- The cycle times are quite long

+ very quiet,good cleaning,very pleased considering it is one of the cheaper models on the market.

- could do with a quick wash facility.

+ It makes a good job of the washing and more importantly the drying. An excellent purchase.

- None so far

+ reasonably good value for an integrated dw

- takes too long to complete wash cycle.

+ Good value for money, quiet, efficient.

+ really good cleaning performance for such a cheap machine and relatively quiet

+ cheap and works well

- none

+ Good all round 'basic' dish washer.
Easy to use

- For the money no complaints. It does its job very well.

+ The cutlery holder is abit strange, however i think i can remove some bits but have not looked any further, enjoying not washing up in the sink too much!

- None so far!

+ Reasonable price

- Limited programmes and being slightly deeper than usual for an intgrated unit it made it difficault to install.

+ QUICK & VERY EASY TO USE

- I HAVE NOT HAD A ELECTRIC BILL YET

+ Good value, one of the cheapest integrated dishwashers I could find.
Much quieter than my previous dishwasher.

- None worth mentioning.

+ works well, easy to fit but please note to wind the back foot down you have to turn the screw at the front of the machine...

- the cutlery basket is a bit big..

+ cleans well, not too noisy

- being built-in you have no idea if its finished or not (if you miss the audio signal) its a case of remembering what time you switched it on and working out how long the programme lasts.

+ Good price, low noise and cleans really well.

- Cycle is a bit long.....but the plates are clean,

+ Easy to stack and good value for money.

- Seems a little noisy at times, but not yet fully integrated,

+ I purchased Indesit because this is the third intergrated dishwasher I've had, they are good value for the money.

- If I put the dishwasher on when I go to bed, the finishing beeps wake my dogs up. I don't see the point of the beeps.

+ Cleaning is of a fantastic standard. Very quiet compared to my last one.

- The cutlery holder seams to take up an awful lot of space on the bottom.

+ I've owned 4 dishwashers over the years and I must say when my last one died I just went for the cheapest! and I am very pleased with it's performance, even my glasses are coming out clean, which is a first for me!!! My husband fitted it with ease!

- I personally haven't found any real bad points to mention as long as it gets my pots, pans and glasses clean I'm a happy bunny!!

+ easily fitted although diagrams a bit poor for installation, all pics and no words.

- bottom rack roller is a bit flimsy

+ cannot fault this machine does everything you would expect and cleans far better than my last one. superb value

- the cutlery tray tends to get in the way of dishes.

+ I like this machine as it is simple and easy to use (Yes it has few cycles - but who actually uses them all!)
Yes the cycles are quite long - but we put on over night so it does not really matter - It's been in 4 weeks now and to be honest there is nothing 'bad' about it.....

+ Don't be put off by it's value price this dishwasher couldn't offer any better performance excellent in all areas

- None. Star buy :-)

+ Excellent value for money & cleans well. Better than the expensive Bosch Dishwasher previously in my kitchen!

- None yet!

+ Washes and dries well, does the job it was bought for and is excellent value for money.

- Wash cycle does take almost a couple of hours which is not a problem once you get used to it.

+ Brillianr dishwasher.

- Wish it had a shorter programme. Shortest one is about 1hr 45mins. Although there is an economy wash wich uses less energy. Great dishwasher if you don't mind the length of the cycle.

+ very good value for money gives a really good wash and leaves things sparkling maybe even better than my last dishwasher which was a whirpool.

+ simple to operate

- none yet

+ Movable cutlery basket. Good clean and drying. Secure door.

- No quick wash cycle or low salt /rinse aid indicators but then you get what you pay for!

+ Functional and just does what its supposed to do at a price that makes sense.

+ Great value and easy to use. I don't like lots of gadgets on it as I tend to stick to the same program every time anyway. Definately recommend it.

- None really. Only reason I gave less score for noise was because it's not totally silent (but what machine is) and the first time we used it I had to wash a couple of items (but that's probably the way we stacked it. It does take quite a long time on normal cycle but that doesn't matter to us.

+ Cheap, easy to use and value for money

- Bit loud, no quick was cycle

- none really

- None

+ Really pleased and easy to install, Has a great handy feature that allows you to adjust the height of the rear legs by turning a bolt on the front of the machine. Appliance door a doodle to fit with the template given. A good basic machine.

- Not the quietest of machines but not too bad.

+ Fantastic will definitly buy another one if this packs in.

+ Price. Cleaning. Easy to install.

- Noisy, not many wash cycles.

+ excellent value for money and simple to use. why buy one with 50 different cycles when you only ever use 2.

- none so far

+ Very simple to program and does adapt to main program used. Fitting external kitichen cupboard door is very easy and gives a firm fitment.

- No rear leg adjustement for uneven floors.

+ just what it said on the tin ! great job

- none

+ Does what it says on the tin, the shelves are placed at good levels, so you can get tall stuff in the bottom bit. It seems to have lots of room. The front door panel was a doddle to fit, the controls are easy to use. I had a more expensive machine before, tis one is just as good, I just hope it lasts longer than the Zanussi.
All in all a good machine.

- There arent any bad points really, if I had to put one down i suppose its the cutlery basket. It goes in the middle of the bottom shelf. but im getting used to it now.
Its a good buy at the price I paid...Ive had 4 dishwashers and this is the cheapest one ive had, and its as good as the other top brands.

+ Value for money and cleans, rinses and dries very well

- Noisy and top rack layout design could be better

+ The indesit does the job efficiently and cleans the products well, far better than cleaning yourself so its a good work- horse in that way!

- Takes a while cleaning everything but not a major drawback.

+ every thing nearly 1st time ever had 1 and what a differnt wouldnt go without again

- no quick wash if need shoutist wash 2hrs +mins

+ easy to fit and fairly quiet with good washing

- none so far

+ Great price - great cleaning - easy installation especially being able to adjust rear feet from front - nice and quiet. A very good basic dishwasher - enough programmes to be useful - why does anyone need more than 4 programmes?

- Could do with a quick wash cycle,

+ Door was very easy to fit

+ Neat and simple to use

- Filter a little fiddly to clean but OK - would not put me off

+ Reviewer left no comment

- Lower tray runs off of rail when loading, don't like the moving cutlery tray, leaves a lot of ciondensation after drying cycle, normal wash cyle too long should have a shorter full wash, guess you get what you pay for.

+ Reviewer left no comment

- wash cycle too long

+ The dishwasher is fantastic cleans very well well worth the money

- none

+ Does what it says on the tin, much quieter than our old indesit dishwasher. Like the moveable cutlery tray, makes loading easier.

- Fairly long cycle time but can't complain as the price was so good.

+ Price

- Requires four adjustable legs in order to fit as a built in unit. It took me an hour to make a plinth to raise back of until so that the fit was OK
No "fingers" in top section to hold glasses

+ It is easy to load, the regular cleaning programme is excellent, especially if you use the rinse cycle if the dishes are to be left for some time before washing

- The only bad point is that it does seem quite noisey, but as opposed to having to wash everything by hand, I can live with that.

+ excellent results........

- wash cycle too long

+ Cleaning performance is very good and I tell all my friends about my new dishwasher. How sad is that!

- No bad points.

+ Great all round intergrated dishwasher.
Easy to fit. Value for money.
I purchased at the low end of the market as I wanted something that would perform and that's exactly what it does, the looks of the applicance was not on my priorty list when choosing as it is intergrated!

- Slightly noisy but not unbearable, would not let this put anyone off from buying this product!

+ It does what it was designed to do which is great, simple and easy to install and use with good results.

- None

+ good value and does the job

- programmes are a bit long

+ Cleans well, not the loudest
value for money

- Lack of programs

+ Very easy to install and operate. Only 4 programmes including an eco setting and no timer. Plenty of space in lower tray for larger plates, pot n pans. The cutlery box can be located in different areas which is handy. Cleans very well, runs quiet and although a lot less functions than my last dishwasher it's a case of less is more. If like me your looking for a cheap reliable replacement then I promise it won't disappoint.

- The cutlery box is slightly on the cramped side and the upper tray doesn't cater for larger glasses especially wine glasses which require careful stacking. But to be honest these gripes are being a bit harsh for such machine at this price. Don't be put off.

+ Wash & Dry good

- Door a bit stiff causing the dw to tilt forward. The top drawer is difficult to close when loaded.

+ Quieter than our last dishwasher. Door secure in the open position and doesn't swing up. Good wash facility.

- A wash cycle takes a while to complete

+ Excellent value for the money. Very impressed with cleaning performance.

- Not great installation instructions but I am an engineer by profession so worked it out fairly easily. Occasionally noisey.

+ Good cleaning performance, easy to use simple operation

- Not the best at drying, some items still seem quite wet at the end of the cycle.

+ Very quiet and reasonably easy to load.

- Would have liked a quicker programme.

+ quiet, effective

- no quick wash

+ The dishwasher is very quiet when in use. It is easy to load and takes two days worth of dishes from a family of four in one wash. Very good value and would highly recommend.

- The rinse-aid instructions on the manual are difficult to understand as it refares to other models. It did take a couple of washes to get this sorted but is fine now.

+ QUIET AND EASY TO LOAD

- WASH CYCLES TAKE TOO LONG - NO QUICK WASH
