@Robin first as I see you right below me.
Oh! What is that expression? “It’s the best thing since sliced bread”! It’s absolutely brilliant & I love it: makes my life SO much easier; gotten used to reaching up to fill the tank now & it’s a bit of extra exercise! Presumably your son would be taller than me at 155cm & shorter arms, orientals have shorter arms than westerners so, he might not have to stretch up so much?
Prices have fallen now: the cheaper ones on Amazon were all around the £209 mark, with slightly bigger/more bells & whistles about the £300 mark; now you can get them for less than £200 approx. about the £169-£189 mark.
The dishes come out very clean but, there are different settings of washes from everyday quick cycle, which I use now as my dishes aren’t sitting around getting dried on, to longer hotter temp. cycles for the heavier, dirtier, dried on stuff! I’ve only had one soup bowl with 2 scoops of ice cream in it come out with some ice cream still on it in the quick cycle so, that’s really good as I don’t rinse my dishes before putting them in: I never saw the point of that; I just put mine in the dishwasher as soon as I finish eating & set it to wash when it’s full! Sometimes in can be twice in a day & sometimes 2 or 3 days as the racks are of fixed sizes: just depends on what you’re washing & how you fit them in; plates take up less space than soup & pasta bowls for instance.
