Was so impressed with my first ASCO when we moved bought another brand new from Harvey Norman to replace the LG which was working just fine (against my husband's wishes) and have had nothing but trouble. Only 2 1/2 years old and have had the technician out 4 times since Christmas 2014 had the mother board replaced twice. Woke Friday to find its not working again. Waited 4 weeks for the first service, 3 weeks for the second, then had to wait another 2 weeks for the part then another 2 weeks to replace the board and 2 weeks later its not working...Read more

We have only had this dishwasher for a short while and this will be our second call out. The first time the elderly chap came out, he sat reading the manual as he had NO idea what to do! Really....! Not what I expected, needless to say the problem still persists. The tablets weren't dissolving and our dishes weren't clean after a cycle. The technician said that we should use the powder instead because tablets are hard to dissolve. Huh, never had a problem with our old machine! And then he supposedly adjusted the water. Well surprise, surprise...Read more

Having lost our one year old Asko when the person buying our unit insisted it stay we were faced with a $1200 spend we didn't want. However Seconds World came to the rescue with an unblemished built-in version at the same money we had paid 14 moths ago. And the machine is terrific. If you have never used an Asko you will be amazed at how wrong some manufacturers get it. For example, the door opens flat, the racks pull out completely & glasses do not fall over (Mr Smeg take note). It is whisper quiet, (Aldi/Sterling take note) and above all...Read more

We purchased this model from BING LEE after reasonable reviews on the internet. Whilst the machine seems to operate quietly and cleans very well, Asko service and follow up is disastrous. We paid for the privelege of having the machine installed by Asko only for the tech to realise he was missing a part. After many follow up calls, not a single response from Asko and BING LEE. A month later and still front facia panel/kickboard is missing. On the flip side, machine performs well and cleans throughly albeit with longer cleaning cycles than our o...Read more

Chose the Asko after much research due to our old Ariston giving up on us.
Made my choice due to the quality materials used, more stainless steel parts than others, close contender was a Bosche model but Asko was far better. Wife liked the simple design too. I like how the drawers slide smoothly as opposed to some other brands that feel cheap.
Machine is super quiet and on a normal wash mode is extremely efficient at cleaning quite heavily dirty dishes, I used a heavy duty program and was shocked that it even removed the burned on grime at b...Read more

The dishwasher shows clever design. No nobs or buttons of the door to get in the way and easy to keep outside clean. Buttons are touch sensitive so no moving switches. There is a power switch neatly located on the top of the door under the sill.

The upper tray spray is rigidly attached to the back of the washer rather than being part of the upper basket. The tube is stainless steel. Baskets glide smoothly but firmly in and out - not wobbly, jerky or flimsy rails of some makes.

Have only used the factory presets and only one wash cycle. It...Read more

I've had this machine for about a year now and I really couldn't be happier. We bought this to replace our old Dishlex when it died, and it was a toss up between the Asko and the similarly priced Miele. We went with the Asko over the Miele because we have an Asko front loader which is also excellent, and also the Asko has the stainless steel water pipe bit on the inside, whereas the Miele has the traditional rubber seals between the water pipe and the sprayer arm section, which can deteriorate over time resulting is a loss of water pressure. We...Read more

I bought the D5424 after my Miele one broke down 3 times in the 2 years since we'd moved in,(came with the house). Was told it was only 4-5 yrs old. Soooo, bought this as sales lady had one and described it as being 'great'.
Had it now almost 2 yrs so I've had plenty of time to make a clear judgment. It DOES work well most of the time, but I find that occasionally there's so much powder residue inside the glasses that they need to be washed again. Wine and champagne glasses are a bugger to clean when debris is stuck inside! Louder than my...Read more

I don't think this dishwasher is worth the price. It is noisier than my old Dishlex (11 years old).It doesn't dry well.All plastic items need to be hand dried. It cleans the dishes reasonably well though not perfectly.The everyday wash program is 1hr 50 mins long. To add the better drying option the programs extends to 2hrs 20 mins! . The cutlery basket lid is meant to be adaptable to make an extra cutlery holder in the upper basket-couldn't do that -terrible design.I paid the $132 to have mine delivered and installed. They left me with the wro...Read more

Let me start by saying that I am a dishwasher newbie, never having the luxury of owning one before now. I have always been skeptical of how good dishwashers are and owning one now hasn't changed my mine.

We bought the asko because of its reputation and the all stainless steel interior and the exterior looks. We wanted stainless and we wanted integrated.

Overall it washes some items great. Plates, cutlery, pots all come out perfect 95% of the time, only really stubborn caked on bowls need a rinse before going in the dishwasher. Anything pl...Read more

I had my heart set on the Asko5434 after reading such wonderful reviews, until I went to the shops and got sidetracked by the 5424 on special at $899. I have to say I'm so pleased with my purchase! Here's why:
- It looks fantastic (I got the white one and it looks expensive when installed, not like some of the other cheapy white ones). My partner is a huge stainless steel fan but even he agreed it looked good.
- It's simple to use, and the guy who installed it was very knowledgable and did a thorough job. I didn't need to read the instructio...Read more

This is our first dishwasher and after looking at bosch, smeg and many other brands settle on this one due to size dishes supported, the simple use of the dishwasher and asko reputation.

We were told it would be delivered on the Tuesday. Monday night we received a call from Asko with a time range for delivery. The dishwasher arrived on the Tuesday in the mentioned timeframe.

We installed the dishwasher ourselves and ran the rinse cycle - it leaked. We immediately called the support line and after a few quick tests a repair man was organi...Read more
