Beko DFN 1503 W

Dishes Often still dirty after clean – Very noisy and despite always rinsing dishes thoroughly before putting them in, things frequently still come out dirty. Filter frequently gets clogged too. As do the water outlets (on the spinning arms). We are renting and the dishwasher came with the house so I have no idea how much it’s worth or how old it is all I know is that I will almost… Read more

certainly never buy a Beko product based on my experience with this machine. Often it doesn’t even start too meaning ill open the dishwasher after waiting for hours to find completely unwashed dishes.

Decent dishwasher that is very good value – We bought this dishwasher as our previous one (that came with the house we bought) broke down. We didn't want to buy an expensive brand as we were (and still are) planning to do a major renovation to our house in a few years during which we were/are planning to do up the kitchen anyway so we only needed a dishwasher for a few years. The Beko… Read more ·  1

dishwasher was one of the cheapest ones I could find new (i.e. "factory second" which helped) and it could be delivered on the same day which was reason enough to buy it.

We have had the dishwasher now for almost 3 years and it hasn't missed a beat since we bought it. The dishwasher cleans well, is easy to fill up and empty out, has a top tray that is slightly customisable (so can accommodate either tall wineglasses in the top tray or very large pots and pans in the bottom tray) and it all feels reasonably sturdy. The dishwasher does have 5 programs but we pretty much use 2 of the 5 only so the rest is rather superfluous. Cleaning out the filter is easy and as there are a few buttons on the dishwasher only its very simple to operate it (any 4 year old could do it....... if only they would).

I cannot really fault the dishwasher at all other than that it's not very fancy looking (but that can hardly be expected at this price point).

What I found interesting is that the brand "Beko" was marketed as a brand that was very popular in Europe, although I've lived in Europe for close to 30 years I had never heard of it until I bought the dishwasher in Australia. I'm fairly happy however that - while I had never heard of the brand - it didn't stop me from buying the dishwasher. For everyone that's a little hesitant still to buy this brand, I noticed they now offer 5 years of warranty on some of their products too which says something about their confidence levels at least (and perhaps the quality too).

Excellent value – Purchased 8 months ago after 30yr oldBosch finally died. Firstly it is so simple to choose & use programme setting, we use no 4 unless really big load. Secondly it washes very well, even heavy soiled. We don't pre wash!!! Dries even when left closed o'night. Nice & quiet. Always use tank water & liquid detergent. Recently purchased a Dishlex for holiday unit.......no comparison, BEKO wins by heaps...

I hate this dishwasher – I have had the Beko dishwasher for 3 years. I hate it. It's very loud, everything must be fully rinsed off or food gets stuck in the arm at the top and it's almost impossible to get out. It doesn't clean properly and often I have to hand wash afterwards. It doesn't always dissolve the tablets and most of the cups are left with dirt stuck to the… Read more

inside off them. The little things hat keep the top shelf on always come off. If I had more money I would buy a different dishwasher but that's not an option. I hate this dishwasher!!!

Never buy another one – My wife is chronicely disabled I purchased this for time management When I use it time management goes out the window as I have to does the dishes by hand to get them clean I have read. All my our reviews all I can say is I must have brought a lemon !! It's a lemon

Unhappy with dishwasher – Bought out 1st Beko home and after installation it would not switch on. Returned it the next day to retailer and brought a replacement home. After 3 weeks the 2nd machine has failed due to switch failure. Is this a common fault with this machine. Very unhappy. Have a Beco washing machine on hold, but now have my doubts about this brand. Switch problems.
