Flexible double-drawer washing
The defining feature is the pair of independent drawers, each holding six place settings. This lets you run a smaller load in one drawer instead of waiting to fill a full-size dishwasher, while different cycles can be selected for separate loads. Both drawers can also operate at the same time when required.
Six programmes are supported by Quick, Sanitise and Extra Dry modifiers. The supplied information indicates that the Quick option is intended for normally soiled crockery in under 60 minutes, while Extra Dry is particularly useful for plastic items.
Quiet, connected operation
At 42dB(A), the dishwasher is specified for quiet operation, which should make it suitable for kitchens connected to living areas. Touch controls, DelayStart and Knock-to-Pause are designed to simplify routine use.
Wi-Fi connectivity through the SmartHQ app enables remote control and notifications. This is useful for monitoring cycles, although the available product information does not detail the app’s full functionality or compatibility requirements.
Design and ownership considerations
The matte black glass finish, recessed handles and built-under format give the appliance a streamlined contemporary appearance. Flexible racking and a cutlery basket help accommodate different dish shapes and smaller items.
The E energy rating is a notable limitation for buyers focused on minimising electricity use. Overall, the strongest justification is the unusual drawer-based flexibility rather than maximum capacity or leading efficiency.
