Dishwasher rating 45 cm

dishwasher ratingIt is quite difficult to imagine modern homes without household appliances, which makes our life easier and saves a lot of time. A dishwasher is just an example of this technique. Some will ask, why do we need a built-in or non-built-in dishwasher, if we do not accumulate plates, and with my hands at once, why do we clutter up the kitchen? The answer is simple - the dishwasher helps to look after not only the dishes, but also children's toys, home accessories and more. It is about the rating of dishwashers 45 cm and about their correct choice that will be discussed in this article.

The main characteristics by which you need to choose a "dishwasher"

Going to the store and buying the first dishwasher that comes across is almost certainly dooming yourself to waste of money. Like any dishwasher technique, it should not only become an organic part of the interior of your kitchen, it should be suitable for you and completely satisfy your needs in terms of caring for dishes and other household utensils. Of course, this is an ideal option, a kind of goal that you need to strive for when choosing such a technique, but you definitely don’t need to buy a dishwasher thoughtlessly, simply because it should be.

Before proceeding with the selection of “dishwashers” and compiling a unique rating for “kitchen assistants”, you need to decide on the main parameters of this choice and prioritize yourself. Experts advise relying on the following characteristics of dishwashers.

  • sizes and features of the connection;
  • the ability to embed;
  • configuration and location of dish trays;
  • quality dishwashing;
  • set of programs;
  • drying features;
  • water consumption and energy consumption.

dishwasher ratingThe size of the dishwasher is a parameter that must be taken into account if the space of your kitchen is strictly limited. If there is a small area, the smaller the dishwasher, the better, but it is important to understand that a small dishwasher has a small capacity. To wash the mountain of dishes, you will have to make several bookmarks, and this is an additional cost of time.

Consumers mostly value dishwashers with the option of embedding. And, indeed, 99% of modern kitchen designs suggest the hidden placement of household appliances so that they do not spoil the interior composition with their appearance. The question is, why in such a kitchen is not a built-in dishwasher? That's right, she is not needed there at all! So when choosing a “dishwasher” we look only at those models that can be built into the kitchen set.

As for the connection features, this parameter is directly related to another parameter - power consumption. If you connect the dishwasher to a water pipe with hot water, it means that the heater will be used less, which means that energy consumption will be reduced. On the other hand, in this case, the consumption of hot water will increase, and based on modern tariffs, it is more profitable to pay for additional kilowatts than for additional cubic meters of hot water.

Note! Experts say that it is best to connect the dishwasher to cold water, because in this case the machine parts will last longer and the quality of washing the dishes will increase.

When choosing a dishwasher 45 cm, do not hesitate to look at its baskets for dishes, because you use them, so all the elements should be as convenient as possible. Modern models of dishwashers 45 cm went beyond two standard baskets for dishes. They now have trays for knives and forks, suspensions for crystal and glass glasses. In the baskets there are compartments for small and very small items (suitable for children's toys) and so on. In general, choose "dishwashers" with the most functional containers.

The quality of washing dishes should be paid special attention. It is a pity that only in very rare cases you have the opportunity to test a specific model of the dishwasher 45 cm before buying it, so that later there would be no unpleasant surprises, study the special notation in the passport.

  1. A - laundering at the highest level;
  2. B - launders perfectly;
  3. C - launders well;
  4. D - launders above average;
  5. E - launders satisfactorily.

As you may have guessed, these Latin letters just indicate the quality of washing dishes, according to tests conducted by experts. Depending on the results of these tests, a specific designation is assigned a letter designation, which is encoded as a dishwasher 45 cm, washing dishes.

Important! When choosing a modern “dishwasher”, make sure that the quality parameter for washing is A, B or C, if parameter D or even E, you should not take such a technique.

dishwasher ratingAnother very important parameter of choice is a set of programs. The quality of its work depends on what programs a particular model of dishwasher 40 or 45 cm has. Experts agree that any modern "dishwasher" 40 or 45 cm should have the following programs:

  • The main wash. The program can be called differently, but the bottom line is that the dishes are washed in hot water (approximately 600C), about 2-3 hours.
  • Super wash. The bottom line is that washing takes place in very hot water for about 1.5 hours.
  • Soaking. The mode is used for dishes that have been unwashed for a long time.
  • Fast. The mode is used for kitchen utensils with light pollution, the execution time is about 40 minutes.

This is a necessary set, without which a 40 or 45 cm dishwasher will not be able to properly wash the dishes, but this does not mean that it will have only 4 functions. The set of a specific model may have 10-15 functions, but it is unlikely that you will use all.

40 or 45 cm dishwashers can also dry dishes. How does this happen? In standard “dishwashers”, plates after washing remain in the box for natural drying. In other words, the machine turns off, allowing water to drain from the dishes and after a while, it dries by itself. In modern 40 or 45 cm dishwashers, convection superchargers are installed that heat and propel the air inside the box, which leads to quick drying of the dishes, but also to a large expenditure of energy.

Water consumption and energy efficiency also need to be addressed. True, correlate the efficiency of a 40 or 45 cm dishwasher with the programs that are installed in it. If a machine can forcefully dry dishes, it will, by definition, be less energy efficient. Also with the volume, the more dishes the “dishwasher” box can accommodate, the more water it will consume.

Note! In some modern models of dishwashers 40 or 45 cm, innovative sprinklers are installed that save up to 30% of water while maintaining the quality of the sink.

Top 5 most functional and high-quality dishwashers

Based on the above parameters, we selected the five best dishwashers, thus compiling our rating. Having studied our rating, it may be easier for you to make a choice, and perhaps make your personal rating of built-in dishwashers. We present to your attention our rating.

BOSCH SPS 40E12 RU. This is a magnificent, built-in, narrow (45 cm) budget model of a Bosch dishwasher, European assembly. With an average price of 320 cu it is capable of holding as many as 9 sets of different utensils.

Note! A set of dishes is a set of four plates, a cup, a saucer, two spoons and two forks.

There are few washing programs, but everything you need is available. There is a preliminary rinse, a complete analogue of the soaking mode, which we have already mentioned above. There is a program for economical washing, automatic and quick washing. It is possible to set the water temperature from +30 to +700WITH.If necessary, you can delay the start of the program, change the basket for dishes in height and set the button lock so that children do not get there.

This machine tops our rating because it:

  1. Cheap
  2. capacious;
  3. narrow
  4. can recognize detergents;
  5. economical;
  6. has protection against leaks and children.

BOSCH SPS 40E12 RUIn addition to the above “dishwasher” has another advantage - it is not noisy. Of course, some modern models of dishwashers surpass the BOSCH SPS 40E12 RU in terms of noise, but this technique is twice as expensive.

CANDY CDP 4609. This is a narrow built-in very budget model of a Chinese-built dishwasher. According to its characteristics, it is similar to the sample considered above. The difference is only in the number of programs, Kandy has 5 of them, in the absence of protection from children and the lack of a detergent recognition system. This car fell into our ranking in second place, because it:

  • record cheap (only 217 cu);
  • perfectly washes dishes;
  • narrow
  • capacious;
  • economical.

Perhaps she would argue for first place with the "dishwasher" BOSCH, but the Chinese assembly let us down. Consumers have complaints about the build quality and spare parts, although they are quite rare. But as they say for such money it’s very, very good - a very worthy model.

CANDY CDP 4609

SIEMENS SR24E205RU. Narrow built-in budget model of the “dishwasher". According to its characteristics, this is a complete analogue of the BOSCH SPS 40E12 RU, even surprisingly, the assembly is also European. What is the strangest and the price is almost identical, the average is 321 cu Then the question arises, how do they differ and why did SIEMENS SR24E205RU get only 3rd place in our rating?

The point is the quality of the dishwasher and the number of calls of the owners of this model to service centers. SIEMENS in this parameter in 2015 yielded by 3% even to CANDY dishwashers. Therefore, only 3 place, although the separation from the leader in this case is negligible.

SIEMENS SR24E205RU

LERAN FDW 45-096 WHITE. A dishwasher from a Chinese company got into fourth place in our rating LERAN. This is a narrow (45 cm) programmable dishwasher and loads 9 sets of dishes. The model is budget, the average price is 243 cu

Note! The Leran brand not so long ago appeared on world markets, however, it burst into it very rapidly and gained quite a strong position, offering inexpensive and fairly high-quality products.

The model is economical, has 6 washing programs: intensive, fast, economical and others. Each of these programs will undoubtedly be used by you. There is a delay in starting, protection from children, complete protection against leaks. The basket for dishes is adjustable in height, in addition, the machine can be started in partial load mode, and this is an additional saving of water. This model was put in fourth place due to the fact that the brand has not yet established itself, and experts and consumers do not have confidence in the quality of Leran equipment, although this dishwasher deserves the highest rating.

LERAN FDW 45-096

ELECTROLUX ESF 2300OS. And finally, in fifth place, we put a dishwasher from the company Electrolux. Although this is not a narrow model, it is attractive with other technical characteristics - it is compact 54x44x51 cm and weighs only 21 kg. The machine is very quiet - the noise level is only 48 dB and economical - the water consumption is 7 liters.

In addition, there are 6 washing programs, electronic controls, a display, protection from children's interference and a sensor for clean water. Box for dishes made of high quality stainless steel. They collect a “dishwasher” in Italy, the average price is about 333 cu Only 6 sets of dishes are placed in the dishwasher, however, you need to understand that we are talking about a compact model, which can be very successfully fit into a small kitchen.

Which are better, according to the consumer?

In this paragraph, we gave several consumer reviews in order to fully understand which dishwashers are better today and which model to give preference to, on the one hand, not to overpay for unnecessary functions, and on the other hand to get a complete device that meets all the stated requirements. These are the reviews.

Lyudmila Alexandrovna, Saratov

Model: CANDY CDP 4609.

Advantages: washes away all the dirt from the dishes, even dried up.

Disadvantages: the drain filter is often clogged with food debris, it is necessary to clean after each dish setting.

I bought this dishwasher 2 years ago under the recycling program in Eldorado, very pleased, thought it would be much worse. From early childhood I hate washing dishes and then decided to make a gift for myself. In using the Kandy dishwasher, I see 2 drawbacks that annoy me. The first - it is necessary to clean the filter after each dishwashing, and the second - you need to use expensive tablet detergents, otherwise the quality of washing is poor.

dishwasher ratingGalina, Moscow

Model: BOSCH SPS 40E12 RU

Pluses: well launders greasy dishes.

Disadvantages: the lattices of the dishwashing trays have broken, and now some plates strive to slip to the bottom of the dishwasher cabinet. I don’t know where to buy new ones.

I have been using the Bosch dishwasher for six months. The first month I got used to it, now I can not imagine the kitchen life without such a technique. I really like to cook and meet guests, so noisy feasts are an integral part of our family’s life. After the guests there remains a mountain of unwashed utensils, so the dishwasher is our lifesaver! I don’t have any particular complaints about the car, it’s my own fault that I gave the child to play in the kitchen, and he broke the grate of the tray, now I’m thinking how to fix or replace the tray. I rate Bosch's dishwasher for five points.

Julia Sergeevna, Krasnodar

Model: BOSCH SPS 40E12 RU

Advantages: saves detergents, cleans dishes quickly and well.

Disadvantages: noisy.

I have been using Dishwashers for many years. The very first was Zanussi, who served 7 years. Now I bought equipment from Bosch, there is no doubt - a very good car. Compared with the old machine, this time is three times less than washing. I don’t know what it depends on, but the surprise is pleasant. Noise is stronger than Zanuska, but it does not bother me. Very cool model, I recommend it to everyone.

In conclusion, we note that if you look at the characteristics of modern dishwashers more closely, we will quickly understand that they are basically similar. There are simply no outsiders left in the highly competitive technology market. The models assembled in Europe are considered the best, although the Chinese are stepping on their heels and the difference between them is not significant. In general, draw the final conclusions yourself and make the right decision.

    I’m looking for a dishwasher, my friends advise Hotpoint-Ariston, they have exactly the same ones, though I don’t remember exactly the models. Who used it, how are you? Thank you in advance!
