We’ve just had our Miele washing machine repaired under warranty this morning. While the engineer was here, he mentioned the steam programme. We’ve never used it but he said it gets creases out of things. I read up on it and you use it at the end of some wash cycles or you can just bung worn but not dirty items in there and it steam freshens 'em without using any detergent. Just tried it on a pair of jeans. Bloody marvellous - I reckon when dry, they won’t even need ironing!
