Unhappy – After purchasing a brand new Ariston dishwasher (after our last one caught fire - we should have learnt from our first one I suppose), I can’t even start it. It keeps asking for salt. We were told by the sales person in Australia that we didn’t need salt. I don’t want to add salt or rinse aid due to the additional costs. Is there a simple solution to get our brand new dishwasher working? Thank you. Allison

Excellent, good value for money, great warranty – 5 Year Warranty offered on this machine was a big seller. We have had this dishwasher or over a year now and it has washed well. I don't rinse the dishes before they go in unless i need to. It never cloggs and rarely i need to rewash a dish. I also use half a tablet only, purely to save money at this stage and it does not effect the wash quality at all. Show details

Useless! Waste of money – Rubbish! It's all waste of money! After two times of service it has still problem with rinsing, we find much residual soap on dishes and have to rinse them manually! Don't waste your money for Ariston Show details

5 year warranty sold it to me - but extremely happy with product – I bought this dishwasher only because it offered a 5 year warranty. In fact I had never heard of the brand. Very tired of machines dying in a short time. The Ariston replaced a Smeg which only lasted 6 years despite being quite expensive. I was advised that this was a reasonable life span (not in my books). The Ariston is a far superior machine,… Read more

easy to use, quiet, no fuss, and everything is coming out very clean, much better in fact than the more expensive Smeg. Mostly use the quick cycle. Have had it a few months now and more than happy. Paid $550 at Harvey Normans.

Best dishwasher I’ve had – I’ve had this dishwasher for almost 2yrs. Its one of the cheapest I’ve owned but it’s the best. Quiet, cleans very well and a great price. I love the quick mode. A load of dishes can be done in 30mins and cleaned perfectly. Safe to say I would not live without it. Thanks ariston for a great product.  Show details ·  1

Dishwashers – Love this Dishwasher it is silent while in operation. Has a number of wash cycles . I love that you can choose either upoer or lower rack individualy.It has delayed start so you can set it to come on late at night. It also has a long 5 year warranty that othwr brands don't have  Show details

Excellent! Does what it needs to do well! – Very quiet dishwasher, and it washes perfectly even on quick wash of 40 mins. We are so glad we did not go with more expensive dishwashers. This one does the job perfectly. We paid for it at $637 from harvey norman but we are reading now some people paid it for less :/ guess we should have waited for sales. Use the right product with it to get the maximum efficiency from it!  Show details

Excellent Dishwasher – We installed this today, replacing a dishwasher the previous owners installed. We loaded the Ariston up used it straight away. Had to check to see if it was working, so quiet. When we removed the dishes they were so clean, glasses sparkled. So happy with this machine. It is amazing, best dishwasher I have had.  Show details ·  1

Does the job – I was recommended this dishwasher by the sales person and I'm glad I took their advice. Slightly more expensive than I was looking for, but it's also not the base model. The clean is good, there are lots of different options and it is whisper quiet. I would recommend this dishwasher.  Show details ·  1

I like it's sturdiness so far – It does a great job and I was sold this on it's sturdy construction and parts. You can feel it just in opening the door. On one hand I love the basic simplicity of this as we only ever run a dishwasher on heavy and don't use programs etc. however this lacks a digital display to show where you are at in the cycle... but I probably should read the manual too!  Show details

Works well if you use the right product – Bought this as I have two kids and a man at home who seem to have opposable thumbs when it comes to washing dishes. The Ariston was on sale from $699 to $499 and it came in touch proof silver - which lives up to it's name and isn't like the fingerprint smeared stainless steel silver that other appliances have. I found a variety of dishwasher… Read more

tables in my new partners house and tried them all. Yes, it doesn't work great with cheaper powder. I use the mid range stuff and it seems to work well. I run it once a day and it's quiet and easy for everyone to use (which makes me wonder why they haven't.... mmmm) as it's a one button push start. I like the adjustable shelf too. All in all I think I got great value for my money. I would recommend it.

This is perfect & I couldn’t live without it – The Ariston dishwasher cleans & drys my dishes perfectly, (I always open the door when it’s finished to assist in the drying). It is so quiet I sometimes have to double check to make sure it’s actually going. I think my favourite feature is the layout for stacking plates, glasses etc & the cutlery holder can be used in more than one spot. It has a… Read more ·  1

variety of washing features though I usually use the same one unless I have special cleaning needs. I don’t have to buy the most expensive dishwashing tablets that most new machines recommend- the Finish 3 in 1 works every time. Great for cleaning pots with the adjustable height.

BIGGEST HEAP OF JUNK - SWASTE OF OUR HARD EARNED MONEY !! – Not only 2 months old, has never cleaned dishes from day 1, the soap dispenser only open 3 out 4 times, very disappointing, the dishes are wet and still dirty, spoke to the Harvey Norman rep, he said we don't need to add salt, but the light remains on and beeps all the time. We would like a refund, please contact me so I can provide my bank details.  Show details

Never knew dishwashers could be so simple – I was under the impression dishwashers guzzled water and are super loud... those people never had this dishwasher. I actually have to go and check to see if it’s finsihed or still on coz I can not hear it at all. Water usage is less than what I would use running the water to do dishes by hand I like that it’s so simple and easy to use No complicated system  Show details

ARISTON DISHWASHER – Great dishwasher - I was going to buy a replacement Dishlex but the Ariston ticked all the boxes on things important to me such as energy efficiency, value for money, size wise, very stylish and modern. I will be recommending the Ariston Dishwasher to my family, friends and work mates.  Show details

Breath of fresh air – Finally after 12 months of coping with a woeful 'other brand' we purchased the Ariston. A super quiet machine that actually washes/dries dishes and pans superbly. Simple to use and easy to load and unload. Adjustable top shelf is a great feature. At mid $600's is a very compelling price point.  Show details

Great Dishwasher – After having a Bosch dishwasher for years, my choice was between the Bosch and the Ariston. Im glad I chose the Ariston. Its got a fully adjustable top shelf, and the bottom shelf has plate racks that fold down, and the cutlery holder can be placed anywhere at the front, and is also adjustable. I've had it for just over a fortnight, and am really… Read more

impressed with how clean and dry my dishes come out. Maybe 3 hours for the normal cycle is a touch long, but since my dishes come out sparkling like never in the bosch, im happy to wait (there's a shorter 1 hour fully cycle, but im yet to use that).

Love it – Washes well and even without rinse aid dries well. Soo quiet. Has normal wash as well as the quick wash. I chose the model with a dial at the front as it was cheaper than the digital and the salesman at joyce mayne told me they both have the exact same board anyway. Brough Ariston as I also have the oven and hot plate which I love.  Show details

Very happy with the choice – When our 20 year old Fisher & Paykel finally died, we looked at many machines, finally buying the Ariston partly on salesperson's recommendation, partly on price, and we were impressed that the shelving has various adjustments, making it easy to maximise its capacity, according to the items needing washed. The machine washes well, and does so… Read more ·  1

very quietly - it is so quiet that I sometimes have to check that I had remembered to switch it on! As I've only had the machine two months, its too early to say much about reliability, but so far, no problems.

The only negative is that there is no separate Rinse cycle,(which I had on our previous machine), but it was a feature I seldom used, so am not missing it.

Great machine, great price – Dishes come out clean sparkling and dry. I am very happy with the machine. Not too noisy too. Handy to have the temperature and half wash option for faster wash. Water consumption reasonable as well. Would not hesitate to recommend to my friends, especially price is very reasonable for European made model.  Show details

Great Dishwasher – Great dishwasher. Very happy. Dishes are coming out clean unlike our old one that was failing. Some are slightly damp but our old one did this too so we are used to opening the door soon after the cycle completes. Installation was very easy. Hoses were the same length and diameter as the old one so plugged straight in. Got a good price and… Read more ·  1

extended warranty from Harvey Norman. Was going to buy the entry level Bosch because it rated well in Choice but didn't like the plastic bottom inside the unit and it felt "light". The Ariston is stainless steel through out and feels solid.

Was a bit confused by the requirement for salt but did some online research and found that salt isn't really needed in Australia as water is much harder in Europe where this machine was manufactured. Unit functions fine without it.

Good water and power usage specs too.

Very, very quiet. Had to check it the first time to make sure that it was actually on.

Highly recommended.

Dont buy Ariston – Within the first 2 weeks the R on the Ariston label on front of dishwasher has fallen off. Then i can say it doesn't dry the dishes and leaves a lot of moisture inside after each wash which means i leave the door down so it can dry. Was going to buy a Bosch but Harvey Norman convinced me this product was better. Never again will i buy Ariston… Read more

appliances. I have recently heard that harvey own the product Ariston so that explains there push towards that product. Don't fall for it.

Awful so far – Dishwasher supplied with woefully inadequate length drain hose. Obviously skimped on few cents worth of hose, wonder what else has been skimped on. Rang Ariston who said , not our problem, tough that other brands do better Had to trudge to hardware shop to go and buy more hose and joiners which creates a potential leak point Normal wash cycle… Read more

is nearly 3hrs , much longer than previous asko and dishes are still wet at the end of it
