RUBBISH PRODUCT

published

We bought 4 and 2 required repairs and one stopped working altogether - within the first three years of purchase. RUBBISH product!!!! ZERO aftercare. AVOID them and please choose something else.

Poor manufactured product

published

Since three years ago that we bought this dishwasher it has been a disaster within our home appliances. Poor manufacturing and weak performance. Loos trays not sliding easily in and out causing the inner frame distorted. Waste of money, not recommended at all.

Does not clean well. Rinse aid needs to be filled every 3rd wash. Residue left behind on cups even though filters are clean. Lucky I didn’t waste my money on this as it came with the house

Only have it due to house and land package

published

The only reason Omega is in the market is that they can sell it cheap to the home builders to include in house and land packages.
I should have done my research before approving it for our new house.
It has a poor design and comes with less space.
Please do research about what items are included in your package deal from Builders. The minimum option with drying comes with 1.5 hours.
The 30 minute one doesn't dry the dishes which is standard in modern dishwashers.

Purchased in April 2021.

Worst dishwasher I’ve ever had

published

It doesn’t clean, have to wash by hand, even half loaded I still have to wash dishes after an intensive cycle . Cutlery is generally clean if I rinshed it before . Won’t clean cheese off of cutlery though even if I rinse it first .

Great performing Dishwasher only letdown by some stacking issues

Date PurchasedOct 2018

Just put your cups and plates back in the cupboard after you have used them and save some time

published

We have had ours for 3 years, it came with the house. Was good for the first few months then after that it started essentially being useless. I have to wash the spray arms constantly which given the design of them isn't an easy job. The little plastic clips that hold the wire racks up went within the first year but nothing a few cable ties won't fix. It rarely washes properly. And the beeping. It beeps for everything and you can't turn it off. If you leave the door open say to get 1 thing out of it and don't click it shut or turn it off which kids never ever do it will just keep beeping every 30 seconds till you do something about it. Drives me insane

Does the job really well

published

This dishwasher was really cheap and yet it works really well. The only issue I have with it is that it has a cutlery basket instead of a drawer (which I prefer). The 90 minute cycle is quick and very hot - and cleans everything beautifully. I have no complaints - it's a bargain for the price.

It's OK

published

The settings are good with this one. Performance is fine. Dishes do have to be pretty clean before putting into the dishwasher or it becomes clogged easily. Easy enough to clean though. My biggest complaint is that normal sized dinner plates do not fit in without stopping the fan from spinning, we have tried 3 different plates and they're all the same, so obviously it needs to be remodeled so the plates can fit in & the fan can spin to clean the load.

I always rinse the dishes and honestly I’m happy with the dishwasher just the ugly staining on the door spoils my whole kitchen and will never buy Omega appliances again. Omega know this is a problem and should correct their quality control before sending appliances out to the stores for selling

Don't waste your money!

published

Just over 12 months old and the writing for the programs to work it is fading off without any hard cleaning or wiping. Company replacing the door as still under warranty but once out of warranty, its our problem. given the little use, its almost certain to happen again, as its an obvious fault, but the company don't want to hear about it. They are very unreasonable to deal with on the phone. No one should pay good money and buy a product and have things going wrong after just 12 months. My sister has had a fisher and paykel 2 draw washer for 11 years and the writing on both draws is still as good as the day she got it.

Does not clean.

published

Cons:
Dishes, glasses and cluttery always come out dirty. Even with longer cycle, rinse aid, not extra dishes and pushing back top tray.
Even washing the while dishwasher regularly, the filters and water spinning wands.
Pros:
Quiet

Terrible product overall. Will buy a new one so a waste of Money.

No More Omega

published

Very disappointed in this dishwasher. Bought a brand new home with this dishwasher in it and it only lasted under three years. Smoke filled the house and we were nervous about turning it off. Not used a lot as there only two of us, so I'm glad we didn't need it for the family or it may not have last that long. Never again.

Terrible. Wish I researched before the builder installed

published

Had for 5 years because this is what the builder installed when we built the house. Wish I did some research because it seems terrible to me. Have to hand wash lots of stuff after a wash. Gets funky smells even after I try everything to clean it.
Yeh not getting an Omega again.

affordable and OK

published

This dishwasher takes a long time to finish (over 3 hours) and doesn’t dry the dishes properly even when using the extra drying cycle. It washes ok as long as you rinse and scrape the plates really well, buy the high end tablets and put the tablets in the bottom of the actual dishwasher (don’t use the container). It is a very affordable dishwasher so it is an OK purchase as long as you are happy to put in the extra time to rinse well before and dry everything after. Sometimes I do wonder whether it would be easier to just hand wash everything!
