Built-in dishwashers Siemens 45 cm: rating of built-in dishwashers

Technical characteristics of functional machines

When buying a 45 cm built-in dishwasher, rating and studying the main characteristics will help you choose the best option

So, what you should pay attention to:

• kind of drying. There is a condensation dryer, fans and a turbo dryer. The last option is the most efficient, but also the most expensive. The condensing type of drying is the most budgetary. Optimal solution in terms of quality and price procedure with the help of fans;
• the degree of noise produced. The best option is 43-45 dB;
• placement of buttons that can be located both on the front side and inside.If the technique is built-in, then it is better if the buttons are also disguised;
• availability of programs. Their number varies from 4 to 24. The most necessary options are: delicate and thorough washing, half load option, soak option and quick option;
• the efficiency of the models depends on the energy class. The lowest class is A.

Embedded models can be very roomy

Modern designs may have additional features. These are all kinds of sensors: water quality, salt presence and a remote start timer. Leak protection device and child lock are also useful.

It is important to understand how the washing procedure takes place in this unit. Dirty sets of dishes are placed inside, and then detergent is placed in a certain section

After turning on the button, the tank is filled with water. The device has special elements that heat the water. Then the detergent is added.

Features of the device of useful equipment

With the help of a circulation pump, spraying is carried out, and a jet under pressure cleans all impurities. All waste particles fall to the bottom of the chamber. Water is taken through the filter, and then clean water moves to the sprinklers.

SPV Series Features

You have probably already noticed that all review models belong to the SPV series.

This is one of the latest developments of the manufacturer, which replaced the aging SRV series, which has the following features:

• all units are fully built-in and do not exceed 45 cm in width;
• This modification allows a wide range of additional functions. We'll talk more about this later;
• the simplest devices of the series do not have an indication of the program time, they are distinguished by a minimum set of operating modes and are not equipped with soundproofing. Such properties do not prevent the devices from successfully coping with the main task - washing dishes;
• I consider the presence of an additional VarioDrawer basket to be an important difference. It is here that you can conveniently place all cutlery, which eliminates the need for a special tray;
• Among the special options you will find VarioSpeed. You can run this mode together with the washing program and speed it up almost twice without compromising the result.

Otherwise, the operation of dishwashers of this series does not differ from others - you just need to properly care for the appliance and select detergents in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations.

The product of an experienced manufacturer has dimensions standard for a full-size design, including a width of 60 cm. The body is fully integrated into the allotted space, the operation and maintenance of the dishwasher is convenient. The inner surface of stainless steel can withstand repeated washing cycles, does not rust, does not deform under the influence of high temperature and steam. The basket can be moved vertically, neatly placing different-sized kitchen utensils. A special holder is designed for thin-walled glasses, which are washed from all sides with high quality.

With the help of 5 programs, the super mode, designed for 50 minutes, dishes of varying degrees of soiling are cleaned. The sink belongs to the most optimal class A.Condensation drying completes the workflow, the result of which users highlight as a plus. The design flaws include the lack of sensors for monitoring water hardness, the presence of consumables, as well as the weight of the device 40 kg.

Dishwashers 60 cm - advantages, disadvantages, for whom they are suitable

Dishwashers with a width of 60 cm are considered standard, belong to the category of home equipment, but they can also be used in small cafes. These models have rather large dimensions, are not always economical in terms of water consumption and electricity consumption, and have a rather high cost. As for the advantages of using these particular options for kitchen appliances, they are as follows:

• can accommodate up to 14 sets of dishes;
• there are special baskets with latches for fragile cutlery, spoons and forks;
• there is a large functional range;
• there are automatic functions that allow you to choose the most optimal washing mode and turn off the device without human intervention;
• machines have a reliable body;
• standard models are equipped with new inverter motors that operate virtually silently;
• new economical generation dishwashers have appeared on sale, using even 10 liters of water in one cycle;
• most models have full protection against leaks and children;
• standard machines have a convenient warning system, displaying information on the floor using a beam;
• you can turn on even a half-loaded machine, which is very convenient in standard home conditions.

Of course, not everyone can afford a 60 cm dishwasher and there is not always enough space for it in the kitchen, but nevertheless, this option is considered to be more professional and, indeed, it is.

For small families or bachelors, this option will not work at all, it will consume extra electrics and take up a lot of space, but in places where it is always noisy and a whole mountain of dirty dishes accumulates, just such a dishwasher is needed.

Pros and cons of dishwashers 60 cm

Full-size models of dishwashers have a lot of advantages noted by users:

• The volumetric chamber allows you to wash an average of 14-18 sets in one cycle, including pots and pans of large diameter. If necessary, if there are very few dirty items, you can turn on the half load mode, if it is provided by the manufacturer.
• The free arrangement of dishes in the baskets contributes to good circulation of water in the hopper and high-quality cleaning of all items.

The only disadvantage of the 60 cm dishwasher is that it takes up a lot of space. It is more difficult to embed a full-size model than a narrow one. Since standard furniture modules will not work, you will have to make a cabinet or a whole set to order.

If installation is not difficult, a dishwasher with a wide body will become an indispensable assistant in the daily routine of a large family.

Today, the home appliance market offers a variety of dishwashers for every taste, but the limited space makes you opt for a narrow device that has advantages: the machine fits easily into the interior of the kitchen and makes life easier for the hostess. A full-size model requires finding a large free niche in the room, but it will be useful for a family that uses a huge amount of dishes and large-sized utensils every day.

Narrow PMM 45 cm: pros and cons

Let us briefly highlight the main advantages and disadvantages of narrow models.

• Compactness and ergonomics. It's not even about saving free space, but about the optimal placement of the PMM in the kitchen, especially the small one. The smaller the machine, the more appropriate it looks in the interior. You can easily integrate a narrow model into a cabinet of a kitchen set, even if you choose a non-embedded option - just install it in a cabinet of a suitable volume.
• Large selection and variety of models. We will return to this issue in detail in the main part of the review with examples of models. But in general, the statistics of marketing specialists are such that 45 cm cars are bought many times more actively than usual, and if there is a demand, then the market undoubtedly has a supply.
• There are no problems with the selection of the facade. Considering the previous paragraph about the popularity of narrow modifications, it is much easier to choose a furniture facade for a narrow PMM. Often, the door to wide devices is made to order, and these are unnecessary gestures.

Saving 15 cm of free space in the room.

The pros are clear, but what about the cons? There are no less:

• Not all utensils are placed in the bunker. Baking tins, large pots, baking trays - all this can simply go to the sink for hand washing. The dishwasher should do the cleaning, not you.
• Durability and manufacturability are not something the owner of such equipment can be proud of. Due to the savings on the case, the parts are located close to each other, which negatively affects their service life. As a result, the machines serve 2 or even 2.5 years less.
• Large families will not be delighted. If at least 3 more people live with you, it is better to abandon the idea of ​​\u200b\u200bsuch an acquisition - the capacity of the camera will not be enough.

Narrow

Advantages:

• Compact and ergonomic design. The narrow dishwasher saves space in the kitchen and fits seamlessly into standard cabinets from most kitchen furniture manufacturers.
• Big choice. Because the demand for narrow models is great, there is more variety in the model range compared to full-size dishwashers.
• Choice of cladding. The popularity of narrow built-in dishwashers allows you to choose a cladding panel with a ready-made color and texture solution. Most manufacturers of kitchen furniture already have ready-made facades in the kit.

Flaws:

• Large dishes will not fit in the interior of the dishwasher. Cauldrons, ducklings, trays, baking sheets, pans will require manual washing, or an additional start of the dishwasher.
• Lifetime. The narrow body does not allow you to freely position the work units. The lack of space for functional units reduces the life of the machine by an average of a couple of years.
• A narrow PMM will not cope with a large number of dishes in 1 cycle. The use of such a model for sets of dishes for 5-7 people will require additional work cycles, which will lead to increased consumption of electricity, water and time.
• Choosing the first dishwasher among the abundance of brands and models can be more of a problem than buying and installing it.

Which dishwasher detergents to choose: rating of the most effective options

After acquiring high-quality equipment, many people think about the selection of special products for high-quality washing.

At the same time, it is important that such drugs do not cause harm to health and are inexpensive.

Quality products don't necessarily have to be expensive.

Similar products for dishwashers are available in several forms. It can be a gel, tablet or powder. The powders do not contain conditioner and rinse aid. In its application, special salts are often used to soften water. Gel preparations dissolve better than powder. But the gel also does not have emollient properties.

Tablets are a good solution. Compressed pills contain not only detergent, but also conditioner and salt. Each substance does not immediately dissolve. With the help of such tablets, you can not only wash the dishes with high quality, but also refresh them.

Dishwasher detergents may have different packaging

In the rating presented in the form of a table, you can see popular products for the best dishwashing.

Programs of different brands

All modern models of dishwashers are equipped with a set of different programs, regardless of the brand of the manufacturer. It is customary to divide them into 2 groups: standard and multifunctional. The second group provides for the presence of additional features. Relying on the number of modes, considering that this device is the best, is not worth it. You need to choose modes based on personal requirements.This will help save yourself from unnecessary costs, because many of the programs remain unclaimed by the user in practice.

The main set of modes is represented by the following features:

• intensive wash. It is carried out at 65 degrees. Designed for dishes that are heavily soiled, have grease and food residue on the surface. Washing usually takes 130-165 minutes.
• normal mode - 55 degrees. Suitable for medium soiled dishes, in the absence of dried food residues. The cycle takes an average of 155-180 minutes.
• IVF program - 50 degrees. This is a standard cycle of 165-175 minutes for moderately soiled dishes.
• Pre-soak mode. Takes no more than 8 minutes. Essential if you are dealing with very heavily soiled dishes.
• Express. Works at 60 degrees for about 1 hour. Suitable for dishes that have not been heavily soiled and do not need perfect drying.
• Quick Program - 40 degrees. Designed for 40 minutes, copes only with lightly soiled appliances. The short cycle is also due to the lack of drying.
• auto mode. The appliance independently selects a program for washing dishes, relying on the degree of soiling. 1 cycle of the machine takes 150 minutes, and the water temperature varies from 45 to 55 degrees.
• Glass. Already from the name it is clear that this is a program for glassware. You can also wash porcelain items. The cycle is designed for 115 minutes, on average, at a temperature of 40 degrees. The sink is designed to process lightly soiled dishes.

Advantages and disadvantages

Now I want to highlight the range of general advantages and disadvantages that you can expect when buying a Siemens dishwasher.

I think the pros can be grouped as follows:

• I must say right away that the installation of the device will not cause any problems. Moreover, you will not be limited in the choice of furniture profile, for example, a kitchen set without handles. The device will open with one click;
• all narrow dishwashers of the brand are equipped with innovative functionality and this is not an empty phrase. I'll go into more detail on this below;
• I want to say a few words about ergonomics. Firstly, the manufacturer offers special boxes that can be used if more space is required for glasses. Additional holders add convenience. It is easy to place not only glasses in the chamber, but also large kitchen utensils, pots, dishes, not to mention simple plates. In this matter, you will not encounter any problems - the interior space is modeled extremely simply. All elements that you can fold or move are highlighted in color;
• Siemens dishwashers give excellent washing and drying results. By the way, even condensation drying is much more efficient than in similar machines. The Germans used a special natural mineral that quickly absorbs moisture and converts it into thermal energy;
• in this case, you can count on true German build quality;
• completing the circle of advantages, I will say that the brand's devices are quite economical in operation.

If we talk about the minuses, then the main ones can be considered a rather high cost, I could not find other defects, no matter how hard I tried.
