Slimline Dishwasher Buying Guide
What are slimline dishwashers?
Slimline dishwashers are narrower versions of standard dishwashers, typically 45cm wide compared to the standard 60cm.
Who are they for?
- People with small kitchens or limited space
- Singles, couples, or small families
- Those who want the convenience of a dishwasher but don't need large capacity
Key benefits:
- Space-saving design
- Energy and water efficient for smaller loads
- Often more affordable than full-size models
Things to consider when buying:
1. Capacity:
- Usually 8-10 place settings (vs 12-14 for standard models)
- Consider your household size and washing habits
2. Energy efficiency:
- Look for A++ or A+++ ratings for lower running costs
- Check annual energy consumption figures
3. Water usage:
- Efficient models use around 8-10 litres per cycle
- Compare water consumption across brands
4. Noise level:
- Measured in decibels (dB)
- Aim for 45dB or lower for quiet operation
5. Programme options:
- Ensure it has cycles that suit your needs (e.g. eco, quick wash, intensive)
- Look for useful features like delay start or half-load options
6. Internal layout:
- Adjustable racks for flexibility
- Cutlery tray vs basket (tray often more space-efficient)
7. Drying performance:
- Check reviews for effectiveness
- Some models have special features like automatic door opening
8. Build quality and reliability:
- Read customer reviews
- Check warranty terms
9. Integration options:
- Fully integrated (hidden behind a cabinet door)
- Semi-integrated (controls visible)
- Freestanding
10. Price:
- Set a budget, but consider long-term savings from energy efficiency
