AO delivery was fine and on time. Dishwasher is quiet and I like the extra utensil holder for longer items. However, I was on the phone with Hotpoint for an hour because it was missing 2 feet which took a while to work out as their installation manual is really poor and doesn't explain a lot (esp for newbies!) e.g doesn't explain how to adjust height, how to remove kick stand, refers to 'Part A' when it doesnt even come with one etc.

Used it first time and two items came out dirty so not getting the 5 stars

The dishwasher is great but AO need to ensure the fitters can deal with the electrics as well as the plumbing. It's pointless paying for connection when the fitters are not allowed to attach a plug!

not as easy to load as my last one will take a bit of getting used to

This dishwasher feels robust and the internal fittings seem good quality. The motor is very quiet. I'm not too sure about the wash quality yet - maybe it's the way we load it, but on the Eco setting there were still food remnants on the odd dish. We are now trying the two Auto settings to see which will be best, which is a shame as I would prefer to use Eco to save water and energy. I haven't tried the 3D option yet. The reason I've given only 3 stars is that in my opinion the small cutlery shelf at the top is next to useless as the cutlery just doesn't come out clean unless there's nothing underneath the shelf. We only use the dishwasher when it is completely full so as to save energy and water. Also the little drop down shelves at the sides are not much use as once they are down you can't fit anything under them other than a small teacup and who uses tea cups these days? The upper shelf has had to be moved to the higher position as my dinner plates (which are small ones) on the lower rack were being knocked by the rotating arm. However I do like the foldable prongs on the lower shelf.

PVery quiet, easy to use, plenty of programmes to suit whatever wash you need

It’s a dishwasher that works for a reasonable price. Some minor quality issues with weak plastic in the load try, but other than that fine.

I think this is a very good dishwasher it cleans very well however both top and bottom trays are identical in in height and you can only fit plates that are 9 and 1/2 inches tall
