Users want only the best dishwashers to meet every requirement. But which dishwasher is best? What to look for when choosing?
In the article, we will consider by what criteria you need to choose a PMM, which manufacturer to give preference to. Let’s get acquainted with the most popular models of 2017.
Which dishwasher is better to buy
Is there a better dishwashing machine? Specifically, one model does not exist, because different parameters, dimensions and functions are important for each. If you are convinced that one of the dishwashers is “the best”, do not believe it. This is just a marketing ploy.
We need to understand what technology gives us and what disadvantages it has.
Advantages:
- Convenience. Free time from washing dishes you can devote to important things. It is enough to load the devices into the camera and select the desired program. The machine is able to disinfect appliances at high temperatures, which is not possible with hand washing.
- Saving. Few people pay attention to the counters, spending water for washing. Thanks to the recirculation system, much less water is used.
Unfortunately, not all dishes can be washed in PMM. This is the main disadvantage. Tin, wooden, aluminum utensils are not recommended to be loaded into the chamber, so you will have to wash them by hand.
Among the user reviews, you can find complaints about stains and streaks on the surface of the devices. Why does this happen:
- wrong detergent selected, not enough rinse aid;
- the wrong mode is set;
- incorrect installation of the basket in the chamber.
Best Firm
The leader among users is the German brand Bosch (Bosch). A wide variety of options, among which you can find both budget cars and premium-class equipment.
The positions of Siemens (Siemens) are strong – the same manufacturer as Bosch, as well as the Scandinavian plant Asko. TM Miele takes pride of place in the premium segment.
Good quality PMM from Gorenie, Electrolux and Whirlpool are in the middle segment. Their technology and functionality is not inferior to expensive options.
Budget equipment is also popular and of no less quality. These are the brands Candy and Hans.
In dishwashers of any brands there are pros and cons. It is better to consider the individual characteristics of each model.
Types of dishwashers
Before choosing a technique, decide on the place of its installation and the possibility of connection. You can choose from these types:
- Freestanding. The standard height and width of the case is 60×60 cm. A full-sized PMM can accommodate from 10 to 15 sets.
- Embedded. The narrow body with a width of 45 cm will perfectly fit into the kitchen set, and if necessary, hide behind the outer facade. Washes 8 to 10 sets per cycle.
- Compact. These are desktop models that can also fit under the sink or in any cabinet. 4 to 6 sets.
Which one is better for washing dishes? Let us consider in more detail the criteria for choosing a technique.
What to look for when choosing
To decide which car is right for you, it is important to understand what you expect from it. What should be the load, type of installation, features, cost? Find answers to questions, and then go to the store. We wrote about installation types above.
- Price. Not always high cost indicates excellent quality. Cheat often goes for the brand. Therefore, study the technical characteristics of the PMM and compare them with other models.
- Number of programs. Choose for yourself the main modes, without which you can not do. Most often, users set “Quick wash”, “Eco-program”, “Pre-soak”, “Half load”.
- Washing class, drying type. There are stickers on the body of the equipment that contain information about the classes. For example, A is the best quality of washing, drying. B is a little worse. Drying can be natural, not consuming electricity. But the dishes take a long time to dry. Turbo dryer uses an additional heater, but the result is ready in a few minutes.
- Economy. The most efficient machine is considered to be A+++, followed by A++, A.
- Protection. PMM must receive mandatory protection against leaks (full or partial) “Aquastop”. Also, the door and panel can be blocked from accidental pressing / opening.
Additional functions
Manufacturers are constantly developing new technologies to provide the user with a comfortable experience:
- Vario speed. Intensive water supply at high temperature allows you to wash appliances in a shortened cycle. Saving water and electricity.
- glass protection. Provides careful attitude to delicate dishes (glass, crystal, porcelain).
- Self cleaning. Convenient development. The user does not need to constantly clean the drain filter, the system does this automatically.
- ExtraDry. Delicate cleaning of plastic appliances.
- Start delay. Load plates and set a convenient time to start the cycle.
- Half load. If the dishes have not accumulated for a full cycle, then set the load to 1/2. So the machine will spend 30% less resources.
