Product review (4 stars): High quality
I switched to Miele from a GE.  That one lasted for twenty something years without repairs and I have heard that this one is likely to last that long, too.  I know I could have been happy with any of them, but decided to try out the European model, just for kicks.

I love how clean everything is.  It might be the rinse aid and salt they have you add, but everything is so clean and I love it.

I love the flexible silverware tray versus the basket from my old dishwasher.

I love how quiet it is.

I love how energy efficient it is.

I am surprised at how well it dries without a heated dry feature.  There are pools in things with bigger indentations (I left something upside down and it was full of water, but everything else was dry.)  It opens automatically is why it does dry pretty well.

I like the colored tabs where things move.

All of those are strong positives.

It takes about 30 minutes longer on normal cycle than my old dishwasher, but there are shorter cycles if I have a lightly soiled load.  (It doesn't have heated dry, so using it longer doesn't take more energy)

I haven't had any issues at all with the filter yet and will only examine it when I add salt, which won't be often, because my water is fairly soft.

The only real negative is that it is more expensive, and I knock it down one star for that, but I wanted something that will last twenty years and this is still designed that way.  I know that there are lemons with all brands, but I chose this one, because there is a greater likelihood that I won't have to replace it for twenty years than with other brands.
