The G 7566 is the XXL AutoDos build, fully integrated for cabinet-front paneling, 16 place settings, and an inverter-driven EcoMotor rated at 40 decibels. The AutoDos feature is the practical story: a PowerDisk cartridge loads 20 cycles of detergent, dosed automatically at the precise moment the wash cycle calls for it.
The 3D MultiFlex cutlery tray takes the place of a cutlery basket and articulates to fit serving spoons and chef knives. Miele sells replacement pumps, seals, heater elements, and spray arms through a dealer network with certified factory techs, and parts support typically runs 15 to 20 years after a model's discontinuation.
Warranty is five years on the full machine. Spread $2,100 across a tested 20-year lifespan and the cost-per-year is $105 — the math that justifies premium German engineering.
