Turkey is half asia half europe (can’t remember the exact %, but i think 90% asia 10% europe). So manufacture in europe is about right

And from google beko also have factory in Russia & Romania which is definitely europe.

If you’re considering beko, you might as well take a look at other european brand like brandt, teka, electrolux and etc. All in similar price range.

I’m eyeing on Bosch, but not sure which series yet. Which is recommended? Budget around rm3k and most of them are around that range

For bosch i would recommend you to go to their showroom in Publika and their staff will explain to you in details pros and cons of each model. They are very knowledgable on their products unlike salesperson in electrical shop. And yeah plenty of model to choose from with 3k budget.

I know, but I still wanted to gauge how much approximately. But Rm0.35 per wash is not bad at all

Ya. That’s based on their specification. The average use of power is 1kwh, so roughly rm0.28 (if you are at second tier, first tier even cheaper)

Forgot. The washing powder can be a little expensive. But I guess around rm1 per wash or less

SMS46GW01P vs SMS50E82EU Bosch dishwasher what are the difference? Can’t find much in their website. Seem like really need to go to publika.

I am using FOSTER dishwasher in my showroom. As we have events occasionally and will need to wash a lot of dishes, i really need a dishwasher.

Since it is a showroom, i wish to have something that can blend in with my showroom and look nice (modern). Also it has to be durable, since it comes with 3 years warranty and made in italy, i choose FOSTER. Here is my review for it. If wanna to know more and test it, can dropby my showroom, it is a working unit not a regular display only

Bosch authorised dealer is not nice to deal with. Very pushy. L

The one in publika? Who served you?

Last time i went there i didn’t notice the pushiness, maybe because i went there with intention to bargain best price not to compare brands.

Simon. The same person in charge of their online store in Lazada.

yes u can put pots and frying pan. Yes cleaning is 1 to 2 hours depending on which mode u use.

However, sticky food on pots and pans cant be removed. my Rule of thumb, anything that cant dissolve with hot water and require scrubbing, dont put in dishwasher.

Example, porridge or meat sticking on the pan

Proper placement of dishes, cups, cutlery and utensils are crucial. Cutlery especially need to be spaced out. The cutlery basket caddy without the space guide grille needs careful distribution such that forks and spoons don't clump together preventing reach of detergent and water.

In the past, it is true that dishwashers don't wash out stains much less stubborn stains very well for a very simple reason...the hot water is not hot enough. Today, hard stubborn stains can be removed even if left overnight if the dishwasher's intensive wash program temperature is at least 70°C. Of course, it's better to scrape off the excess.

When getting a dishwasher, ensure its highest temp meets the above criteria for the intensive wash program. Anything less leaves the dishwasher wanting in its purpose.

The other thing is the dishwasher powder/tablets and rinsing aid liquid. Some have it combined in one tablet. Commonly it's separately wash tablet and rinse aid liquid. Try different brands. So far, Henkel's Somat works very well.

As with washing machines or hot water storage heaters, filter out sediments at point of entry down to no larger than 1 micron to ensure sediments don't clog the water intake inlet which has a sediment screen like front load washing machines. Otherwise, excess sediments might play havoc with the spray pattern.

Hello,i am new to the forum and read through the topic on dishwashers....Yes... Surprisingly in Malaysia the usage is very limited...i have a fairly new dishwasher from a German brand called Brandt. It's performance is awesome just like Bosch as i have used it in the past.
Unfortunately I am selling it off as i am shifting from KL and it's hard to find a buyer.
Appreciate if anyone from this forum is interested to buy mine which is less than a year old .

May I know which model and how much you are willing to let go?

a customer asked me whether Foster Dishwasher is able to handle asian food? worried that the machine from italy is not suitable for asian use. So, rather than explaining, i recorded this video to test. curry, soya sauce and etc etc baked in the oven to dry, then cool down and only put in dishwasher.

Here is my honest test result, if you have any request you would like me to test and show u, u may PM me, i will try my best to share accurate info and video. Since i m using it, i can demo and explain better

Nice demo bro.

Italian pasta also oily oily, so if the machine from Italy, sure can work
Coz the soap cycle and rinse cycle is done at warm/hot temperature (depending on cycle setting) it will of course clean better than any hand wash, hand cannot tahan boiling temperatures

So conclusion dishwasher is gooding.

thanks all thanks to forumers give feedback, then i try my best to record video to show the products better

When buying a dishwasher, do consider the size and shape of the things u wanna wash in it. Some dishwashers are not asian friendly. As we do use bowls, some dishwashers only target to wash plates, making it hard to fit big bowls in the racks. Foster Dishwasher do not have this issue, i believe it is suitable for malaysia market.
