Are you able to easily get the tap connection on and off, any leaks, are there any flimsy plastic pieces I could accidentally break?
Thanks

Very easy to use.
I don’t use the hose because I would need a special tap fitting so instead I hand fill it. They give you jug for this. Very easy to fill.
There’s no flimsy plastic to break. Very easy to clean.
I’ll add that some plates don’t fit so I had to buy some more. Under 27cm diameter fit. Corelle make some. Medium saucepan with fit. A large won’t.

I’m considering a bench top dishwasher as well so this is good info! Thanks!

As far as I know this is the only one on the market that you can hand fill (it was when I was looking). If your tap has a thread then you can use the hose that’s supplied. You can even buy connections that allow you to leave it connected and use the tap as well otherwise you have to disconnect it everytime you want to use it. Too much hassle and that’s why I chose this one.

That’s really good to know. I do have a spare washing machine type tap in the “laundry” and space on top of the washing machine along with a power point so in theory it could be the perfect place for the dishwasher. I’m thinking of getting a second hand one maybe. Are they any good at washing plastic things (at least better than hand washing)?

Thanks, all this is very useful. It’s mostly mugs and cutlery, maybe a salad plate. Pet bowls

This one is perfect for you then. You can fit 24 pieces of cutlery and maybe 9 cups in there together. You can connect it to the tap or hand fill it. Washes last anywhere between 3 hours (economy) or half an hour.
The only thing to remember is you must open the door when the cycle is finished so the dishes dry otherwise mold may build up in there.

Nice, thanks. This is the stuff I need to know. Maybe when I get it I’ll start it and use the time to do other stuff then open it up
