We are very pleased with the dishwasher, it cleans better than our old machine. The loading of the dishwasher takes a bit of getting used to - but that would be the same with any new machine. The cutlery tray at the bottom is great as it can be moved to make best use of the space and the sliding utensil tray in the top is very useful. The 3D zone wash option ( which engages additional water jets on both levels) works well on dirtier items. The dishwasher is in an open plan kitchen /dining / living area, but we found the dishwasher to be quite enough that it doesn’t cause a problem. The only slight frustration is the spacing on the racks seems tight for some plates and dishes which makes it harder to load.
