I have a Miele dishwasher about 10 years old that really cleans and you can't hear it run. But, it has one big problem. We live at the farm in the summer, so we will be gone for 4 to 6 weeks, when we come home, it doesn't work. It was made in Germany and they put an intake water value on it so if the water would start leaking, it would shut off the dishwasher. Since we turn the water off when we leave it thinks something is wrong, so it shuts the value off. Then we have to replace it for about $200 if my husband does it. We have an old Maytag at the farm, works every time. I think the Maytag cost about $400 and the Miele was close to $2,000. So, if you go on a lot of vacation, be sure to ask it the dishwasher has a "Intake water value". If it does, run.
