This small machine actually does a great job

The residual heat from the washing cycles is used to dry the dishes, and does a good job, if you've not overloaded the racks.

It does a fantastic job on everyday loads, and the party setting is nice when you've got a bunch of glassware from a get-together to wash

Simply put, it does a great job at washing dishes

excellent product

I would recommend this product to anyone that hates doing dishes and has lack of space.

Great product, get the job done, fairly small but can be smaller

You don’t need lead-free rated brass here, since it’s a drain-out

Low water consumption and good Energy rating--both very important thing when you live on an island

This machine is amazing and for almost 1/3 less than our last one

Machine leaked out of the bottom the first time using it

I don't accumulate a lot of dishes so this machine is perfect for me

Let me start by saying that yes the machine itself is pretty large, its not intimidating

The machine is quieter than the full-size dishwashers we have owned

It's reasonably quiet (makes a somewhat relaxing water sloshing sound as it washes), seems well built and gets dishes clean

I have a large built in dishwasher, but prefer this as I dont use a lot of dishes and not bending down, having it closer to cabinets is great

Use plumbers tape on the fittings as an extra precaution against leaking)I loaded the dishwasher up with some fairly dirty dishes and placed a Cascade Platinum detergent pad in the dispenser.

Surprisingly it cleans better than any built-in dishwasher I've ever had

Overall, I would recommend this dishwasher to anyone who needs a dishwasher for one or two people, doesn't have a built-in, and has the space available near their sink.

Dishwashing edged tools is never recommended, though, so we hand wash sharp things

The PEX may be the most trouble as it should not make harsh bends.-----------I’ve been running this thing every other day or so in our two-person-and-two-cat home for almost a month and it works GREAT

The only strange thing is some people say the timer is

Our full size (24") portable dishwasher we purchased 6 years ago died on us after going downhill for a few years now

A 1/2” FPT x 1/2” (or 5/8”) barbed adapter will connect to most ridged dishwasher drain tubes or a 5/8” heater hose from an auto supply shop

A normal ridged dishwasher drain line could be used instead, but smooth is less likely to hold onto weird gunk

This dishwasher was a lifesaver for us - it fits way more than I expected it would, and it’s so quiet

Just the right size for a single person or a couple and takes up much less space than a conventional dishwasher

Just like other countertop dishwashers, it has a limited space for larger items but gets dishes as clean as a full size

Her full-size, under counter dishwasher doesn't get the dishes clean with one wash like this little number does.

It is the perfect size too for 1-2 people and I use it every night

It has a warning indicator for when you should refill the rinse aid, and the LED display is a great addition.

I think the silver looks rather similar to stainless steel and fits right in if that's your decor choice for your kitchen; the black accent at the top is a nice touch, and it allows the contrasting white LED display to show clearly

LED displays is great!

But I tried it anyway and same thing no clean dishes and the water didn’t even get hot

This leads to still dirty dishes after the machine has run

That said, it probably doesn't save me a lot of time, as the dishes that go into it are mostly-clean already.

( I always cleaned my dishes off and rinsed them before I loaded the dishwasher and kept it clean

Very quiet operation, except for the expelled dirty water being drained into the sink which is to be expected

Attach it between the hot water supply valve and the faucet line as instructed

I had a plumber permanently install it under the counter directly into the hot water line and

If you run it with hot water from the tap the timer is almost right

Horrible item, motor was unsecured and clips broken as soon as it arrived, leaked water everywhere.

Gorgeous exterior and really gorgeous interior

The hinges are tight, the plastic pieces are nice, and the all stainless interior is much nicer than you would expect for this price

I think 4 stars is a bit too harsh, but 5 stars is giving it a little bit more credit when I have a slight preference for the DS-2201S.Regardless, if you're looking for a countertop dishwasher, you won't go wrong with this machine.

It is a bit heavier and bulkier than we would have thought

The sound of water freaked me out a bit at first, but honestly, if you tape your threads and connect things well, it does not leak
