None! besides the fact it matches the awful hotpoint washing machine & fridge I bought.

Bad Points
It does not wash or dry dishes properly.

General Comments
I bought a Hotpoint FDW60 19 months ago after having terrible problems with another brand & thought my problems would be over, little did I know then. I have had 4 call outs alone this week & 4 call outs at least since I bought it. It doesn't wash properly at all at the moment, any residual dirt on dishes won't come off, only rinses in warm - hot water though not as hot as it should be. won't dry then the eco light & 45 degree light flashes, engineer has replaced arms where water come out of & 2 electrical boards in front of machine & filter system & I still have exact same problem. As it's out of warranty now as I never got an extended warranty I have to pay 114 euro for the callout & it's not looking like they going to be able to fix it so will probably end up hand washing till I can buy another dishwasher, the next one will be my 5th in 5 years!!! I will never buy anything Hotpoint again, I'm on my second hotpoint washing machine, which broke after one wash! the service & everything to do with hotpoint is just AWFUL to me
