Third-party reviews

What we like about NEFF S255ECX11E

  • Extremely quiet operation at just 44dB
  • Convenient TimeLight floor projection showing the remaining cycle time
  • Highly efficient cleaning with the dedicated Chef 70°C program for stubborn food stains
  • Smart Home Connect app integration for effortless remote smartphone control
  • Highly flexible loading options due to the Flex 2 basket system and third cutlery drawer
  • Useful VarioSpeed Plus acceleration function that reduces cycle times by up to two-thirds
  • Reliable German manufacturing build quality

What we don't like about NEFF S255ECX11E

  • Only a moderate C energy efficiency rating
  • Standard Eco program takes a long time to complete a cycle
  • Using the speed-acceleration functions increases overall water and energy consumption

Verdict

The NEFF S255ECX11E is a fully integrated, 60cm XXL built-in dishwasher offering a 13-place setting capacity, an energy efficiency rating of Class C, and a quiet 44 dB noise level. Key features include the Flex 2 basket system with a height-adjustable Rack Matic upper basket and dedicated cutlery drawer, a TimeLight floor projection to track cycle progress, and Home Connect Wi-Fi connectivity for remote control. Major advantages include the efficient Open Dry automatic door opening mechanism, the powerful Chef 70°C intensive wash zone for removing stubborn residues, and AquaStop water damage protection. Potential drawbacks include a long 275-minute standard Eco cycle duration and the lack of a top-tier Class A energy rating.
