What we like about Hotpoint H2FHL626UK

  • Excellent cleaning performance that leaves dishes sparkling and smear-free.
  • Very quiet operation thanks to the inverter motor.
  • Generous 14-place setting capacity ideal for families.
  • Flexible loading with a height-adjustable top basket.
  • Convenient 28 to 30-minute quick/rapid wash cycle.
  • Economical water consumption using only 9.5 litres on eco mode.
  • Helpful half-load option to save energy and water.

What we don't like about Hotpoint H2FHL626UK

  • Standard wash programs can take a long time, often over two hours.
  • The control/program panel is small and awkwardly positioned.
  • No time remaining indicator light on certain sub-versions.
  • E energy efficiency rating is relatively low compared to premium models.
  • Drying performance is only C-rated, occasionally leaving items damp.

Verdict

The Hotpoint H2FHL626UK is a 60 cm freestanding dishwasher with capacity for 14 place settings, water use of 9.5 litres per Eco cycle, 46 dB operation, and a Class E energy rating.
