I had a Danby for a while and it actually worked very well. Once you get used to the limited space, you can find unique ways to get a pretty good load in them. |

Dishpan in left side of bowl. Rinsing in running water on right side. Works even with a double-bowl sink. Didn't you once say money was tight? Since you mentioned a full-sized DW, you may want to consider place-settings for 8 or 12. Then you can wait until the DW fills up and THEN run it, full. Even if it takes a few days to achieve that status. Saves water, saves time, saves energy, saves money and no inital outlay! (ducks and runs) CLICK HERE TO GO TO toggleswitch's LINK |

We used to have a Bosch countertop dishwasher. I had to use it again last year when our regular AEG broke down and have to say that I was very pleased with its performance - washed fast and held a day worth of dishes for a family of three persons. Here are the pictures (first pics is our new Siemens, then the old AEG and then the Bosch countertop): CLICK HERE TO GO TO logixx's LINK |

Hi, when we moved into a property with a smaller kitchen we stored our large dishwasher and bought a small zannussi worktop one and it was excellent, we used it 3 times a day ie one load for pans one for main dishes etc and we found it washed better than our full size dishwasher and the average wash time was shorter aswell i would reccomend one if space is of a premium. we actually had ours built in under the kitchen sink we took out the shelf and plumbed it in there and it just fitted snug

There appears to be an equal and opposite reaction! Sploder, the solution to your problem could be a new Bosch dishwasher--if you weren't renting. My sister just bought one and it apparently has a way to shut off one of the wash arms so you can do a small load on one rack only. I don't know what the water savings would be with this method but it has made me curious. |

I bought a used danby machine from CL a while back - looks like the edgestar. We have it here at the office, on the floor under the sink. Its hooked to a cold water supply and heats the water on its own with the SaniWash feature. I've been VERY impressed with it - the water gets hot enough to burn your fingers if you try and take the dishes out right after the cycle. Sometimes we have problems with residue if i have cream-of-wheat, but thats like cement to begin with. I have another one I picked up and repaired a while ago on CL now for sale. I would reccomend this one over the Haier models - it seems much more robust, just like a regular model but scaled down. CLICK HERE TO GO TO mistereric's LINK on New York Craigslist |
