Dishwasher Reviews
We are not allowed to publish which dishwashers have been awarded a "Which? Best Buy" but you can access all their reviews (not just dishwashers) for just £1 for a 1 month trial. We strongly recommend reading their dishwasher reviews as each machine is rigorously tested so you know which ones will wash your dishes efficiently, quietly and with the least amount of energy and water consumption.
Before you buy
When choosing your new dishwasher, in addition to the standard features that you consider such as price, place settings and will it look good in my kitchen please also look carefully at energy efficiency and water efficiency.
Evidently Britain uses more water per head than any other European country and with weather patterns changing and the cost of recycling water getting more expensive in terms of both cost and the environment, we need to change our usage patterns.
Action plan: make sure that the dishwasher is full and perhaps soak heavily soiled pots 'n pans prior to washing, look for dishwashers that have wash programmes that allow for half loads or, if you are only a two person household, consider a smaller place setting dishwasher.
Summary
The main things to consider are:- Budget
- User reviews
- Reliability of brand & Best Buy (source Which?)
- Energy efficiency - the more efficient, the cheaper to run
- Size of machine - do you wash for a large family or just yourself
- Will it fit or do you need a compact dishwasher?
- Recycle your old dishwasher
- Cost - we include information on instore price, delivery charge, recycling charge and any money off vouchers so that you know you are getting a good deal
