Product review (5 stars): Researched all of the portable dishwashers and here is my results.
I was leary at first of these small portables, and was afraid that because it was inexpensive it would be a tin can with plumbing. So as you probably also did what I did. and poured through all the reviews on all the other portable dishwashers also. Some glowing reports and some really hating these machines. Well if you look closely enough at the pictures you will notice "All" the compact machines regardless of the manufacturer are the same basic design. Some cosmetic differences and that's about it. So it's down to what color you like and what door you prefer on the front. And what seller you think will take care of you the best.

I read quite a few got dented dishwashers because of poor boxing. I can tell you that this seller was very careful as it was extremely well boxed with very thick double lining and in a extra strong box. No way would this get dented in there. I also received it in two days from my order.

Others complained these little guys don't clean well. Well I can tell you that this in fact  has exactly the same components you find in a big dishwasher, Just minus a top sprayer. Has both a detergent door, and a rinse dispenser. And heat's the water and the interior is all stainless steel which if I were to buy a full size dishwasher. Stainless steel would be an expensive option. I found the pull out tray of high quality and came with very good hoses. Nothing about it seems cheap to me. And everything came out squeaky clean. It is for all intensive purposes just a miniature version of the real thing. So if it didn't clean you would have had the same problem with the big unit.

I was also happy to find that when it drains it has a pump so that was good for me because I intended to hook this up permanently to it's own faucet and down the same drain as the washer the laundry room. So you can put this lower than the drain line. I was also delighted that the water inlet is a standard size as your washer inlet. So you can use any hose from home depot. You don't need to hook it up to your sink!

As for the long wash cycle complaint's it's no longer than a full size. So set it to Cup and glass clean for a shorter cycle. Or better yet just push the off and on button and reset it to rinse mode if you feel it's taking too long. It will detect that is has soapy water and will automatically drain that. Then it will refill and start rinsing with clean. You can even open it up and take a peek whenever you like (just don't open that door so fast as to get blasted with hot water, it will turn off quickly but still has water shooting around.

So for the price this is great bargain.

I have had it for quite awhile now, and I did notice that the Dishes "DO" come out dry. This happens because the water is so hot that the dishes evaporate off the water. If you don't put a rinse agent in then you will probably have water drops. so take advantage of the rinse agent dispenser.
