I stumbled upon this dishwasher entirely on accident especially considering that while I had thought about purchasing a tabletop dishwasher, they were all either too large and/or needed to be hooked up to the faucet (which isn’t feasible given the layout of my kitchen). I had no idea they made tabletop dishwashers that you can fill up the reservoir and then use a stock pot (or similar drainage container) to dispose of the water afterwards.
When I say this dishwasher is a game changer, I’m not exaggerating. I spend maybe 10 minutes or so rinsing my dishes of any larger/stuck food particles, load, set to the “eco” function (I put “eco” in quotes namely because it just lessens the normal cycle by 10 minutes. Not a huge difference IMO) and voila! I set it and forget it.
Pros:
-Gets my dishes clean each time. I do rinse pretty thoroughly or soak my dishes, but I’ve run a few pieces that were more dirty and they’ve come out clean.
-Compact. While it’s not the smallest device on the market, you do get a lot of bang for your buck.
-The light. It’s just cool, not gonna lie.
-Layout. I mostly use a lot of bowls which take up a lot of dishwasher space given their shape, but I have no issue loading several bowls, silverware, larger cutlery, and several cups in at the same time.
-User Friendly. It doesn’t take a rocket surgeon to assemble and use this dishwasher. Assembly if you’re using the filler option (versus the faucet option) is minimal. The buttons light up in the event you uh, wash your dishes in the dark? (I don’t know your life, I’m not here to judge) so they’re easy to see. The beeping noise to alert you that the fill tank is full is a neat feature as well. And the hose is considerably long with a fastener attachment to assume your kitchen does not become the set of Titanic.
Cons-
-Drying function. The drying function is great EXCEPT for cups/mugs. Even if you run the dry function for the full hour, there will always be a little pool of water on top of the bottom of your cup. What I normally do is either air dry my dishes (because air is free) or pause the device, tip over the pooled water before the dry function begins, and then run it.
-Noise. While it’s not the loudest, it’s also not the quietest. I have a studio and can definitely hear the device on the other side of my apartment. With that being said, it literally just sounds like water being agitated and is not an unpleasant noise. Bonus for you ASMR fans.
-The suction cup attachment. At the end of the hose is a suction cup that allows you to secure the hose into your sink/draining pot during use and to secure the hose to the dishwasher after use. Even if you wet the suction cup a bit before securing, chances are good that it will still come undone. If you can, it may be a good idea to place a towel or something over the hose in the event it comes loose and makes it want to rain, ya know?
All in all this device is *chef kiss* and very helpful for everyday use, but does have some functions that are important to be mindful of. However, none of the cons are egregious enough to make me stop using this dishwasher. I haven’t had it long, so I will try to update my review if/when anything changes. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.
