Barrie, Falmouth

+ Basically, the Zanussi zsf 2440s, has revolutioned our lives. Quick, very easy to load,efficient, the pots etc come out sparkling. For a Table Top model, I don't think it could be bettered. My Wife didn't want one,as she said that she had used at work where inefficient. Now she would not be without it

- One as I can think of at the moment

+ Decent enough size, seems well built, cycle times are good, very quiet.

- Plates only just fit inside the dishwasher, and even then the cutlery tray gets in the way.

+ Excellent machine. It even counts down the mins until the programme is complete. Also has a pre-wash too, and an eco mode that takes longer but uses less power and water overall.

- None really, except maybe the height - you can only just get a normal dinner plate in the unit.

- thought it would be sligthly less noisy (but acceptable), rack for cutlery too large (half size would be enough to save room inside dishwasher)

Lis, London

+ quiet, does the job, need to read the instructions to realise that only half a tablet required - every tried cutting one in half? suggest you recommend powder only and include a plastic measure

- Difficult to load - doesnt take anything larger than 10 inch plate, wont accomodate modern angular china, cutlery rack top should be in 2 halves so larger items can be put in ie my large cutlery knives wont fit, loading basket falls off its runners, and loading design is cackhanded - prob designed by a man - having said all that in a tiny kitchen it does the job but the economy program doesnt appear to be very economic - it comes with a sticker on the front which leaves residual glue and instructions say not to clean with solvents !!!!!!!!! so how do you get it off

Geoffrey, Porthcawl, Glamorgan

+ A smart looking machine with easily visible controls. Loading the dishwasher is simple and it has a large capacity for a table-top.

- The programmes take quite a while to complete - but maybe this is not a bad point? The dishes always come out very clean!!

+ Amazing product. Has changed out lives! We're two busy professionals who hate washing dishes. Bought this dishwasher as Xmas present to ourselves and we're VERY happy with it.

- Would have been nice if it came in white. The silver is ok but it clashes with everything in the kitchen.

Cheryl, Crewe

+ It was one of the only tableop dishwashers with 6 place settings, it is quiet and very easy to use.

- The only place where we can place the dishwasher is on a corner of the kitchen with the door opening on the right hand side, he place for cups is on the left hand side and because i am only short i have to stretch around here to put the rest of the dishes in. it would be helpful if you could either turn it around or be able to buy the dishwasher with a choice of which side you would like the cup rack.

+ This is my second Zanussi dishwasher (tabletop) and it is as good if not better than the first. It appears to be bigger internally and therefore takes a large dinner plate with ease. It is certainly quieter and deserves the 10/10 rating I personally have given it.

- I could find no bad points with this product.

+ Large range of choice of settings including economy and a quick half hour cycle. Rinse Aid indicator. Fits compactly on counter for small kitchen. Is quiet. Removable cutlery basket. Removable tray. Easy to clean the filters. Only have to use half a dishwasher cleaning tablet.

- Door doesn't pop open to aid drying process - have to remember to manually open immediately at end of cycle. Previous compact dishwasher had two trays and was six settings, this only has one tray with four settings - but it is slightly smaller which is a plus. Tops of tall glasses don't dry properly.

Judith, Conwy , “Wheelchair user!”

+ The display of timing/wash cycle.

- Even at highest temperature, the cleaning cycle does not get the crockery and cutlery very clean.
In order for a complete wash, I have to previously wash/soak dishes, even things like a small dish used for only milk/breakfast cereal. The glasses/cutlery do not have that sparkle they used to, despite using the recommended brand of dishwasher detergent, defeating the purpose of having a dishwasher! I am very disappointed in the overall performance, particularly since it costs more than a larger, family dishwasher. whatever the state of the dishes, I never had to do this with my previous dishwasher

+ Saves me from washing up, a job I loathe with a passion. Very good at cleaning, and efficient.

- Can be a bit fiddly to load, and I would dispute its claim to hold six place settings if this is supposed to include pans.

Angela, Sheffield , “Female.”

+ It wasn't cheap, but I've bought cheap dishwashers in the past and wasn't happy with them. It has an economy cycle that takes a long time, but I can put it on overnight or before I go to work. For a compact dishwasher it is very spacious, and for low to average soiling the cycle takes 35 minutes.
It's extremely quiet and the dishes are very clean.

- Price a little on the high side.

+ Well made, with pleasing tactile quality.
Excellent at what it does.
very quiet, good at washing

- The rack inside has an awful lay out that only some "standard" sized/shaped place setting will fit in easily.
that said I have found this to be true of most dishwashers I have used.
Works fine but loading is more of an effort than it should be.

It is quiet, even when running in the night it is good
Very easy to use, just turn on and press one button.

- The plate rack will not quite take full size plates, They have to tb loaded slanting back and just rub the roof but neverthless workable are ok

Claire, East London

+ It is small and compact but takes quite a lot of items. Great range of cycle choices and cleans and drys very well. It looks nice.

- It is very difficult to put in items at the back of the rack as the tray does not come out far enough. Compared to a full size dishwasher it is very expensive, but compared to the other table top dishwashers on the market it is competitively priced.
