I like how Malaysian nowadays more open to have dishwasher in their household so that we can easily get the soap with cheaper price. Anyway your voice is so calming :)
I honestly couldn’t live without my full size dishwasher. It really takes a lot of the work off my back as in our house washing up is my job and the dishwasher really eases the work load.
the one full tablet of soap is designed for large cabinet dishwashers. It is overkill for countertops. You can cut it down to half or less or there are also powder that you can pour yourselves
Thanks for this review! Very useful for me , who is considering and researching to get a dishwasher or not. I agree 15 minutes 2 or 3 times a day adds up!
Thank you for the effort in making this video. It’s super comprehensive and detailed. I’m from Singapore and I’m also considering getting a dishwasher. Am so glad to chance upon your video. Hope all is well in Malaysia!
Hi Starorsatelite, thank you for watching. I'm glad the video can help u make a more informed decision 🙂 thank you for your well wishes for Malaysia, we are healing in terms covid. Hope all is well with Singapore too, been there once, love it!
wow!!! thank you soo much! super comprehensive and relaxing vidoe! i bought 1 and didnt know how to put it as my countertop is not big enough, after watching your video, i know what to do now! you're brilliant!
Thanks for sharing. Very informative video. I just bought the same model. Would like to ask on the dishwasher cleaner that u mentioned when you explained on the salt. How fo you use the dishwasher cleaner? Thanks in advance 😊
Hi loved your video & lovely voice. May I know if I can put a stainless steel soup pot 30 cm long including its two side handles & 9.5 cm tall inside d bottom rack, and still hv space for 2-3 stainless steel plates ?
I just ordered the dishwasher! Can I know what tablet did u get? Is it from Finish? Cause I saw some users complaining that this dishwasher is not able to dissolve the whole tablet due to its size. So I ordered liquid detergent instead. Would appreciate your advice pls! Thanks!
Hey Winnie, wow good choice 👏 your life will change to the better. Yeah i use the Finish tablet and they awlays dissolve, and the dishes are very clean too. It just need longer wash time to dissolve that's why u need to select the suitable mode like EcoWash or Intensive. The 30min Quickwash mode won't completely dissolve the tablet 🙂
If your detergent won't dissolve quickly, you may wish to try a liquid dishwasher detergent as you mentioned (such as Cascade, available from places like AceHardware). Alternatively, powder detergent such as Finish Power Powder works very well too. If the cycle has a pre-wash, I really recommend the traditional powder route... it takes half a minute more but you can (1) use a small amount from the total separately in the pre-wash, usually I put it at front left corner, or even on the recess of any old coffee mug that's being washed in the load. (2) the actual amount of powder can be adjusted and tailored for each wash, varying it from 15ml to 25ml as required (I have a full-sized dishwasher, usually fully packed). The results from powder + rinse aid + (optional) salt are truly brilliant, and the running cost is also reduced from less wastage. The powder is going to be on sale again for the 10.10 sale too!
Other review commented that : 1.May have some soapy residue for items on the top shelf 2. Quite loud -60db 3. Dishes are not fully dry 4. No indication of cleaning stage or time remaining 5. Fixed tray May I please know if it’s very noisy and if you encounter all the above problems? I can’t decide if I should go for Bosh countertop or this , thanks so much
1. Yes there will be soapy residue if you choose the Quickwash mode (30mins). Choose the longer wash mode like Eco or Intensive mode then there won't be soap residues. 2. The noise is still ok for me, it's not very loud. U can hear water sound and at the end of the wash a bit of machine vroom vroom sound for a short while then followed by beep beep sound haha. If u close your kitchen door or stay in your room then you won't be able to hear the dishwasher running. 3. Ya dishes won't dry fully, but they are not soaky wet. Using Rinse aid solution will help dishes to dry faster inside. 4. Yup this model has no indication of time, the Bosch one has which is cool 😎 5. Ya the compartments are fixed.
Hi, thank you so much for the video. Really helped me to decide on purchase this dishwasher. Im so thankful to found your video!!! just need a little help here, how long is the electrical cable they provided? My plug point in the kitchen a bit further away from my sink, so, if you can share this, at least i can have a rough idea about the length so that i can connect it. Thank you so much!!😘
Dear Mamified, Really appreciate all your detailed replies and thanks so much for your time ! :) As you mentioned you usually use intensive wash, that’s why there won’t be any soap residue ? How long does it usually take ? U mean the dishwasher will automatically heat up the tap water according to the temperature mode we select ? Is your 32cm Tefal pan non stick ? Can I place any non stick Tefal pan ? Also stainless steel Thermos water bottle for kids ? As Bosch SKS62E32EU Serie 4 Compact is about the same price ( but I guess smaller interior space ?), so I can’t decide between the two . As I never used a dishwasher before , would you mind me asking if you had also made a comparison between Bosh & Electrolux before buying ? If so , would you mind to share with me your thought that helped you to make a final decision on Electrolux ? Thanks a million ! :))
After one washing cycle, can this dishwasher help to heat and dry up plates to complete dry without a single drops of water?and mind share are inner dishwasher wet or dried up after cycle done?
@@mamifiedlandu mean plates and cups will not be completely dry after one cycle?how about will lots of water drips from above tray to lower tray?asking this because i experienced this and i want my new dishwasher not having this issue
HI, thank you for your instruction video, is very useful, I just bought a new one, 1-does it need to install HOT water ? 2-How long should the machine start to work after I turn on it , does it need 3 mins ? thank you very much
Hi thanks so much for your review :) may I pls check: 1. If 28cm / 32 cm Tefal stainless steel frying pan/ wok able to fit in ? As I saw a stainless steel pot in your video which looks quite big too. 2. Are your plates warm after washing ? Does it completely dry the plates ? If it’s not completely dry and leave it overnight , will there be some smell ? 3. Do we need to have hot water tap ? Does it use hot water to wash ? 4. How does it dry the plates ? High temperature hot air ? Thanks so much :)
Hi Gloria, my answer as below: 1. i hv put my 32 tefal pan in to wash before when i don't have many plates or small appliances to wash, i just put it face down, u can put it on the top or bottom rack, but it will take up quite some space. Normally i handwash my big appliances. 2. Yes my plates are hot after washing. No the plates normally don't dry up completely after washing, i will open the dishwasher door and after a while they will get dry. You can add in Rinse aid into the dishwasher, it will help dry the dishes quicker. I didn't show the use of rinse aid in the video, but u can follower the user guide. 3. No need hot water tap, dishwasher will make it hot. 4. I'm not sure how it dries the dishes, but i think it uses the heat. Hope this helps 🙂
If I just wanted a quick rinse on clean plates or even washing fruits, is it possible to do without the washing powder and press quick mode ? :p Thanks so much :)
Hi....can I just ask what is the largest plate (diameter) that can fit into the lower rack? My current dishwasher (used for 10 years already) is acting up, so may need to get it replaced in the near future.
Hi, I have the same question too! May I know which hardware shop? Your faucet looks like it'll be just right for my sink if I use one faucet for both sinks. Thank you for the detailed review. Love the efficient use of space & existing sink hole by getting the custom made cabinet! Hope to hear from you on the faucet. Thanks!
Hi Joyce Lee, you're welcome. Thank you for watching. I don't know if this is the biggest dishwasher for tabletop, i heard there's a Bosch 45cm, it's taller but slimmer than this electrolux. Perhaps u can check it out. All the best 🙂
@@mamifiedland thank you so much for the information. I did some research on the 45cm freestanding dishwasher and the one you had and found out both are 8.5l. Price are so much different. Now not sure which to purchase. 😅
To me, it is so worth it, very convenient, no matter what brand. Keep using it and u will get used to loading and arranging the dishes into the dishwasher.
Hi. Yes, you may use a dishwasher cleaner solution which I shared at 7:23 to clean. Put the whole bottle upside down into the dishwasher together with the basket (clearer instructions are on the bottle), then switch on your dishwasher and press on the "Normal" Cleaning mode or "Quickwash" mode or any mode which you prefer and the dishwasher will self-clean inside. Hope that helps.
Hi, if you slant the wok more it's still possible, but then it may take up a lot of space and you can't put more dishes inside. I have done it before, only once or twice.
It really depends on how u arrange your dishes actually. For 28cm height dishes you can only put them at the side, not in the middle of the basket, because the spray arm will definitely them. The safe diameter for plates for this model is around 25cm or 25.5cm
Very good evening, I am still undecided if I shld go for a bosch 45cm or this compact electrolux. Such a difficult decision. 😁. May I know what is the max height of a cup or mug that can be placed on the upper rack. All these piecemeal info will help me with my final decision.
If the Bosch compact dishwasher has an adjustable middle / upper rack, it'll be able to hold taller items such as tall drinking glasses, bread and butter plates etc. Sorry to mansplain, but when looking at pictures of the Bosch, if there is a differently coloured lever on the side of the basket, usually that's the height-adjustment lever. That allows the basket to be raised or lowered to accommodate taller items in either basket, but not both at once. Hope this helps. If you have the space, I'd recommend the 45cm floor-standing model as that'll have more capacity, useful if you have a more family members or eat-in all the time (we have a full-sized and still have to run it once a day as dine-in is too risky).
Hi Cx, maximum bowl diameter for the upper rack is around 11.5cm. I just watched the bosch 45cm, i like it too, it shows the timer, a feature which this electrolux dishwasher doesn't have 🙂
@@LemLTay The bosch 45cm does have adjustable height at the upper rack. This will be my second dishwasher. Been using a compact washer for twelve years already, now in the process of changing it out. Just want to make the right and practical decision, afterall these machines do last a long time judging from my current one. Anyhow, thanks for the input.
Hi, from Singapore! just got this dishwasher based on your recommendations! It's really helpful when entertaining and helps a lot with cleanup. However, anyone using this model notice a very thin layer of soap residue on the plates after washing? You can't really see it, just feel that the plates and bowls are slippery. I've also noticed that it happens more for lower quality plates such as IKEA plates whereas the more expensive porcelain ones don't have the same issue. For reference, I'm using finish powerball detergent tablets on eco wash cycle most of the time, without dishwasher salt and rinse aid. Anyone facing similar problems and what did you do to resolve it? Thanks in advance!
Hi, u can use a rinse aid. I had the same problem too before using rinse aid solution. If u don't want to use a rinse aid, u can manually rinse your dishes with water again or wash 2 times by choosing the "Rinse" mode after u finish the 1st round of washing. The rinse mode won't take long.
No dry button, but there's an indication at the status area, whether it's washing or drying. The machine will auto dry the dishes but it won't be 100% dry :)
