What we like about Gorenje GS520E15W

  • Very quiet operation, suitable for night-time use
  • Excellent value for money and affordable pricing
  • Cleans and dries dishes effectively, meeting its stated function
  • Saves time and is convenient for daily use
  • Compact footprint, making it ideal for smaller kitchens or small families
  • Easy and quick installation with straightforward controls
  • Equipped with a useful hot water connection option to reduce cycle times

What we don't like about Gorenje GS520E15W

  • Limited capacity for large items, making it difficult to wash multiple large pots simultaneously
  • Initial difficulties with the arrangement and configuration of the internal shelves
  • The installation and user instruction manuals can be confusing or unclear
  • Lack of individual temperature adjustment settings within specific washing programs
  • No integrated text display panel to indicate the explicit word 'END' at cycle completion

Verdict

The Gorenje GS520E15W is a slim 45 cm freestanding dishwasher measuring 44.8 x 60 x 84.5 cm, with capacity for nine place settings and a stainless-steel tub. It uses 9 litres of water per Eco cycle and offers five programmes, automatic 3-in-1 detergent recognition, a height-adjustable upper basket, hot-water connection up to 60°C, and Total AquaStop protection. Its compact design and low water use are key strengths. Drawbacks include its Class E rating, 47 dB noise level, and no digital remaining-time display.
