Baku@aussie.zone 1 month agoThanks for the pics! That’s worse energy efficiency than I would’ve guessed. I thought dishwashers were pretty efficient when it comes to both electricity and water usage, so I wonder what it is about putting it on a bench that makes it less efficient. You have to load it with cold water, right? That might be it. I think normal dishwashers generally connect up to the hot water pipe and then heat it as needed
I’m also wondering whether double decker models exist and are worthwhile. That seems like an alright amount of space, although you’d really need to practice loading and work out how much you can fit in it without ruining it’s cleaning capabilities
Is it heavy? Are you able to move it yourself? Any risk of leaving gouge marks on the bench do you reckon?

Yeah I was a bit sad to see such low energy efficiency :( And the water efficiency isn’t amazing either.
But at least I have something

Yeah. Maybe it’s kind of like dryers and more expensive models are more efficient. Pretty typical rich get richer type thing. Ah well, please if you don’t mind share some updates in a month or two as you’ve used it more and gotten used to all its little quirks!

Yeah I think that’s absolutely the case. This was a Big W buy so maybe Appliances Online might have offered something more efficient for a bit more money.
I just was desperate to sort my kitchen out and got something cheaper sooner

Yeah, I get that. Dishes are my biggest struggle with cleaning. I probably won’t get one for a few months, but when I do I’ll be so happy
