How to choose a built-in dishwasher

1. Fully embedded .These will fit perfectly into any kitchen set and will be hidden behind the wall of the facade. Will suit those who do not want to spoil with the equipment the refined design decision.
2. Partially Embedded .They come with "open" buttons - the control panel will be visible. A practical option with easier control - no need to open the locker, all the keys in sight.

Choosing a capacious and compact dishwasher

The size of the number of dirty dishes per wash cycle can be processed by the machine. Therefore, you should not only worry about size, but also capacity( and therefore - performance).Manufacturers have created a simple formula for its definition: in the description for any model it is indicated how many sets of dishwasher you can wash at once.

What is a dish set? This is the number of plates and appliances you need for one full meal of 1 person. The kit usually includes:

• 1 deep dish;
• 1 small;
• 1 spoon and fork;
• 1 cup and 1 saucer.

Today you can purchase a model with the possibility of embedding, which is able to process up to 17 sets in one wash.

What machine will suit you? Compare and choose:

1. Small family up to 4 people. In this case, enough and a small machine, designed for 4-6 sets. There are less roomy "helpers" who wash only 3-4 sets at a time. In width, they are from 45 cm, in height - from 50 cm and in depth - also from 50 cm.
2. A family of 4 or more. For these buyers, the choice is the widest: models designed for 8-10 sets of dishes on the market the most. It exceeds the compact options in size: the height is usually 80 cm, and the width and depth - within 50-60 cm. This is the most popular option for the home - look at the latest products from leading brands.
3. Large families. You can use PMM more than standard - they wash from 11 sets, while they are not much wider and deeper, and they wash much more.

Important! Specify the function of half load( can be labeled as "partial" or "1/2").This is convenient for roomy cars - if necessary, to wash less dishes and save on water and electricity.

If you still haven’t decided which PMM you need: compact, medium or bigger, please note that large sets of utensils are not included in the kitchen sets: pans, pots, stewpans, etc. If you plan to wash all this, take a bigger option.

How to choose the right machine with the right modes

Wash

Every model has at least 4 washing programs today. This amount is enough to meet your daily needs. Typically, these types of cycles:

• Normal( or daily);
• Intensive;
• Soak;
• Fast.

Many manufacturers are not limited to standard functionality, you can find the following options:

• Glass washing( delicate);
• Economy mode( suitable for low and fresh pollution);
• BIO Wash( on this cycle, using special means, you can wash the dishes in almost cold water);
• Program for children's dishes, etc.

You can buy a built-in car with the possibility of automatic selection mode. But, as a rule, it costs much more - is it worth overpaying? You decide.

Temperature modes

If you are aiming for a decent purchase, it would be right to choose an option with an extensive selection of thermal modes. The more options - the more convenient. As standard, 3 levels of temperature are usually proposed: 40, 60 and 70 degrees. There are cars with autoregulation t ° water in the range of 40-70 degrees.

Resource Consumption: Water and ElectricityWhen choosing a technique, always look at how many resuses it uses. There are such options:

• Up to 15 liters of water per cycle. The optimal solution: usually such an expense is typical for large-sized and productive PMM.
• Up to 9 liters per wash. The best expense among the existing options today.
• 20 liters or more. It is unlikely that such an expense will be profitable for you - it is better to bypass a powerful electrical appliance with a party, if it is in your interests to save resources.

If we talk about electricity, this parameter is closely related to the previous one: the more water is used, the more electricity is consumed. Thus, an economical machine with a water consumption of 8 liters usually consumes about 0.62 kW.If the flow rate is higher - from 13 liters, then more energy goes - within 0.8 kW.

Is leak protection required?

The anti-leakage function monitors how the system is filled with water. There are options for full or partial protection:

1. . Full protection is typical for models of high price category. If we proceed from security considerations, this is the most optimal solution. When a leakage is triggered, the valve, which immediately blocks the flow of water.
2. The partial type of protection is characteristic of more machines. In this case, water does not flow when it flows into a special pan. This is also a reliable way to protect appliances from failures and malfunctions, and your apartment from flooding.

Choice by noise level

The lion's share of PMM work almost silently. The noise level can vary between 38-55 dB.Now you can turn on the technique at night, and it will not disturb even the most sensitive sleep. The only difference between the more and less noisy cars - the price. As a rule, the best models are silent and work within 45 dB.The rest - from 45 to 55 dB - work more noisy and will periodically remind of themselves.

Choosing washing and drying classes

Choosing a kitchen assistant, pay attention to such parameters as washing classes and drying methods. Speaking of washing classes, you can select the following options:

1. A( and above) .Perfect wash quality.
2. B and C - minor specks and dirt may remain. Although such classes are almost never released, still pay attention to this indicator.

Drying can be implemented in one of the types:

• Condensation .The dishes are washed, then dried naturally. Nevertheless, residues of droplets on surfaces are not excluded.
• Turbo. A more “advanced” option - in such typewriters dishes after washing dries out by blowing. The cost of models with turbo-dryer is much higher.

Selection by type of control

There are only two types of control: electronic and mechanical. The first is the most convenient, and the second is already receding into oblivion. Few manufacturers today produce mechanical machines for home and life. Therefore, immediately stop at the version with electronics - in this case, the equipment itself will be able to select temperature and washing modes, identify problems, show the time remaining until the end of the process, and much more.

Configurations, details of the installation

Hoses must be supplied with each dishwasher. Also, be sure to be able to safely connect to electricity - a power outlet with a ground cable connected. You can order the installation at the store upon purchase, or you can install it yourself.

Important! If you violate the rules during self-installation and further damage to the appliance, it is likely that in the event of a breakdown, you will be denied repair under warranty. Therefore, we recommend to entrust the installation to professionals.

Filters need to be periodically cleaned and cleaned - any user can handle this procedure.

Additional functionality

The options with which the machine is additionally equipped are characteristic not only of built-in models, but worth mentioning. Useful "chips" that are not in every typewriter:

1. Delay start. Thanks to this feature, you can "push" the start of washing up to 24 hours.
2. Ability to connect to hot water. Actually, if you are going to save on electricity, and the tariff for hot water allows you to spend it in unlimited quantities.
3. Separate container for cutlery and small kitchen utensils. It is much more convenient to keep the "trifle" in one place, rather than lay out on all shelves.

Reviews. Elena

Our friends gave us her for the wedding at our request. She dreamed since childhood because she hated washing, washing, cleaning. Now I have everything: a robot vacuum cleaner, a modern washer, and my main consolation is a dishwasher. Wash brilliantly! Dries even cooler. It consumes little. The ray on the floor is like a cat. Everyone is happy - the husband, the cat and me. Idyll. I advise everyone.

Now you need to choose the necessary functionality for you and dwell on the PMM that suits you in price and parameters, dimensions and additional options. The built-in dishwasher is convenient, estimate and share with others.
