  • At 55 dB it is loud enough to hear from the next room.

  • There is no half load option for small loads.
  • The top basket height cannot be adjusted.

Verdict

At 19.5 kg, the SPT SD-2225DSA is light enough to move when you clean behind it. It has a cutlery drawer and an A rating for washing, and each cycle uses 0.725 kWh. Six place settings keep it suited to small kitchens. The weak points are the noise and the water. At 55 dB it is loud enough to hear from the next room, and each cycle uses 10.8 L of water. The energy class is F, so it uses more power than the efficient machines. It also has no half load option and no height adjustable top basket, so a small load still runs the full cycle. It suits someone with a small kitchen who wants a simple, light machine and can live with the noise.
