Recommendations for Dishwasher - Budget $500

Hello all, recommendation for freestanding 60 cm dishwasher around 500 bucks.

Shortlisted 2:

1) https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/659466: this is back in stock now, will be around 450 but reviews aren't good.

2) https://www.binglee.com.au/products/haier-hdw15v2s2-60cm-fre…, this one will be around 540.

Suggestions from these 2 please?

Any other good dishwasher around that price range please?

Ta.

    one thing to look for is whether your current plates fit into the machine.

    at my previous house I bought a machine and my maxwell and williams plates were too large for the main drawer.

    just a minor consideration to think about

    • Ditto this

      Though most dishwashers do have adjustable top rack, it usually has 2-3 different positions

    • I stupidly didn’t measure our new plates, and they’re .5cm too big for our dishwasher. So I have to hand wash them

      I want to know the thought process some people go through to create a whole new thread rather than do a simple 2 second Ozbargain search.

      • I'll explain it below because I'm not allowed to use hand puppets…

        Everything we know from recent studies is in the Brackets below:

  • Had experience with a couple of Haier dishwashers. They are junk. If you get one, plan on replacing it not too long after warranty expires.

  • I have always bought 2nd hand and never had any issues

    I just picked up a practically brand-new (you can still buy it from Harvey Norman) Smeg dishwasher for $125. It had a ridiculously noisy hinge (which was an easy fix) and I reckon they were just looking to get rid of it and replace it

  • I purchased an awesome Bosch dishwasher for $500 (in 2017) - I can send you a receipt to see if you can price match it?
    It's the SMS40E08AU Bosch SMS40E08AU Free Standing Dishwasher:

    • Thanks. This model is unavailable at JB, wondering why they would have it listed on their site.

  • Beko BDF1410 (has 5 yrs warranty and 10 yrs motor warranty - don't know about their warranty honours) also has good reviews but slightly over budget around 650ish. Anyone used one these?

    • Beko and Altus (above) are related…
      Brands under Arçelik include Arçelik, Beko, Altus, Blomberg, Arctic, Leisure, Arstil, Elektra Bregenz and Flavel.

  • With this kind of budget, your options are extremely limited, pretty much whatever you can find for that price. They're all more or less the same on the lowest tier.

  • Still on the lookout for a Bosch series 6 (or 8) on sale for a decent price. Been waiting months

    • please let me know when you find something I need one ASAP and i cant find a series 6 for a decent price
