Danby DDW396 22 in. Portable Dishwasher

Pros: Low water usage. Spotless dishes. Automatic dispensers. Detergent lasts forever. Quieter than a microwave.
Cons: Multiple loads to do all dishes. I hear they don't last long as other dishwashers

It was my turn to do dishes. I really HATE washing dishes. Especially living with 2 roommates they tend to pile up quick. Just my luck, every dish in the house was dirty. I remembered seeing a tiny dishwasher at Wal-Mart, and without a second thought, I ...

Pros: NOT HAVING TO DO THE DISHES. Inexpensive. Easy to use.
Cons: Nothing really. IT DOES THE DISHES VERY WELL, SO THAT I DON'T HAVE TO!

I did a lot of research on portable dishwashers. I didn't even know countertop models existed - what a great idea! Anyhow, long story short I decided upon this model, bought it at walmart.com for $168 including shipping, and it's been wonderful ever ...

Pros: Fits on a counter, cleans well, minimal cost, uses little water
Cons: Takes up counter space, little loud

Sure, washing dishes is not that difficult. However, finding the time is another story. Also, I am clean-freak on the molecular level. Thus, my reasoning for spending money on what some of my friends consider a non-vital appliance. I've owned this ...

Pros: Saves a man from performing domestic labor. EXTREMELY Reliable.
Cons: Thermonuclear containment gear required to extract flatware upon cycle completion.

My wife is a United States Marine. When she was deployed to Iraq in January of 2003, I was involuntarily thrust back into a life of cleaning for myself. Having grown accustomed to a military cleaning routine, the only places I found myself lacking were ...

Pros: Works great, looks good, quiet, GETS THE JOB DONE SO I DON'T HAVE TO!
Cons: Don't misuse it with laundry soap -- use dish powder and avoid leaks!

Only AFTER a house full of relatives left town, post-summer-visit, did it occur to me to get a dishwasher for my pre WW2 house. There just isn't enough space for a conventional portable (that you wheel around the floor), so I started looking for the ...

Pros: Nice cleaning action, stainless interior, pretty light for its size
Cons: Window in door not really necessary, remember to tighten inlet and outlet hoses

Having read the previous reviews on Epinions, I decided that a countertop dishwasher would be perfect for me, too. I ordered mine from Etronics and five days later the box arrived and I unpacked it to find the most wonderful appliance I have yet ...

Pros: Takes up little space, runs quietly, saves me from having to do dirty dishes!
Cons: Hose hanger on back of unit is not practical and not necessary.

So far I have been very pleased with my dishwasher. It really does clean dishes well. It runs quietly and cannot be heard outside of the kitchen. The faucet adapter works fine -- you just screw it onto your existing faucet and then hook the ...

Pros: Great price, quiet, small, holds lots of dishes, easy hookup, attractive, very convenient!
Cons: Few dishes may come out dirty; no beep to alert you at the end.

I got this dishwasher a couple of months ago and I love it! It's SO nice not to hand-wash a lot of dishes now, especially with my dry, chapped, winter-time hands. I just HATE washing dishes and couldn't stand it anymore - especially when I discovered ...

Pros: Makes quick work of the dishes - and its nice to get that Squeeky clean.
Cons: Standard config is hard to load dishes window option unit is not worth the money

Update - April 2008: We have replaced the door twice now. The first replacement lasted for quite a while, but it finally started leaking at the window. I had ordered a "spare" replacement door last time because they were so inexpensive, and this time I ...

Pros: Small, powerful as a full-size unit, stainless steel interior, low water consumption
Cons: Noisy compared to installed full-size models; hose doesn't really store easily when not in use.

That's the question I would always get when I had guests over at my home. I lived in a very small space and desperately wanted a dishwasher, but I couldn't afford to lose any cabinet space and my countertop space was limited, so I started looking into ...

Pros: Quiet, saves water/energy, cleans well, reasonably priced, good customer service.
Cons: instruction manual not very clear sometimes regarding certain issues, rinse agent dispenser not working (?)

I bought my Danby dishwasher back in April of 2005. It has been a great appliance so far! I use it approximately 2 or 3 times a week. With clever and careful placement, you can actually wash saucepans and skillets in the dishwasher, too. The ...

Pros: GREAT LITTLE DISHWASHER
Cons: A little hard to set up; larger than expected

I got the Danby countertop dishwasher last week and so far it has worked great! I am very happy b/c I live in a very old style apartment and I was afraid something would not work, water pressure, sink adapter, whatever. However, it all works great so ...

Pros: Relevant Cycle Options, Functional Design, Powerful cleaning, Sanitizing Mode
Cons: Length of hookup cords (power and water), sticky guide rollers.

get one of these in your kitchen! I had minimal expectations for a compact dishwasher, but I was really impressed by the effectiveness and available options on this unit. My mother's very expensive dishwasher doesn't get her dishes as clean, as ...

Pros: - Cleans well - Saves water, detergent and space
Cons: - Timer gets stuck - durability issues - Can't have too many food particles

I've had my Danby for under a year. It does a good job of cleaning the dishes, surprisingly even on cooked on pasta. However it doesn't clean as well when there are are many food particles in the wash. This is because there is only one spray arm ...

Pros: Great cleaning job, low water/detergent use
Cons: Durability, hoses laying around on counter

I'm on my 3rd Danby countertop dishwasher. I love the dishwasher when it works, but the durability isn't that great. On the positive side, the dishwasher does a great job cleaning dishes. I never really have to pre-rinse dishes. What's ...
