The Schonhaus DWSI0115FSB 15 place settings integrated dishwasher uses Auto Door drying, opening its door at the end of a cycle so steam can escape and your dishes dry naturally. This full-size model adds a third rack for cutlery and utensils, and its 8 programmes range from a 59 min wash to a Heavy programme for dirtier loads.
Washing
Rated A for cleaning and A for drying, it needs 9.5 l of water per cycle. A BLDC inverter motor powers every wash with a rated noise level of 44 dB, so it can run quietly in the evening. Laying cutlery and small utensils flat in the third rack keeps the lower baskets clear for plates, pans and serving dishes. A half load option lets you wash a smaller batch without waiting to fill both racks. Once the programme ends, Auto Door releases the door and lets the steam out, so everything air-dries. The dishwasher holds TUV certification.
Programmes and controls
You choose from 8 programmes on the touch controls, and a display counts down the time left:
- Glass and Prewash
- 59 min and Fast for when time is short
- Heavy for dirtier loads
- ECO and Normal for day-to-day washing
- Auto
Setting the 24-hour delay timer means it can start overnight or while you are away. Salt and rinse aid indicators tell you when to refill, a child lock stops the settings being changed, and a Water Protect System is built in.
Size and installation
Standing 82 cm high, the dishwasher is 59.8 cm wide and 55.4 cm deep, and it weighs 45 kg. Being an integrated machine, it takes a furniture door panel that matches the rest of your units. That panel is fixed on a sliding hinge, which lets it travel with the dishwasher door each time you open it.
