Third-party reviews

Based on 268 buyer reviews from online shops.
Reviews last updated: August 2026 · How we calculate this

What we like about Gorenje GI 520 E15X

  • Good value for money and reasonably priced
  • Cleans dishes effectively, even removing grease from older stains
  • Esthetically pleasing design that integrates well with other stainless steel or inox appliances
  • Practical 3-in-1 function that automatically detects and adjusts to different types of detergents
  • Self-cleaning filter helps prevent food residue from clogging the system

What we don't like about Gorenje GI 520 E15X

  • Interior build and materials feel cheap or lower quality
  • Height can occasionally be shorter than standard installation spaces, requiring extra adjustment or propping up during setup
  • Lacks advanced convenience features, such as a real-time progress display or a remaining program duration countdown
  • Program completion notice is minimal, relying only on a short audio beep indicator
  • The user manual can be unclear or lack sufficient detail

Verdict

The Gorenje GI 520 E15X is a slim 45 cm semi-integrated dishwasher with capacity for nine place settings. It offers five programmes, including a one-hour 60°C cycle, uses 9 litres of water per Eco cycle, detects 3-in-1 detergent automatically, and includes a self-cleaning filter and Total AquaStop leak protection. Its strengths are compact dimensions, efficient water use, and useful safety features. Drawbacks include its Class E energy rating, 47 dB noise level, a standard asynchronous rather than inverter motor, and no automatic door opening at the end of a cycle.
