Reviews of the Korting KDI 60165 dishwasher

Dishwashers have been used in Germany for a long time, so it's no wonder that the German company Korting has made such advances in dishwasher manufacturing. For example, the Korting KDI 60165 dishwasher immediately gained popularity after appearing in stores. Why is this? The best way to find out is to ask customers themselves, not directly, but indirectly by reading their reviews.

About three years ago, I had a Candy dishwasher, but it broke after a couple of months, putting me off buying another dishwasher for a long time. About six months ago, I finally gave in to my wife's persuasion and bought a Korting KDI 60165 dishwasher. The salesperson recommended it, claiming it had the highest quality and best features. I personally tested the machine for a week, washing everything with various detergents, and ultimately found the salesperson correct.

I hope it lasts a long time, as it's impossible to test its reliability right away. Time will tell. For now, I can say the following:

• No amount of dirt stuck to the dishes is a serious obstacle for the machine, as it can deal with anything;
• the machine accepts any detergent and any salt, I take the cheapest ones and it does not affect the result;
• The machine is full-size and fully built-in, which allows it to be hidden behind a furniture front, although it would be a shame to hide such beauty;
• The dishwasher is very roomy, you can stuff a mountain of dirty dishes of different sizes into its baskets at once;

If all the dishes are large, you can move the baskets higher or lower to fit everything.

• The equipment has a lot of useful functions, including a half-load function.

I never thought I'd say this, but I'm happy with our dishwasher. If I'd listened to good advice earlier and bought a more expensive one, I would have been using a proper machine long ago. As it is, my wife and I have been scrubbing dishes by hand for the past two and a half years.

Between Bosch and Korting, I chose Korting. I had to think for quite a while, because Korting KDI 60165 and Bosch SMV30D20RU Two very decent dishwashers that are sold at a reasonable price. I chose Korting because of its beautiful and powerful lighting, as well as its reliable and convenient dish baskets. I think I made the right choice; I've been using it for almost a year now. I'm very grateful to the seller for giving me the right advice.

Thanks to my new Korting KDI 60165 dishwasher, I've gained a new perspective on my kitchen routine. Before, going to the kitchen after work felt like a prison sentence, anticipating the experience of a medieval dishwasher. Now, with the addition of a dishwasher, I cook more and enjoy sharing meals with my family. The most important thing is morale and mood, and something as small as a dishwasher can create that, it's amazing!

At the time of purchase, the Korting KDI 60165 was the most advanced dishwasher in this line. For $458, I got almost all the cutting-edge technology in one package. The machine has full leak protection, which is essential if you have federal judges downstairs, and a delayed start for any length of time. It also has a tablet tray, allowing you to use 3-in-1, 5-in-1, and other detergents. There's even a floor-heating beam. The machine, of course, cleans impeccably, so my rating is predictable—5 stars!

I'll try to refrain from praise and be objective, but that's quite difficult, especially when you've finally found a dishwasher that meets all your needs. The Korting KDI 60165 was truly made by professionals, as every last detail has been thought through. It washes dishes well and gently. It has a half-load setting, which I often use when I have only a small amount of dishes. In a year and a half of use, it hasn't had a single breakdown.

The most interesting thing is that I bought this machine on a whim. The salesperson didn't offer it to me, and there were no customer reviews yet, since the model was new. I had a feeling I'd like this particular machine, so to some extent, I have the gift of foresight. As the saying goes, if you don't praise yourself, you won't get praise from others... Overall, I highly recommend it!

My brother, who still works as a manager at a major home appliance store, recommended this particular machine to me. I'm used to trusting his advice, so I bought the Korting KDI 60165. It's a really good dishwasher, with all the bells and whistles, and it's inexpensive. It hasn't broken down in six months, even though we use it every day.

Recently, we managed to make some easy money, so my wife and I decided to renovate the kitchen and order new appliances. The question of which dishwasher to buy arose, and we almost had a falling out over it. We scoured the internet and various forums, but found nothing. My mother-in-law helped us reach a consensus when she recommended the Korting KDI 60165. My wife and I carefully examined the machine and reluctantly agreed it was the best option. We've been using it happily and haven't had any problems.

The dishwasher's electronics are weak. Two electronic module failures in six months is simply unacceptable. It's good that the failures occurred within the warranty period; otherwise, it would have happened later. The dishwasher itself seems fine, but what does that mean without proper electronics? Verdict: unreliable dishwasher!

The Korting KDI 60165 is an extremely unreliable washing machine that poses a health risk. It nearly electrocuted my husband, even though it was connected by professionals from a certified repair shop. After the incident, my husband was hospitalized, and my son immediately took the washing machine to a repair shop. We'll sue; I won't let this go.

I bought the car about a year ago. Recently I started having problems with dissolving powder and tablets. The machine just won't work. I've tried different detergents several times and even bought the most expensive tablets, but it's all to no avail. It looks like I need to call a professional before the problem gets worse.

I'm having trouble installing my Korting KDI 60165. I couldn't get the door panel to fit, so I called a technician. The technician tinkered with it a bit and determined that the fasteners were installed incorrectly, a manufacturing defect. I'll try taking the machine to the store; maybe they'll replace it.
