The information is based on publicly available descriptions from manufacturers and retailers and is summarised to give a clear and neutral picture of the products’ characteristics.
Factors to consider when buying a dishwasher
When choosing a dishwasher, there are several factors to consider – both practical and financial. Here are some of the most important considerations.
1. Capacity and size
Dishwashers come in different sizes, typically measured in place settings. A standard machine holds around 12–14 place settings and suits a family, while compact models with 6–9 place settings are suitable for smaller households or as an extra in a holiday home. Make sure to choose a size that matches your daily needs.
2. Energy rating and water consumption
Energy efficiency is important for both the environment and your electricity bill. Most modern dishwashers are energy rated from A to G, with A being the most efficient. Also check the water consumption per wash – low consumption can make a big difference over time.
3. Programme selection and flexibility
A good dishwasher offers several programmes, allowing you to choose between quick wash, intensive wash, and eco programmes. Some models have sensors that automatically adjust the amount of water and temperature according to the level of dirt, making use both easy and economical.
4. Noise level
If your dishwasher is placed in an open kitchen, the noise level is worth considering. A quiet model under 45 dB will typically be perceived as very silent and is well suited for evening use.
5. Layout and flexible baskets
Flexible baskets and adjustable shelves make it easier to adapt the machine to different types of dishes. Many newer models have cutlery drawers at the top, freeing up space in the lower basket.
6. Price and warranty
The price depends on features and energy class. Scandomestic generally offers affordable models with solid quality. Always check warranty conditions and service access so you are covered if problems arise.

Different types of dishwashers
Dishwashers come in several types to suit different kitchens and needs.
1. Freestanding dishwashers
These models can be placed anywhere with access to water and drainage. They are easy to install and move, making them ideal for rented homes or kitchens without built-in space.
2. Integrated dishwashers
Integrated models are built into the kitchen and hidden behind a front panel to match the rest of the kitchen design. They are available as fully integrated, where the control panel is on the edge of the door, or semi-integrated, where the panel is visible.
3. Slim dishwashers
With a width of around 45 cm, slim models are perfect for smaller kitchens. They typically hold 9–10 place settings but still offer many of the same features as standard models.
4. Tabletop dishwashers
Tabletop models are compact and require minimal installation. They are suitable for small households, studio flats, or holiday homes where space is limited.

Frequently asked questions
How long does a dishwasher programme take?
The duration depends on the programme type and model. A standard programme typically takes 2–3 hours, while quick programmes can complete the wash in under an hour.
Should you rinse the plates before putting them in the machine?
It is usually not necessary to rinse, but remove food residues to avoid clogging the filter. Modern machines are designed to handle lightly soiled plates.
How often should the filter be cleaned?
The filter should be cleaned about once a week, depending on use. A clean filter ensures optimal water flow and better washing results.
How do you maintain a dishwasher?
Run a cleaning programme with machine cleaner once a month, and regularly check spray arms and filters for dirt. Also keep the rubber seals clean to avoid odours.
What does the energy label mean?
The energy label shows how efficient the machine is in terms of electricity and water consumption. A model in energy class A uses the least energy and is therefore the most environmentally friendly and economical to run.
