These little machines are awesome. They are actually more efficient than large, built in DW’s- they cycles are less than half as long. Yet they clean as well, if not better. Great review!
I bought a Magic Chef counter top a year ago. The cycles are longer - 1 hr 50 minutes for regular. It cleans better than my old fullsize GE. It's perfect for two people but more would be tough. It has 6 cycles one is pot scrubber and it works great. Sometime a do a load of sauce pans with this. You have to have counter space that I don', so it sits on top of my old portable dishwasher. It creates it's own heat. It works as well on the cold water tap. It's very quiet.
Love it. Grew up in a home with a dishwasher but mom only let us use it on thanksgiving from what I remember. Always hated Hand washing as an adult and now that I'm in a smaller apartment this looks like a nice option :)
+Mike B I've been very satisfied with it. 2 years old now and still working great. You just have to understand large pans and lots of dishes won't fit in it. So I use it almost daily. Thanks for watching Mike.
Thank you so much for doing the video, I had no idea how it connected and drained and this made it all so clear,and your tips are useful. My daughter is now going to get such a dishwasher for her caravan.
Very nice demonstration. I'm in the process of deciding if I want to purchase a full dishwasher or a countertop. The questions that I had (one being how to load the dishes in the machine), were answered by your demonstration. I also liked your idea of leaving the nozzle in the sink after use. I think I'm now convinced that the countertop is the better choice for me. Again, well done.
Thanks - great video! Just acquired one of these from a friend who doesn't need it anymore. Appreciate the instructions - and glad to hear it's a good model :)
Actually it isn't all that loud, since its on a counter and not built into cabinets it is a bit more noisy than a regular size built in model. It does a great job and very happy with it. The noise level really has never been a big issue.
There is a model of Cnegliano (can't remember the exact number), which looks exactly the same! So you might be right about the single origin of the machines ...
It seems many models look very similar if not exactly the same. Leads me to believe there is only a couple companies that make these. As long as the dishes keep coming out clean I'm a happy camper none the less. Thanks for the comment and Watching!
I have seen some dishwashers that have a place you can add salt....the only purpose of this is to soften the water. If you have soft water already you would not use this feature. If you have hard water instructions should be provided to add the salt to the machine. Hope this helps.
You can use any detergent made for dishwashers liquid or powder. You can not use regular dishwashing detergent as it will suds too much. Also you shouldn’t use the “tabs” as they are made for full size dishwashers and is to much soap for these machines. Hope this helps.
I have that exact same round pan, kinda like when u see your same kitchen wallpaper, on a tv situation comedy kitchen.. which I have.. a show called Angie from the 1970's..
so... the water that comes out during the washing is dirty correct? sometimes there are food pieces on dirty dishes, how do you make sure its not stuck in there?
+123timetosleep Actually there is a filter at the bottom of the unit that you easily lift out and clean any food particles or debris if any. Hope that helps with your question.
Yes you leave water on until the unit turns off then turn the water off. Make sure as I show in the video to push the red button to release the water pressure before you disconnect the hose or you'll get a shower ;)
+Tammy Cooper Still working great. I'd check amazon and ebay could be another brand put all look and work about the same. Again make sure you measure your space to make sure you have a fit. Thanks for watching.
about 3 feet, so you can use like a microwave cart if you're not wanting the unit on a countertop and roll it up near the sink, plenty of hose to reach.
Since it's on the counter top and not built into the cabinets, it is louder than a built in Dish Washer. However I don't find the noise level horrible or unbearable by any means. When I'm in my living room (2 rooms away from the Kitchen) I can barely hear running.
+MiamiCOIndiana Holy cow! 200 bucks for an adapter??? I believe they sell for about 15 bucks on Best Buy, etc....unless you're talking an adapter from the Flux capacitor.
rinse aid on this unit is located on the back panel inside the unit. The packs are made for regular size dishwashers so they won't work on these compact smaller units. Hope this helps.

+MiamiCOIndiana very happy, my new dishwasher will be delivered Tuesday :)
great Mike let me know how you like it

+Tanya Johnson Thanks for the nice comment. I'm sure you'll be pleased with the countertop one.
A MILLION THANKS, NEED 1 of these but all other reviews leave so much out. u cover it all, keep posting.
Thanks Tim
Thanks - great video! Just acquired one of these from a friend who doesn't need it anymore. Appreciate the instructions - and glad to hear it's a good model :)
you're welcome mine still working like a charm
great video. wasn't aware of this SANI thing. will be useful in the future to know this.
most will have this feature but I have seen a few that do not. Thanks for watching!
I had the Home Electronics (DW44004) branded version of this dishwasher, for the money it's a great machine!
Hello Miami,
thanks for the video! It seems to me that it makes quite a noise. Is that right? Thanks again, Pete

We're dose the rins aid go in that machine
There is a place in the back of the dishwasher to add rinse aid it automatically dispenses on last cycle of the wash. Hope this helps.
hi these dishwashers use salt and put inwhichthe part thanks..
I have seen some dishwashers that have a place you can add salt....the only purpose of this is to soften the water. If you have soft water already you would not use this feature. If you have hard water instructions should be provided to add the salt to the machine. Hope this helps.
How the dishwasher works without salt I have the same, I don't know what detergent to use
You can use any detergent made for dishwashers liquid or powder. You can not use regular dishwashing detergent as it will suds too much. Also you shouldn’t use the “tabs” as they are made for full size dishwashers and is to much soap for these machines. Hope this helps.
@@MiamiCOIndiana I can use normal dishwashing detergent
I have that exact same round pan, kinda like when u see your same kitchen wallpaper, on a tv situation comedy kitchen.. which I have.. a show called Angie from the 1970's..
my pan is all burnt up just like that one..
wait, he stole my pan.. or we gave him some food on it, and he never returned it..
Moving to tiny closet NYC. Wash dishes before wash. Ha ha. Hope it's not too loud.
so... the water that comes out during the washing is dirty correct? sometimes there are food pieces on dirty dishes, how do you make sure its not stuck in there?
+123timetosleep Actually there is a filter at the bottom of the unit that you easily lift out and clean any food particles or debris if any. Hope that helps with your question.
definitely!! thank you so much!
Great review! Super helpfull! Thanks!
Thanks for watching and the kind words
how much water is being used. I've been told a dishwasher uses 1gallon of water. thx
It's actually 1 gallon on short cycle and around 2 gallons on regular cycle on this model.
Mine didn't fit under the countertop, but a friend and I decided to use my microwave cart for it to sit on and it works fine.
nice review i think ill get this for me mom. Thanks
I really think you're mom will be very pleased with it. Thanks for watching.
im in me mums car
Does it need hot water or does it heat its own water? thanks!
It has a built in heater and heats the water.
I can't imagine what this thing costs. Igloo wants over $300 for a freaking beer cooler!
Look for sales online I've seen them in the $200 - $250 range.
i need the manual plz where can i find it
Where can I buy the adapter and the drain pipe to connect the dishwasher to the sink?
Search for: "Frigidaire 5304461795 Hose Connector Unit"
Do you still have this its been 4yrs how did it hold up ...
Yes I still have this and it has held up great use 3 or 4 times weekly so far no issues at all.
MiamiCOIndiana kool.
This will help with sanitation... Lol.... So it will take the garbage out too??? Or I guess you meant sanitizing?? : ) blooper......
How long should I keep the taps on when start the dishwasher
Turn your tap on hot until you have the hottest water possible (around 30 seconds or so) then hook up and start dish washer. Hope this helps.
MiamiCOIndiana ok thanks do I leave the water on till finish
Yes you leave water on until the unit turns off then turn the water off. Make sure as I show in the video to push the red button to release the water pressure before you disconnect the hose or you'll get a shower ;)
OK thanks Ima get one
Does it work good and ware do I get one
+Tammy Cooper Still working great. I'd check amazon and ebay could be another brand put all look and work about the same. Again make sure you measure your space to make sure you have a fit. Thanks for watching.
How long are the hoses?
about 3 feet, so you can use like a microwave cart if you're not wanting the unit on a countertop and roll it up near the sink, plenty of hose to reach.
Where can i get the faucet adapter?
brittany rolston That adapter comes with the unit. If you don't have one or it broke you should be able to order a new one from the manufacturer.
is it really loud?
Since it's on the counter top and not built into the cabinets, it is louder than a built in Dish Washer. However I don't find the noise level horrible or unbearable by any means. When I'm in my living room (2 rooms away from the Kitchen) I can barely hear running.
nice
How much does it cost?
James Dodd Around $250 is normal price for this unit... I have seen them on sale for around $200.
+MiamiCOIndiana Holy cow! 200 bucks for an adapter??? I believe they sell for about 15 bucks on Best Buy, etc....unless you're talking an adapter from the Flux capacitor.
will it work off grid
yes if you do yur math watts bat bank water pump ect old commit but yes
my dishwasher ecotronic FDW1010
2Days dishes ? you have there 2 plates :D ... man I alone use 6plates in 2 days 3 people you have 9plates and 3 bowls :) so no :D
i dont like the idea of leaving my water on for 50 minutes..
+Derp Durp Never had an issue with it. Just like a washing machine running about the same time frame.
Where does the rinse aid go and can you use dishwasher packs instead of liquid soap?
rinse aid on this unit is located on the back panel inside the unit. The packs are made for regular size dishwashers so they won't work on these compact smaller units. Hope this helps.
Where does the dirty water, grease and grime from the dirty dishes go? Or drain off to?
@@or6144 Goes down your sink drain just like a regular built in dishwasher dispenses dirty water down the drain.
