Yes. It is designed for the gap between domestic appliances and larger industrial machines, with an 8 kg load capacity and an 86-minute full-load cycle. It suits businesses such as B&Bs, care homes, salons, restaurants and small hotels that need dependable daily drying but do not have the space or demand for a 25 kg commercial dryer.

The dryer runs from a standard 230 V, 13 amp socket and has a total electrical load of 2.99 kW, so it does not require three-phase power. However, it must be connected to external venting that discharges outside air. A venting kit is required but is not included, so confirm the correct kit and route before ordering.

PerfectDry uses moisture sensing to control the drying process rather than relying solely on a fixed time. This helps prevent over-drying while reducing the risk of items being removed damp, supporting more consistent results across cottons, synthetics, delicates and easy-care fabrics. For businesses processing varied loads, it can also avoid unnecessary energy use after laundry is dry.

This dryer has working dimensions of 596 mm wide, 717 mm deep and 850 mm high, with a 130-litre drum. It is front-loading and can be stacked with compatible Miele PWM washing machines, creating a washer-dryer laundry stack in under one square metre of floor space. Allow additional access space for loading, servicing and the external vent connection.

The language-neutral M Select rotary control uses icons rather than on-screen text, helping staff select preset programmes without extensive operator training. As with any vented commercial tumble dryer, routine cleaning and inspection should follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and the external vent route should be kept clear so airflow is not restricted. This supports efficient drying and reliable operation.
