So, what’s the answer? A slimline dishwasher.
Designed to work in the same way as a regular dishwasher - but with a narrower front profile - slimline dishwashers are able to squeeze into smaller spaces whilst still saving you the hassle of manually washing your dishes.
How narrow are slimline washers you ask? Although individual models do differ, you’ll find that the average slimline dishwasher is around 45 cm wide. When you compare this to standard dishwashers, which are on average around 60 cm wide, you can see what a space-saving miracle slimline washers can be!
Once you start shopping around for a slimline dishwasher, you’ll find that there are a number of distinct types available. These include:
- Freestanding slimline dishwashers - these are designed to ‘stand alone’ and can be placed anywhere with a level floor and appropriate water and power connections.
- Built in slimline dishwashers - these are designed to be slotted into a fitted kitchen. Fully built in models can have a panel attached to the front so that, when closed, they look exactly like the rest of your kitchen units. Semi built in models feature a standard dishwasher face, and therefore don’t blend in to the same extent as fully built in versions.
If that’s less of a concern, and are looking for a dishwasher that can simply be located under a counter or in a corner, go for a freestanding slimline dishwasher.
And now to address the elephant in the room….
Can slimline dishwashers hold enough pots, pans, plates and cutlery? This is a common question we encounter, but it’s less of a concern than many people realise.
If you browse our slimline dishwasher collection here at Comet, you’ll see that many models can hold up to 10 place settings. That’s approximately 100 items! For many people, this is plenty of capacity.
With that out the way, it’s time to address another common misconception about slimline dishwashers - features (or the supposed lack thereof).
Just because they are smaller than their standard counterparts, doesn’t mean slimline dishwashers have fewer features. Among the features you’ll typically find on slimline dishwashers are; energy-saving settings, intensive wash features, half load options, baby cycles and more.
