As with every dishwasher the way you load it is different and takes some getting used to with each different set of plates and dishes in order to get best results. It may have three shelves but depending on the shapes of your bowls and plates you might end up needing all three. Initial results were not good but now we've spaced out the plates we're getting better results. It is very quiet, so quiet that everyone else in the house keeps opening the door whilst its washing and unlike the previous dishwasher where you just shut the door and it carries on this one requires you press start again before opening the door.

It's hard to give a dishwasher a thorough review immediately after purchase because you don't know the answer to the most important question: how long will it last? But there are lots of things to like about this dishwasher. It's spacious and cleans well. The filter mechanism at the bottom is a much better design than my old much more expensive bosch which it replaced. The top tray is good for cutlery, mugs and glasses. The programmes work well. On the minus side the opening for the salt is very small, and the bars are quite far apart, making it hard to clean both very long and very short utensils.

We've only had this dishwasher a week however it works perfectly, everything as described when purchasing and easy to install, even for a non-DIY person like me. Fundamentally the dishwasher does what it's intended to do, cleans the dishes incredibly well, very quiet by comparison to the 8-year old AEG unit it replaced and very happy with our purchase thus far. Only negatives would be that the removable cutlery box is a tad fiddly, no accompanying words within the installation guide (only pictures) and that you need a specialist tool (hexagonal headed screwdriver) to lower the rear leg.

It's a mid-priced DW which was on sale so it's good value. It works really well. The dishes are spotless and an improvement on my old one (9 yrs old). Easy to install.

Good product, easy to use settings and easy to fit.

Really nice product, loads of space, washes well, lots of settings and opens the door when programme finishes. Would recommend for families.

So far so good, cleans well and is so quiet, very happy and efficient service.

Excellent product, impressed with dishwasher's performance.
