The company exists as long as I live. Personally, I have two devices from this company. One of them is a juicer from 1989. The second is a mixer bought in the 90s. Zero failures to date.
Unfortunately, it is impossible to answer the question whether it is a good company. Nobody knows where Miele currently produces (orders) components for its products. If 100% production still takes place in Germany (which I doubt), the equipment will be worth recommending.
I'm writing about it because Grundig is no longer the same Grundig that my peers know (I'm about 40 years old). Bosch is not the same Bosch as in the 90's. After all, nothing is the same today as it used to be. The logos of good brands have long been sold to someone else and this "new" someone most often orders components in China and sells them under the old logo. Here you can repair yourself, and even a lot. Remember the NTT computers from the 90's? Super machines at the level of IBM, HP or COMPAQ. And today? Today, NTT is a Warsaw-based company that cares about the client. And so it is with almost everything. At the end of the 90's there was a German company Kruger&Matz. Not to be confused with Krueger & Matz. They did Audio and Speakers. The new ones also "make" but a massacre. It is impossible to give an opinion to a company that may only have the logo of its predecessor. The opinion will be born after a few years of using the equipment. It was only bad luck that after a few years such a company often changes its logo.
Oh, and the price. The price in Poland is not an indicator of quality. In Poland, everything electronic or electric is usually more expensive than the same abroad.
What am I talking about?
I decided to buy a new HP laptop. I just need net. It fell on the HP 250 G4. I searched and searched and found it near London. I sent my friend the money and I'm waiting for the package. The same HP and even better because with a 1TB drive, not 500GB, and with 8GB RAM, not 4GB, and with i3, not Celeron, it cost me about PLN 800 cheaper than in Euro AGD, including shipping. I ordered an Apple tablet through a cousin who lives permanently in Sweden. Tablet ordered from the states because there is free shipping to Sweden. It came out about PLN 1,000 cheaper! Yes Yes! I didn't make a mistake! He will come on vacation in August and he will bring it. And so it is with everything else. A Canon camera (20.1mpx, hd, regular camera, not a reflex camera) in a sale in Lidl near Hannover cost 39.90 euros (2 months ago). The same camera in Euro AGD in Warsaw cost PLN 349.
You see. The Union is falling apart and will fall apart over time. Harvest in "Polaczki" is currently underway. All stores we know (Mediamarkt, Auchan, Real, Saturn and others) are not Polish. They will harvest and may wrap. The price is not an indicator of quality because it varies terribly, and it's already at a distance of 1000 km!
