+ It is a good machine, and me being a 73 year old woman it is very easy to operate. Some things you buy today are very difficult to handle for old people but this is easy.

- No bad points.

+ The cutlery basket is very good, easy to load and separate the cutlery.

- Not quite enough room for big plates, I had to bend the wires back so that the plates fit at more of an angle. But they still wash really clean.

+ Good washer does what it says it does. Also it comes with a cutlery basket.

- Only thing I can think of is the wash cycle is a bit long. This could be why it washers so well though.

Score 10.0/10

+ I chose this model after reading several bad reports on a more expensive machine. I particularily needed one to occupy a narrow space and this fitted the bill. I find it excellent in every way and would highly recommend it.

- There are none but the only minor thing i can think of is that when you switch it on you have to give the door an extra push before the green light comes on to start the machine.
