Miele was awarded special distinction in the category of Reliability and Lifespan for three appliances, including the G 2002 dishwasher, super large capacity washer/tumble dryer, and the Independence Series bottom-mount refrigerator. "The panel of independent
judges felt the company deserved special mention as Outstanding for these qualities among all the many entries in the appliances category," said Nancy Meyer, editor of New York House magazine.

"They (Miele) are built to last. It's not something you have to throw out in 8 to 10 years," stated Doug Mazeffa, green marketing researcher and one of the five judges from the awards committee. The panel of five experts from architecture and design vetted the international field of entries and debated the environmental impact and issues surrounding each product.
