Flavia dishwasher reviews

Reviews of the Flavia dishwasher have recently flooded the internet. The number of reviews typically determines the popularity of a product, whether positive or negative, so we couldn't help but pay attention. So, what are these dishwashers like, and are they worth buying? Consumers themselves will answer these and other questions.

BI 60 KASKATA Light

Sergey, Tolyatti

To put it simply, this is a terrible dishwasher. You might say that's not possible, but everything about this machine is truly terrible. Firstly, it started to rust after 4 months of use. And, most importantly, you can't see where the rust is, and rusty water drips in. Secondly, large dishes don't fit in the basket, so washing pots and pans by hand isn't exactly a fun idea, but you have to.

The last time I had a bad experience, I set the dishwasher to three hours on plates full of dried-on food, using a whopping one and a half tablets, and what happened? Out of 12 plates, only eight actually got clean. How is that possible? Whaaaat? Three hours in a heap of good detergent can leave a mess on your plates. I appeal to all dishwasher buyers: don't make the same mistake I did and don't buy a dishwasher from this brand.

Six months ago, I bought a Flavia BI 60 KASKATA Light dishwasher. Overall, it's a decent machine, but there are a few annoying issues. I'll start with the fact that this model doesn't have a fast, or even a relatively fast, wash cycle. When you select the two-hour, ten-minute cycle, you understand why. Even a two-hour cycle doesn't provide the desired results; the dishes remain dirty, especially the pans. The only cycle that cleans properly is the long cycle, which lasts three hours and ten minutes. It's mind-boggling to wait that long. I'm not happy with this machine.

I would really like an effective regimen lasting 1 hour or, if possible, less.

I want to tell you about my new dishwasher, this model. What a great machine it is, it's been a lifesaver; now my hands always look well-groomed. I'll never forget the office party last year right after my birthday. I washed a mountain of dishes, and my hands turned into goose paws. I had to hide them from my colleagues all evening; I was terribly embarrassed. Now I can forget about that, because the dishwasher does its job perfectly. I recommend this machine to all my friends.

Valery, Volgograd

This machine is quite finicky; by the time I got the hang of it, I'd remembered the manufacturer and even its mother. Spoons and forks don't wash well; if you load the baskets with plates and pots, you have to clear the space in the middle so the lower arm can reach them, since the small upper arm can't do the job.

It's also best not to place dishes on the bottom left, otherwise the dispenser won't work properly, and the tablet inside will remain intact, resulting in poor cleaning results. I also don't like the lack of a rinse cycle; over time, I realized I couldn't use it without it. Overall, the machine is poorly designed and not worth the money.

TD 55 VALARA

Irina, Novosibirsk

I snagged this machine on sale for a reasonable price. I figured if I didn't use it myself, I'd give it to my best friend for her birthday. But when my husband saw my purchase, he immediately showed interest, installed it himself, which is strange enough, and started experimenting with washing dishes. Basically, it turned out I bought my husband a new toy, but at least it'll be useful, since he won't have to wash the dishes himself.

It was impossible to force him to wash them by hand, and now with the dishwasher he doesn’t trust me with dirty dishes, he’s a real golden husband.

He spent a long time fiddling with it, arranging the dishes this way and that, and he got the hang of it. Now, no matter how many dishes you entrust to him, it comes back clean. I ask my husband to teach me how to use the dishwasher, but he doesn't trust me with his toy. Anyway, I'm happy; the dishes are always clean.

Galina, Sochi

I dreamed of a good dishwasher for two years, but in the end I bought this sham. This dishwasher doesn't even do its job; you have to take the dishes out of the baskets and rewash them. I even arranged the dishes spaciously and sorted them so nothing unusual would end up in the machine. It was no use. The washing result is always equally disgusting. A bunchdishwasher tablets I tried gels and powders, but it was all useless. It's a bad machine.

Vlad, Omsk

I've been using this machine for four months now, and I'm completely satisfied with the quality. It's a great value for money. You really can't find anything better for the price. A+ to the manufacturer for this model; I hope it lasts a long time.

BI 45 KAMAYA

Gorelkina Elena

This high-tech dishwasher is equipped with an AquaStop. I liked the simple, hassle-free controls. And it cleans dishes well. The downside is that the capacity is a bit small; I'd like a bigger machine, so I only give it a 4.

Mikhail Rogozin

We've had our dishwasher in our kitchen for over a year now. It's never let us down, just follow the instructions and connection instructions. To enjoy the machine, you don't need to take care of it, especially by regularly cleaning the filter. The dishes are clean after washing, but still a little damp. To ensure they dry thoroughly, wait a bit and don't rush to open the door after stopping. We often load only one basket, a so-called half-load. We haven't found any issues.

Cousin Margarita

This dishwasher, even though it's Chinese-made, is a hit with our family. It cleans and dries well. We used tablets, but we noticed streaks afterward. We switched to separate detergents, and the dishes are perfect. This level of cleanliness depends on many factors: the water hardness setting, the quality of the detergent and rinse aid. It's also important to follow the instructions. I also liked the programs suitable for different types of dishes. Overall, I give this dishwasher the highest rating.

Chugaev Maxim

This machine is so-so, I would not recommend buying it, and here are the reasons:

• The drain and inlet hoses cannot be replaced with long ones, as they are attached to the machine with clamps.
• Sometimes the tablet compartment door opens spontaneously.
• After drying, a large amount of condensation settles on the walls.

Nadezhda Borisovna

I thought I could wash dishes by hand just fine, eliminating the need for a dishwasher. However, my daughter-in-law, with a vengeance, insisted on buying one, and so we got a technological marvel in our apartment. Now everyone is happy, and it turns out the dishwasher cleans better than me. It's cleaned the old pots and pans, and the grease is coming off. I apologized to the kids, and now I have free time.

As for the dishwasher itself, there's no child lock as advertised. And my little grandson keeps trying to use the buttons. It cleans perfectly even if you use inexpensive tablets. And when you follow the instructions, everything works as expected. It handles glassware without rinse aid. We run the dishwasher overnight. We consider this first machine a success. Take our cue from them, buy a dishwasher, and don't skimp, otherwise you'll pay twice. This model was quite reasonably priced.

In conclusion, it's worth noting that this brand's dishwashers aren't known for their high quality, but people still buy them and sometimes even praise them. Personal preferences vary, but whether you'll like this appliance is up to you. Don't be afraid to experiment, and good luck!

   This machine is terrible! The dishes are left dirty and caked with residue. I have to wash them all over again by hand.
