Miele welcome right to repair
Miele has stated they are welcome the EU Parliament’s decision on the right to repair, which will give even more impetus to the issue of repairability. In most cases, repairing their durable appliances not only helps Miele customers save money on a new purchase, but also contributes to environmental and climate protection by reducing electronic waste and conserving resources.
At Miele, we test our domestic appliances for a service life of up to 20 years. Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that Miele appliances may become defective, but as repairs are generally less expensive and more sustainable than replacement, Miele maintain an extensive service network with qualified technicians. Miele also stock around 72,000 different spare parts and keep working parts in stock for at least 15 years after a product has been discontinued.Mieles approach is therefore inherently geared towards longevity and sustainability. Miele are not resting on their laurels, however, but are working to make service and repair solutions even better.
Miele hope that the EU directive will be implemented as uniformly as possible in all EU member states in order to minimise the implementation effort for market players
