I've been using a dishwasher for 12 years, its my first and still going strong. Its a Hotpoint Df31 almond colour. We usually use quick wash 50oc (Number 2) if its half full and when full or quite dirty we use number 4 65oc normal wash (no point in super wash as its same temperature. It has 6 programs, the last one's freshen up (like special guest rinse). We're thinking of getting a dishwasher for our second home, not far from first home. Its going to be a hotpoint fdl570 in graphite to match fridge/freezer which is 3 years old, Hotpoint and in graphite. I wonder how much it costs for a speed 25 wash? and a daily 60 minute wash? and a normal wash which lasts 1 hour 40minutes (approx)? plus how much it costs to run eco wash which lasts 2 hours and 20 minutes. Someone questioned me, lol and i didn't know. Thanks :D |

0.95-1.05kwh hour on the economy programme(the one the energy label is worked out on)so say 11-13p or under half that on cheap rate. Approx 0.6-0.7kwh for a quick 30-40 deg Between 10-15L of water- so 1-2 washing up bowl fulls According to Bosch to wash 12 place settings THROUGHLY by hand you use twice the power and approx 60L of water..... Bit of a no brainer id say lol ! Seamus |
