In our specialised labs, we load up dozens of dishwashers with piles of dirty dishes, cutlery, glassware and cookware to thoroughly test each model so we can tell you which dishwashers:

• wash best
• dry best
• use the least water and energy
• have more features
• are quieter than others
• have the best member-rated reliability scores.

We’ve also partnered with Shop Ethical on this update to show the ratings the Ethical Consumer Group gives to each company.

Shopping links on the CHOICE website

CHOICE is an independent, nonprofit organisation dedicated to helping consumers. Clicking a link will take you to a retailer’s website to shop. While we make money if you buy through some retailer links, this doesn’t influence any of our rankings. 100% of the money we make goes straight back into our nonprofit mission. We’re currently testing this service and will consider providing more shopping links in the future. Tell us what you think.
