I feel this is not a very well designed dishwasher. For starters if you have 26cm plates you will have to lift up the middle basket, no problem, but them you get a lot less space in the middle basket, so much so that if you put a mug in the middle it will hit the handle for the cutlery tray. Cutlery tray is a waste of time because if you close the draw, the cutlery tends to fall over each other and you end up with some not behind washed properly. Bottom basket is okay but it is quite difficult to place pots etc if you gave plates in already. Very much like playing Tetris just trying to get things to fit. I would say stay away from this one. I changed for the Hotpoint slimline dishwasher and I gave been most impressed with that model
