Summary of the review

Third-party reviews

Based on 121 buyer reviews from online shops.
Reviews last updated: August 2026 · How we calculate this

What we like about Hisense HV16C

  • Large 16 place settings capacity with excellent use of interior space
  • Operates very quietly at 43 dB
  • Auto-open door feature helps vent steam and improves drying performance
  • Flexible and customizable layout including a third/removable cutlery tray
  • Good value for money offering a solid balance between price and quality
  • Cleans dishes effectively without requiring pre-rinsing

What we don't like about Hisense HV16C

  • Drying performance can be inconsistent, occasionally leaving items needing to be hand-dried
  • Racks and internal components can feel slightly flimsy compared to premium brands
  • Integrated door hinges can feel overly stiff or hard to keep fully open during loading
  • Difficulty obtaining replacement parts or accessing immediate customer support if issues arise

Verdict

The Hisense HV16C is a 60cm fully integrated, built-in dishwasher offering an impressive capacity of 16 place settings across an organized three-level wash system with a flexible third cutlery tray. Operating efficiently with a European Class C energy rating, it consumes 10.9 litres of water and 0.76 kWh per Eco cycle while featuring an intuitive touch control panel and 6 wash programs, including a rapid 15-minute Fast Cleaning option and a dedicated crystal cycle. Its primary advantages include a spacious, customizable layout, 43dB quiet operation, and an AutoDry feature that automatically opens the door at the end of a cycle to release steam and enhance drying performance. On the downside, this model lacks Wi-Fi smart connectivity capabilities and does not feature advanced automated liquid detergent auto-dosing.
