EdgeStar 6 Place Setting Countertop Portable Dishwasher - Silver



EdgeStar dishwasher is great!
I have had an EdgeStar dishwasher for around 3.5 years now and I decided it was about time I wrote a review. Why? Because in all this time, this appliance has never given me any trouble and it still works perfectly. I honestly expected to have it for a short time as it's a compact appliance. I did not have much faith in it.

But after this long, I have to say it did surprise me. It still washes dishes quite perfectly. It works better when I remember to put the dry-in liquid in the back. And while it's true that I kind of clean them well before putting them in, it's probably mostly because I am a little OCD. So I haven't tried putting super dirty dishes yet and can't testify on that.

I must say it did work funny once, a couple of years ago, if I remember correctly the water didn't come down. But somehow it corrected itself (!) and this never happened again. Another thing is that you can't fit that much in, so if you have a family of 4-6 it's probably on the small...

Great dish washer
I have used this dish washer several times since purchasing it. The results have been excellent . I live by myself, so I do not have many dishes at a time. I bought the washer after my full size one broke down. This washer gets my dishes very clean, it is also quieter than my old washer. It uses very little water, and so far it has cleaned everything I have put in it. Excellent appliance.

Perfect for a small family
I received this counter-top dishwasher for Christmas, on the same day I was to prepare a standing rib roast, 2 whole chickens, and country style ribs and all the fixings for 10 people. Needless to say, I put this dishwasher through its paces that night. Yes, I had to reload several times, but for once I could entertain while my dishes were being done. I also have to admit I shoved several dishes into the EdgeStar 6 which wasn't necessarily "recommended" by the manufacturer, but they came out sparkling.

I had a little issue with cloudy residue on my dishes which was easily remedied by cutting down my detergent in half (which makes sense, considering the machine itself is half the size of a conventional dishwasher). I had purchased a tub of Cascade complete pacs and found that if I cut them in half and saved the other half for the next washing, the dishes turned out perfectly.

On one occasion, my dishwasher leaked from behind at the hose connection. Now, before...
