About GINZZU dishwashers
When choosing household appliances, our customers pay attention not only to its price and characteristics, they are very interested in whose brand they buy, what country it belongs to and what company offers it.
What is known about the firm “Ginzu”?
GINZZU is a Taiwanese brand of electronics and home appliances. The company of the same name was founded in 2009. Its products are distinguished by a good combination of quality and price. Country – manufacturer “Ginzu” – China.
Overview of models and consumer reviews
The GINZZU dishwasher range includes models of all sizes and installation types. According to the installation method, two groups of PMM are distinguished:
- Embedded. This option is suitable for small kitchens, as well as for thoughtful interiors, in which all the furnishings and appliances are harmoniously assembled into a single complex.

The manufacturer also offers PMM, which differ in width:
- full-size – with a width of 60 cm;
- narrow – with a width of 45 cm.
