Reputable dishwasher manufacturers

All market segments have their own leaders. And dishwashers are no exception - there are manufacturers who have earned the trust of users with the impeccable quality of the products offered.

The best household dishwashers, according to the owners, are produced under the following brands:

1. Asko;
2. miele;
3. Bosch;
4. Siemens;
5. Indesit;
6. Whirlpool;
7. Electrolux;
8. Hotpoint-Ariston.

The devices of the listed brands have good technical and operational characteristics, but the price of some models is not available for everyone.

If you have to choose from budget equipment, then Candy and Flavia will be the undoubted leaders.

Their products are somewhat inferior in quality to more expensive competitors, but the disadvantages are offset by availability and extensive functionality.

With some disadvantages, including noisy work, inconvenient control, you just have to put up with it.

The most budget: Candy CDI 1LS38

If you choose among the new models of dishwashers, then this model from Candy has the most humane price. Candy appliances are in many homes - its washing machines, refrigerators and other appliances have earned a reputation among Russian housewives. Particularly because they are inexpensive.So for this CDI 1LS38 dishwasher, despite the fact that the model is fresh, you will have to pay only 22 thousand rubles.

At the same time, its width is suitable - 60 cm, it can also be built in, the energy consumption class of the machine is A +, and also full protection against leaks: both a sealed case and a stainless chamber. You will have to put up with the noise level (53 dB) and water consumption (10 l), but this, in principle, is not so critical that it does not get into our rating.

conclusions

So, let's list once again the sequence of steps when choosing a dishwasher.

First you need to decide on the built-in and form factor - whether our dishwasher will be wide, narrow, or maybe even compact desktop.
Choose one of the options for organizing the interior space - classic or modern. It depends solely on your personal ideas about convenience, but if in doubt, we would still offer a modern option.
If you are uncompromising in your approach to the quality of washing, take a closer look at the top sprayer: a “rocker” is preferable to nozzles. If you are a supporter of everything new and unknown, a lover of experiments - look for a dishwasher with a more original design of the lower sprayer than the “rocker”.
If the speed of obtaining clean and dry dishes is important, you will need a dishwasher with a turbo dryer (if not, feel free to take a conventional one with a convection dryer, this will save a fairly significant amount).
If a dishwasher with a convection dryer can open the door slightly at the end of washing, this is a useful feature, the dishes will dry faster

But, again, the question is whether speed matters to you at all.
Lazy and squeamish people should pay attention to dishwashers with a self-cleaning filter, otherwise it will have to be removed and cleaned by hand from time to time.
Different dishwashers have different power consumption and water consumption, but, frankly, it is difficult for us to imagine a domestic consumer who would base his choice on these factors. If you are sure about the quality of hot water in the plumbing, you can look at models that connect to hot water - this is a way to save a lot of electricity.
Ease of operation is highly dependent on personal preferences, so there are no alternatives to inspection

As a consolation, we can say that we have not yet met a single dishwasher, the control of which would not allow washing the dishes
All modern models have regular, intensive, delicate and fast programs. If you want to save energy by using a night rate, make sure your dishwasher has a delay start. If you do not run the wash immediately after styling, you will benefit from the rinsing program. If you often need to wash a small amount of dishes, make sure that the dishwasher supports the half load mode.
Modern dishwashers are, in principle, fairly quiet units, so if the machine is in the kitchen, then you will most likely be satisfied with any. If the kitchen is combined with the living room, it is better to choose a particularly quiet one, with a noise level of 45 dB or lower.
Don't skimp on leak protection.If it is possible for it to be complete (both the body and the hoses) - this is the best option.

Brand Leaders Ranking - Consumer's Choice

For more clarity and persuasiveness, it is worth comparing the market shares occupied by the best brands in the segment of 45 cm narrow built-in dishwashers, as of January 2019 (in percentage terms):

• 42% - Bosch assembly in Germany and Slovenia.
• 14% - Hansa Polish assembly.
• 12% - Siemens
• 6% - Electrolux
• 5% - Beko
• 4% - Gorenje

in equal shares of 3%:

- Maunfeld - England;

– Hotpoint-Ariston – Italy;

– Korting – Germany;

– Whirlpool – Polish assembly

5% - other manufacturers.

As you can see, even in such a narrow segment under consideration (compared to the entire niche of dishwashers, including floor-standing and compact dishwashers, which we wrote about in a previous publication), the difference in priorities and distribution of leading “roles” is quite significant. But only one thing can be said with certainty - in all segments of household dishwashers (built-in, floor-standing, compact, various widths and sizes), Bosch is still confidently leading. German practicality, excellent quality and reasonable price are the key to the success of this brand and the high ratings of its products.

What is the best company to choose

The undoubted leaders in the production of dishwashers are the German companies Bosch and Siemens. Other European brands are also considered strong players: Asko, Miele, Hansa. The middle price segment is represented by Whirlpool, Electrolux, Indesit, Gorenje products. The niche of budget dishwashers consists of Midea, Candy, Flavia products.

Most manufacturers produce built-in and freestanding, full-size and compact appliances

Therefore, when choosing dishwasher equipment, initially start from the parameters of your room and pay attention to such indicators as:

• energy efficiency class;
• device functionality;
• the presence of a self-cleaning system and protection against leaks;
• capacity and equipment of the chamber.

The narrow PMM will perfectly fit even into a space limited by a few square meters and will facilitate the everyday life of a small family. The choice of dishwashers with a body width of 45 cm is quite wide: from budget to premium models. In addition, many allow themselves to be built into furniture.

How to choose a dishwasher?

Multiply the number of family members by the number of meals you eat at home and find out what is the minimum number of sets of dishes you need to run the dishwasher once a day. Don't forget that there are also pots, cutting boards, bowls, and so on. On average, a dishwasher, 45 cm wide, fits 7-9 dish sets.

• Energy consumption. The energy class can be from A to A+++. The higher it is, the more economical the machine.
• Water consumption per cycle should not exceed 15 liters. In any case, this is much less than when you wash the dishes by hand.

• Type and class of drying. Most often found in modern models condensation and turbo dryer. In the first case, drying time is much longer. But in modern models there is a new option: after the end of the machine, the door opens slightly and the dishes dry faster. Turbo-drying dishwashers have a built-in fan with warm air.As for the drying class, with class A, the dishes become perfectly dry, and with B they remain slightly damp.
• Noise level should not exceed 45 dB.
• A very important parameter, which is definitely not worth saving - leakage protection. It happens full and partial.

• Convenient enough when the dishwasher has display, because then you can see how much time is left until the end of the cycle. In some built-in models, a light projection of numbers on the floor is provided.
• If you live alone or together and do not like to heat dirty dishes, you will definitely need the mode half load.
• Those with small children may find it useful sterilization and child locks.
• With the help of a delayed start, you can save a little: run the machine at those hours when water and electricity are cheaper.

The most famous manufacturers

The leader in the production and sale of kitchen appliances is the German concern B/S/H. In the domestic market, there are an abundance of various models of Bosch and Siemens. The range ranges from the simplest models to premium options. The popularity is also due to the fact that the assembly of dishwashers under these brands is carried out mainly in Germany, sometimes in Poland. The Scandinavian manufacturer Asko traditionally holds a leading position among premium models. Products of well-known German companies Miele and Gaggenau are sold a little less often, but the price for them wants to leave the best, so the equipment is in less demand. If you focus on the price, then with confidence you can choose Whirlpool and Electrolux dishwashers, their capabilities allow you to compete with devices of higher price categories from other companies.Among budget cars, units from Candy and Flavia occupied their niche.

BEKO DIS 25010

pros

• Capacity: 10 sets
• Class A+
• 5 wash programs
• Aquastop protection

Minuses

Large water consumption: 10 liters.

From 14260 ₽

An inexpensive built-in model with an indication on the floor and a display makes moderate noise, at 49 dB. There is no child lock, but there are leak sensors on the body with a hose. For a baby, the water consumption is too big, but thanks to the half load mode, you don’t notice this.

BBK45-DW114D

pros

• Class A
• Child lock
• Soak

Minuses

No hose leak sensor

From 14445 ₽

For a stand-alone version, the design is rustic, but for 14.5 thousand it’s a sin to find fault. Moreover, the machine washes well, and the average time of one cycle is only 168 minutes.

Hansa ZWM 416 WH

pros

• A++
• 9 l. water per cycle
• Noise 49 dB.
• Half-load mode

Minuses

No screen

From 14940 ₽

A device of medium noise, average water consumption, but economical in terms of electricity (class A ++). Controlled by buttons, with a choice of 6 programs. Hansa is loved for the quality of laundering, as well as reliable work, although the craftsmen still need to work on the quality of assembly of the devices: either the hose will be pulled out at a right angle, or the fit of the body parts is uneven. But this does not affect the washing itself.

We have presented several ratings of narrow dishwashers to make it easier for you to make a choice when visiting the store. If you have chosen the built-in version, be sure to measure the final dimensions of the device yourself with a tape measure (together with protruding handles, hoses, etc.). Sometimes the manufacturer modestly downplays the parameters. Consequently, the machine may simply not enter the niche prepared for it.

Dishwasher classification

By type of installation, there are built-in PMM and stationary. The first group is installed directly into the furniture set without violating the integrity of the kitchen interior design. These machines are compact in size. The standard width is 45 cm. Type 2 machines have many options, there is a control panel on the door, which is very convenient. The width of such models is no more than 60 cm.

Additional features include:

1. Enhanced cleansing.
2. Start delay.
3. Child protection.

The machine should be installed closer to the communications, no further than 1.5 m from the sewer.

When choosing PMM parameters, it is important to take into account the number of sets that can be loaded in one cycle: usually the figure varies from 6 to 17. A fork, a spoon, a tea pair, a glass and two plates (deep and flat) are considered to be one set of dishes

Capacity is determined by multiplying the number of family members by three.
