Dishwashers > AEG-Electrolux Dishwashers

An expensive mistake.

Advantages: Better than handwashing everything.
Disadvantages: Doesn't work properly. Doesn't clean very well. Clogs up readily. Falls apart easily.

This was not cheap, but has been a disappointment from the moment we got it to replace the old thing we had that did stalwart work for many years. AEG used to have a good name, but Electrolux has taken it over. It complains the spray arm is blocked many times during the cycle when there is nothing wrong. The top tray is not secure and has dropped. It doesn't get the dishes clean, often leaving greasy marks, and does not dry properly. If the stuff ...
...work. We hate it. It hasn't actually stopped working entirely yet, but is so annoying and useless that we are going to buy a new one, Bosch or Meile, tomorrow. We have a colourful range of invective for this heap of f****** S*** that we have wasted our money on. ...

Review of AEG-Electrolux Favorit 50870 M

Cleaning like you have never seen before.

Advantages: Cleans to perfection
Disadvantages: Not that cheap

I bought the AEG 54750 VI and I have to admit I am very impressed especially after a bad experience with Bosch! The AEG passed its first challenge with flying colours - I loaded it up with really messy plates, trust me they weren't pleasant, and it got them clean to handwash standards! I was delighted but this feeling was soon topped as my wine glasses came out glistening, they actually looked brand new! I know from bitter experience that it is sometimes ...

Review of AEG FAV54750VI

Unfortunatly, the Beko DWD4310 does not live up to expectations.

Advantages: Very easy to use, Cleaning is very simple, Intense wash is good.
Disadvantages: Can be unsafe for multiple reasons, Colder washes are poor.

... Performance/Quality The Beko DWD4310 has 4 wash settings, a prewash designed to pre rinse heavily soiled items, a rapid cycle that is designed to wash plates which are lightly soiled, an economy setting which washes at a relatively hot temperature and the intensive wash which is designed for heavily soiled pans and plates. Indeed, these work well, though the rapid wash and economy wash can regularly leave dirty marks on even relatively clean ...
...as a precaution which I should not really have to do. There are two sections, a roll out section for plates which has a divided compartment for cutlery and a top section for cups and dishes. However a problem does occur following an economy or intensive wash. When finished I found that plates, cups and glasses were still too hot to handle even an hour after the cycle is fully complete. I have checked this regularly and it happened each time. So whilst ...

Review of Beko DWD4310

excelent value for money but shop around for it

Advantages: cheap and does what it supposed to do
Disadvantages: noisy

...and found out that this hotpoint was the cheapest and the best - I then went to my local Ken White's and found one for £289 which was much cheaper than the cheapest I found on line into the boot of the car it was put and it was then instalation time! the install info didn't make any sence as it seemed to want you to put a big piece of paper on the top of the machine and screw something to it, not that there was anything to screw in - after a bit ...
...the install was easy but my OH had to do it as despite being a lady who is more than capabile of doing this type of thing the machine is heavy so hired muscle maybe required ;-) The machine is easy to use, it only had 4 settings and we stick to the same setting each time, it has a warning light to tell you when the salt needs filling up which is good. The dispencer for the dishwasher tab is big enough to take all different brands, some need a bit ...

Review of Hotpoint LFS114

Fisher & Paykel stainless steel double drawer dishwasher.

Advantages: Double drawer, independent operating untis in one applicance. Removeable trays - easy to clean.
Disadvantages: Needed replacement parts within the first two years of is life which I had to pay for.

I have had my Fisher & Paykel dishwasher for seven years and overall I'm happy with it. I had a couple of teething problems in the first two years with seals needing to be replaced and one of the motors which I think is a little poor on the part of the manufacturers particularly charging for replaement parts for a machine that clearly hadn't had massive use ( I do not have a family or throw thrice weekely dinner parties!). The product in itself ...
...units are very handy. It has aged well and I'm hoping that it will not give me any further issues in at least the next 3-4 years as the price one pays should guarantee a reasonable lifespan. If it does give me any probelsm it will likely be relaced by a Miele - depending on the level of support offered by the manufacturers/UK maintentance team. ...
