Is a dishwasher for 2 people needed and how to choose one?

Recently, more and more often the question arises: is it worth buying a dishwasher in the house? In the case of a large family, the decision is quite easy. The decision to purchase such a unit is more difficult for a family of 2 people. It is worth figuring out why there is a dishwasher in the apartment and how to choose the right device.

The modern world is a world of technologies aimed at improving people's lives. The main task of the dishwasher is to make life easier and give apartment owners the opportunity to go about their business.

The peculiarity of the dishwasher is that it contains a lot of dishes, which allows you to forget what it is like to stand near the sink. In this case, the unit independently:

• wash the dishes;
• cleanse it to a shine;
• dry up.

In addition, most modern models automatically shut off after the cycle is complete. Of course, a family of 2 does not spend so much dishes per day to talk about purchasing a dishwasher.

Today, manufacturers produce a huge number of dishwashers. The market for such devices is becoming wider every year. Companies regularly improve existing equipment and produce new models.

It is worth considering in more detail the popular classifications of dishwashers.

All dishwashers can be divided into several groups.

• Fully recessed... Ideal for almost any interior. The appliances can be easily hidden behind a decorative furniture panel, which will preserve the attractiveness of the design of the room. The machine control panel is located at the top of the door. In modern models, the menu is projected onto the floor.

• Partially recessed. The difference from the first group is in the location of the control panel, which is located on the front of the door.

• Freestanding... Such machines cannot be hidden, but the device can be easily installed in any corner of the kitchen, which will make its operation convenient. It is only important to first make sure that the unit fits into the chosen interior.

• Tabletop... Option for small kitchens. These machines are compact in size, so they are also suitable for a family of 2 people.

A dishwasher is a useful device if you choose the right choice.

If you divide the devices for washing dishes by size, then you can form several groups.

1. Standard... Full-size devices, the dimensions of which are 60x60x85 cm. The maximum number of sets of dishes that the machine can wash at a time reaches 12-14 pieces. A good option for large families.
2. Narrow... Designed for installation in small kitchens where almost every square meter of space is occupied. The height of the devices is standard, but the width is 45 cm. It is easy to guess that the number of washing kits is reduced by 1.5 times. These models are suitable for families with one child.
3. Compact... The dimensions of such devices are 45x55x45 cm. An ideal solution for a family of 2 people. The capacity of the compact machine is 4-6 sets of dishes.
