Kenwood KDW12SL3A

We have had this model for several years and today it has finally had something go wrong, just after the extended warranty ran out. It is just the plastic door latch broken. It still runs and is washing as I type. I have had it apart and providing I can get the part at a reasonable price I think this dishwasher has a few years in it yet. The only criticism is that it won't wash very soiled plates and dishes properly that are stacked close together. Other than that, if stacked properly, it is a good machine

Would I recommend this machine...Only if it's sole purpose is an enlarged paper weight or maybe a film set prop.

Do not under any circumstances but this model. I have owned the machine for 29hr and 26 minutes and three faults have appeared in that time.

It may say Kenwood on the appliance and all paperwork, but does not shout Kenwood in any way shape or form in regards to quality I would expect.

Cheap Chinese appliance trading on a strong brand name.

You only need to look at the readily avaliable spares on most websites to suggest that maybe "Everything" goes wrong with this particular model.

Even as a second hand buy avoid this model and go for something else.

Good advice - Read reviews on dishwashers before buying, its a very hit and miss affair with these appliances!!
