We have used the 610 for 2 years now - and are pretty happy
with our decision to go in for this. I’ve written a separate
comment on the advantages of a dishwasher - so I’ll keep
this short:
Pros:
-----
- big on space. Have washed dishes after numerous parties.
2 Hawkins Futuras (5 & 7 litres), lotsa plates, serving
dishes, non sticks and a kadhai go in with some practised
loading
- quick and quiet - in about 45 mins you’re ready to cook
again :) And the dishes come out dry and comfortably warm
- hygienic cleaning - with decent settings it has not stained
anything yet.
- Its got 2 roatarywater jets (or whatever u call them)
cleaning’s as effective in the upper shelf.
- upper shelf is adjustable - so I’ve created more space
for ’taller’ dishes below.
- The insides of the dishwasher are a breeze to clean. Enuf
filters etc to ensure no muck gets into the drains.
- The salt indicator is useful and works (the salt is for
water softening - NOT NaCl).
- Looks awesome and top notch build quality - no scratch
yet and with a soft washcloth - looks as white as when we
bought it.
Cons:
------
- Electricity bills are higher - though I don’t know if
this is against other models or just the maid :)
- more expensive than some models
I’d really recommend this model. Electrolux guys are not too
well informed - one actually suggested I could use table salt
for softening! They’ve also not followed up on the consumables
well enough - IFB has (but the IFB appliances do not age too
well - under ur kitchen countertop that’ll be an issue soon).
