Smart dishwashers will not only clean dirty cups, spoons and plates, but will also save your energy, time, and water and electricity. This technique is slowly starting to move from the realm of the exotic into the usual everyday things.
Today's market offers the consumer a lot of options from different price categories. Some machines are small in size and do not have extensive functionality, while others work more efficiently and can serve even the most demanding dishes. Naturally, the former are distinguished by a democratic price tag, and the latter are residents of the premium segment.
Therefore, many consumers sometimes simply do not know which dishwasher. User reviews in this case help only partly, because each user has his own requests and visions for the best options. In addition, the choice is greatly complicated by the abundance of manufacturers. And, besides the usual brands, which, as they say, are well-known, you can find a large number of models from little-known companies from the Middle Kingdom.
We will try to figure it outthis issue and designate a list of the most intelligent and generally good dishwashers. User reviews, advantages and disadvantages of models, as well as the feasibility of a purchase will be discussed in our article.
Producers
Many companies are engaged in the production of such equipment, but the backbone of trusted manufacturers has been formed for a long time. The competition here is serious, so newcomers on the pedestal are not favored, and segment leaders are fighting for each client.
If we take into account sales statistics and reviews of dishwashers, we will see that the domestic market is dominated by Bosch and Siemens. Moreover, models from these manufacturers are presented in all sectors, from budget to premium. Reviews of Bosch and Siemens dishwashers are almost all entirely flattering. Venerable manufacturers do not allow any critical shortcomings, and if delays do occur, then only with rare exceptions.
Mid-price segment
Whirlpool and Electrolux can also be noted in the mid-price segment. Both companies are well versed in such technology and can please the consumer not only with high-quality, but also with inexpensive models. Reviews about dishwashers of these brands are mostly positive and, as a rule, there are no problems with them: the defect rate is low, and service centers operate throughout Russia.
Budget segment
Kandy and Flavia feel confident in the budget segment. Italianthe pedigree of the latest brands, which marketers often like to mention, is a big question, but nevertheless, the output technique is quite decent. Reviews of dishwashers from these manufacturers are mostly good, and consumers understand that they are buying budget models and do not require much from them.
Next, we will consider several specific devices that are distinguished by their quality component, their efficiency and the price tag balanced in terms of cost to return.
Candy CDCP 8/E
This is a stand-alone machine that has been well-received by domestic consumers due to its quality build and efficient performance. In addition, the model has a more than adequate price tag and universal dimensions (width - 45 cm, height - 85 cm).
The last moment allows, albeit with a stretch, but still place the machine in a standard kitchen cabinet. That is, here we have a kind of embedding option, and not the usual “under the sink” solution. The model can accommodate 8 sets of dishes, with two cutlery trays and a pair of pull-out baskets.

Owners leave mostly positive reviews for the Flavia built-in dishwasher. Users appreciated the effectiveness of the model, a variety of modes, as well as a clear display with convenient controls.

There is also a delay timer up to 9 hours, a water sensor, a load sensor and a DuoPower mode aimed at combating “dead zones”.
Features of technology
Users have great feedback about the model and its capabilities. The equipment turned out to be small-sized, convenient, well-assembled and, most importantly, efficient in work. Of course, there are not many bells and whistles here, such as a display or full automation, but the price is clearly not conducive to such chic. The company managed to create a compromise and at the same time very high-quality model for a modest budget, which is inferior to more noble counterparts only in functionality, but not in efficiency.

The appearance of the equipment is quite presentable and versatile, so the design will suit almost any interior. The model is mainly designed to be built into a column, so it is not difficult to attach it.
The machine holds 6 full sets of dishes and handles them in seconds if the special VarioSpeedPlus function is enabled. Reviews of the Bosch built-in dishwasher are all positive.
