Wisberg WBDW40CB

The Wisberg WBDW40CB has enough space for all my dishes. I divide the dishwasher very flexibly, so that I can easily make room for pans, bowls and tall glasses or bottles. I quickly have a clean load of plates thanks to the fast programs and functions. For a small load, I choose whether I only want to wash the top or bottom basket. After washing, I take my dishes out of the dishwasher well dry.

First impression The dishwasher has a sleek appearance. When I open the dishwasher, I see that there is enough space for my dishes. There are also enough programs and functions. That is nice, because I like to cook an extensive meal and have many different types of dishes. I would have preferred a touchscreen display. Now I sometimes clean the dirt between the buttons with a cloth.

Flexible layout I set the dishwasher very flexibly. I have both a cutlery basket and a cutlery drawer at the top for my cutlery. I actually always take out the cutlery basket for large meals. This gives me more space for pans, plates and oven dishes in the lower basket. I see that one side of the cutlery drawer is slightly higher than the other. Handy, because this way my higher drinking glasses also fit in the dishwasher. I also fold the cutlery drawer for my water bottles. This gives me extra space.

Quickly clean dishes When I do my dishes during the day, I am often a bit impatient. Fortunately, this dishwasher has 2 different fast programs. For really dirty dishes I use a normal program. With the handy Turbo function I can easily shorten this, so that I wash extra clean and save time.

Handy for a small load I find the half load function a handy function. I regularly do a small load at noon, because otherwise my dishes won't fit in the evening. I choose whether I want to wash my dishes in the lower or the upper basket. This is a bit less handy when I have a small load that has to be divided over the 2 baskets. For this I use a shorter program.

Dry dishes after the program After the dishwashing program, I take my dishes out of the dishwasher quite dry. The door opens automatically at the end of the program, so that my dishes dry better. Unfortunately, this function does not work with the short program. I dry my clean dishes by hand after this program.

Energy-efficient On the energy label I see that the dishwasher has energy label C. This is quite energy-efficient. That is nice, because it also saves me some money on my energy bill.

Nice little gadget, looks great and does its job.

The only thing is, the dishwasher stops too early, leaving everything soaking wet and soap residue on the dishes. We were able to exchange it for another one under warranty, which was perfectly arranged! The second one worked better, but after a few weeks, I had exactly the same problems... sigh.

I also have a Wisberg refrigerator, which is also nice and great (so far). But for a dishwasher? Just keep looking...

Nice machine and not too expensive
