Good Points: Very long life, 15 years and still washing! Very easy to use, has lots of space, can wash pots and pans safely and washes OK for its age!
Bad Points: Bit of an eyesore in the kitchen, on/off button falls out, door hinge needs tightening regularly, getting dirty and rusty. No half load for small washed. The lower basket fails to stay in place, bad when it is loaded with dishes and pans!
General comments: If I ever asked you what dishwasher had a long life span, you would shout, MIELE! BOSCH! SIEMENS! If I said Indesit, you'll be thinking "Looney guy!"
Well, it is true. When I moved into my new house, there was an Indesit 3000W dishwasher. I decided to keep and use it, it was my first ever time at a dishwasher. It actually belonged to my gran, who passed away, who actually had the dishwasher as a gift from my uncle, who used it before.
I used to curse Indesit many times and still do. I had a rubbish cooker and fridge of Indesit which had a short life span, rubbish and dangerous. (The cooker overheated, and the fridge blew a fuse!).
My Indesit D3000 (3000W) has lasted for 15 YEARS! And at this moment, there are still dishes inside to be washed. It is fabulous, it washes dishes for a family of seven (Well eight, there is a cat too but we don't wash its dishes inside it) and it is so easy to use. It washes OK and dishes left dirty are the really stubborn stains or the filter needs cleaning.
But a dishwasher 15 years old won't be very perfect. It is dirty and grubby, the hinges are all rusted and the white is soon yellowing to dirty yellow! But it still washes.
I think it will soon pack up and we will need a new dishwasher, even though I would not recommend buy this dishwasher now at its age, or buy Indesit because they are rubbish now, the dishwasher is perfectly good and I would have recommended it when it was new! It is good, though it is not Bosch but is an Indesit!
