Product review (5 stars): Actually 1-star. Two ordered, two broke.
Update to below: [I can now attest to the longevity of the dishwasher. I ended up buying that extra dishwasher for my cousins. They used it more than myself, and soon their window began to leak, and completely soaked their countertop and floor. So, they called in to the manufacturer and let's just say they totally gave them the run around. They bought a regular portable dishwasher, and tried to hide it from me because it was a gift. Just several months after theirs leaked, ours did also. They recommended we give up on it, and not try to fix it. I kept it and put it away, I might buy some epoxy sealant to fix it later. I think it's a cool machine. I was surprised at how well it cleaned, but these things are just ridiculous to leak so soon and consistantly. If I could I would change the star to a 1, because this money could have been spent on a good dishwasher from the get-go.]

I cannot attest to the longevity of this dishwasher, but I have had one for almost a month. It makes my life easier, I didn't have to fool with anything major. I needed something quick, easy, convenient, and something that was small. I didn't want to be wasteful and have a full sized dishwasher, because I really only need a small one. This has worked perfectly. I basically use the "Rapid" cycle which is the shortest wash cycle available. I haven't had any problems with the dishes being unclean. I also believe it does not use much power if you use rapid cycle. It doesn't really heat the water up much until you select a more intense cycle. I did however put in a cast iron skillet and used the ultra-hot intense wash cycle, and that sucker came clean! I have a family member wanting one, so I am about to order a second one for them.

It seems like some dude in China built a million of these things, and then put them into circulation and closed up. I mean, they put out this crap item, EVERYONE has experienced problems with, then there is no customer support. Such a shame.
