- Does it need plumbing?
- No. It connects to a kitchen faucet with the included hose and adapter, and drains into the sink. You do need the faucet free for the length of the cycle.
- How many place settings does it hold?
- Fourteen, which is full-size capacity. That is roughly double what most countertop portables hold.
- How quiet is it?
- It is rated at 47 dB, about the level of a quiet conversation. Most portable dishwashers run louder.
- How does AutoOpen drying work?
- The door pops open slightly at the end of the cycle so steam escapes and dishes air-dry. Keep the area in front clear so the door can swing.
- Can it be built in later?
- It is designed as a freestanding portable on casters. Converting it to a built-in install is not its intended use.
- Will it fit under a standard counter?
- It is a 24-inch freestanding unit on wheels, so check your clearance before rolling it into a spot. It is meant to sit out, not slide under a counter.
