It combines a dishwasher, dish dryer and storage all in one, and has six different settings – five washing and one drying one – including quick wash, glass washing, baby care washing and even fruit and vegetable washing. It only uses five litres of water, which and cuts down on your energy bills compared to using a full size dishwasher.

The has also been getting rave reviews from Amazon shoppers, with one saying: “I can easily say this little dishwasher has been one of the best investments I have made in some time! Easy to use straight out of the box, doesn't take up a huge amount of bench space and saves arguments over who's turn it is to do the dishes, I've even got my teenage son taking turns in loading the dishwasher because he thinks it's fun! I've had no issues at all with it as of yet. If it fits in it gets washed! Do not hesitate if you are thinking of buying!!”

Another wrote: “So happy with this product! It cleans and dries your dishes in a reasonable amount of time! My partner and I had enough of manual dish washing after a year and this was an affordable solution! Holds enough dishes for 2 people, but square plates are a bit of a squeeze. It performs perfectly and my dishes have come out perfectly clean! Super easy to install especially if you are only using the self plumbing. I only wish that it has different lengths for the drainage pipe.”

However some shoppers found it a bit tight for space, with one writing: “The dishwasher is alright but as a single man in a flat on his own, it still requires a daily use as you cannot get much in it. It was advertised as a three place setting size, but in the real world when you consider cooking utensils, chopping boards , measuring jugs etc, it soon fills up.”

Elsewhere, Debenhams has the on sale too, down from £239.99 to £219.99. It also has a five litre built-in water tank with six wash programmes.
