AIRMSEN Portable Countertop Dishwasher vs BLACK+DECKER BCD6W Countertop Dishwasher

The AIRMSEN is the better pick for small households that want a fast, quiet machine without plumbing work. Its built-in 5L tank runs without a faucet hookup, it is rated at 45 dB, and it has a 29-minute speed cycle. The BLACK+DECKER holds more, with a 6-setting tub and a 10-inch dinner plate fit, and it is Energy Star certified with a child lock and 24-hour delay. It is louder at 60 dB, heavier at 42.4 lb, and needs a sink hookup. Owners rate the AIRMSEN much higher, though its 2-setting capacity limits it to one or two people.

• Choose the AIRMSEN if you have a small kitchen, no free faucet, or want quiet, fast washes for one or two people.
• Choose the BLACK+DECKER if you cook for a family, need to fit dinner plates and a full load, and can leave it hooked to the sink.
