Zanussi Electrolux ZDS231 - Dish washer - 45 cm - freestanding - white

My dinner plates don't fit into the dishwasher which I find a real hassle because that is what I bought it for! I work long hours and the last thing I want to do is wash dishes.

It's a Zanussi, never had a bad experience with a Zanussi, whatever the appliance.

Can't think of anything bad to say

Extremely quiet performance, washes and dries well.

Not the easiest machine to load unless you have regular sized and shaped crockery. I can't get as much in it as my previous slimline Zanussi and it takes a lot longer to wash.

easy to use

none really

This smaller machine does an excellent cleaning and cycling job and is excellent value for money. It is a remarkable improvement on the replaced (10 year old) machine; very clean and shiny results. Top marks

noise suppression could have been much better. Casing at times rattles and seemingly no or too little noise deadening materials were used. This was a replacement for a full size Miele - downsizing because of only two in family now. The difference in...

Cant think of anything about it that can be called bad.

Simple, easy to use programmes, very efficient for size. Highly recommended.

Inability to lower/remove plate rack on lower tier at back.

Only neaded a slimline, and its perfect, its quiet and the economy wash doesnt take too long and everything is sparkling, has to be one of my best purchases

Excellent cleaning Easy to load Good value for money having shopped around Doesn't take that long to complete a cycle Generally really pleased with product.

Makes quite a lot of noise compared to our old one, but cleans better. I wish it had an adjustable bottom basket as its easier when washin large pans like pressure cooker.
