What to check before you buy a dishwasher

- Water and energy rating: lower litres per cycle and an A+++ class save on bills.
- Programs: eco, intensive, quick wash, half load and glass care are the most useful.
- Installation: you need a water inlet, a drain and a dedicated socket near the machine.
