Miele PFD 404

I covered the Miele PFD 404 because it’s one of the few dishwashers that can legitimately wash and sanitize a load in about six minutes. The problem is it’s commercial at heart—240V/30A power, a dedicated hot water line for peak performance, and commercial racks—so the real cost and compromises don’t fit most homes.
