Indesit IDL 530

easy to install/plumb in. clear instructions and no hassle working!

the filter is a little difficult to remove and clean.

a very good buy...economical, quiet and efficient.

Easy to plumb in. Good instructions. Simple to use

Haven't found any yet.

Can't go wrong for the price!

Quite simply - it does what it is supposed to. Real labour saver.

Extra energy & water needed.

Good value at the time.

Value for money machine

Noisy cycles

A good overall machine and value for money.

controls aere easy to use and require minimum of adjustment

racking on upper shelf is not user friendly

Cleans extremely well

Have to re-set cycle, if current cycle is interrupted (our old one, just continued it's cycle when the door was closed again).

THe hose for emptying the dishwasher THe hose for emptying is much shorter than the last one and we have had to stretch it to fit the soil pipe connection. It bubbles back sometimes and we have a leak on the floor.

Really quiet holds lots of dirty items.

Some times it seems to be difficult to start the cycle you need to use

It is compact. A reasonable price

The main problem with this model is the noise during running time. considering diesel cars are nearly as quiet as petrol models I would expect a modern day dishwasher to be a lot quieter than a model that was probably 8-10 years older. Our old dishwasher was a lot quieter than this model. The layout inside is a bit cramped

Good Value Does a good job.

easy to use, quick and economical

Fair choice of cycles. Good value for money. Environmentally-friendly. Ok if you're just washing place settings from a meal.

Can't pack large saucepans or mixing bowls easily, as none of the lower racking falls flat. Glasses fall over as they are not held in place properly by vertical plastic walls; resulting in possible breakages. The top racking sections for cups/glasses are not segregated by vertical plastic, so you have to balance cups against cups etc. The bottom shelf cannot be fully-packed with dirty plates as the separators are so close together that plates don't always get washed properly; this makes it not so environmentally-friendly. There is a design fault in that when you push the bottom shelf into the dishwasher any objects placed in the outer separators push into the rubber door seal, so you have to hold them forward or risk future damage to the seal.

Good dish washer - never had to put anything in twice. Have put in all my ornaments - some very very disgustingly greasy items and they SPARKLE.

None

Very pleased with the item Would recomend

easy to use and quiet would recommend this product

cant find any bad points at present

Gets the job done. Glasses sparkle. Value for money.

Difficult to reset the cycle once interrupted.

Great. Love it. Value for money.

Cheap to run, quiet and uses less water/electricity. Good layout for putting in dishes. Lots of choice for cleaning from intensive to economy. Looks nice.

Stupid on/off switch arrangment - seems to have a mind of its own!

Overall very satisfied with this product.

Easy to use, instructions easy to follow, good inside space with adjustable rack.

Value for money, easy to use, not too noisy.

Easy to use, but if you want to stop the machine to add something you can't simply open and close the door

Style

Washing performance

This model replaced my old indesit dishwasher which i had for 12 years. The performance of this machine is not nearly as good as my old one.

Easy to use

I find the machine does not like pans or heavily soiled bowls

Bit disappointed with overall performance

Excellent 25 minute rapid wash, not too noisy and is perfect for a family of 4.

None

It is excellent.

It uses the full 60mm width of fit in units so you have to be careful that it fits in. Our only concern is that indesit does not have a good long term reputation and we wonder whether the excellent performance so far will continue. I think the sales info should draw attention to the fact it is only a cold water fill.

Good space for stacking, I can fit more in so need to use it less - once or twice a week

The economy cycle may take less water but takes far longer so using more electricity

It usually washes the dishes! I bought this model to replace my old Indesit dishwasher, which was excellent and very user friendly.

It takes a long time to get started. I've often gone to bed thinking that the dishwaher is working only to get up and find that nothing has happened. There are no salt and rinse aid indicator lights.

Good cleaning, No sticking out Dials, basic programmes we have 5 people living here and enough programmes to use.

overall size doesn't fit it as bits stick out each side of door, small inside, could be a bit bigger, everything tight to fit in.

It washes the dishes well, has never left dishes dirty (yet)not even pans and ovenware.

The 'quick' cycle actually takes longer than the regular cycle (!?) Part of the cutlery basket bent/shrunk (looks like the heat) after 4 uses, then it snapped. It's not very quiet, (although not exactly noisy).

Good value, easy to use, good choice of programmes.

Can't think of any!

Very good machine. Economical to buy and to use. Easy to use too. Nice looking machine.

changeable height of top rack

water inlet and outlet pipe too short to reach under sink

easy to use, quiet quite quick

Quiet and efficient and a good size

cleans well looks neat and tidy

sometimes doesnt switch on when you press button and have to listen for it too start to make sure it is on

Easy to use and load. I particularly like the cutlery basket, which separates the cutlery and means for example spoons don't get stuck together and hence are washed properly.

Easy to use, quiet and no problems found - it does what it says on the box !

Simple, easy to use and does everything you want from a dishwasher.

Does feel quite cheap.

nice finish and fast cycle

noisey

Yet another fantastic Indesit product - my last one lasted 10 years - true value for money.

The Cycle time is longer than my last model and that has taken some getting used to (Saying that I always use the longest cycle anyway so the others may well be acceptable)

Has a quick wash cycle of 25 minutes

Doesn't dry dishes as well as I expected

Overall good purchase and I'm pleased with it - it has saved me a lot of time already!!

The dishes come out clean and dry. You can stop and add more items without restarting. It's easy to use.

None that I am aware of.

A good buy.

it takes quite a while to

never will my hands get wet from washing up, i love it

Quiet and discreet in use. Easy to install and operate.

None

Good as any expensive dishwasher

None

Does what it says on the box! Cleans very well and dries pretty good too.

No real bad points.

Very good dishwasher.Runs very well.

Good value for money dishwasher with excellent cleaning. Wash status clearly indicated.

Top drawer action not very smooth. Noisy. Tablet/capsule tray too small.

a very good product

no bad points

very pleased with the dishwasher

good value, pleasing product

item a bi8t bulky and sticks out further than otehr appliances. Top section dosappointingly shallow and will not hold larger glasses, whihch need to be placed in the dish section in the bottom

An excellent selection of programmes for different levels of soiling. The "Rapid 25" is particularly useful as it cleans quite soiled dishes in only 25 minutes.

None.

Cost

Should have spent more machine very flimsey

just great

It still takes time for me to work out another programme the start and reset button should be seperate as this is very difficult to work out

All in all a very good little unit. Looks ok, cheap and works well.

Noise! but don't let this put you off.

easy to use loads of room inside for bigger items

Cheap and cheerful.

A bit noisy, the door and feel much lighter and less solid than our old dishwasher. Simple enough to use.

very easy to use, instructions are clearly explained.

nice, neat looking dishwasher that cleans really well on all cycles.

the door is very lightweight and therefore can sometimes open too quick or spring back up unexpectedly

Very easy to use cleans at alow temperature

Could be a little bigger inside

Really easy to use.

Adequate cycle options from quick rinse to intensive wash

Cutlery tray is no good - the handle falls off it you have more than half a dozen knives and forks in it.

cheap and relativiely easy to use

door lifts up by itself unless the bottom basket is pulled out and loaded with something fairly heavy, or the basket is also lifted. Top basket tends to get snagged on the detergent dispenser

Very easy to use

None!

THE COST

great value for money and does the job

does not have a timer but buy a socket timer for a fiver and it is just as good

easy to use

it's exactly as I required

Simple controls and not cluttered up with unwanted programmes

very easy to use and understand excellent product

have not found any

very good product - does the job it was bought to do.

Nothing found at present

Generally a very good product

Low cost

The dish racks do not cater for deep dishes and are flimsy. The door does not stay open.

Affordable and easy to use. The cutlery basket is easy to take out which makes it safer to unload whilst my toddler is about.

The short cycle doesn't clean very well - even when the dishes aren't very dirty.

Doesn't seem to give a good clean everytime.

so easy to use

This dishwasher is easy to use No complicated dials!

It sometimes takes a while start working, having been switched on.

quiet, washes well. good variety of programmes. easy to operate

do not like the lay out of the bottom rack compared to my old indesit.

the quick wash that also washes great

no salt indicator

Cleans very well, and is much quiter than our last dishwasher

A very nice machine, well worth the money

Quiet. Easy to understand controls.

Only the number 1 cycle really works, even for 'normal' loads. It doesn't dry dishes well and anything plastic comes out dripping wet. Drawers aren't well designed, things slip around and cups/glasses tip over.

easy to use

cycle time is long, uses more electricity than expected

Excellent value for money

Non so far

Very effective wash. Quiet. Exactly what we wanted.

Haven't found anything to call a bad point!

Excellent price. Good value for money. Indesit brand is always reliable

It was the right size for the requirements

Can be a bit noisy

Quiet, economical, value for money, efficient.

Slightly fussy and complicated to start.

Low price

Poor design of tablet compartment Bleep almost inaudible

Generally good overall.

Loading tray is not user friendly. The earlier model was much much better.

price point, simple ease of use

none really

Good cleaning results, AAA efficiency for a good price

It might just be mine but for the first 10mins of each cycle there is a very loud noise, kind of like a grinding noise. We had an engineer out to replace a panel damaged in transit and i asked him to look at it. Unfortunately i wasn't there and he phoned to say that it was sorted. It isn't!! So i guess that it maybe is meant to make this noise. If anyone can let me know if theirs does, i would be very grateful.

cheap

tempremental. It has certain error codes that flash now and again, but there is nothing in the instructions telling you what most of them mean

easy to use

a bit noisy

Good value for money and washes better than previous dishwasher

None so far

not noisy beeps when cycle done

none so far

very convenient and user friendly

a bit noisy

Option for an ECO wash. This suits us as we are not in a rush to have cycle completed.

Maybe better space for tall glasses, eg wine glasses.

Dishwasher is really easy to use - having just one dial and basic settings makes it ideal. Nice spacious inside and like the cutlery rack with the choice off adding on the separator bit !

Not found any yet

Excellent value for money

could be better display and time remaining feature, but that would not doubt cost more

My first dishwasher, no fancy settings, does what it says on the tin. No problems at all so far.
