Reviews of the Hansa ZIM 415H dishwasher

reviews of Hansa ZIM 415HThe household appliances market offers a considerable selection of budget dishwashers. For example, the Hansa ZIM 415H dishwasher costs about $260. Indeed, at first glance, it’s not a bad machine, but it’s worth studying its technical characteristics in more detail, as well as reading user reviews.

Characteristics

The Chinese-assembled Hansa 45 cm dishwasher has minimal characteristics. It holds 9 sets of standard dishes, thanks to the presence of two retractable trays for plates and other utensils, as well as a basket for spoons and forks. The main characteristics are as follows:

  • electricity consumption is 0.75 kW per washing cycle;
  • water consumption – 9 liters of water;
  • average program duration – 175 minutes;
  • noise level is only 47 dB;
  • 4 different temperature settings;
  • 5 programs, including a program for delicate dishes and crystal;
  • delayed start up to 9 hours;
  • complete protection against leaks.

You shouldn't expect much more from this dishwasher. It does not have an attractive display and protection in the form of a child lock. In addition, condensation drying is carried out naturally; the dishes are not blown with hot air. The washing machine also lacks the following “goodies”:

  • automatic determination of water hardness;
  • compartment for tablets 3 in 1;
  • a sound signal upon completion of washing and a “beam” on the floor;
  • intensive washing;
  • salt indicator;
  • The baskets are not height adjustable.

Note! The dimensions of the dishwasher (WxDxH) for built-in are 45x58x82 cm.

Hansa's built-in dishwasher has good sound insulation, making it very quiet.It has a narrow body, but quite a lot of dishes fit into it. For a family with parents and two children, this capacity is quite enough. During the year of use I did not find any problems. The machine is good and very economical. It spends only 8.5 liters of water per wash cycle, which is almost a record.

I had to read on the forums that this machine doesn’t dry well, and dishes, if you don’t take them out for a long time, acquire a musty smell. Nothing of the kind is observed. This particular machine does not have a turbo dryer, but condensation drying also works great, the dishes are always dry. You won’t miss the end of the washing program, because the machine notifies you of this with a piercing sound signal. I wash not too dirty dishes at 45 degrees, and wash dirty dishes at 65 degrees. The result suits me!

I couldn't start the machine the first time. After half an hour of torment and reading the “crooked” instructions, I realized that I needed to load not only salt and powder, but also rinse aid. When I loaded everything, the machine started and did not require rinse aid in the future. It washes well, there were no problems other than the first run. Great technique, I recommend it to everyone!

Tired of washing dishes by hand, my husband and I decided to welcome progress by buying a Hans dishwasher. We chose this particular model thanks to our friend, a dishwasher and washing machine repair specialist, and purchased it in a store via the Internet. The machine is built-in, so it is not visible and does not spoil the interior. It washes well, but there is no half load, so you have to add more dishes.

The cutlery basket has an unfortunate design; spoons and forks are poorly washed in it, so I put them between plates and cups, this gives a better result. The dishwasher cleans perfectly well if you stack the dishes more loosely and do not fill the basket to the top. There is a drawback: it doesn’t clean mugs and cups of tea and coffee stains well, even if you use expensive ones Frau Schmidt dishwasher tablets. So I clean the mugs the old fashioned way, by hand. But the glass is washed just fine. Overall, the machine is good and I’m glad that I have it on my farm!
