Additionally, the model features a heat exchanger system that allows for efficient heat recovery, ensuring that warm air is reused during the drying process. This not only increases efficiency but also contributes to lower wear on the dryer itself.

With Miele's renowned build quality and rigorous testing, the T 8422 C is designed to last. It exemplifies durability and reliability, making it a sound investment for any household. Alongside its technological advancements, the dryer is also exceptionally quiet during operation, allowing for uninterrupted daily life.
