There’s no guarantee any washing machine will pump this far up as they are all only designed to pump a few feet. Most will pump higher, but at a reduced rate. There’s no need for manufacturers to make any washing machine pump capable of pumping that high so they don’t. I would expect a dishwasher could fare even worse.
Miele have announced several model changes from their washing machine range. Some models have been discontinued and others have been replaced by new models. If you find a discontinued model on sale don’t let it put you off buying because Miele will still support the machine throughout its life. One of the models replaced is the W 3740 which I reviewed here – W 3740 review
Model numbers and serial numbers for washing machines are almost always behind the door or on the control panel although sometimes the number written on the control panel or dispenser drawer isn’t a model number but a model range ( Some washing machine manufacturers put a model number on the front of the machine which is useless ).
