Hisense 16 Place Settings Freestanding Standard Dishwasher, White - Auto Dry Automatic door opening - D Rated, HS643D60WUK, 598 x 599 x 846 mm (L x W x H) [Energy Class D] [Energy Class D]

Purchased as I needed a replacement for my old dishwasher that stopped working. I didn't want to spend too much and this one seemed to fit the bill for a speedy, cost-effective replacement. I've had it three months now and I'm really pleased with it. HIGHLIGHTS... It's super quiet (hardly even notice it's on) / sleek minimal design / digital control panel (in top of door) is really easy to use / cleans well / ...my favourite feature is the cutlery tray at the top, which eliminates the need for a cutlery basket and cleans the cutlery better. There is a slight price to pay for the cutlery tray though - it takes up a couple of inches of vertical space, which means that you need to make a choice between large plates and tall glasses. In order to accommodate plates over 25cm without the spinny-washer-arm-thingy hitting them, you need to move the upper basket higher (there are two heights you can have it at and it's easy to move the basket from one height to another). But that then means you won't get tall glasses in the upper basket. So there's a choice to me made. Personally, I prefer handwashing nice glassware anyway so it's not an issue for me, but it's something to be aware of. There are reviews that mention various problems and error codes, but I've not had any issues in three months, and the manual explains how to deal with any error codes. As for people saying items come out wet, I think that's just something that happens with any dishwasher if you open the door too soon after the cycle has ended. I always leave mine untouched for an hour after it's finished and everything is perfectly dry by then. Performance-wise, everything I put in comes out sparkling clean (I mainly use the 90 min cycle). The colour is a very cool white (almost with a slight grey tinge) so maybe something to bear in mind if you have warm white/cream kitchen units. I don't think you can get better at this price point, and I'm happy to recommend it.

Delivered on time, very easy to use, just turn on the button which is located at the top of the door, press P for programme, I always choose the 30 minute one as I don't put in much, press half cycle. It is done in minutes. Absolutely brilliant, and any glasses I have put in come out sparkling clean, as do any of my new pet bowls. It's excellent for keeping things all clean and sterile, for my dishes and the pets.

This dishwasher cleans really well and has quite a few useful programmes. All in all a good machine with excellent build quality. Great display. As with most dishwashers, quite easy to install in a standard kitchen undertop "gap". Considering the price, excellent value.But if I'm being picky, I would say it does have a few annoying but relatively minor issues:1) the course filter is quite small and is easily blocked causing an error (really easy to clean it but the manual does not tell you how to clear the error so I have to restart the program from the beginning2) the upper basket has some side "shelves" in common with most full size dishwashers) intended for small cups or to hold the base of a wine glass. But they never stay in place and regularly fall off. Thinking of using a tie wrap to keep them place... A really small issue in the grand scheme of things but very annoying!!3) it has the ability to use hot water input - one of the big selling features for me but what the "adverts" fail to say is that this is only more economical if you have a system such as an oil burner rather than a gas combi-boiler otherwise it is probably cheaper to have the dishwasher heat the water.

The dishwasher itself is fine. It does all the things one would expect from a dishwasher. It washes dishes and other items placed in it.1. Be sure to not place a large plate in front of the dishwasher tablet dispenser otherwise it won't open.2. The cutlery goes in a tray at the top. You may prefer to utilise a cutlery rack. We kept ours from our previous dishwasher.3. Things go in dirty and come out clean. Nice job.The problem is with Amazon, the checkout process and the way they manage contracts.On checkout, I booked for installation and removal of the previous dishwasher. Surprisingly, it cost £0.00 which is very cheap considering the amount of time and cost involved in removing a dishwasher, disposing of it ethically and installing a new dishwasher. Not just that but the delivery was the very next day which was extremely quick.I imagine it is extremely competitive for suppliers to get that gig.When the gentleman arrived the next day - although he was polite and friendly - he pointed at a bit of pipe under the sink and explained that he would be unable to uninstall and remove the existing dishwasher. I did not support this view at the time. However, on reflection Amazon needs to pay delivery drivers and other Amazon employees proper salaries so that they can joyfully use their skills to uninstall and remove dishwashers as well as install them. This takes time.Delivery drivers are under enormous pressure to meet time deadlines. They do not have time to deliver, remove old appliances and install new ones.If you want that kind of service go to John Lewis. In the meantime, I hope Amazon delivery drivers join a union and get some proper job security.

Very nice dishwasher so far. It's good value for money, compared to the older dishwasher removed. It's quiet with a lovely cutlery rack that slides in and out at the top. The free fitting was faultless with two lovely men from Milton Keynes. Miles away from my location and they were very efficient. I'd highly recommend this dishwasher and the two polite and efficient installers. Credit due to Amazon for that. I must add that the eco wash at 1 hour and 30 mins is more than adequate for pre rinsed pots.
