HAVA Countertop Dishwasher, 6 Programs Portable Dishwasher with Water Tank

I've been using this dishwasher about once a day for 3 months, and i love it!! It's quiet, gets everything really clean (as long as the food isn't completely dried on!), and I haven't noticed any increase in my electrical or water bills. I use the water tank instead of faucet hookup, and empty the hose into a bucket, so it doesn't even block my sink when in use. Holds about a day's worth of dishes, glasses, flatware, etc. Ordinary sized pieces fit just fine, even 12" plates and tall glasses, small pans, mixing bowls. It has 6 cycles, I use mostly the normal cycle, 1 hr plus drying, but the speed cycle 30 mn, works well for a lightly soiled load. It also has a sterilization setting for baby bottles, which I use to sanitize my canning jars. I bought a sturdy metal rolling cart for it, since I have no counter space, so I can roll it out of the way when not in use.

Now that I have had this for a bit I wanted to review it. This little machine is a beast! It cleans the dishes so well! I can fit a normal sized crockpot with the lid in it. Or about 7 bowls medium sized bowls. It is just amazing. It is quiet and runs great! I would definitely buy it again!! The only issue I had was the smell the first like 10 times it was used. It gave off this nasty plastic smell which faded and stopped, thank goodness. And this is completely normal. Just make sure to open a window or light an incense when you use it the first few times!

Purchased to relieve the strain and anxiety of hand washing dishes as my physical disability continues to get worse. It took me about a year to convince myself I should buy it, and am I glad I finally did! I don't know why I waited. It is EXTREMELY convenient and VERY spacious inside for being an 18inch cube. My first day I used it as the water tank and ran 3 loads refilling each time, it worked so good! I have since plumbed it in to my kitchen sink cold water supply. I am using liquid detergent and filling the little soap cup seems to be the just right amount for my dishes. So far I have fit four 10inch dinner plates, two 8inch plates, the silverware container filled with silverware and some small glass food containers. They ALL came out clean! It is very quiet,my microwave is louder than it is. Very easy to plumb in, the waterline connector is a standard garden hose thread so that is easy to find the parts for hooking it in. I haven't had any leaks, the waterline and drain hose go on easily and securely.

Our dishwasher died in the unit we rent and because we have a slumlord, I've got a big hole under my sink where that dishwasher used to be. I bought this based on others' ratings on it and I'm not disappointed at all. As long as you don't block the spinner arms, you can stack like TETRIS and it'll clean whatever you put in there. I personally don't have this hooked up to the main water source and am using the 5L tank. Has never leaked. Doesn't weigh a ton, so easy to move around. Fits under standard cabinet height on the counter top. It does have the hook up ability directly to your water source, but I'm using the tank. It'll ding at you when it's full, but I measured it out exactly and marked the pitcher to fill lines to get it dead on every time. Really, this thing is amazing and for the price, for us, well worth it.

I’ll try to cover everything in as little words as possible. Overall, I LOVE this thing. Use it multiple times a week, washes everything but my big pans, baking sheets, etc., and I’ve had it for almost 3 months with no issues. It fits quite a bit once you learn how to arrange things. Washes very well, only had one cup where a light lipstick stain remained, but the pics show a before and after of my pan from taco night that it got sparkling clean (I had to put it in vertical and close the door against the handle to get it to fit). Some reviews mentioned mold or tablets not breaking down, I use dishwasher liquid and I leave the door open after every cycle until it’s completely dry. That’s one con, it does not dry your dishes. Maybe partially but not completely, which doesn’t really bother me but might others. (The last pic was taken right after a wash and dry cycle) Also, the drying cycle makes a kind of high-pitch whistling noise, but you can’t really hear it unless you’re listening for it. If you put large dinner plates on the far right side, they will get pushed forward by the inside lip at the top of the dishwasher when you close the door, so either put them more towards the middle of the rack or plan to put small things beside them. I’ve used normal, speed, and fruit settings and they’ve all worked great. If you’re looking for something absolutely perfect, maybe try something else, but if you need a countertop dishwasher, get this!!

It never occurred to me dishwashers came in small, compact units like this and I've never owned even a large one. Desperation made me look - and desperation also made me buy it despite the relatively few reviews at the time. What I wanted out of this unit: 1. To fit at least three, if not four place settings. 2. To have a tank and not require a sink hookup because my apartment already has a weird attachment to the sink that won't allow something like this. 3. To lessen the water I use washing dishes. 4. To clean Tupperware! I struggle with them as they build up quickly and I can't handle the recommended hot water to get the grease off easier. Does it do these things? Yes! I have a dish set that includes the somewhat large, square plates. They do NOT fit in this unit unless I turn them sharply diagonal and take up most of the space. I DID know this would probably be the case when I picked it because I saw another reviewer complain about it and I measured it myself. I decided that was okay, I've only got four of them, and if it can take care of all my bowls and cups and the freakin' Tupperware, I'd be happy. When it arrived, it was packaged well. Had a brief period of concern because the inside had obvious water residue and condensation but then I read this is due to factory testing before shipping and not unusual. Had another moment of concern when any dishes that weren't ceramic (aka, plastic like the handles of silverware and my nemesis, the Tupperware) came out covered in white residue. It left an almost fine, powdery fog on them and actual, scrape-able white residue. Experimented - turns out I have very, very hard water. For me personally, the Finish Powerball we originally tried did not work despite being recommended for hard water, not even if we used less or more of it. What DID work was Cascade Premium - no more residue!! So it definitely wasn't the unit's fault and now it works great!!! I run this unit once or twice a day. Being able to just stick most of the day's dirty dishes inside and walk away is great. The dry mode is fine - it does not get them completely dry as water collects and remains on top of cups - and honestly I would have been fine if it didn't have one at all. The sound it emits on dry mode is not necessarily loud but it is high pitched and I don't like it, but if it's bothering me I can just turn it off and take them out to dry the old fashioned way. I have not tried any of the other modes. It comes with a pitcher (the tank takes about three pitchers to fill) and a basket to wash fruit with. The drainage hose is a little too long to sit the unit close to the sink but too short to really store it anywhere more convenient. Probably wouldn't be a problem if I could just leave the unit on my counter, but it will not fit under the cabinets so I got a rolling kitchen cart. Overall extremely satisfied and I can only hope it lasts!

UPDATE: adequate washer. LOUSY dryer. Horrible filter. Tiny particles of food get through the supposed filter. These pieces of food get stuck in the spray arms, reducing washer efficiency. For the upper arm, it doesn't give enough power to make it spin. The company has been responding to my emails by saying to push the food particles back into the arm with a small object like a chopstick. That only pushes the food particle back into the spray arm, it doesn't keep it from coming right back out and blocking it again. They tell me I should wash my dishes before I put them in the dishwasher to remove every last particle of food. If I wanted to wash my dishes by hand I wouldn't have purchased a dishwasher. FIRST: I've only run it 5 times, and it works as expected. At the beginning, the top arm takes a minute or two before it starts moving. There is an interesting piece of wire built in the rolling rack that has no explanation in the manual. My main complaints are that the suction cup on the draining hose won't stay attached to the ceramic sink wall. Also, I put it on a Normal/Dry setting, and when I came home 5 HOURS later, the dishes were still mostly wet.

Love everything about it: Excellent cleaning of dishes and pots and pans. Portability, durability, clean, size, ease to load per instructions, value for the money. It’s perfect for my tiny kitchen. It’s on a rolling cart and I can easily be in the kitchen at the same time. Acts like it’s going to last a long time. I love it. Best built appliance I’ve bought in a long time.

I've been using this dishwasher approximately three times a day for the last 10 days. I'm surprised what a fantastic job it does washing the dishes. Easily as well as a normal dishwasher. It does not have a dedicated spot to put rinse jet dry in, so you have to remember to put it in right near the end of the cycle by opening the door and putting a couple of drops in. For me, that's no problem. I've been using it not hooked up to a water tap, but with the tank built in and that works fine, though it is an extra hassle, but where I'm using it there is no running water. So the only thing that I'm not sure about, is the long-term reliability. I had another countertop dishwasher that completely fell apart after about one year. If anything goes wrong, I will update this review, but so far I'm actually pleasantly surprised.

I absolutely love this product. It fits a lot more utensils than advertised. Personally, i removed the rack for the cups, cause it's too high and they couldn't fit. That's the only downside. I put it on my counter next to my sink and that's where it stays. The hoses connect well and i love being able to fill it from the top instead of plugging it in my sink. I live alone and having to cook and do the dishes is sometimes overwhelming, This helps a lot in reducing how much dishes i clean by hand. I'm very glad of this purchase and recommand it.

I just want to say to the creators of this product: I hope you feel good about yourselves when you go to work in the mornings. What you are doing for working-class people who live in apartments is indescribable. It is 100% worth the money. The manufacturer offers a long warranty on the product, more than a year. Clearly, they are confident in what they've made and its quality. As they should be. Note the huge pasta bowl in the photo; this little powerhouse holds more than you would think. It also arrived two days earlier than expected.

Perfect for two people works well

I have had this dishwasher several month now and have wished that I had bought it years ago. I arrive home from work exhausted and it is so nice to be able to put the dishes in a dishwasher. I am single and can go about three days between loads.
