Place settings

The maximum number of place settings loaded into the dishwasher at once. A place setting is considered a set of dishes for one person: four plates (for the first course, for the second course, salad, bread), a saucer for dessert, a cup, a spoon and a fork.

The large capacity allows you to wash numerous dishes in the machine at once without starting the washing programme again. At the same time, a large capacity may be undesirable. Firstly, a capacious working chamber affects the dimensions of the entire machine. Secondly, such units consume more water. Thirdly, if there are not many dirty dishes, you either have to wait until it accumulates, or start an underloaded machine, wasting water and detergents. Therefore, when choosing according to this indicator, you need to consider real needs and not chase the maximum capacity.

Water consumption per cycle

The amount of water used by the machine in one wash cycle. Usually, it is indicated for a standard (universal) programme — at full load, without pre-rinsing, etc. Accordingly, in special modes, the consumption may differ from the indicated one.

The lower the consumption, the better. On the other hand, a reduction in consumption can harm the quality of the wash. So, when choosing an cost-effective machine, you should pay special attention to the wash class (see below). In addition, only models of the same capacity can be compared in terms of consumption — after all, the more dishes, the more water is required to wash them.

Hot water supply

Possibility of connection of the dishwasher to a source of hot water. With this connection, the water enters the device already heated (unlike the usual procedure, when the machine heats the water to the desired temperature) — thus saving time and energy. However, the hot water supply is quite demanding on the quality of water: in most cases, it must have a temperature of 60-65 °C and flow without pressure drops.
Note that hot water supply is an option, not the only solution; machines with the possibility of such a connection can usually work according to the standard scheme, from a source of cold water.

Upper basket adjustment

The ability to adjust the height at which the top basket of the dishwasher is located. This adjustment allows you to adjust the device to the height of the dishes: for example, by moving the basket down, you can load large items into it, such as pots or pans.

Inverter motor

The presence of an inverter motor in the design of the dishwasher.

Inverter motors differ from conventional ones in the absence of a commutator with brushes (which is why they are also called brushless or brushless). Such units have higher efficiency (and, accordingly, less energy consumption), low noise levels and improved safety — the absence of brushes means a minimum likelihood of sparks. On the other hand, other things being equal, models with inverter motors are noticeably more expensive.

Dimensions (HxWxD)

Dishwasher dimensions in height, width and depth, respectively. A fairly obvious parameter; we only note that often when looking for a place to install, the width and height of the unit are of key importance.

In most modern dishwashers, the width corresponds to one of the standard values (plus or minus a centimeter): 45 cm for narrow models, 65 cm for standard ones and 55 cm as a compromise between these dimensions. As for the second size, dishwashers with a height of up to 60 cm inclusive are usually classified as compact, such models mainly involve installation on a table, cabinet or other similar stand. Height over 60 cm already allows you to put the machine on the floor.

Country of origin

The country in which, according to the manufacturer, a model is manufactured. Despite the fact that most of the factories are concentrated in China, European factories ( Germany, Italy, Spain, Turkey, Poland) for the production of household appliances have not gone away. And some models can be produced there. In general, such a division into a Chinese or European factory should not particularly affect the quality of products, but the stereotype of a reliable European assembly is present in us. However, it is possible that the model may have a country of manufacture, for example, Poland, and in the store under the same article you will meet China.
