place and level due to its sheer weight!! Not much else.

+ Simply a very high quality product that works extremely well. Very quiet in operation and as you would expect it washes well. It gives you the feeling it knows what it is doing

- Some may be put off by the solid traditional looks, no flashy brushed stainless steel or unnecessary blinking lights, but don't be fooled by its outer skin it's every bit as technically advanced as the others, if not more so.

+ Quality machine, does its job extremely well, good range of programmes and features, very quite (only pump is noticeable), highly recommended.

- None.

+ Fantastic washing machine, if I could rate the noise higher then 10/10 I would, it is that quiet you can't even hear it when it is spinning. Brilliant all round machine, and even though it is expensive with the free 10 year guarantee it is more then worth the money. In 15-20 years time when I need to replace this washer I will definately be buying another one.

- NONE!!!

+ It's really quiet, it tells me how much detergent to use, its got a light inside... I could go on and on. I love doing the washing now!

- None

+ Super quiet, really quick and bullet proof

+ Solid build and very quiet. Has child lock which is good, as the many buttons are a great attraction for small fingers! This design has a flat control front and although not as "funky" looking as the modern styled Miele machines, it fits perfectly under a counter and is easily operated. The machine tells you when the load is at 100%, which stops you from overloading the drum. The washing performance is excellent. The price reflects the solid German build.

- None so far.

+ Build quality, features and functionality, low noise and backed up by a 5/10 year warranty by the manufacturer.

- Can't think of any!

+ Exceptionally quiet machine, does what it says, washes well and takes a large load. It has features for cleaning and proofing waterproofs and is quite adaptable.

- Slightly larger than other Miele models, so it can be a tight fit. Our previous Miele W754 could be manually overidden at all times so we have lost a little control; it is also very heavy to move.

+ brilliant, quiet, fast thorough. Without fault - the only niggle is you cant have a cold wash for cottons!

+ Superb washing results time after time. I love the traditional style and the features of the machine. 10 year guarantee is a big bonus. You get what you pay for. Miele's reputation is richly deserved.

- The " Modus Operandi" takes a bit of getting used too: Switch on -Select programme - Load drum - Add detergent - START. After cycle is completed the order is as follows: Open door - Remove laundry - Programme selector to Stop - Switch off - Close door. Nevertheless, it still gets Ten from me.

+ excellent build quality. Superb warranty. Great washing performance.

- none.

+ Excellent quality

- Long cycle times

+ Outstandingly quiet, does an excellent wash, very intelligent, easier to use than it first looks !

- Incredibly heavy, but then I don't intend to move it again... Some very long wash times, but I guess that's why the clothes are noticeably clean...

+ 10 yr parts & labour guarantee

- Quite ugly - hardly contemporary in styling

+ Cleans clothes thoroughly

- Cycle time is too long

+ everything

- none

+ A great washing machine

- A little expensive.

+ Quiet

- Complicated

+ had my last machine 12years now my sister has it. she said she has never had such clean washing.
of coarse it was the sister model of the wsp 3922.so i know that the wsp3922is improved has excelent specifications and so easy to use superb

- glad to say i have not found any bad points.

+ very reliable - excellent build quality, you get what you pay for.

+ Really quiet, handy light inside the drum helps you spot the rogue sock! Express wash is only 30 minutes.

- Can't combine some programmes with higher spin speeds.

+ Build quality, performance and wash results

- None that I have discovered

+ It washes excellently on all programmes. Has a high, but quiet, spin speed that gets the washing really dry. This machine is full of good features combined with a very good build quality.

- It has a noisey pump, but this is the only poor point the machine has, so not so bad really.

+ short programmes, lots of choice of practical programmes and all very quick

- sometimes does not spin very well with a full load may need to get engineer out to it

+ So quiet, highly configurable and with reasonable duration of wash cycles, it's an order of magnitude better than the washing machine it replaced.

- The pre-wash adds a quite of bit of time and not as much water as I would have liked for this type of cycle

+ I cannot fault this machine, it exudes quality, efficiency, quietness and is value for money. My research indicates it as the leading make for reliability.

- None

+ Quiet machine

- None

+ very intelligent machine, tells you how much powder to use on the size of load placed into machine,and the quality build is second to none.nice and quiet too.

- can,t open the door unless the machine is turned on,and the light in the drum only stays on for a limted time

+ Very quiet

- Reviewer left no comment

+ Extremely quiet. Well built.

- Slightly complex menu structure.

+ Super Quiet Machine, nice design, fairly easy to operate (read the manual), light on door opening is really cute feature!. Washing comes out almost dry, so less time in Dryer. Really pleased so far.

- None that Ive found so far.

+ It's like having a Rolls Royce in your kitchen

- Not found any yet.

+ Very easy to understand controls, and lots of variations to the wash regarding temperature and spin speeds. Very quiet when running and economical with washing powder only using whats required. Overall very plleased with the machine.

- Expensive compared to other washing machines on the market but this is understandable as it is a much better quality machine

+ Extremely quiet. Very good range of cycles to choose from. Like the detergent indicator which tells you what % of the recommended qty of powder you actually need to use. Love the internal drum light and the digital time indicator. Just love it. This washing machine was recommended to me by a friend and it has not failed to impress - it sounds sad but I LOVE my new washing machine!!!!

- None

+ Excellent range of programmes, with numerous additional options on each cycle. Delay start, extremely quiet.

- None known at the moment- except load/detergent option will not work if machine not switched off/door opened in correct sequence.

+ Just looks a solid, contemporary and classy piece of equipment. Really like the fact the drum lights up and that there is an open door button. The controls are clear and do exactly what I need them to do. Like the extra cycles esp pillows and denim. This is one of the less expensive Miele models that has timer delay

- Would have liked a half load option, but that may be covered by the load weighing system

+ Washes extremely well. Amazingly quiet. Built like a tank.

- None

+ Best washing machine on the planet. It is sooo quiet

- very heavy

+ Good choice of programmes, very quiet

- Quite expensive, but hopefully it will last longer

+ It's so fantastically quiet my dogs lie down and sleep next to it. It's efficient and does a great job of washing. It has programmes to cope with everything from the dogs beds to the rugby strips and my most precious clothes. My son loves the way it lights up.

- none

+ Lovely quality, good range of programs.
Like the timer delay and express wash 30 min program.

- Can't seem to open the door during a power cut. Not a big deal.

+ GOOD LOAD SIZE. EASY TO USE. I AM USING LESS SOAP POWDER FOR A CLEANER WASH. THERE IS A WASH CYCLE FOR EVERY PROBLEM.

- NONE

+ Very quiet, excellent programme choices - that can be personalised, wide opening door, quality feel.

- So many programmes it can be difficult to choose which one is most suitable - not for those who want a no frills machine

+ QUIET, VERSATILE

- CANT TURN THE DOOR TO OPEN FROM OTHER SIDE

+ Quiet, efficient, very well made, comprehensive programs

- Expensive - but you get what you pay for

+ Auto loading sensor. Lit drum. Multiple programs. Digital display in understnadable English ( or any other language you want).

- You have to close the door and turn on the power in the correct order for the auto loading sensor to function. Quite a minor gripe really

+ 10 year guarantee.
Reliable
Market leader

- None

+ Much quieter than previous machine, free 10 yr manufacturer's guarantee, energy efficient. No problems

- Cant' really think of any...

+ This machine is a quality product. The range of programmes is impressive and easy to use.

- None really. Wish it was half the price......ha ha!

+ Excellent washing machine, silent, robust and easy to use. The clothes come out clean and almost dry because of the fast spin speed for the cottons; especially the bed sheets and towels. Expensive to buy, but well worth it.

- Expensive to buy.

+ Very efficient. Very, very quiet. Looks good.

- Haven't found any yet!

+ Love the ease of use, the internal light, the length of time of the cycle is constantly shown, the clothes are well cleaned and spun.

- Can't think of any

+ Fantastically quiet!

- Pretty expensive

+ As above. Nice touch such as light bulb inside the drum

- I would like more flexibility, such as being able to rinse and spin only.

+ Excellent product. Very easy to use. Does what it promises.

- None

+ Easy to use once you understand the menu system.
Quiet in operation.
Washes well. I wish I had upgraded before.

- Non really although to get the best from the machine options you need to read the booklet and learn the ones you use the most.

+ child lock and 10 year guarantee

- Reviewer left no comment

+ It is the quietest washing machine I have ever had. Good that you can set the clock to time the loads. Good variety of programmes.

- Can't think of any bad points

+ amacing cleaning and clotches look very good. spin is extremely effective and very quiet. and it is very stable on the floor, doesnt move a millimeter

- of course it is a lot of money for a washing machine, but the best one I have ever had

+ Quiet versatile and excellent workmanship

- you have to pay a premium for quality

+ I particularly like the fact that I can set time delay without calculating the start time for a desired finish time. Also, the anti crease cycle is great if I am unable to unload a wash immediately after it has finished. In terms of value for money - you get what you pay for but it would be nice if it wasn't so expensive.

+ Extemely quiet and easy to use.

- No particular bad points. Miele is always an expensive make but works out as better quality and less hassle with regards to breaking down usually.

+ Very quiet. Love the features telling the weight of washing in machine, amount of detergent to put in and the time it takes for the cycle.
