Review of the dishwasher Indesit DSR 15B3 RU: modest functionality at a modest price

Comparison with similar models

The comparison was based on four narrow free-standing dishwashers from the budget segment. Their cost in stores is about the same.

When comparing dishwashers, brand reliability should be taken into account. INDESIT has been producing this equipment for many decades and has accumulated technological experience to maximize its service life (+)

The model under consideration turned out to be in a winning position in the following parameters:

1. The presence of a clean water sensor that saves resources with lightly soiled dishes.
2. Support for fast and economical washing.
3. Possibility to change the height of the dish tray.
4. The presence of pre-rinsing.

The machine does not have strictly individual positive features, but it has good performance among competitors.

There are a lot of downsides to this model as well. These include:

1. A high rate of noise, which can interfere if you want to sleep after eating.
2. The absence of a delicate mode that allows you to safely wash decorative dishes with an easily damaged coating.
3. A modest number of modes, the lack of the possibility of their adjustment.
4. There is no delay start, allowing you to schedule the inclusion of a loaded machine in advance.
5. Detergent, salt and rinse aid must be loaded into separate containers, which increases the preparation time of the device for operation. In other models, 3-in-1 products can be used.
6. Lack of hot water connection.

Compared models have a comparable price and size. They are made according to one design option, so the main parameter when choosing the proposed equipment is functionality and ease of operation.

Will this machine appeal to people who do not like to deal with the technical nuances of household equipment?

Dishwashing appliances from Indesit of this series can easily cope with most food stains without the need to adjust the washing time and water temperature

1st place - Candy CDCF 6

It's an old $180 desktop dishwasher. It appeared on the market a few years ago, and during this time many people managed to buy it. Therefore, this model has collected a lot of positive customer reviews, and 90% of them are positive.

Customers are satisfied with the quality and reliability of this model. 2.5-3 years of service without any breakdowns and problems - this is about this model

now dishwasher Candy CDCF machine 6 is still on sale, so if you want to buy a reliable device for washing dishes, we advise you to pay attention to this model first of all

Dishwasher INDESIT DSR 15B3 RU, narrow, white

I keep dreaming about the built-in kitchen, but for now we are content with what we have. As a result, they took a dishwasher, of course not built-in, because. there is nowhere to build it in... On the one hand, I understand that this is a compromise solution, but on the other hand, I can’t even throw a stone into her garden. Yes, the design is not a fountain, but I really like how it washes. This is probably the only thing that I took without paying attention to the appearance. I was advised by her friend, who is directly related to the assembly of such machines. He pointed me to this one. It is simple to use, but why are there only 5 programs. Now irons are harder than she is. According to the process, everything is standard. During the day, we accumulate dishes, put them directly into it. By the way, when I wash off excess food, when not. Well, it depends on the time. I noticed that when excess food is washed away, it is cleaner inside. But there is no smell. I'll think about how I'm going to do it. The program is put and forward. Depending on the time, take out clean and dry dishes. I never noticed rinse aid on the dishes. Washes to a squeak. How I will part with it, I do not even know. It's very good.

Water consumption

One of the main questions of the consumer is how much water is consumed by the dishwasher per cycle, is there really a saving?

In the machine, the water is not drained until the end of work, it only passes through special filters, and is again fed clean to the top to rinse the dishes. Additional savings are also formed due to the fact that washing takes place with the help of sprinklers, that is, the dishes are washed not with a jet, as in manual washing, but with small sprays. You can reduce water consumption by 20-30% by choosing economical modes of operation. It should be noted that the size of the device does not play a special role.

Pay attention to the level of efficiency before buying, as a rule, it is indicated by letters:

1. A, B, C - dishwashers that consume from 9 to 16 liters are called highly economical machines;
2. D, E - machines that use water in a volume of up to 20 liters are of the medium economic category;
3. F, G - dishwashers that consume up to 26 liters of water per cycle are low-economic.

Class A dishwashers not only save water, but also lead in terms of minimal energy consumption.

What to look for when buying?

Before buying, you should know how many dishes you plan to put in the machine, pay attention to the number of baskets for this. The dimensions and type of dishwasher depend on the intended installation location, one buyer prefers built-in appliances, the other a desktop option. Notice how quiet the dishwasher cycle is.

The control panel should be clear and convenient

Notice how quiet the dishwasher cycle is. The control panel should be clear and convenient. It is better to abandon complex technology if you are unable to make out most of the buttons.

It is better to abandon complex technology if you are unable to make out most of the buttons.

The control panel should be clear and convenient. It's best to skip the complicated technique if you can't make out most of the buttons.

Entrust the installation and connection of the dishwasher to professionals, this will give you an additional guarantee and confidence in the correct operation of the machine. Ask them to run the machine once in front of you to verify that the machine is working.

Possible malfunctions

To know in advance what problems may affect you and what spare parts you will have to buy, check out the most common breakdowns:

• If the PMM does not heat the water, the heating element has failed. The reason for this is the poor quality of water, improper care and, less often, factory defects.
• If the machine does not take on water, the problem is a clogged mesh filter on the inlet hose. Constant cleaning or installation of a filter on the intake hose is needed.
• If the equipment does not work and does not turn on at all, there can be many problems - from a clogged filter to a failure of the control board.

Follow the rules of use, do not neglect periodic cleaning, and even a dishwasher like Indesit will last a long time. Happy shopping and enjoy!

Dishwasher review Indesit DSR 15B3 RU

Outwardly, in its design, the Indesit DSR 15B3 RU dishwasher does not differ much from similar models, but has compact dimensions. For washing dishes, it provides 5 user modes that can be used to clean tableware and kitchen utensils. Among them are:

• daily routine;
• enhanced mode;
• economy mode;
• delicate mode;
• extra soak.

The model does not provide for the possibility of partial loading of the basket. The choice of modes and other operations are carried out using a set of buttons on the control panel.

The dishwasher Indesit DSR 15B3 RU has a partial protection against leakage in the form of special tapes that seal the body.
As for the internal equipment of the model, its chamber is made of stainless steel, and this greatly extends its life and ensures hygiene, compared to plastic, which accumulates dirt and unpleasant odors.

For glass products, in particular glasses, a special holder is provided in the package, which further enhances the safety of the machine, because the dishes will not break in it.

How to load the dishwasher Indesit DSR 15B3 EN

Criterias of choice

If you have never had a dishwasher and you do not know what to look for and what are the differences between different dishwashers, then this section is just for you. Here I will consider the various parameters of the machines, considering which it will be easier for you to choose the most suitable model.

The size

We have already touched on the issue of size a little, let's dwell on it in more detail. All dishwashers are divided into full-sized, narrow and compact. Full-sized models are the largest, their width is about 60 cm, the standard height is 82-85 cm. They are designed for 12-14 sets of dishes, therefore they are suitable for large families. You should definitely take into account the size of your kitchen when choosing this unit, because in a small area a full-sized model simply does not fit. Narrow models usually measure 45 cm wide and 82-85 high.By removing the top cover, the device fits into the kitchen set and does not take up much space. Compact dishwashers are the smallest, they are also called "dishwasher under the sink", because the size allows you to install them in a kitchen cabinet or on a free table. But, since they are only 43-45 cm high, there is not much room for dishes - only 4-6 sets. Consider this, because if you have a large family, such a device will obviously not be enough.

Control

Convenience and simplicity - these are the main requirements for the control system, and just the electronic control fully meets these wishes. Usually it is presented in all models of narrow dishwashers. The only caveat is the presence or absence of a display.

Drying method

There are three types of drying: condensing, active and turbo drying. For narrow dishwashers, both expensive and not very, the condensation drying method is typical. Moisture evaporates on its own due to temperature differences between the walls of the chamber and the dishes themselves. As a result, water condenses on the wall and flows down the drain. The advantage of this method is that it does not require additional energy costs and there are no special devices that take up space in the device. Another thing is active drying and turbo drying. The active one works by heating the bottom of the chamber and increasing the temperature, which causes the water to actively evaporate, and the operation of the turbo dryer is based on forced air blowing of dishes using a built-in fan. One and the second method use a lot of electricity and are used only in full-size models.

Modes of operation and economy

On average, dishwashers use 5-10 work programs.They, in fact, differ only in temperature and duration of operation. But in more expensive models there are additional purity sensors, which, if necessary, increase the time of the program.

Let's look at the main operating modes of dishwashers:

• pre-rinse - washes the dishes with cold water from large food particles;
• normal washing - the program is performed at a temperature of 65 degrees;
• intensive washing - based on raising the water temperature to 70 degrees, due to which the most serious pollution is removed;
• delicate mode - designed for fragile dishes that are afraid of high temperatures.

The efficiency of the device largely depends on the selected program and the degree of loading. But strangely enough, even at maximum load, energy efficiency is at the highest level and corresponds to A class.

Pros and cons

It is worth considering a dishwasher for purchase in the context of real positive and negative points. The more weighty the former and the more insignificant the latter, the more the scales are inclined towards the possibility of a purchase.

Positive sides:

The choice of chassis form factors is unlimited: full-size and narrow embedded machines, compact and stationary designs.

• Relatively low price - Indesit machines, and both washing and dishwashers are one of the most inexpensive.
• Optimal modes in sufficient quantity. Everything you need without overpaying for extra functionality.
• Possibility to choose units with or without display.

• High competitive energy efficiency classes, washing and drying - not lower than A.
• There are models with standard connection and with connection to a hot water pipe.
• Masters of service centers note that the electronics used in the assembly of machines are quite resistant to voltage drops in the mains.

It is difficult not to find cons in budget technology. We confine ourselves to the most objective remarks:

• Often the decibels stated in the user manual are lower than the actual noise level.
• The assembly in Poland somewhat affected the quality of the product. Most often, problems arise with the main module, but breakdowns in small things, due to factory defects, are not excluded.

Programs and washing modes

The PMM is controlled using a push-button control panel. The set parameters and the course of the cycle are displayed on the electronic display. There are 5 modes for washing dishes:

• "Daily" - the standard washing mode.
• "Intensive" - ​​program for heavily soiled dishes.
• "Delicate" - a special mode designed for washing fragile dishes.
• "Eco" is a program for saving electricity and water.
• "Preliminary" - soaking greasy stains.

For convenience, touch sensors are provided in the PMM. They control the consumption of detergents at each stage of washing dishes. Additionally, salt supply adjustment is provided to reduce its consumption and moderately reduce water hardness.

PMM provides a special mode "Delay start". With it, you can postpone the washing of dishes for 3, 6 and 9 hours. For example, by setting the cycle to start at night, you can save on your water and electricity bills.

Pros and cons

The dishwasher Indesit DSR 15B3 RU is not without advantages. The hostesses note the high quality of washing and drying dishes, the large capacity of the chamber, and the convenient location of the baskets.Other advantages of the model include:

• the possibility of transferring the beginning of the cycle to a convenient time;
• the presence of an economy mode;
• support for natural drying;
• compact dimensions;
• attractive design;
• cycles are not too long.

Shutdown

When the dishwasher finishes the cycle, the used water is drained into the sewer pipes, the drying phase begins. After its completion, the device emits a signal and finishes work. On the control panel there are convenient indicators for the end of the program, using the settings you can change the volume of the sound signal or turn off the notification of the end of work. This is especially true when loading dishes at night.

After the machine has come to a complete stop, press the on/off button of the machine. It is recommended to wait about 15 minutes before taking out the dishes, after drying they can be very hot, and some types of dishes become brittle. It is better to open the door after the machine finishes working, so the dishes will cool faster. Remember, if the equipment is not turned off, this leads to additional energy costs.

Sometimes consumers are faced with the problem of turning off the machine. If the dishwasher does not turn off after the cycle is completed, the electronics are most likely out of order. This can happen when food residues clog the water drain hole, therefore, the correct programmed shutdown is not possible. It is not recommended to disassemble the dishwasher yourself, if it does not turn off, follow the safety rules.

User manual

The kit comes with an instruction manual, which should be studied in detail for proper use of the device.

The instruction contains numerous points, it is important to pay special attention to the following recommendations:

• For washing dishes, you need to use high-quality and special means for PPM.
• Do not overload the chamber with dishes, it is better to divide it into 2 sinks.
• There must be a distance between plates and cutlery, otherwise the washing quality will decrease.
• Before loading the dishes in the baskets, clean them of food residues. In this case, it will be possible to prevent rapid clogging of the filter.
• The dirtiest dishes should be placed in the center of the basket.
• For washing porcelain and glass items, use the delicate setting.

A review of the Indesit 15B3 RU dishwasher made it clear that the model, with its compact dimensions, has good capacity and effectively copes with washing dishes. The technique will be the best choice for those who are looking for a reliable PMM for a small kitchen.

What is the dishwashing time

The process of washing dishes in a dishwasher is practically no different from washing dishes by hand, and consists of the following steps:

• sometimes soaking;
• the washing up;
• rinsing;
• drying (or wiping with a towel).

Each of these stages lasts a certain time, which depends on the selected washing mode.More specifically, the temperature to which the water is heated. Accordingly, the higher it is, the longer the washing cycle will last. On average, this can take from 15 to 25 minutes. In the event of a malfunction of the heating element, the dishwasher may not start the wash cycle, giving an error, in which case information on how to replace the heating element in a Bosch dishwasher will be useful.

The stage of rinsing the dishes in the machine is quite important, since the powder in which the dishes are washed can remain on the dishes and enter the human body. Chemicals are harmful to health. The rinsing process takes about 20 minutes on average. And, at the end of the cycle, the dishes are dried, this mode is available in any dishwasher, only in some models in the accelerated washing mode, drying does not turn on. In general, it takes about 15-20 minutes for the dishes to dry well.
