Most households especially those within city areas, own dishwashers to complement their busy lifestyles. A dishwasher is a machine used to clean dishware, cookware, and cutlery automatically. It operates by spraying hot water and dishwater detergent onto the kitchenware and dishes. This mixture is usually recirculated to save water and energy followed by the main wash that uses fresh water and detergent. After this process, the dishes and kitchenware are rinsed and then dried.
Buying yourself a dishwasher will save you time cleaning up after an extravagant meal. It will also save you water as compared to manual washing. You can rest assured that your wine glasses will appear shinier and cleaner and your plates will look as good as new. Modern dishwashers also have sterilizing functions that can help remove bacteria from your dishes and cookware. As an additional benefit, your hands would not have to deal with harsh chemicals that are used to scrub stubborn stains on plates, pots, and pans. Read on to find out about the top 15 best dishwashers in Malaysia.
What features do you look for in a dishwasher?
If your dishwasher is making loud noises or its water is having trouble draining, it is time to buy a new dishwasher. There are many types of dishwashers in different shapes and sizes on the market, so it might be rather confusing when you are out shopping for one. Here are 5 useful features to consider when you are looking for a dishwasher:
- Material
Look for a dishwasher where the inside tub is often made of stainless steel because stainless steel can withstand heat better than plastic and is more durable as it will not rust. Stainless steel also retains heat, dries faster, and is more energy-saving.
- Space and adjustability
Measure the area in your kitchen where you wish to place your dishwasher. If you have a tiny kitchen, choose a dishwasher with a slim and compact design. You can opt for a dishwasher that has a stable door that can be balanced at any angle. This way, you can load and unload your dishes without fully opening the dishwasher door.
- Washing cycle options
Choose dishwashers with specified wash cycles for pots, pans, china, and wine glasses, or those with steam cleaning functions. This way, your kitchenware, plates, and glasses can be washed safely without them being damaged.
- Noise
Choose washing machines that can operate with low noise so that the machine can run quietly without causing any disturbances while you are working or doing your chores at home.
- Child safety lock
A child lock is important if you have small children as it prevents your child from accidentally changing the settings on the machine and increases the safety within your home.
