G 2020 specifications

The Miele G 2020 is a premier dishwasher that epitomizes advanced engineering combined with user-friendly functionality. Designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern household chores, the G 2020 stands out in the competitive appliance market with its innovative features and exceptional performance.

One of the standout features of the G 2020 is its powerful yet quiet operation. With a noise level of just 44 dB, it barely disrupts the household ambiance, making it ideal for open-plan living spaces. This low noise level is achieved through Miele's sophisticated engineering and sound insulation technology, allowing users to run the dishwasher at any time of day or night without disturbance.

The G 2020 also boasts an impressive flexibility in loading capacity, accommodating various dish sizes and types with its adjustable racks and tines. The upper rack can be easily adjusted to create more space for taller items in the lower rack, ensuring optimal use of the interior. The lower rack is designed with foldable tines, which enhance its versatility, allowing for the washing of pots and larger plates without hassle.

Another highlight is Miele's innovative AutoOpen drying feature. At the end of the cycle, the door automatically opens slightly to allow steam to escape, aiding in more efficient drying without causing spots or streaks on dishes. This feature, combined with the use of high-quality materials, guarantees that even the most delicate glassware gets a flawless clean without any risk of damage.

The appliance is equipped with Miele’s iconic EcoPower technology, which ensures efficient water usage while maintaining excellent cleaning performance. The G 2020 maximizes water efficiency by using only the minimum required amount per wash cycle, helping to reduce environmental impact without compromising on quality.

Additionally, the G 2020 supports multiple wash programs tailored to different cleaning needs, ranging from gentle cycles for fragile items to intensive washes for heavily soiled cookware. The user-friendly interface allows for easy selection of programs, making it accessible for individuals of all skill levels.

Miele is renowned for its commitment to quality and durability, and the G 2020 is no exception. Built with high-quality components and extensive testing, this dishwasher promises longevity and reliability, standing as a trustworthy investment for any household.

In summary, the Miele G 2020 combines state-of-the-art technology, superior flexibility, and eco-friendly practices, making it a superb choice for those seeking a high-performance dishwasher that excels in both functionality and design.
