Product review (4 stars): Not without quirks, but an excellent choice for the money
This dishwasher is a bit basic, but for a portable nothing has gotten my dishes cleaner.

The pros
It is very compact and fits on most counters. It holds our plates which measure at 10.5".

It does an outstanding job getting dishes clean. It seems to have a reservoir to store up the water and then uses that reservoir for pressure so that it isn't reliant on the tap pressure. You don't really have to do much scraping when you put the dishes in.

The cons

It arrived with a ding in it but that doesn't seem to have affected performance.

The biggest issue is that you have to make sure the silverware basket is pushed as far in as it will go. Otherwise the basket will block the soap container from opening and your dishes will not get clean. I understand this is a compact area but I thought the design would have accommodated that better.

It takes a very long time to wash. Perhaps the reason why the dishes get so clean is that an average load can take an hour and a half. I usually load it full so I have to use the next to highest clean setting. That can take an hour and a half to two hours to finish. I personally am willing to deal with it, but if you need a fast dishwasher this isn't for you.

A very minor annoyance is that there is no steam outlet during dry mode. The dishwasher instructs you to open the door a bit when the dishwasher is finished drying to let the steam out. This is annoying but I suppose they passed the savings on to the customer by making the dishwasher cheap.

In summary, this is the best dishwasher for the money. It has a few annoyances which are probably there to cut costs and make the dishwasher more affordable. Knowing the little nuances and accepting them can make this an excellent buy.
