45cm Dishwashers

24 products

When selecting a 45 cm dishwasher, you’re choosing a compact and efficient appliance designed for smaller kitchens or households with less space. Despite their narrower width, these dishwashers still offer significant functionality and are ideal for individuals, couples, or small families who need an effective and space-saving solution for dishwashing.

Size is a major advantage of 45 cm dishwashers. Their compact design allows them to fit into tighter spaces where a standard 60 cm model might not be suitable. They typically accommodate 9-10 place settings, making them perfect for smaller households or apartments. Ensure the dishwasher fits within the allocated space in your kitchen, allowing for adequate ventilation and door clearance.

Wash programs are essential for catering to various cleaning needs. Look for models that offer a range of programs such as Eco, Intensive, Quick Wash, and Delicate. These settings enable you to adjust the wash cycle based on the type of load, from lightly soiled everyday items to more heavily soiled pots and pans, ensuring thorough cleaning and protection of your dishes.

Energy efficiency is another key consideration. Choose a dishwasher with a high energy rating (A+ or better) to ensure it uses less electricity and water, helping to lower your utility bills and reduce environmental impact. Features such as eco-friendly wash cycles and energy-saving options enhance overall efficiency.

Key features to consider include:

Adjustable racks: Many 45 cm dishwashers come with adjustable or removable racks and cutlery trays, allowing you to customize the interior layout to accommodate larger or irregularly shaped items.
Delay start: This feature allows you to schedule the dishwasher to start at a later time, offering convenience for managing your cleaning schedule and potentially taking advantage of off-peak electricity rates.
Noise level: Dishwashers vary in noise levels, measured in decibels (dB). For a quieter operation, especially in open-plan spaces, consider models with lower noise ratings.
