Verdict

The NEFF S147ZCS35E is a 60 cm partially integrated built-in dishwasher offering a 14 place setting capacity and an energy efficiency rating of Class C. It features 8 wash programs, including an intensive Chef 70°C cycle for stubborn stains, a Flex 2 basket system with a 3-stage RackMatic height-adjustable upper basket, and a Flex Cutlery drawer. Main pros include its advanced Zeolith mineral drying technology, WiFi connectivity via the Home Connect app, a highly effective AquaStop flood-protection system, and a remarkably quiet 40 dB operating noise level. On the downside, it lacks a floor-projected time light due to its visible front control panel, and the Eco 50°C cycle has a relatively long running time.
