"My 20 year old dishwasher that I have just replaced with the new Beko machine actually dried much better than this replacement. I actually have to dry many items in the "old fashioned" method with a tea towel irregardless of how long I let them sit in the machine. I have done as the handbook suggested and left the door open to assist with drying, but cannot say it helps. I would recommend the Beko but with this reservation."

"This replaces my 19 year old machine to go in a new kitchen. It is so much lighter than the old machine and easy to put in place. It is also much quieter too and looks stylish as well. Very pleased with it so far."

"The dishwasher has been a life saver.
I get to spend more time with my little boy. I just wish I had thought about getting a dishwasher when I had all those baby bottles to wash!
We found it very easy to set it up
It came with a little starter pack of 2 finish tablets and rinse aid. If you are like me I hadn't even thought about it!
First of all we had to do a dip test to test the hardness of the water so we could set up the machine correctly to use the salt. This took all of a couple minutes to complete this section of preperation.
It's really easy to locate where the salt goes and makes it really easy to put salt in the reservoir with a little funnel.
Very easy to add detergents. Some times I find it is a bit tricky to get the latch to close. Where as the rinse aid reservoir is easy to open and close.
In the booklet it has a diagram of how to load the dishwasher. This dishwasher can hold upto12 place settings.
It has adjustable height on the upper baskets. It also has side racks whichor can be used when on the lower setting glasses and cups.
On the bottom basket it has collapsible tines for the bulkier items. Which I found very usefull as we are small family.
The cutlery basket I found really good as you can move it anywhere in the front of the dishwasher so if you had more plates you move it too the bowl stacking side and vise versa. Or just sit in the middle.
It has a very easy operation system. Which I think would suit all ages.
There is a button for half a load if you don't have much to wash which saves you money and water by not using so much energy.
There are 2 indicators on the dish washer for salt and rinse aid. These are on very good display.
It has all details on how to clean filters and impellers as well as the interior of the machine in the manual.
The manual is very clear on how to set up, use and maintain this product.
I would very much highly recommended to friends and family.
This is plenty big enough for my husband, myself and little boy. With lots of growing room for the family when we decide to have more children. Or just perfect for the family gatherings.
The only thing that would dislike about this product is that there is no child lock on the machine to stop little hands from fiddling around with buttons. Which has no effect on how great the machine is. More me controlling my strong minded toddler. "

"This is a basic efficient machine, the front panel has a program selector with 5 different programmes that offer a nice range of temperature and duration of the washing programmes.
It has a rise aid indicator, a salt indicator, a half load button that can be used when the machine is not full and you need to run it and it will allow you to save water and energy. The front panel has a start/stop button that can be used as a cancel button to if you need to stop a programme. Pressing this button during 3 seconds, it will stop the programme and it will empty the water out of the dishwasher.
There are still 4 indicators that shows the progress of the washing programme.
I was impressed with how spacious the inside of the machine was. It has a lot of space and very flexible. You can alter the height of the top tray, it has 2 different positions and the plate rack in the bottom tray can be laid down in order to offer flexibility. The cutlery basket can be moved in different positions to offer additional flexibility.
The maintenance of the machine is quite easy to be done, you need to clean the filters on a regular basis and the rotor blades can be removed to be cleaned.
I found very innovative the water softening system.
Positive points: Very flexible, spacious, nice range of programmes, cost saving fixtures, water softening system, efficiency.
I hope you find this review helpful."

"The DFN05R10W Standard Dishwasher from Beko is a sturdy robust appliance, it fits nicely into our kitchen and had been a welcome addition!
Having never used a dishwasher before I'm unable to compare it's performance, I can however say I've been impressed with it's abilities.
I've tested the dishwasher with every day dirty dishes from porridge bowls to roast dinner dishes and they always come out sparkling. With minimal effort from me. What's not to love?
You can also pop silicone baby dishes and bibs in there, these came out looking like new, they previously had staining from sauces that wouldn't wash off.
Setting up the dishwasher was easy, we had to drill a hole into the bottom of under sink unit in order to feed the fittings through. This was simple to do with the correct drill piece. Connecting the dishwasher to the cold water outlet and drain pipe was also easy. We had it set up and running within 10 minutes.
The dishwasher came with everything you need to get started, from a funnel for pouring in the salt to a sample pack of the salt, rinse aid and tablets needed to run the machine.
With the ability to hold up to 12 place settings we've found it to be more than enough for our family of 3 with plenty of space if we were to add to our family.
Overall I've found the dishwasher to be easy to use, it's not complicated at all and it works perfectly.
I'm no longer spending my morning washing dishes whilst a toddler hangs off of my leg. Instead we load the dishwasher together and have more time to play! "
