lee, Bathgate

+ nice looking design, understated buttons and hidden handle, just enough capacity for 2 people, easy to use

- build quality doesn't match price, upper water jets take up space so pots and pans don't fit, limited settings, fixed temperatures

Nick, Newport, Wales , “Internet bargain hunter”

+ Small and easy to use. Very economical. And really cleans well

- Seems to use an awful lot of rinse aid even though it's on the lowest settings, and it's nearly impossible to fit pint glasses into the glass & cup tray. Shame it doesn't have a timer or some display to show how long the programmes have left to run as they take absolutely ages. Oh and it makes a slightly worrying clunking sound when it's in use because of the weird design of the lower spray arm.

Hilary , Southampton , “Mum of two”

+ It washes well and is quiet and reasonably quick

- We had the old model of this dishwasher before and it seemed better. The cutlery holder does not work well on the new one and there does not seem to be as much space as the rota hits the plates as it goes around and they are not big plates.

Ian, Holyhead

+ stainless steel exterior is nice. Quiet compared to previous model (Hoover)

- Not really a 10 place setting IMHO. Cant get long stem wine glasses in top shelf.* Does not dry dishes enough
Name has 'Red Dwarf' connection, people giggle when you say I've got a Smeg.
* Can move the shelf down but then you cant get plates in the bottom.

Karen , Basildon,Essex , “Im very fussy.”

+ The Black finish looks fantastic,Smeg is a quality brand and its surprised me how quiet the cycles are,plenty of place settings,all in all I would buy this product again.

- The only downfall is as its a slimline model there are plenty of place setting but that does limit space for saucepans or baking trays but its expected i suppose on this slimline version.

+ Fits neatly in small spaces when you haven't got the room for a full size dishwasher. Looks verys cool (in stainless steel)...for a dishwasher. Uses little energy and water on low settings and cleans really well. Good for 2 people.

- Takes practice to fill it to its optimum capacity but can easily do 2 days worth of pots and pans. Not big enough for more than a 2 person household.
