Lee Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 Hi Guys!We have reached the stage of trying to sort through what to bring and what to leave behind. I know the general feeling is to pack the container as full as possible but for those of you who have made the move, did you have any specific regrets when you arrived about having left/taken an item?Also I have a Miele vacuum cleaner, model S312i - does anybody know whether I would be able to purchase bags for it in Aus or is this one of the items that I should replace once there. Does Aus even have Miele products?I still hear so many conflicting stories about t.v.'s working/not working - should we just bite the bullet and invest in a nice plasma over there rather then cart our 2 big backed ones over?Thanks,Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can tell you however that i have a Miele stove in the apartment we are in and have a look at http://www.miele.com.au/index1.asp maybe that will help you!!CheersCaro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 (edited) You're in luck, Lee! I just checked our Miele vacuum cleaner and it's an "Electronic" 326i . . . . so all the "300' series take the same bag. The bags come in packs of 5 and cost about $15 a time (for 5) Miele have a service dep't down Burbridge Road (now called Sir Donald Bradman Drive) in Mile End South, just a three minute drive west, towards the beach, out of the city centre. You can get anything "Miele" there. I don't know what you intend bringing, but one thing I always say . . . bring anything of family value that has been passed down or is from a loved one. I'm a sentimalist, I know, but some things are just not able to be replaced in future times, no matter how much cash you part with! 99.99% of Sth African TVs will work in Australia, so bring your telly and just use the remote with all the various options to obtain best colour and sound in Australia.
