Hisense HV16AUK Integrated Full Size Dishwasher

Great features. Easy to operate.

Dishwasher is still very new, so early days. Working well with some great features. I am amazed at how dry the contents of the dishwasher are at the end of the cycle.

Very frustrating to fit

Very early days as I've had it for 3 days. Summary: - installation guide is poor - no door template - not easy to get door attached accurately - not as quiet as my previous 15yo Indesit - plenty of room inside - door open at end of cycle is not a good idea - energy rating A should mean it pays for itself in savings over lifetime (if it lasts) - only 2 year warranty Details: There is no template for attaching your door (useful for pilot holes) and no slot bolts to hold it in place while you fix with screws. It does come with sticky-back Velcro strips that should hold the door in place while you attach with screws - they don't hold. Partly because they don't bond with your door, and partly because once you have lined up the door (while closed), the force needed to open it (due to counter-balance springs) will pull the strips off the door (as the Velcro bond is stronger than the adhesive). You may be able to get around this by temporarily unlooping the sprung cord from the sides at the bottom to relieve the force, but you will then need to re-loop this cord. Please note, that until you attach your external door, the dishwasher door will not stay open fully (it is sprung the weight of the door is required for this). I wasn't able to extend the feet so it mated against my worktop, so I attached a piece of wood under my worktop to fill this gap. This would not be a massive issue except that the dishwasher opens towards the end of the cycle (supposedly to help drying) but this will release steam under your worktop. This is why they include a self-adhesive plastic strip to reduce the chance of delamination from this terrible idea. As mentioned by the delivery driver, sometimes a few fixing screws or other parts are missing compared to the installation guide. This was the case for me too, but I had sufficient to install. The water inlet looks like it includes a water-hammer suppressant - which is good. However, the screw attachment does not seem to mate perfectly as you may benefit from some PVTE to prevent small drip leaks. Once hooked up, it isn't the quietest but it works well. I find the 2 year warranty ridiculously short, so will be getting an extended warranty.

Good / bad

I brought a integrated dishwasher and had issues when it came to fixing the door panel, the Velcro stickers given to hold the door in place while you line it up ( before fitting the screws) are not man enough. But the rest of the insulation went smoothly. And as for the dishwasher itself it is very good.

Impressed

What can I say, I'm extremely impressed with this purchase. Did a lot of research before buying. The cleaning is amazing. The jets really make a difference i think, and can be on or off. Love the trays and the layout. The top cutlery drawer is a game changer, no more separate basket and leaves more room in the other two shelves. Easy to use, quiet and the door opens itself after cleaning. Well worth spending a bit extra.

Spacious and so quiet

Really spacious and can be loaded with much more than our previous machine. Also, so quite that you need the great floor light to know it is on.

Excellent design

I'm not normally a review either but this item deserves a review. Hisense have really consider how to get the best from your dishwasher ensuring maximum cleaning with 3 shelves. This is me sensing dishwasher with 3 shelves, as this was a priority for me as I've found the baskets are not as effective at cleaning. The top shelf for cutlery allows you to place all items so they are not touching other items, resulting in thoroughly cleaned knives etc. So no cutlery basket taking up valuable space on the bottom shelf. The other 2 shelves are well designed allowing the greatest flexibility to arrange your dishes. The bottom shelf has a lift up bottle support which I have found really useful. No more fallen b bottles filled with water 😊 When the wash has finished the for automatically opens to slow the heat/steam too slowly escape which helps with the drying of plastic item. We are currently working through the different program and there is a good choice for every occasion. And bonus of 16 place settings ❤️ which means no dirty pots left for the next wash. ❤️ So pleased with the design and qualify welding. Hisense. I think I'm becoming a Hisense lover as my lady 3 kitchen product are Hisense. Fridge/freezer and separate upright freezer. Again both are well designed with attention to detail ❤️

Like the design and features

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Only used a couple of times as new but results look good. Like the automatic door release

Great dishwasher with a really good quick wash.

I bought this just before Christmas as mine was very old and playing up. It was delivered and fittedwithin days of ordering and works perfectly. It provides good space for dishes, cutlery and pots and pans and is very effective at cleaning on the short wash. I would recommend Hisense to others as a great buy.
