Do not, repeat DO NOT buy this machine. As good as it looks it is totally inadequate as a dishwasher. Whoever designed it has clearly never seen or used a dishwasher in their lives. The wire racks are so shallow none of your plates will stand up properly. If you do mange to get them to stay put (only just) using an adjustable extra rack that lies along the bottom, you then find your plates won't clear the rotating arm!! Even with the top rack 'tilt' function on. The cutlery basket is stupidly small (and you have to decide where you want it for each wash as it is 'floating') All of the buttons are inside the door rim, so you have no idea when it's finished - unless you stand in the kitchen for the duration of the cycle and it will beep when it's done. this means if you accidently open it before it has finished you have to wait for 1 minute before closing the door again or it won't pick up where it left off. On the other hand, if you don't get the door open sharpish after it's finished you will find everything sweaty later on. It is also taller than a standard dishwasher so won't fit into a designated space, it's freestanding only, it does tell you this, but still annoying. Please do not be tempted by this machines good looks. You will be horrified at it's performance. Smeg are not one bit interested in the design faults in this machine, they keep telling me I am not entitled to a refund "Just because I don't like it" IT'S NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE!
