I recommend you don't buy this Miele product! If you do you are destine to be frustrated. If you already brought this horrible machine certainly don't waist anymore money by buying accessory products.

not needed, and even if you insist on a warm cup, you can fill one with hot water from the dispenser, let it sit for a minute or so and use it for a coffee.

Yes! I have one in the bathroom and one in the living room near the chair where I sit to watch tv. It's great because it heats up so quickly.. Don't have to leave it on all of the time. I also bought an infrared heater/fireplace look for my son's RV. It has a fan on it and makes the room really cozy. Love this little Optimus.

No it does not. It doesn't know how hot to make the room. You can turn it off, if it gets too hot. IMO, the best place for this is in a bathroom, where you want to it be warmer to begin with or under a badly insulated window, where the rising heat offsets the drafty air.

my whole house has the central air for 78 Fahrenheit always, and it's on my dresser next to all my skin care products. i never keep in the fridge, the dresser is far away from the window (far away from the heat). for me it's fine without the fridge.

whichever mondel that you are thinking about getting, my recommendation is shop for something eles, will not heat up a room at all...

I've had mine for about the 3 months now, it's held up very well in that time. Drawers still glide smoothly. The only thing I've had to watch out for is cutting my knuckles when changing the sheets. The edges of the wood panels are somewhat sharp, and cause scrapes if you're not careful.

I keep it in a drawer by my bedside in my nightstand- if your house is not cool I would recomend putting it in the fridge or at least a cool place..

No....use it like it is. Congrats...it is one of the best. I have many...lived in Asia for 15 years. This is a really nice addition to the kitchen.

Yes. The cabinet is always cool to the touch. Very good source of supplemental heat. I ran two last winter, sometimes around the clock, with no problems.

There is a wooden spatula, but you could just use a spoon, chopstick or other common household utensil. It comes in a little tin and I just heated that up on the stove, no need for a warming unit, though if you wanted to spend the money on one so you could do it in the bathroom that would work as well. No strips are included.

I just keep it in my utensils drawer and my is like 1 years old never has malfunction, if it gives you peace on mind then put on the fridge!

Nothing objectionable at all for us and we used it most days last winter & spring. We discontinued use during the summer, of course, and began the towel warming scenario again a few weeks ago. It can't compete with a real clothes dryer but it's certainly a lot cheaper to operate cost wise than one (and our dryer isn't close to our bathroom anyway). Just remember to allow warm up time from a cold start and reposition the towel from time to time for best results. We love ours but have never harbored unrealistic expectations at to how "hot" our towels are. It's loads better than a cold or cool room temperature towel and feels so marvelous to have a warm towel on the body when stepping out of the shower.

No There is a built-in stopper that keeps the drawer from opening too far and (maybe) falling out. You have to manually release it before you can take the drawer all the way out.

You can get it without- which I recommend. Look for the version without, because there is much more usable space under the bed if you just leave it open. The drawers are small. Other than that, the bed is awesome. Had it a year and 0 regrets. Very sturdy and the kids love it

Yes, you do not have to have the heat on. This is a Wonderful machine and worth every penny!

I didn't have to use mine for over a year after I bought it, and it worked beautifully. I don't have to use it daily so store it in a drawer and it's just as good next time. It lasted through several bouts, now on my third pack.
