At a glance
This 45cm fully integrated dishwasher is a strong fit for compact kitchens, apartments and smaller households that still want Miele build quality. It offers 10 place settings, quiet 46dB performance, a cutlery tray and a fast 58-minute Quick Power Wash cycle. Its key limitation is capacity: larger families or heavy entertainers may find the narrower 45cm size less spacious than a standard 60cm model.
What it’s great for
- Compact kitchens
- Daily dishwashing
- Apartment living
- Small household cleaning
- Fast wash needs
- Built-in kitchen fit-outs
Where it works best
- Apartments
- Compact homes
- Small family kitchens
- Open-plan kitchens
- Narrow cabinetry layouts
Who it’s for
- Apartment dweller
- Small household
- Couple
- Downsizer
- Compact kitchen renovator
- Design-conscious homeowner
Things to consider
The slim 45cm format is ideal for tight spaces, but it holds fewer dishes than a standard 60cm dishwasher, so larger households may need to run it more often.
Kitchen integration suitability
Excellent for compact built-in kitchens and narrow cabinetry; requires a custom external door panel.
Family size fit
Best for 1-3 person households
Water efficiency score
8.5/10 - 4.5 star WELS rating with 9L water use per wash on Eco.
Noise level vs category
7.5/10 - 46dB is quietly suited to open-plan use, though not as low as the quietest premium models.
Ease of use rating
8/10 - simple five-programme setup, practical cutlery tray and useful wash options make everyday loading and cycle selection straightforward.
Key benefits
- Quick Power Wash: Cleans and dries moderately soiled crockery and glasses in 58 minutes for faster turnaround.
- 45cm fully integrated design: Fits narrower kitchen niches where a standard 60cm dishwasher will not fit.
- 10 place settings: Handles everyday dishwashing needs for small households without taking up full-width space.
- Cutlery tray: Frees up lower basket space for plates, bowls and cookware while keeping utensils organised.
- 46dB noise level: Runs quietly enough to suit open-plan kitchen and living areas.
- 4.5 star WELS water rating: Uses 9L per wash cycle on the Eco programme to help reduce water use.
- Five wash programmes: Covers daily loads, heavier pots and delicate items with dedicated cycle choices.
- Waterproof system: Adds extra protection against leaks for greater day-to-day peace of mind.
Q: Does the Miele G 5481 SCVi SL Active come with a door panel included?
A: No. This is a fully integrated dishwasher, so the outer cabinet-matching door panel is not included with the appliance. That matters if you want it to blend into joinery, because the visible front needs to be supplied separately.
Q: Is this 45cm Miele dishwasher suitable for replacing a 60cm model?
A: No. This model is designed for a 45cm-wide niche, so it is significantly narrower than a standard 60cm dishwasher. It suits compact kitchens, but a 60cm opening will usually need cabinetry changes before it will look properly integrated.
Q: What sort of dishes is QuickPowerWash best for on this model?
A: QuickPowerWash is best for everyday, moderately soiled crockery and glasses when you want a faster turnaround. It is designed to deliver cleaning and drying in 58 minutes, but heavily baked-on pots may still need a longer standard programme.
Q: How does the cutlery tray affect space inside this 45cm dishwasher?
A: The cutlery tray helps free up lower basket space because knives, forks and spoons sit in their own top-level tray instead of a basket below. In a slim 45cm dishwasher, that can improve flexibility, though taller items in the upper area may need repositioning.
Q: What does the hot water connection mean for day-to-day running costs?
A: It means the dishwasher can be connected to a hot water supply instead of heating all water internally. Miele states electricity use can be reduced by as much as 50% when using a hot water connection, depending on the efficiency of the household hot water system.
Q: Can the upper basket be adjusted to fit taller dishes or glasses?
A: Yes. The upper basket is height-adjustable, which helps when loading taller stemware above or bulkier plates and serving pieces below. That extra flexibility is especially useful in a 45cm dishwasher, where every centimetre of loading space matters.
