Third-party reviews

What we like about Samsung DW60CG880UB1EG

  • Excellent Energy Efficiency: Rated in Class A, consuming only around 49 kWh per 100 cycles.
  • Very Low Water Consumption: The Eco mode uses as little as 7.9 to 8 liters of water per cycle.
  • Quiet Operation: Operates at a low noise level of 43 dB, with an Extra Quiet program option dropping to 41 dB.
  • Thorough Cleaning System: Features WaterJet Clean technology with dual rotating wash arms for multi-angle dirt removal.
  • Automatic Door Opening: The door automatically opens slightly at the end of the cycle to let steam escape and maximize air drying.
  • Smart Connectivity: Integrates smoothly with the Samsung SmartThings app for remote monitoring, scheduling, and power tracking.
  • Generous Capacity: Provides flexible loading space for up to 14 place settings, including an adjustable rack and dedicated cutlery tray.

What we don't like about Samsung DW60CG880UB1EG

  • Imperfect Large Utensil Drying: Some users report that large tablespoons or deeply curved items do not always dry completely.
  • App Over-Reliance: Critical energy statistics and advanced cycle options require setting up and using the companion smartphone app.
  • Rack Height Limitations: Fitting taller or oversized dinner plates can occasionally block the rotating arms if not angled carefully.

Verdict

The Samsung DW60CG880UB1EG is a 60 cm built-under dishwasher featuring a 14 place setting capacity, a premium black finish, internal lighting, and a dedicated cutlery drawer. It is highly efficient with an EU Class A energy rating, consuming just 7.9 litres of water and 0.49 kWh of electricity per standard eco-cycle, while operating at a quiet 43 dB noise level. Key pros include the powerful WaterJet Clean dual-reverse rotating spray arms for multi-angle cleaning, SmartThings Wi-Fi connectivity with an AI Energy Mode for usage monitoring, and an AutoOpen door mechanism that releases steam for enhanced drying. On the downside, the comprehensive Eco cycle has a notably long runtime of 5 hours and 14 minutes, and the touch-control panel can occasionally become unresponsive or act erratically if exposed to excessive moisture or condensation.
