Not a fan

We had this for dishwasher for 4 years. I found I was needing to rewash dishes most of the time because they weren’t coming out clean regardless what washing tablet I’d use. It was quiet while running and I did like that there was a lot of options for cycles.

Durable.

This is my first dishwasher and found it’s very easy to use has no problem so far. It has 12 settings also if it is half loaded it has options to save water and electricity comes with delay start feature which helps to clean in dishes during off peak hours and also basket is adjustable.

Pretty good

published

Had this over a year now and happy with it. Cleans the items well and no streaks on the glassware. Only fault is the top drawer which pulls out but does not smoothly go back in so you constantly have to jig it about. Had someone come out to look at it and he just confirmed its a cheap assembly so nothing could be done.

Buyer beware

published

Really inconsistent in the quality of the clean, in spite of cycle length and quality detergent. Hassle adjusting shelves. Two person household, used once per day minimal loads dishes rinsed prior to stacking. Weekly clean of waste catcher and monthly clean with recommended product. Water pump went when just out of warranty - Pump replaced and 10 months later water pump gone again! Customer service pitiful. I will never buy another one. Worst product! It is worth paying that bit extra for a quality brand.

Doesn’t fit normal size plates in default position . When top rack is raised to fit normal size plates it doesn’t easily slide back far enough to close door, many attempts required. Side racks top shelf too narrow for mugs,cups. I have told family and friends, don’t buy an Omega dishwasher.

Wiped over door with a damp cloth only and program guide wiped off without any effort after only 3 wipes. The top rack difficult to slide back when stacked, however easy to slide back in store when empty which doesn’t help.

As a Dishwasher it makes a nice Bench

published

Too small to put dishes in. For some reason it forces food scraps into the wash blades, gumming up the whole thing. I can't remember the last time I've had dishes washed without chunks of food and other grossness baked onto them. The only thing this works well as, is a bench to put our microwave atop of.

Don’t use it as it doesn’t even have room to stack your plates upright.

published

Absolutely terrible waste of my money
It quite loud
The spinning water jets actually hit the plates if you put them where they are meant to be stacked upright so therefore we don’t use it at all it just sits there
No favourite features as we don’t use it
Worst product one bought in years

BUZZING!

published

It's ok. Cleans ok. Love all the space inside. In the beginning I loved it. Very easy to use. We have had it a few months now and it has started buzzing. Does anyone know what that is....it is soooo annoying. The front of the maching seems to be getting a specked finish on the stainless steel coating. Seems poor quality.

Does not clean

published

Sorry. This dishwasher does not clean at all. Food on dishes, its a waste of time even using it. Don't waste your money. Help from omega is non existant. I have the photos of the dishes after going through 2 cycles to prove its just an ornamental piece of metal.

Ok gets the job done

published

It cleanes well but I would have liked it to get better..and is quiet while in action. I like the options to do a half load but it saves water not time. The cutlery draw which I though I would love actually drives me insane and takes up alot of excess room. I love that the top rack can move up or down.

excellent value for the money

published

Excellent performance. Someone did not use if properly, you'd better select a proper program to clean. For large plates, you can adjust the upper basket level and put large plate at the bottom and you can get a good clean. Clean is OK. Great value. Only 400-500, when compared with other makes, this one is much better.

Good for a cheap dishwasher

published

Good dishwasher if your not wanting to spend a lot of money. Its pretty quiet and washes the dishes pretty well. The drying isn't the best. I have to open the door after it's finished to let the steam out and dry. The tablet dispenser won't open if you have anything bigger then a very small saucer plate. Even though the manufacturer instructions tell you they can be put there.

Value for money

published

Bought it from Harvey Norman last year and I haven't had a problem since then.
I won't say it's the best dishwasher but for the price it does its job very well.
Runs quietly.
I run it for 1 hour and use fairy tablets and for a small family of 3 I only run it once a day and fits all my pots and pans and dishes of the whole day.
Doesn't work too well on old grease but its alright for daily usage

Machine not fit for purpose!

published

Does not clean, even when dishes are scraped and rinsed first. Machine was part of handover of new home built in 2014. Just out of warranty and needs a new board and thermostat! Approx $500 to fix! RRP $899... Unacceptable! Will pursue with Fair Trading. Not confident in fixing it to last another 2 years. Machine is not fit for purpose!

When I can afford a new one I will light this one on fire

published

The biggest peice of junk I've ever come across. Will be buying a new dishwasher soon and I will not even sell this one on for $1. The guilt of passing it on to another poor unsuspecting soul would be too much for me to live with. I'm going to light it on fire and watch this peice of crap burn with great pleasure. Can put glasses in it or bowls. Only thing it sometimes washes is plates but only on intensive.

ABSOLUTELY THE BEST

published

This is our second Omega ODW702XB stainless dishwasher and they are absolutely the best.
The first we purchased new a few years ago for our previous house in NSW, we sold and moved to QLD where there was a Dishlex in our new house that kept flooding the kitchen.
So, we bought our second Omega @ $430.
Tried and tested, easy to operate, very quiet and washes really dirty BBQ dishes with ease (using Aldi's dishwasher tablets).
Absolutely the best dishwasher !.

I'd say Danielle O didn't read the user guide because the top tray is height adjustable. In the highest position, you can have plates 370mm diameter in the bottom tray.

Not good

published

Doesn't wash dishes properly! Food scraps get recycled with the water and even into the inside of the spray bays (which blocks the water spray). Doesn't spray sufficient water to clean the dishes. Dishwashing powder tablets also weren't fully dissolved by the machine - only used recommended amount. All in all, I think not worth buying.
