Third-party reviews

What we like about Candy CNF4A4S3PSX

  • High energy efficiency with Class A rating
  • Quiet operation at 44 dB thanks to the Inverter Speed-Drive motor
  • Spacious 14 place setting capacity with a large Maxi-Tub
  • Convenient third cutlery rack and premium glass/cup holders
  • Smart connectivity via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth using the hOn app
  • Effective intensive cleaning with the 6-jet Powerwash system for pots and pans
  • Automatic door opening (Smart Door) that enhances natural drying
  • Practical short cycles including a 35-minute Wash & Dry option

What we don't like about Candy CNF4A4S3PSX

  • Average overall cleaning performance relative to price in some consumer expert testing
  • Actual cycle times can be significantly longer than advertised when automatic door drying is active
  • Dishes can remain wet or require manual drying if the automatic door opening feature is turned off during rapid programs
  • Fixed rack elements limit loading flexibility for awkwardly shaped dishes
  • Inconsistent answers from manufacturer customer service regarding cycle length expectations

Verdict

The CANDY CNF4A4S3PSX is a 60 cm freestanding dishwasher offering a generous 14 place-setting capacity, a third basket for cutlery, and a spacious Maxi-Tub interior. Key specs include a highly efficient A-rating for energy, an ultra-quiet 44 dB noise level, a 9.5 L water consumption rate per cycle, and built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for smart control via the hOn app. Main pros include its versatile 10 wash programs, rapid 35-minute wash-and-dry cycle, automatic Smart Door opening, and Powerwash technology for heavily soiled items. Potential cons include a slightly lengthy 239-minute Eco cycle and the fact that the full user manual must be downloaded from the internet.
