+ Inexpensive. Good loading system (although big glasses don't fit well in upper shelf). Good washing performance.

- It seems quite noisy (but this doesn't bother me as I don't eat near the dishwasher). Some bits of food tend to build up around the seal under the door - easy to wipe clean, though. Eco was cycle is very long (nearly 2 hrs)
