Advantages: low price and good all round quality

Disadvantages: long wash times

Great dishwasher for the price, very neat and clean looking with easy to use display. The IDL 40 is quiet and, considering it's slimline size, very spacious. The four settings are more than enough for any kind of clean, although the washing time can seem a little too long; the 'Time 4 You' setting alone takes over an hour, and the 'Eco' wash even longer. In spite of this, the dishwasher delivers great quality cleaning, although this is also dependent on which cleaning product you use with it. It is also very reliable and well manufactured, and as a professional plumber I found it very easy to install. I was also impressed by the quality of the unit as a whole for the relatively low price paid. One hiccup is that very occasionally the compartment door holding the cleaning tablet will fail to open and thus the dishes end up just getting washed in hot water. Also, the cups or dishes in the tray directly below the compartment tend to catch the falling cleaning tablet and prevent a proper wash. These are rare occurrences though, and all in all this is a fantastic dishwasher for the price.

Summary: Great for the price
