It's not the best dishwasher on the market - but it's more than acceptable, especially given the price. A few little things are bothersome (but not in a way that'd stop you using it) - the upper basket "wobbles" a little front-to-back when in its higher position (to clear larger plates in the bottom basket) and the powder compartment is tricky to get to "catch" closed. However - it comes with a proper cutlery basket (instead of the cutlery drawer that all the manufacturers seem to be going for), and most importantly - dishes are clean when it's done.
