Who Should Buy It?

- ✓ Suitable for buyers who regularly wash delicate glasses and want dedicated basket protection.
- ✓ Useful for those who value flexible loading, automatic drying and a visible cycle-status indicator.
Compact capacity and flexible loading
The 45cm format makes this dishwasher a practical option for kitchens with limited cabinet width. Its 9-place-setting capacity is aimed at smaller loads, while the height-adjustable QuickLift upper basket can create extra room above or below, even when loaded.
Foldable tines in the lower basket provide additional loading flexibility, and the separate cutlery basket keeps smaller items organised.
Cleaning and glass protection
Seven programmes cover a useful range of everyday needs, including ECO, AUTO Sense, shorter cycles and a Machine Care programme. SatelliteClean and dual spray arms are designed to improve water coverage across both baskets, while XtraPower provides an additional cleaning option for heavily soiled dishes.
The upper basket’s SoftGrips and SoftSpikes are a notable feature for households that wash stemware or other delicate glasses. They are designed to hold items securely and help reduce the risk of scratching or breakage during a cycle.
Drying, controls and day-to-day operation
AirDry automatically opens the door after the drying phase, allowing air to circulate naturally inside the appliance. The QuickSelect touch slider and Ecometer make programme selection more straightforward, while DelayStart can be set from 1 to 24 hours.
At 44dB, the dishwasher is specified for relatively quiet operation. The two-colour Beam-on-Floor indicator provides a convenient way to see whether a programme is running or complete without opening the door.
