Summary of the review

Third-party reviews

Based on 50 buyer reviews from online shops.
Reviews last updated: August 2026 · How we calculate this

What we like about Teka DW8 40 FI

  • Cleans dishes effectively, leaving them thoroughly cleaned
  • Quiet operation with a maximum noise level of 49 dBA
  • Compact 45cm width fits well into smaller kitchens and tight cabinetry
  • Includes a convenient 30-minute fast wash program
  • Features a half-load program that saves resources when not fully packed
  • Good overall build quality and reliable machine performance

What we don't like about Teka DW8 40 FI

  • Poor and unhelpful manufacturer customer service during installation
  • The integrated door hinges automatically shut the door if a heavy decorative wooden cabinet panel is not yet attached
  • Installation technicians refuse basic entry-level carpentry adjustments for kitchen matching
  • Delayed start timer options are limited compared to higher-end models, offering only fixed 3, 6, or 9-hour intervals

Verdict

The Teka DW8 40 FI is a 45 cm slimline, fully integrated dishwasher featuring a 9 place setting capacity, 5 washing programs, and 4 washing temperatures ranging from 45°C to 65°C. It offers high utility with pros such as an eco cycle, a 30-minute fast program, a full AquaStop safety system, a 3-6-9 hour delay start timer, and a height-adjustable upper basket, all while consuming 9.5 liters of water per cycle. However, its notable cons include a relatively loud maximum noise level of 49 dBA and the absence of a built-in status display screen on its electronic control panel.
