Hisense HS520E40WUK Slimline Freestanding Dishwasher 11 Place - White

Happy with our Hisense slimline dishwasher.

We've only used on the Eco mode and the washing is fine, though not quite as effective on occasional items, compared to our previous dishwasher (Smeg). I imagine it would be if we used a more powerful programme.

We really like the cutlery drawer. It means there's extra room in the main part of the washer for plates etc. Having said that we have lost a bit of height and that means the top drawer can't always be filled. The two small folding side racks often can't be used as cups under them push them up too much. Only very small cups would allow the racks to be down and used.

There are two small but useful racks at the back now, which are handy.

The delayed timer is also potentially very useful. I've alone tried it to see how it operates but intend to use it to make the washer work at night, so I can open the door in the morning to help the plates air-dry. The Eco was is quite long and we like to be there to open the door at the end of the cycle.

We certainly don't regret buying it.

Just a quick note on delivery. The Curry's lorry brought it, but only reluctantly took away the pallet that the dish washer arrived on. They said that with eBay, the customer keeps the pallet. That would have been a pain. Fortunately they changed their mind as the pallet wouldn't go through the garden gate so then the dish washer was off the pallet and they relented :)Read full review

Overpriced, poor design, and unreliable

Upper cutlery tray does not clean or dry cutlery, restricts height below and is fiddly. I use my old cutlery basket.
Keeps going wrong, water does not heat at all , was fixed then went wrong again this time water did not heat sufficiently to melt detergent tablet and all the contents had to be washed by hand. Apparently this is a common fault , just waiting for it to happen again. Once the guarantee runs out I will have to dispose of it, when it goes wrong againRead full review

Great Slimline Dishwasher

It slimline design doesn’t impact to greatly on how many dishes you can wash. I was worried about how many dishes I would be able to fit in compared to my full size dishwasher and it’s not too bad. Obviously it doesn’t fit the as many as my previous one but still enough, glad I went for the 11 place size. It’s fits nicely into my small kitchen. There are many programmes to choose from and its digital display tells you how long it will take. The cutlery drawer is great and a good design. Delivery was good and well organised and also had communication from AO prior.
I am very happy with my purchase and the free delivery through eBay was great.

As good as a Miele

A review which said it was as good as the nearly new Miele it replaced was right as regards cleaning the dishes but I doubt it will last as long as a Miele would but considering price difference it is betterRead full review

Disappointed

Have to set the program every time.
Doesn't dry the crockery or cutlery properly.
Cycle times on the settings nearly double those shown in the handbook (up to 3 1/2 hours).
