OMG what a disgraceful dishwasher

published

I have never seen a dishwasher that you actually have to hand wash dishes after they have supposedly been "cleaned" by the dishwasher. It doesn't compare in any way shape or form to the old dishlex that we had for over 10 years. Very disappointed and will not buy DeLonghi again.

Worst dishwasher

published

Just installed this 4 days ago after a long wait for a kitchen reno to finish. Was looking forward to using it but has since been a nightmare. Have had to rewash nearly every cycle and the dishes are NEVER dry. Dish tablet doesn't release properly, dishes are always dirty and always dripping wet no matter what cycle we choose. I want to find out about getting a refund and getting something better. It's the worst!! Would NOT recommend.

Quiet, cleans well . Easy to program

published

Love how quiet this unit is, cleans my crockery & especially glassware beautifully .
Easy to stack, with lay down or removable racks for larger items . The top drawer for cutlery and longer knives is great. The finish is easy to clean & keep clean
All in all would recommend this product

good but broke after 6 months

published

- cleans ok and drys well if not to full. The dishwasher aide indicator could be a bit a brighter.
- quiet even when asleep
- drying option/colour/blue led.
Didn't have a problem with it until the heater function stopped working shortly followed by the water stopping getting hot. Drama getting replacement parts

Good but one issue...

published

It was cheap, internal layout with the cutlery dray is fantastic, though not good for wine glasses. Problem takes 2-3hrs to wash! The quick one hour wash is not great. So if you are not in a rush, not a bad purchase but my last machine only took an hour and great job.

Worst dishwasher ever!

published

Nothing comes out clean even though I rinse everything with hot water before loading. Cups come out dirtier than when they went in, powder residue left on everything. Rinse aid is always topped up and does not make a difference. Doesn't dry anything no matter what setting we use! I would never recommend this dishwasher to anyone.

WORST DISHWASHER

published

Absolutely the worst dishwasher I have had.
Recommended by sales guy
Got service repair guy out just before warranty ended and he said need to clean the arms weekly. (Never done this on any before). Made no difference when I do it every week
My kids could wash up better
Always dirty. I rinse everything. Tried all Different powder and tablets too

Great dishwasher - Best appliance I ever brought

published

It washes the dishes beautifully and even dries the dishes better
it is whisper quiet but it starts up a bit loud at the beginning
My favourite feature is rapid and 1 hour cycles
If you are looking for a dishwasher that is easy to use and hassle free to load and unload then choose this one

Very good Delonghi dishwasher

published

Old dishwasher was a Dishlex 25 years old, so great value ! Finally had to buy a new one and husband wanted S/S . Delonghi is not too noisy but some of the cycles are very long .Does a great job of cleaning and drying my dishes .Still not used to the cutlery tray up top which also does restrict height of mugs and glasses on the next shelf .But all in all satisfied

Gret Dishwasher

published

I have found this dishwasher washes the dishes really well but they are quite wet when they come out its best to put on the extra dry option or open the dishwasher for an hour or so once it has finished to let it dry. then the machine is working it is quiet and I forget it is even on. I have found it very good but a little slow. the adjustable shelf is helpful and I love that the knives and forks are on the top in there own section and not stuck down the bottom catching everything. over all I would purchase this dishwasher again.

GOOD DISHWASHER, SHAME ABOUT THE DRYING

published

Moved to new home and had to replace the Kleenmaid dishwasher which I reckon was put in when the house was built in 1980! It worked fine but was noisy and ugly. The DeLonghi stainless steel d/w looks brilliant and fitted snugly into the slot. It is easy to load and unload and is satisfyingly quiet. Sadly it doesn't dry as well as it washes but I am aware that unless you go the whole economic hog and buy a Miele, none of them dry completely. Value for money is great, we'd rather have the DeLonghi plus dinner out once a week and dry the bottoms of glasses for a year than a Miele.

This dishwasher is amazing, I'd recommend it for sure...

published

This dishwasher is amazing. I've never had to rewash anything and dishes dry without leaving water marks. The cutlery tray allows items to be washed thoroughly, whilst it also makes handling cutlery easier and more hygienic, with no need to touch the ends when stacking or unstacking. The Delonghi DEDW645S is energy efficient, very quiet and looks stylish, especially when switched on with the display panel softly backlit. It is incredibly easy to operate and is very reasonably priced. I love this dishwasher, it's freed up so much of my time. I'd recommend this product, for sure.

Could have done a lot better than this!

published

Cleans ok
Not as quiet as our last machine.
My least favourite feature is the arrangement of the racks and the fact that there is no utensil basket. There was a problem with the first one we bought and they could not supply the part, so eventually had to replace the whole unit. Just not happy with it.

Love! Love!Love! my new DeLonghi.... nothing else to say.

published

Really does an excellent job, quiet and quick operation. Good Quick operation with fast cycles. Tray for cutlery instead of old style dishwashers where put in a container at the bottom of the machine. Easy to load. Easy to clean. Quiet, and great metallic finish in the kitchen, updates the surrounding space, through modernising the appearance of the kitchen.

Machine used 26 days. Spent entire time, configuring DW, Studying User guide, alas, even shed tears of frustration. Good features:Cleans well if items rinsed. DW is quiet, egg rings squeak. Agree about wine glasses and spray arms on bottom plates issue. Courteous DeLonghi concierge follow-up, but utterly frustrated. Last night had another go, took out the top shelf (cutlery one) to fit glasses - still at 20 degree angle, still drain off non-existent. Going to Good Guys tonight. Why is it so hard to get a dishwasher that does the job.GG if you tell me tonight, to put the glasses on the bottom tray, I will surely scream!

Washes ok on the longest cycle but does not dry.

published

Purchased this to replace a Bosch dishwasher which cracked in the inside because it was plastic. Thought the stainless steel interior would work better however this dishwasher does not have the ability to wash well unless you use the longest cycle possible. There is no drying ability on this dishwasher and everything comes out wet - so everything needs to be hand dried which is a complete waste of time.

Called customer service and they just suggested to use more rinse aid - tried it and the dishwasher does not have the ability to dissolve it well. The slimy leftover was on my dishes so I have to wash them twice at the moment. Avoid if you want a good dishwasher that washes and dries well!
