COMFEE' Portable Dishwasher Countertop with 5L Built-in Water Tank, No Hookup Needed, 6 Programs, 360° Dual Spray, 192℉ High-Temp& Air-Dry Function, Mini Dishwasher for RVs, White

I've been using this machine close to 2 years now, and this thing has been a daily driver of mine for knocking out almost any and all dishwasher safe utensils and dishes alike in my kitchen. I hate handwashing and avoid it all if I possibly can. I can't really comment on some of the other features it has, like washing fruits, but this little guy does have those mechanisms incorporated into it if you wish to try your fancy on it. To get the dishwasher running is nearly self explanatory, and I found it incredibly easy to set it all up together.My sink doesn't like working with my larger dishwasher, so the water reservoir at the top is a godsend if you have plumbing issues in your house like I do. and an additional tube to dispose of the water is included. I will make mention of the fact as long you keep the filter clean and unimpeded of debris, there won't be any build up of the interior. I just use powder dish detergent to clean my dishes, no fancy pods or anything of the sort.This comfee dishwasher also takes up a reasonable amount of counterspace, so I would take that into consideration if you set it next to the sink, that because of its heftiness, you'll have a pseudo-permanent fixture that gets occupied. You can fit a decent amount of dishes into it, even a small pot and some extra dishes, but I suggest avoid any overcrowding to get the best results and mileage out of using it. This is great if you're living on your own, or have a roommate to help keep up with things. It may not be the best dishwasher if you're taking care of a large family, but I'd imagine it's the best if you're living in a dorm. To me, this is arguably the best product I've purchased on this site. It has saved me a lot of the headaches that is handwashing, and given me peace of mind knowing everything I put in, comes out in near mint condition.

As a journalist, I tend to read bad reviews before I read good reviews because I know many good reviews are paid for. I can usually read between the lines on bad reviews if someone is really not happy with the product or if they're just mad with the delivery service and blaming the product. So, when I researched and reviewed many brands of countertop mini-dishwashers, I was hesitant. And I was unfamiliar with the brand Comfee. So I researched literally for months. The majority of the reviews were pretty good, I must say, very few complaints. Most negative reviews sounded like ppl who didn't understand how it worked.There is a small learning curve but the Comfee manual clearly explains all the how to's, do's and don'ts. It is well packed in its box and very heavy. Perhaps a big guy can lift it to the counter alone but in my case, it took two women to place it on the counter. As it states, it is small, good for a 2 place setting if you pack it right. But I've washed small pans and pan covers, among the dishes, and all came out well. It's important to note that it does have upper and lower rotors so be careful not to pack things too high or let silverware or handles fall through the silverware rack.The tray on which dishes are placed rolls easily in and out of the machine so you can let it dry out in your sink while wiping down the interior after a wash. The model I chose really doesn't have a drying portion so I let it sit for about 1/2 hour after wash is complete and then open the door and let the rest air dry. I have only needed to use it twice a week, enough that I don't need to do dishes manually anymore, which is fantastic.So far, it has done a higher than expected awesome job at cleaning everything. No spots, no lines, no streaks. It is also remarkably quiet. I have used only the manual wash where you pour the water into it via a top filter. Comfee provides the pitcher and a scoop so the water goes right in, about 3 gallons. A buzzer rings when it's full so you don't have to guess or worry about overspill. Then I use the drain hose provided to drain the water right into my sink. This was the key reason for this purchase. I didn't want to hook anything up to my faucet as it would be too big a pain to attach and detach for each wash. This feature makes it very portable too like for an RV.Biggest advice, read the instructions. Comfee makes it very clear on use, cleaning, things to do in which order, one of the best manuals I've every seen. I have a very small kitchen and even less counter space so this was perfect for my counter. Those who have seen it have fallen in love with it.The model I purchased has a fruit cleaner but does not supply a colander so I bought an itty bitty one on Amazon. It also has short wash, long wash, and a couple of other options. I strongly suggest that after each wash, say before bed, leave the door open to air out. Wipe down the inside walls and floor but a good airing certainly helps too. It does have a little removable filter on the floor that is supposed to capture any food left on plates. However, I rinse all my dishes and silverware before I put anything in the Comfee as I don't want to take the risk of something clogging up the machine. I take the filter out once a week and wipe it clean anyway and dry up any water left over so it doesn't get moldy or attract bugs.This Comfee model was $300 on Amazon but like most things I just put it in my cart and waited for a sale. Amazon notifies you when things in your cart are discounted or go on sale. Finally, after a couple of months, Amazon had a sale and Comfee was offering $40 off so it ended up costing about $200. Even though I've used it only about a dozen times so far... it has been worth every penny, less work, more time for other stuff., and far less dishwater hands and fingers.I wish I had a complaint but so far so good. I am delightfully surprised and happy with this purchase. If anything changes or it breaks down after a few months, I'll be back to let you know.
