Me siento bastante decepcionado con esta compra, tuve que hacer la devolución al siguiente día que me llegó. Venia bien empacada, la abrí, contenía todo lo que venía descrito en el site. Pero cuando la abrí para sacar las cosas, mi primer sorpresa, una pieza rota de rack para cubiertos, no le di importancia, ya que era una pieza pequeña. Después me dispuse a probarla, hice las conexiones de acuerdo al instructivo, metí la cantidad de platos y puse la cantidad de jabón indicados. Cuando la inicie, tardaba 2 horas en lavar esta primer carga, así que la deje y regrese 40 minutos después a ver que estaba pasando, SORPRESA, la mesa donde la puse estaba empapada, chorreando el agua por la puerta delantera, había entre agua y espuma en la mesa y en el piso, así que solo le puse unas toallitas para secar y continuar con el proceso, pensé que era por ser nueva. Después de las 2 horas me hizo un pitido pero varias veces, ya no me gusto la situación, baje a revisar y tenia un error E3… ese error E3 significa que esta dañado un tema del termostato y no calienta el agua para cerrar el ciclo, lo que dice el instructivo es que llame directamente a un reparador. La desconecte, volví a probar, ya no salió el error en la segunda ocasión, después, en una tercer carga probé con los vasos, definitivamente ahí fue el punto donde decidí devolverla, toda la base estaba muy mojada, se salía el agua por varias partes y al final del ciclo, de nuevo, error E3. Una pésima experiencia, no la recomiendo definitivamente, más por que no funciono, fue porque en realidad estaba muy emocionado de comprarla y tenerla pero al final, falló de todo tipo. Lástima, me quedé con un muy mal sabor de boca.

Al igual que otros, el segundo día me mostro el error E3, no me lavo los trastes ni los seco y fue todo un desastre. Días después me volvió a mostrar el error E3 con el mismo problema dejando jabón y agua en el interior y esta vez había agua afuera. La termine regresando a la semana.
Las veces que funciono bien (no mostro el error) una vez no me seco los trastes y las demás estuvo OK.

El paquete llegó en tiempo y forma. El único problema que tuve fue al inicio y fue lo siguiente, la hélice de abajo se quedaba atorada con una parte de la canastilla. Si ponía la lavavajillas a funcionar sin carga, no se atoraba la hélice. Pero ya que ponía una carga de platos tenía ese problema. Supongo que en la fábrica prueban las lavavajillas sin carga. La verdad es que lo solucioné por mi propia cuenta porque no me parecía lo suficientemente importante como para hacer un reclamo. Y una vez que arreglé ese detalle la lavavajillas ha funcionado perfecto.
Update – llevo ya casi 1 año con la lavavajillas, sigue funcionando perfecto y ha sido de mis mejores compras. He visto que algunas personas dicen que tienen fugas de agua, posiblemente esas fugas son por la nivelación, la maquina debe estar bien nivelada y sin inclinaciones. Y se debe usar jabón para lavavajillas, no jabón regular lavatrastes. El jabón para lavavajillas NO HACE ESPUMA o hace muy poca espuma.

ME GUSTÓ! No tengo mucho espacio y buscaba algo pequeño y lindo…y la encontré! Es hermosa!
La verdad fue un capricho y estoy feliz aunque debo decir que no es tan útil como esperaba, es pequeña (como la buscaba) pero justamente por eso tiene poca capacidad, hay que practicar mucho la acomodada de los trastes para permitir que todos se laven correctamente, obvio si cocinas no puedes meter ollas y sartenes. Creo que es perfecta para máximo dos personas que sólo recalientan alimentos.
Aún así estoy feliz con ella 🙈

Solicité reembolso y pedí otro modelo,no podría opinar

Everything still working as it’s supposed to but my dish rack is now rusting and falling apart. I never did anything to it, never bent it, never cut into the plastic wrap around it..nothing…but it’s rusting and falling apart. I need a new one and I hope I can get one otherwise I have a large paperweight on my hands.

06/30/2021 UPDATE
It’s been almost 4 months since I’ve owned this and I have never been happier. I use this dishwasher at least twice a day every single day. I use powder detergent from the big box store with a blue logo and I use their store brand. It’s the best stuff ever and very inexpensive to buy. I have changed one thing, I no longer use the magnet to keep the door ajar to dry the interior and dishes. The reason being is that I didn’t think about keeping the seal moist and not letting it dry out. It’s imperative the seal stays supple so it work properly. Also I buy a dishwasher cleaner from Amazon so it will help eliminate hard water deposits in the machine. I buy a little bag, about $7, and it lasts me several uses since I use such a small amount whereas 1 bag is normal for a normal size dishwasher. Don’t listen to the naysayers and negative reviews. Yes it’s small…it’s a small dishwasher..don’t expect to fill it to the brim and get everything sparkling clean. You have to arrange everything to make sure the jet spray hits everything. I have found out one thing, I was pouring water in the machine yesterday, got the beeps and realized that I didn’t turn the machine on first. So..it’s good to know it will let me know it’s full of water without it being turned on…good to know. Again, best purchase I’ve made and I highly recommend it.
Next to my portable washing machine I bought a few months ago, this is my new love. I cannot say enough good things about it. I call her Rosey after the Jetson’s robot. She’s sleek, sexy and cleans. She didn’t come cheap though that’s for sure.
********************************
When I unpacked Rosey, I noticed some rusty looking stuff in the bag on the side of the machine towards the bottom back. When I opened the plastic wrap there was a hint of rust smell. This worries me just a bit. I’m sure most of everything in Rosey is plastic so I’m curious as to what is metal and rusts especially in a dishwasher. She did have some moisture and water droplets in it and I knew they tested it beforehand, I just thought they might have let it dry first before tightly packing it up to ship. I wonder how long it stayed wrapped with water in it before I got it. As I said this worries me and I hope I won’t have problems in the future. I did buy the extra warranty just in case.
Rosey is quick, thorough and a lifesaver. I have a bad back and our kitchen sink is low, I’m 5’9” and I found myself leaning on my arms while washing dishes; I’d also take breaks before I get done. Now I don’t have to be in pain while washing the dishes. It’s just my 86 yr old mother and myself so there isn’t a lot of dishes but enough to do 2 loads a day. I want also to comment that yes it’s a small machine but it will fit the lid to my 8qt Instant Pot or my Dutch oven with no problems. Some are complaining that the machine is “too small” “so tiny” “…can’t fit my dishes” and I call them whiners. It’s a small machine…you get what you pay for so don’t expect to get HUGE loads of dishes done; it’s not going to happen. What needs to happen is the person needs to learn how to play Tetris and Jengo and learn how to stack and lean dishes. Do more loads as well. You can’t expect to get all the dishes done at once if it’s completely full and the bottom sprayer arm can’t spray the dishes above it.
I have noticed that if the cart is too heavy with dishes the sprayer arm will catch on the bottom of the basket and not rotate. I have played around with the basket and I have figured out that either I can distribute the weight in towards the back of the basket OR there’s just enough room to place something, a small plastic or rubber thing but not sure what since I haven’t done it yet, under the front left wheel and that will lift the basket just enough to give clearance to the sprayer arm on the bottom. As I said, I haven’t tried it yet but I will one day. Meanwhile, the top sprayer arm is a hit and miss during rotation as well and I’m not sure why. I have included a picture of the top sprayer arm and with a twist of the middle the arm will come out of the washer and you have to make sure you line up everything just right to put it back. I took it out, inspected it, no blockage, rinsed it out and put it back but to no avail it still rotates intermittently or slowly. I have to assume is the water pressure that rotates it, just like the bottom arm, and that it just isn’t getting enough pressure maybe. It works and gets the job done. I haven’t had any dirty dishes after washing them so I can’t complain.
I have read and reread thru all the reviews and learned quite a few things from other people’s experience with the machine. There were a few people who were confused thinking the whole middle piece comes out of the bottom metal filter and what I found out is that the plastic middle OF the bigger round middle piece comes out and makes it easier to clean inside the filter. I have attached a pic of what I’m talking about.
Also, the whole pouring water in the top hole in the machine thing is brilliant BUT it’s design is flawed as more water would splash up out on top than IN the machine and when filling the machine 3 and ½ pitchers full of water some is bound to end up all over the place. I saw a review that used a collapsible silicone basin with drain over the hole and that’s how she fills her machine but I got to wondering about a canning jar funnel since it’s shorter and wider so I found once on Amazon and ordered it. As I continued to read the reviews I found someone else who had just done that herself. Two great minds think alike! I’ve attached a pic of that as well.
Now yes the machine sucks moisture out with the “Air Fresh” cycle selected and it mostly of dries everything but it’s not completely dry (at least 90%) and I tried to figure out a way to leave the door ajar so air can circulate but nothing would work UNTIL I thought of using a small magnet. I had a refrigerator magnet break on me a while back so I threw the plastic away but kept the magnet. It’s a little rectangle sized magnet and pretty much the same size as the door magnet on the machine. Once the machine is completely done I put the magnet on the machine and close the door…et voila!…the door stays ajar with a crack to circulate air and it keeps the door closed out of the way. The light automatically turns off so I didn’t have to worry about it staying on. JUST make sure you take off the magnet before you start washing. I turned on the machine but it wouldn’t let me select a cycle and I thought the machine was broken but then remembered the magnet. I took the magnet off, closed the door and was able to set the cycle and start the machine. Nice feature that it won’t let the machine start without the door being tightly closed. Brilliant! Again, a pic is attached as well.
I bought two types of detergent, powder and gel, and I can’t really tell a difference between the two when it comes to how well it cleans the dishes. I have read that powder is best if you have hard water and stuck on food since it has enzymes. My water is so hard if I threw it at someone it would kill them; gotta love the water in the desert southwest of Arizona. I do worry about hard water deposits tho as I have to regularly use vinegar in my coffee pot and tea kettle to get rid of it. I’ve read that vinegar is bad for any dishwasher so I’m not sure what to do if problems arise.
Oh…I read someone’s review that said they had a problem with the cheap suction cup on the drainage hose so I bought some aquarium suction cups with plastic straps and stuck them on my drainage hose and they work great. Also, one more tip, I added a Command strap on the back side so I can coil up the drainage hose to get it out of the way as needed. Now DON’T do what I did and forget it was there and use the machine…what a mess….lol
Overall this is a brilliant piece of kitchen machinery and I’m so so so happy I got it. I plan on babying Rosey and treating her right in hopes that she will last a few years. And before I forget, there is someone on YouTube who has figured out the error codes and he tells you what to do. I will say one thing that’s handy is pushing the Glass button and the Air Fresh button will starting the draining process and that’s really handy to know.

Too busy to wash dishes? Plates piling up in your kitchen sink? No room for a standard dishwasher? Your significant other nagging you to do dishes? Well, look no further! This is by far the BEST Portable dishwasher I’ve ever used. And here’s why.
PROS
– this is the only portable dishwasher with a viewing window so you can take a peek at any time.
– this machine allows you to add water manually (about 5.4L) at the top without ever worrying if the machine connects to your faucet or not (no professional install required).
– this portable machine fits in between our countertop and our cabinet, so make sure you get the right measurements before purchase.
– comes in different modes which includes fruit washing and baby bottle washing (very convenient for parents)
CONS
– at half the price of a standard dishwasher, it is somewhat pricey, but it gets the job done.
– it doesn’t wash as much dishes as other portable dishwashers without a viewing window
– the major con is that when you prefill the dishwasher from the top, it is impossible to avoid spilling it all over the top.
– there is no child safety lock, which means you can open the dishwasher door at any time.
– the inside light turns off after a minute or two and there’s no way to turn it back on during the wash.
TIPS:
– only buy from Amazon as the seller and shipper to ensure an authentic machine
– the machine may arrive slightly wet prior to first use – this is normal as the company states they test all machines prior to selling it.
– the machine takes dishwasher gel (I recommend the Cascade Complete gel) AND dishwasher pods, but I recommend the dishwasher gel because the machine takes a precise amount and you get more bang for your buck. Another bonus is you don’t have to worry about the pod not dissolving completely. Also keep in mind that the pods are designed for standard size dishwashers, so it may be overkill for a portable dishwasher. I have not noticed any unused dishwasher gel or white residue on any of my washes. Lastly, the machine is not equipped for rinse aid.
– I do not recommend using regular dish soap. Invest in the above options.
– make sure you turn on air refresh mode which means after your dishes are done, it will dry the dishes with the included fan for at least 15 minutes.
– Even though the dishwasher preheats the water, I recommend loading it with hot tap water in order to save time
– the tank capacity is roughly 5.4L or 3 full pitchers (pitcher included with purchase). Even if you overfill it a little, the machine will dump the extra out prior to the wash
– wash the filters once a month (instructions are found in the manual).
– make sure you don’t block the bottom of the dishwasher or else it won’t wash properly.
– make sure you don’t overload the dishwasher and the door closes on its own, otherwise if you have to forcibly close it then you will encounter a leak like other reviewers.
Overall, this is a premium product and it was a solid buy. No regrets. It’s been almost 2 months and the machine is in tip top shape, no errors like some others have mentioned. I will update this review after 6 months and then 1 year later, so stay tuned! As long as you take care of the dishwasher, it will take care of you.
6 MONTHS UPDATE:
It’s been six months and the dishwasher is still running smooth like a charm. I wash almost twice daily. No issues so far, no E1 codes. As long as you don’t overfill the dishwasher with plates/cups/utensils and making sure you don’t have to forcibly close the dishwasher door, it should continue to work just fine. Make sure to clean the filter at the bottom of the machine at least once a month because there is food debris buildup from multiple washes.
