Comments about Danby Energy Star Portable Dishwasher - DDW1805W:

This dishwasher was great while it worked. We received it in late April and in July it started to freak out - basically the cycle would run fine, but when it reached the end of the cycle it would just automatically start a new one. If you didn't catch it in time, it would refill with water and you'd basically have to let it go through the next cycle as well. What a waste of time, energy and water!! Then when we tried to get the machine serviced, the nightmare began...

Comments about Danby Energy Star Portable Dishwasher - DDW1805W:

Why did I wait so long to get a dishwasher? Sure I have a small kitchen and no place for a built in without losing precious cabinet space. Sure I hand washed dishes all my life and recently noticed my dishes were not getting clean (could be my advancing age!). This Danby is quiet, easy to manipulate and washed dishes like crazy. Even coffee cups with what I thought were permanent brown stains came out amazingly clean and WHITE. I was leary about a portable, but it does a better job than some full sized built ins I've seen. It's a perfect size for just the two of us. We just accumulate a couple of days worth of dishes to fill it up and then let it go! WHAT WAS I WAITING FOR?

Hoses a little short

Bottom Line:

Comments about Danby Energy Star Portable Dishwasher - DDW1805W:

This compact dishwasher works great, easy to use with simple controls, and enough room for the two of us without using a lot of floor space.
The only improvement could be a little longer water hoses, these just reach the sink, but it is a portable.

Perfect, perfect, perfect! No leaks, no dents, no problems. Absolutely perfect. The cleanest dishes I have ever seen. Fits perfectly into my small kitchen. Easy to move. Easy to hook-up to fawcet. Easy to load and unload. Easy to store hoses and electrical cord in the back of the machine. I love it! No more doing dishes - and no more disgusting piles of dirty dishes in the sink! I highly recommend this dynamo to everyone who does dishes by hand and has limited space. As I write this, the little gem is doing it's job in the kitchen and I am free to do something else! [...].
