Reviews last updated: August 2026 · How we calculate this

What we like about Smeg LSP292DN

  • Efficient cleaning performance delivered by the unique Orbital Wash System's dual rotating spray arms
  • Generous 13 place settings load capacity suitable for standard households
  • Enhanced leak protection from the Total Aqua Stop safety electronic monitoring system
  • Highly flexible loading configurations with a 3-level height-adjustable upper basket
  • Improved drying efficiency with Dry Assist automatic door opening and specialized blue anti-drip lower inserts
  • Sleek and appealing minimalist aesthetic design that fits seamlessly into modern kitchens
  • Practical daily usage features like a half-load option and a 3-6-9 hour delay start function

What we don't like about Smeg LSP292DN

  • Noticeable sound output with a 49 dB noise emission level during standard operational cycles
  • Long running duration on standard eco cycles, often taking over 4 hours to finish a single load
  • Mediocre cleaning thoroughness on rapid or quick-wash cycles, which struggle against dried-on foods or protein residues
  • Lower energy efficiency rating relative to modern competitors, categorized under European Class D
  • A generic brand reputation among some consumer reviews citing customer service response delays and high replacement part costs

Verdict

The Smeg LSP292DN is an 82 cm high, under-counter built-in dishwasher with a 60 cm width, featuring a 13 place setting capacity, a durable stainless steel tub, and a modern Inverter 2.0 motor. Key performance advantages include its efficient Orbital Wash System for uniform coverage, a Dry Assist+ feature that automatically opens the door at the cycle's end to improve natural condensation drying, 5 wash programs across 3 temperatures (50°C, 65°C, 70°C), a 3-level height-adjustable upper basket, and comprehensive Total Aqua Stop flood protection. On the downside, the appliance holds a modest Class D energy efficiency rating (consuming 84 kWh per 100 cycles and 12 liters of water per cycle) and has a relatively noticeable noise level of 49 dB.
