G 5170, G 5175 specifications

Miele has established itself as a leader in premium domestic appliances with its innovative dishwasher models, including the G 5175 and G 5170. Both units are designed to meet discerning standards of cleaning performance, energy efficiency, and convenience, making them ideal for modern households.

Starting with the Miele G 5175, this model is characterized by its powerful cleaning capabilities combined with advanced technology. It boasts Miele's renowned TurboDrying technology, which enhances drying performance by optimizing airflow within the dishwasher. This means that users can expect spotlessly clean and dry dishes without the hassle of hand-drying. The G 5175 is also equipped with an intuitive touch control interface, allowing for easy program selection and monitoring.

Another standout feature of the G 5175 is its flexibility in loading. The FlexiCare basket system provides adjustable tines and a height-adjustable upper rack, enabling users to maximize space and accommodate various dish shapes and sizes. This thoughtful design ensures that every dish has a dedicated spot, improving the overall cleaning efficiency.

Meanwhile, the Miele G 5170 offers similar performance with a slightly more streamlined feature set. This model also incorporates Miele's EcoTech technology, contributing to lower energy consumption without compromising cleaning results. The G 5170 operates quietly, making it suitable for open-plan living spaces where noise can be a concern. With its 48 dB noise level, it provides a peaceful environment while ensuring that dishwashing tasks are handled efficiently.

Both models come with Miele's unique AutoOpen drying feature, which automatically opens the door at the end of the cycle to enhance air drying. This innovation not only saves energy but also results in drier dishes.

In terms of cleaning options, both the G 5175 and G 5170 include various wash programs to cater to different needs, including Intensive, Quick, and Eco modes. These settings allow users to customize their dishwashing experience based on load type and energy preferences.

Overall, the Miele G 5175 and G 5170 dishwashers represent a remarkable blend of technology, efficiency, and user-friendly design. With their dedication to quality and performance, these models reinforce Miele's status as a maker of premium appliances that elevate the everyday task of dishwashing.
