Still washing a year later! **UPDATE***
March 23, 2007
Still incredibly happy with this machine. Have it on the stainless steel rolling cart that is the perfect size. A great solution to a small kitchen and a sink full of dishes!I just got this dishwasher yesterday, so I will update this review if things go horribly wrong! Installation was easy -- the hard part was replacing my fancy kitchen faucet with a standard one to accommodate the attachment hose required (but that's a different story).
Within 15 minutes my friend and I had it up on my narrow counter (note that the legs of the machine are spaced at about 18" wide and 15" deep, and it's also a bit shy of the 19" depth stated in the specs), hoses tightened, faucet adaptor screwed in, and dishes loaded. I was able to fit in quite a bit of stuff -- but I doubt that my larger dinner plates will fit, since they are significantly oversized. But I usually just use my salad plates, as they are oversized as well.
With much excitement, I turned on the water and pressed the power button. And away it went! When it was done (maybe 40 minutes???) everything was clean except for the two coffee mugs that had been sitting with coffee for several days (ring of coffee that I had to wipe off). Oh, and there was a little chunk of salsa on the plate that had sat out overnight and dried. I wanted to test this little guy with some really dirty dishes. It passed. Oh, and there was no water leaking from any part of the machine, so apparently we did a good job of tightening the hoses. So after dinner and more dirty dishes, I ran it again before going to bed. So nice to not have a sink full of dirty dishes!
Overall, the machine is not tiny, but not huge. I will be buying a rolling cart to keep in on. I only have about 4 feet of counter space, so the goal is to free up the area that was used for drying dishes. It is also fairly quiet -- no louder than a traditional dishwasher (except for the water draining into the sink).
So, overall, I am very happy with my purchase. Since it only uses 3 gallons of water, I think I will be using less water than hand washing. And it also has a 1-year guarantee, so that gives me some piece of mind. Oh, and the best thing... It's silver.
I ordered thru [...] and it arrived quickly and in perfect condition. So if you're debating over a countertop model, and are willing to add a slightly odd looking contraption to your kitchen, I'd say give it a shot.
