How the ranking is made

This page shows all models of this brand or supplier from the washing machines ranking, with the same data and the same order; RepairInfoEU adds no rating of its own and changes no values. Spellings that differ only in upper and lower case count as one name. In the French data, a supplier (manufacturer, importer or retailer) reports the score; the brand comes from the sales name confirmed on the manufacturer’s website or, where the supplier sells exactly one brand, from the supplier. Models without a reliable brand count towards no brand.

Method, cleaning and limits of the full ranking

Compared: all 34 washing machines from Miele in the French durability index dataset on data.gouv.fr (Licence Ouverte 2.0). As of 2 November 2026, updated weekly. Order: by the durability index score the supplier publishes (0 to 10); with equal scores, the longer spare parts supply first, then the name; the rank counts within this page.
