For my new kitchen, I'm looking for a built-in dishwasher that's fast and efficient. This way, I'll save on my energy costs and get clean dishes quickly. With the economical eco program, I can wash my plates, glasses, and cutlery faster than the average dishwasher. At the end of the program, the door opens, allowing the last drops of water to air-dry. I don't have an app to see how long the program will last, but I have the floor projection for that. Therefore, this dishwasher has everything I need.

First impression What strikes me is that the dishwasher has enough space for my daily dishes. On weekends, I usually have guests and more dirty glasses and cups. The dishwasher has plenty of room for that. The display has quite a few different functions. It takes a little while to figure out how everything works, but I quickly get the hang of it. I really like the stainless steel finish of the control panel. It gives it a luxurious look. The interior lighting is also a big plus. It gives me a better view of my dishes. It's also handy that the cutlery drawer at the top also provides space for large soup spoons and spatulas.

Energy Efficient For me, it's important that the dishwasher is environmentally friendly. With an energy rating of B, I save on my energy costs. Normally, the economical eco program takes a long time. With this machine, it's not too bad. I have clean dishes in a maximum of 220 minutes, which is relatively fast. I usually turn on the eco program at night when I'm not in a hurry. With the fan-assisted drying technology, the last drops air-dry because the door opens at the end of the program.

Automatic Dosing System I automatically dose my detergent via a reservoir that I fill manually. I place the reservoir in a flap on the inside of the door. This way, the dishwasher always adds enough detergent and I never use too much. There's also a compartment for regular detergent tablets.

Clean baked-on residue I clean baked-on pans more effectively thanks to the intensive zone at the bottom of the dishwasher. The water pressure is higher there, which removes curry residue more quickly. This way, I don't rinse my dishes beforehand, but put them in the dishwasher immediately. After the cycle, all the residue is gone.

Low noise The low noise level of a maximum of 42 decibels is quieter than average. This means I'm not bothered by noise and can even use the dishwasher in an open-plan kitchen. This allows me to work quietly at the kitchen table, even when I'm in a meeting.

Very satisfied for the money you pay for it.

The design of the racks is not ideal, especially the second rack (in the middle). Glasses do not stay upright and fall over very easily. The extra side shelves also cannot be placed horizontally, which is inconvenient. However, the dishes do come out clean. The internal lighting is nice. The digital clock only works well in low light; during the day, nothing is visible on the floor, which is a shame.
