Asko Fully Integrated 82cm Dishwasher

DFI643 $1499

The most affordable model available in Asko’s integrated dishwasher range (with its top display and a custom door, it blends seamlessly into any kitchen cabinetry), this 82cm washer is classified as ‘XL’ and can comfortabl­y clean 14 place settings in one cycle. With baskets at two levels and four run modes for instant program adaption, it earns eco points with a 4.5-star water rating (thanks to a water consumptio­n volume of just 12.7L per cycle). The clever upper or lower half-load wash option is ideal for days when there are less dishes to clean, and smart high-pressure Wide Spray technology gets even the messiest pots and pans spotless.

DBI654IBXX­L $2199

If you’re looking for something mid-range that offers all the basic practicali­ties with a little extra space thrown in, this is the model for you. Asko’s 86cm built-in dishwasher is roomy enough for 15 place settings and features a unique Super Cleaning System (a pre-wash rinse-and-drain function so you don’t need to run dirty dishes under the tap before loading them into the dishwasher). It’s a green machine, too, with a 5-star water rating.

At the top end of Asko’s dishwasher range is the 86cm built-in model, complete with all the bells and whistles. With a max capacity of 16 place settings (the greatest you can find in the Asko range), it comes with other extras you don’t get with the less-expensive models, including LED lighting, a water recycling tank, Turbo Drying Express option, four basket levels instead of the standard three, and exclusive basket configurat­ion, which means fully flexible all-foldable pins, Light Lock for plastic items and vase/bottle holder. It takes the lead in the efficiency stakes, too, with an impressive 6-star water rating and just 10.6L of water consumptio­n per cycle.
