I need a new integrated dishwasher!

[TR888]

Ours has stopped working after 10+ years of heavy use. Which one would you recommend? We're a family of 5 and put it on at least twice a day. I'm not interested in bells and whistles, just in reliability and sturdiness.

It must be integrated. Thanks!

Can anybody help?

We have a Neff
Have had it for about 8 years - use it once a day though (sometimes every 2nd day) so a lot less usage than yours.

Thanks! I hear good things about Neff.

I have a Miele integrated and a Miele freestanding. Love them both. Have also had Neff and that was good too. All depends on budget!! I prefer the ones with a top tray for cutlery instead of a basket.

I agree with Neff. We got their entry level one and it has been excellent.

I bought a Neff before Christmas and really like it. We use it daily, sometimes more. The only slight issue is that it doesn't bleep when the cycle is finished.
I wanted another Bosch but no one had any stock, and after 6 weeks of washing up waiting for stock to come into JL, AO, Hughes etc I found a couple of integrated Neff models in the local Euronics store. I don't know if the stock situation is any better now, I have had 1 email telling one of the models I wanted was back in stock.

Our integrated one broke and I replaced it with a freestanding one in the gap. It was so much easier and cheaper.

We did this too - for the same reasons.

Yes, freestanding dishwashers are meant to be better but they wouldn't work in our kitchen.

I've seen a Bosch one which seems ok. Our current one is a Bosch too and I guess it's lasted well considering the heavy use it has.

When I had to replace my integrated, I found that there wasn't a lot of difference in the costs when you factored in most only had the 12 or at best 24 months warranty. So I opted for a Bosch with their 5y warranty. Its great!

We have Bosch and it is used at least once a day, sometimes twice and now 6 years old and works perfectly. If it broke I would get another Bosch one.

We replaced our 12 year old Bosch with another Bosch last year. The original one did 12 years of great service without a hiccup. This one seems fine, although not as quiet as we were promised.
To be honest we had no choice at all as there was a shortage last year (Covid, Brexit) & it was the only one we could get.

What about the brand you already have if it's lasted that long. X

Don't get hotpoint

Had a Bosch one which was great but came to end of life. Was short on money that month so went for a hotpoint. It's like a lottery every-time you open it up after a wash as to which crockery is still dirt. I clean and maintain it and it's still rubbish

Thanks everyone. In the end, I'm getting another Bosch, given your own good experiences and my own.

Can I recommend a Siemens? They are internally stainless steel,, whereas the Bosch is plastic inside these days. I vastly prefer mine to any other make and I've had dishwashers for many years.

Oops, too late! Argh, you make a really good point...
