Some regard dishwashers as a luxury appliance but as societies evolve, a dishwasher has become a pretty common kitchen appliance. Its main purpose is to help users save time and maintain cleanliness around the kitchen without needing too much effort. Read the article below to understand several considerations you can take note of when buying a Hotpoint dishwasher.
Standard VS. Compact-Sized Dishwashers
Firstly, you need to consider the capacity that you are looking at. An 18-inch dishwasher is typically sufficient to support up to three people. It also can accommodate up to eight place settings. For a regular 24-inch dishwasher, users can expect to accommodate up to fourteen standard place settings which are sufficient for a large household.
Built-In, Drawer, Portable, or Countertop Dishwashers
The type of dishwasher that you need depends on whether you are installing the appliance at home or at a rental unit. The size of your household also matters as each dishwasher model differs in features and benefits. The most economical type is a countertop dishwasher and various portable models. A countertop dishwasher is the smallest so it is not recommended for large households. However, for rental units with space constraints, a countertop model is the best option. When it comes to pricing, built-in, drawer, and portable dishwashers are priced according to their features and style. If you can forgo these factors, then economical models are adequate.
Energy-Saving Options
A dishwasher that comes with the Energy Star label is certified as an energy-efficient appliance. This can help you save on utility costs each month as compared to other models with no Energy Star certification. However, there is also an increasing number of other energy-saving models that do not come with the Energy Star label. Seek the advice of our sales personnel to learn more about these alternative models that offer low-water or quick wash features and more.
Hard Food Disposal
This feature is the priority of most users when they are considering a dishwasher model. It is important if you do not wish to rinse, scrape, or pre-wash your dishes before loading them up. The feature is pre-installed and can help get rid of food residue during the initial rinse. There are also several models that come with self-cleaning filters whereas others have filters that need to be cleaned manually. Select the option that is suitable for your household.
Washing Cycles
The most common and essential dishwashing cycles include economy, light, regular, and heavy cycles. The economy setting will air dry dishes to save on energy. Enhanced cycles that can accommodate glass, pot scrub, quick wash, and rinse will cost you more. Hence, how much you eventually need to pay depends on the type of features you are looking for.
