    Great machine if your plates are flat and you wash glasses by hand

    2/5
    I have given this dishwasher one star for cleaning well and one star for being reasonably quiet. We had the previous model and that lasted for six years of use (with one repair). We then purchased this newer model that looked very similar but claimed to clean more place settings. It has achieved this by making all of the prongs/slots much narrower. So now it only fits skinny, flat plates that do not have any rim. Furthermore, a change in design of the top drawer means that it is very difficult to load glasses without them tipping over. We curse every time we load it and can't wait for it to fail so that we can buy a different model.

    Disappointed

    I'm very disappointed. This dishwasher doesn't clean as well as my previous one. I thought that Hotpoint was about quality, but I was wrong.

    Disappointed

    2/5
    OK this machine is incredibly quiet, BUT I'm totally disappointed at the distance between bottom and top draws. It is just not big enough for normal sized dinner plates, so top rotation arm hits the plates. It has to be stacked with a maximum of 4 dinner plates at the sides to allow the arm to rotate. Shame they didn't lift the top draw by half an inch. Other than that, it's a good machine.

    Quiet but space layout awful

    2/5
    Positives Very quiet dishwasher Reasonably priced Specially looked for dishwasher with quick (30 min) function and display of time remaining so that’s good Very different to our old dishwasher which had dials to select programme but this one is easy to use Negatives Very poor layout. We drink pints of squash at mealtimes and it doesn’t really fit pint glasses in (only a couple on the top and then they’re not very secure). The tray on the top is annoying as you’ve got to remove it every time you add something to the top. After a week, my husband put it away in a cupboard! The gap between the prongs is small in places to difficult to fit all our pots in for a single day in our three-person household. It says it’s for 14 settings (I think) but over a day we probably don’t quite get to that even if we’re at home all day and have every meal at home. However if you add a couple of small pans (e.g. for soup) and a serving bowl you cannot get all our pots in for the day. Two or three times in the 10 days we’ve had the dishwasher, we’ve had to leave pots out for putting in the next day or wash pots by hand. We’ve also put the plates in the individual adjacent slots yesterday (rather than every other slot) and three of the plates were not washed properly. Having said that, it has washed the pots pretty well the remaining days. So not very happy. Did consider taking it back but that would probably be a lot of hassle. That’s the problem with buying online as you cannot really know how it would work with the types of pots you use daily. Even buying after looking at it in a shop might not have revealed the problems.

    Basic design fault.

    2/5
    Its OK, but none of our (normal-sized) plates fit into the basket without the rotor hitting them. Pretty basic design fault, and to think that someone gets paid well to design these things! Can't be bothered to return, will have to lay plates down and use up half the space. Poor. If AO had a clue about the products they are retailing, this unit would have been discontinued long ago.

    Designed by people who don’t load dishwashers.

    3/5
    Good dishwasher… but a bit over the top with varying directions of dish prongs. Could get more dishes in, if everything was slanted the same direction. Also, can’t adjust height of top shelf and it’s too low for our standard size dinner plates… can only fit in 4 (2 each side) so as to not interfere with central spinny thing. Quiet. But not energy efficient, as we need to run it more frequently than older Hotpoint model.
    Extremely busy mum.
