Matsui MFI45 Reviews: Built-in, 44cm wide, Grey Dishwasher

+ Slimline, efficient, easy to use

- A little slow on cycle times

+ ease of use and you can get alot inside because of the folding racks

- lentgh of wash does take around two hours

+ easy to fit.

- none

+ Does exactly what it is designed to do with no fuss. Easy to use.

- Standard dinner plates do not fit in this machine. The top spinner hits off standard plates and will not rotate. You will find it difficult to find plates small enough to work. Suggest you buy rectangular plates from IKEA as they fit the machine and are affordable. The wash cycles are quite long so do not be tempted to open the door too soon, there is no indication of the length of cycle in th instructions.

+ The size internally is good.

- Does not seem to clean unless on the longest wash, even then not all items are clean.

+ it fits neatly into the space. Easy to fit up.

- Long cycle and only a choice of two settings.

+ Washes well though tablets don't fit in dispenser - I just set them on top of the cutlery basket and it works fine. Extremely well priced.

- A bit noisier that a top brand but who cares if you turn it on before going out or at bedtime.

- The top basket is situated too low in the dishwasher - this means that there is no-where to stack full size dinner plate - i have to wash them all manually - not why i purchased a dishwasher.

+ The dishwasher is good value foor money and is good as it fits in a small place.

- The cycle time is very longer and also there is limited room on shelf height.
(I am still hppy with the dishwasher though.

+ Cheap

- poor wash quality

+ Cheap, simple and fits well in a small flat

- Bit noisey and the cycles go on for a long time.

+ cheap, good reliable

- rather a long washing cycle

+ Best priced slimline integrated washer we found.

- Washes do seem to take quite a long time but dishes do come out sparkling.

+ The dividers in each of the wire shelves fold down so you can have lots of plate spaces for example or a large area to put a pan or pot in. The shelves are quite deep so tall wine glasses can stand upright.

- Its a little basic on the programmes but for the price point it isnt bad.

+ Slime and cheap.. But does a really good job at cleaning the dishes.

- Tajes a long time for the cycle.. About 2 hours..

- motor makes non stop buzzing sound

+ Holds quite alot of dishes and cleans them well

- Would have liked some sort of time left indicator.Seems to take a long time to wash the dishes

+ dries the dishes very well. doesnt leave undissolved tablet in the bottom like my old dishwasher used to.

- doors heavy & springs up very quick

+ Cheap, simple to use, does the job

- a bit loud

+ it's integrated

- gutted i purchased this, it's noisy, my plates don't fit it in and it doesn't clean very well

+ easy to use

- very noisy

+ Inexpensive

- Very poor washing quality, difficult to fit, confusing installation and operating instructions.

+ The cycle is really quick and the dishes are cool when you remove them

- I woulod like a buzzer or something to tell me the cycle was finished.

+ Good value for money

- Operating Instructions do not go into enough detail

+ Cheap and only slimline integral dishwasher I could find.

- Only 2 wash programs plus a rinse program. No short or or reduced cycle time program for lighter washing. Hence not very environmentally friendly, have no choice but to always use the full cycle and thus wastes energy and money. Cutlery holder is badly positioned. My dinner plates which are not overally large will not fit, the distance between the tray and the rotating wash spindle/arm is too short and hence the spindle can not rotate if I load my dinner plates in tray. Competitive price but not very useful.

+ Not good a waste of money.

- Does Not wash properly.
Uses up too much rinse aid.
Takes far too long to wash each cycle.

+ The product fits neatly into the space. It was excellent value for money. The cycle time does not really matter to me. It is easy to use and easy to clear any 'cloggigng' by the odd food remant left on the plate!

- We thought the door was going to be a problem to fit but it was actually quite straight forward and all the necessary parts to fit the door were in the box.

- It wont work if you put in a standard size dinner plate

+ Easy to install easy to use

- None found yet but wondering if it will last a long time with it being a cheaper model

+ I don`t have to wash up, practical compact neat The end result is lovely clean pots

- its only got 2 wash cycles and can be noisy, it squeeks a bit too ,

+ Size, easy to use

- Wash time, noise

+ Excellent cleaning and feels very spacious for a slimline dishwasher.

- Quite noisy!

+ easy to use

- cant put large dinner plates in it without getting the edges chiped

+ Size, capacity, performance

- Bit noisy

+ The price of this product is the best thing.

- The worst thing about this product is the lack of availability of replacement parts! I bought the dishwasher three years ago, and was recently forced into buying a new dishwasher (same make and model), due to a part being redesigned slightly - the older part not being available anymore. Despite the new model being faulty when it was delivered, (the same part needed to be replaced...worrying) it is working now and is one of the cheapest slimline models around.

+ Installation was very easy and the build quality amazing for the price..............it beat spots off our previous diswasher (16 years old) on price and ease of installation.

- The adjustable height of the upper drawer is a problem for us. The 'legs' that hang down to allow this to be raised catch on our plates in the lower drawer, and this jams when closing. If I raise the upper drawer to avoid this I cannot get our wine glasses in it.

+ THE PRICE

- INTERNAL SIZE AND LAYOUT NO WHERE AS GOOD AS THE DIPLOMAT MACHINE I HAD TO REPLACE

+ very easy to use/set program

- very flimsy, the bottom rack comes off runners very easily when any plates etc are stacked in it.

+ Great little dishwasher. Able to get lots in it. Easy to install - even the door (with a little bit of common sense as the instructions are not brilliant!). Would definitely recommend this product.

- None.

+ It is easy to adjust the height of both front and back legs from the front.
It has slide runners for easy positioning.

- The template for fitting the aesthetic door was way out.
The instructions for fitting the door were difficult to follow.
The general fitting instructions were confusing in places.

+ Cleans well - its a dishwasher and does the job

- Noisy

+ for a small machine that fits into a tiny space, very efficient

- baskets could have had better design

+ Excellent slimline dishwasher, perfect for our needs, brilliant wash easy to use simplicity itself.

- none.

+ Decent cheap dishwasher

- No short cycle
too many beeps

+ Excellent value for money. Really easy to set up and get started - very straightforward.

- None

+ its small enough for the space we had

- The spring is too strong that holds the door making it very difficult to use as you have to hold the door at all times or it springs back
The machine tips very easily when you try to open to door
The trays are not designed very well which makes it difficult to fit enough items in the machine

- Door too fierce , very noisy , poor layout internally , could not see controls with door closed when in use.

+ quiet, easily installed yourself,easy to lookafter, good size.

- top basket slightly too close to top for pint glasses etc.

+ Easy to install, does the cleaning job very well.

- Wash cycles are rather long. If you use larger plates they are difficult to fit in.

+ Excellent product -

- could just do with a little more room for big plates and maybe a little less for small plates! - the cutlery tray takes up some of this space and it could do with replanning

+ Simple, easy to use, good layout

- Unable to tell when the cycle is finished

+ Great price, we're limited for space in our kitchen and this fits brilliantly. most other integrated slimline dishwashers are over 300, but there is a downside

- Really badly designed interior! I know its compact, but you can't fit a dinner plate in any bigger than 25cm diameter or it catches on the spinning mechanism. on the top rack, the wires are spaced badly and all the cups and glasses keep falling over, unless of course you have tiny cups and glasses too. Fortunately there are only 2 of us using this so its not too much of an issue. If you're looking for this as a family dishwasher it really won't do the job.

+ Price, simplicity

- none

+ integrated, value for money and is quiet during wash cycle.

- dinner plates do not fit in easily.

- none so far.

+ ease of use ,economical on products and energy

+ Very easy to use

- None so far

+ Very easy to load and use, can fit more into it then you expect
