Good machine/Aquastops pose problems
5/5
It washes well and on a sensible program of one hour. Compare to my old Bosch,the trays feel flimsy, but the internal layout is good and I like the cutlery tray instead of the old basket.
Good idea as the Aquastop may be, in practice, the "lump" on the water pipe is a problem, as it won't fit through any of the original holes in the cupboard. I felt it necessary to get a plumber to instal the machine, to advise on the best way of dealing with this. We opted for an extension pipe, which avoids re-plumbing the water pipe/stopcock, or making new holes, but creates another joint which might, in theory, leak and the aquastop is below it.
