Somehow the words "cheapest dishwasher on the market" don't fill me with confidence, and reviews on Reevoo seem to indicate reliability problems in the longer term, but you can't argue with the price for a short term solution, of if you're fitting a kitchen to sell your house!

I've bought a 400 quid dishwasher and a 150 one in the past. Both didn't make it to three years so not sure it's worth spending the extra

What make was the £400 one? Looking at paying £600 to get 5 year warranty but wondering if cheaper in long run to buy one of these even if it only lasts 2-3 years
This Grundig is what I would go for. Okay, it is about twice the price of the rebadged currys essentials, but at least you know fir sure that you will have a dishwasher for the next 5 years (comes with free 5 year Warranty). Can also recommend Bosch, which is what I have. But the Grundig seems better value for money.

It was a Bosch.
I don't see how this can be rubbish at cleaning dishes? All it does is heat water and then spray it.
Even the premium German brands are made in Poland along side the cheap unbranded.
It's always the pump that goes and it's over 100 quid for a new one to be fitted.
It maybe wasteful, but 50 quid a year for a dishwasher is worth it for me.
Can you get a 5 year guarantee for one costing 250?

Bought one of these to replace a broken dishwasher in a property I rent out and was accused of being a slum landlord! One year on it is still working fine.

I had the slimline version of this. Absolute rubbish - lasted approx 3 months (didn't clean the dishes properly in that time) then it simply gave up the ghost. Complete garbage.

We've had this for about 6 months and I personally wouldn't recommend it.
The place settings on the trays are really poor making stacking plates etc difficult to do effectively.
Also, for some reason, it's very easy for items to drop below the bottom shelf and jam the water-jet. This leads to it making a noise similar to if somekind of metal eating banshee were trapped inside.
I paid the same price, so cheap it definitely is, but I think I would pay a bit more next time.

The unbranded dishwasher which came with our house has just had its 25th birthday. When it finally packs up where do i get another which will last as long (though I probably won't)?

Similar thing here, in a previous house the fitted dishwasher lasted the entire ten years I lived there and never had any problems.

Had two bosch dishwashers in my life, each lasted around ten years of daily use. Middle of the range ones.

I like Bosch stuff but the trouble with most of their dishwashers is that they have plastic inners rather than stainless steel. I'm not aware of any other manufacturer which does that. I recently bought a £199 BEKO for my son's house and that's all stainless. For most white goods BEKO is the best choice of the budget brands so I hope this one will prove so too.

I recommend everyone buy the cheapest Dryers and Washers they can get that are energy efficient. I spent £400ish on a Samsung Washing Machine and it broke in a year and they wouldn’t replace it. My new Bush one for £140 carries more weight and cleans every bit as good, plus if it breaks I won’t care too much for that price.
The some with my Dishwasher, they seem to break all the time, usually it’s the pump and it costs over a hundred to get fixed... well I bought a cheap one and it’s listed 2 years and works fine.

I have just replaced my beko dishwasher which lasted for four years with another beko dishwasher. We were happy with it and I hope we are happy with the new one. I looked at buying a super cheap one which included a Kenwood model priced at £209 but when I looked at it, it felt flimsy. At least this Beko one feels solid.
It is always hard to know what to do when it comes to purchasing an expensive model that could pack in or a cheap one that can be replaced easily if it does pack in.
