Beko BDFN36550PFG review - Dishwashers - Which.co.uk

Third-party reviews

What we like about Beko BDFN36550PFG

  • Excellent cleaning performance powered by the PowerIntense 4-spray arm system
  • Fast45 programme efficiently washes and dries a full load in just 45 minutes
  • Generous 15 place setting capacity that accommodates large family-sized loads
  • Quiet operation running at 42dB with a specialized SilentWash mode
  • SelfDry technology automatically opens the door at the end of cycles to improve airflow
  • Flexible third rack and height-adjustable upper basket maximize space for awkward items
  • Energy and water efficient performance with low eco-cycle consumption

What we don't like about Beko BDFN36550PFG

  • Accompanying user manuals and setup instructions can be confusing or vague
  • Tupperware and plastics may require manual drying as they do not retain heat well
  • Close spacing between the lower basket tines makes loading thick or large plates difficult
  • App connectivity via HomeWhiz is considered poorly optimized by some users

Verdict

The Beko BDFN36550PFG is a freestanding full-size dishwasher featuring a 15-place setting capacity, an efficient Class B energy rating, 11 wash programs, and 5 temperature settings. Its primary characteristics and pros include the PowerIntense four-spray arm system for targeted heavy-duty cleaning, a highly flexible interior with a 3-position adjustable upper basket and a Flexible Third Rack, and convenient time-saving options like the Fast45 cycle which washes and dries a full load in 45 minutes. It operates quietly at a 42 dB noise level and leverages a SelfDry automatic door-opening mechanism to naturally maximize drying efficiency. However, potential drawbacks include a long Eco wash cycle duration of 4 hours and 1 minute, the lack of a dedicated delicate wash cycle, and an adjustable water softener feature that is not available.
