5 CYCLE WALK THROUGH - FARBERWARE COMPLETE PORTABLE COUNTERTOP DISHWASHER

[@jt1260]

Well done, Daniel! Actually the most helpful review -- either written or video -- I've seen for this product.

[@danielreviews6612]

Wow! Thank you so much! It’s comments like these that make me want to review everything in my house haha so happy to help!

[@willlee465]

Dude thank you! I just ordered one. It seems dumb, but I just can't stand doing dishes anymore.

[@danielreviews6612]

So happy to help man! Me too! Lol I only saw garbage videos on here not showing what I wanted to see for myself, so here I am trying to help! Lol

[@toastymcgee9788]

Right?! I'm with you. I sort of grew up with dish washers but since I've been out on my own, I haven't had one in years and I was just looking at my sink today and I"m like...."I'm done."

[@willlee465]

@@toastymcgee9788 hahaha absolutely. I ended up having to get rid of mine when my girlfriend moved in (needed counter space), but now my mother uses it as an outdoor bar dishwasher. This thing is versatile!

[@toastymcgee9788]

@@willlee465 I got one actually. I live in an apartment with a pretty small kitchen. It does take up half of my only counter space but frankly it's worth it. I'd trade the counter for not having to do dishes. The dish drying rack usually took up half the counter anyway. Good recommendation thanks! Love it so far.

[@xavierbreath2227]

Nothing dumb about that man. I got a portable clothes washing machine too. Works great.

[@brycelacker9757]

Thank you so much for posting these, my dishwasher just had the e4 code for the first time and I was so nervous before watching your video, everything seems good now!

Thanks for the video, Daniel. You have such a positive on-screen presence! Great work, keep it up mate.

[@danielreviews6612]

Thanks so much Colin! I really appreciate you reaching out and sharing that! I hope to be a help to folks in the future with more reviews! Thanks!

[@everlonging3207]

There are many similar countertop dishwashers that all appear identical but build quality will vary depending on manufacturer. I have a different one in Europe but found your review useful and it helped me decide to buy one, no regrets, they are great! Thank you Daniel :) I have cut in half a large strong empty plastic bottle of hand sanitiser, dug some holes at the bottom and it's providing an extra rack for cutlery. As a tip, I'm using an Ecover all-in-one tablet with rinse aid, as there is no rinse aid compartment; it cleans and dissolves perfectly and smells great too. The rinse aid will help with the residue on that saucepan lid and it seems to aid drying ;)

[@_Bwcs_YT]

I love this dish washer perfectly sized for a tiny house and I never have spots left on anything especially wine glasses

[@kristanottelling4578]

I’m sold! I’ve been searching for months and just uneasy about spending hundreds of dollars on anything.. I love the quality of the dishwasher and your down to earth, informative videos! Just one question... have you tried a skillet??? (Does one even fit in counter top dishwashers?!🤔)

[@danielreviews6612]

Thanks so much for reaching out Krista! Thats really cool to hear! Sorry I didn't get back to you earlier, your comment got flagged as spam and I didn't even see it until now. It would have to be a ridiculously small skillet, unfortunately. Sorry about that!

[@TheLawrenceWade]

Hey Daniel! That thing is teeny-tiny, perfect for an RV or someone with a really small kitchen. It was one of the models I was considering. I got myself a Danby DDW621WDB countertop machine, it's a little larger and it is every bit as capable as a modern full-sized dishwasher - it even takes my 6 quart Instant Pot with room to spare. Mine lives on the bottom shelf of a microwave oven cart beside my sink. Your Farberware looks ideal for someone who can't break their lease and attach a fill hose to the faucet aerator. My guess is you're going overkill with the Finish Powerball tabs. I found they work best in my machine if I use half a tab per cycle - less white streaks. I am on really soft water, so experiment for your situation. My machine also has a rinse aid dispenser and a detergent door, so it doesn't release detergent until the second wash. Still, it comes in at 13-15L per cycle which is less than half of what it would take to fill my sink to wash dishes by hand. Mine does not have an air refresh mode, I do have to pop open the door at the end of the cycle while the dishes are still hot enough for evaporation to take place. Your glass mode is for stemware like wine glasses and things like that - it is gentle, so it doesn't cloud up wine glasses (which don't usually get burned-on foods). Your bowl and lid could have been done on the Pots and Pans mode if your dishwasher has something equivalent. Corelle glass, like the plate in your first video, is also nearly indestructible. Congrats, man. I hate washing dishes too. :)

[@InLawsAttic]

I would use the steam always for sterilizing purpose. Also, I would leave door cracked open until completely dry, with or without dishes, to avoid sour water smell later. That lid looked half blocked from water spray, might have been the problem. Thanks, great review! Very helpful!

[@doloresleyva8810]

I use half a tab and rapid cycle every time. I am carefully scraping off any obvious big chunks of food but otherwise dishes just go right in. I can fit a 4 place dish setting and silverware in with no prob. Love this dishwasher is one of the best experiences!

[@cdnerin]

I've just watched 3 of your videos about this dishwasher -- thank you so much! My built-in blew a gasket and almost flooded by whole basement (I was running out the door to go to work when it blew -- and it wasn't even on!). I've been considering something like this for about a year because I no longer trust having something hooked up all the time, and I am sick of spending half my day off doing dishes! I really appreciated your thorough testing, and unboxing and showing all the parts. Thank you so much. I can't find this exact model anywhere but Danby has a couple of others that don't have the window in the door I will be looking at. (I'm in Canada, I checked Amazon & Wayfair, no dice, but Danby is a decent brand from what I understand). Thanks again -- I"m off to watch the one about the error code fixed. Take care & stay safe!

[@rebeccad812]

Thanks so much, Daniel. Because of your videos, I decided to buy this model (Oct 2021) and it's worked beautifully for my 1-person household. Instead of using the "dry" cycle, I just open up the door and slide out the tray of dishes, etc and let them air-dry overnight. For me, the rapid cycle works great 90% of the time and saves a bit on energy usage (vs. the full cycle). Now that you've had yours for a year or more, I wonder if you've run into any maintenance issues worth sharing with your fan base? Again, thanks for your help!

[@kimcoffee6862]

Hello I enjoyed your video your previous video about the portable dishwasher wanted you to know if you don't know that they also have portable washer and dryer some come together from come separate just wanted you to know that

[@happydays9613]

Great review. Can you please, please show how you need to connect it up if you are just filling it up using a jug. Thank you.

[@olenabyelkina709]

Thanks for this and your previous review. I had some hesitations regarding buying such a small dishwasher.

[@beloveddaughter8585]

Great reviews Daniel. Thank you. With your glass cycle, I believe it is only intended for drinking glasses and /or lightly soiled glasswear. The saucepan lid I would have put in with the pan itself or normal cycle. 😊Cheers

[@1234cheerful]

hello, good video, very clear explanation. Dog toys on the baby care cycle made me laugh. May I suggest you add a link in the description to the first video you did for this , and put a link to this one in that video's description, since you mention the first video in this one. This way people get the benefit of both videos. They should come up close together in the list but as time goes on that may change. You have a very congenial personality , people will react well to you!

[@danielreviews6612]

Wow! Thanks so much for the encouragement and advise! I will do that right now! Thank you! 😎😉

I'd like to hear it running.

[@kboy3000]

Thanks for the in depth review man. Can I use the inlet to funnel water from the faucet into the top hole/tank? I want to still use my faucet when this runs but i don't have enough space on top to pour water in.

[@Voltramotorscambodia]

I want to use on RV , how many KW use ? Max 1800 kw when eating the water ? Thank you for your answer 😉👍

[@bigLink777]

Just ordered one ... how easy is it to clean the food gunk filter

[@TheSokodelic]

Hey man. Great video! I do have a question and concern. I noticed that the temperature for the rapid wash only seemed to get up to 89 degrees. Is that accurate or did it get hotter? And whats rhe hottest it gets? My concern is that it may not get hot enough to sterilize and clean. Thanks again.

[@danielreviews6612]

Hey Thanks for reaching out! I believe it gets up to 140+ degrees. I've seen 158 degrees before, if that helps! I would definitely say that's hot enough to completely sterilize and clean. Hope that helps!

[@TheSokodelic]

@@danielreviews6612 Thanks man! Yes, it does.

[@TheSokodelic]

@@whenwherewhathow It was Fahrenheit, but the issue has since resolved to normal parameters.

[@Ana-fd2kx]

Hello Daniel, I'm thinking about buying one. I want to set it like yours, so the water flows to the sink like crazy or just softly? And also, is it heavy? Thank youuu :)

[@danielreviews6612]

Thanks so much for reaching out Ana! It's not to heavy for me, but even for a smaller person it's not too bad when it's empty. It SOFTLY flows through the hose into the sink with no splashing or craziness. You won't have to flinch or anything haha God bless my friend!

[@danielreviews6612]

[@California007]

Great video, thanks for the review. It looks great for dishes, but I'm trying to find out if it my pots would fit, do you mind confirming how many loads I'll need to run it for? 11.5” Diameter x 8.5” Height (I have 2 of those) 16” Diameter x 9” Height (Just one) 15” Wooden Spoon (Just one). Thanks so much.

[@danielreviews6612]

Since it is so compact, it can only clean "up to 12-inches in diameter at an angle" as their listing says. I wish it was slightly bigger in every direction for a few of my bigger pots but unfortunately I'm stuck scrubbing away on those. Hope this helps!

[@California007]

Thank you, that helps a lot.

[@PrettyFly4aWi-Fi]

Hey you the knack for reviews. you could be the next CrazyRussianHacker. Plz do more reviews. cheers :)

[@danielreviews6612]

Haha wow you are too kind! I really appreciate your support! I honestly didn’t think I would get any subscribers from doing a review channel since I would probably never sub to review channel. I didn’t really think people cared unless each video was about something they already wanted. Thanks for reaching out! God bless! 😀

[@matthewcraft1676]

hey daniel whys it 360p? are u rendering ur videos in 1080p?

[@danielreviews6612]

I can’t remember what that video was done in but I usually try to keep it in 1080p. Is that not even an option for you? Hmmm🤔

[@thephilosopher5799]

Just letting you know you should wipe/scrap and rinse your dishes right after you eat so when you put in the dishwasher it’s fully clean.

[@ludmillamalenkova7977]

Производитель не рекомендует ополаскивать посуду, потому что тогда машина плохо работает. Убирать надо только большие куски - например - кости.

[@deltahaze3662]

Does this dishwasher take dishwasher salt?

[@Ashley-xb1ij]

When I hit start on mine nothing happens. I don't know what's wrong

[@alexandriachandler4847]

I have this! The water reservoir is so messy! I pour water in it and and it gets everywhere! I see you removed the stupid plastic piece in it that causes it to splash all over....how did you do it?!?!

[@onequiawalindsey3753]

Does this dishwasher still work?

[@Miidaguy1]

Where is the screen that comes with the water intake?

[@Miidaguy1]

Also the pods are not recommended for smaller dish washers. As they are balanced with enough detergent etc for a regular size dishwasher. And therefore you get suds lock in this machine. ( Ever wonder why the top jet isn't moving ? Well that's the reason why my friends. ) All the soap is causing the motor to run harder than normal. And in the end, you end up with soap dried on to your dishes etc.

[@hhprogressiveconstruction1140]

Does it have a steam dry function cycle .

[@danielreviews6612]

Nope, unfortunately!

[@caelidhg6261]

Question.. does this machine HEAT the water for you? Or do you have to heat it yourself and pour it in?

[@shaftix7778]

It heats the water

[@danielreviews6612]

Correct! It does heat the water itself. I've found that only using hot water from the faucet to fill the tank gets the temperature up quicker, overall obviously. Hope that helps! God bless!

[@oscarbone1000]

My came yesterday.

[@MrColdKid]

Hey Daniel, I just purchased this machine how long does it take for the washer to start. After the start button is pressed, I've waited 10 minutes and it doesn't start am i doing something wrong?

[@danielreviews6612]

You may not have filled up the water to the very top where it beeps at you multiple times. That may be the cause. It may look like it’s topped off but it needs a little more to trip a sensor to activate the load. Let us know how it goes for you! God bless!

[@MrColdKid]

@@danielreviews6612 Hey Daniel I tried this I heard the beep and saw the water at the top. It didn't work seems like I got a dud machine. I let it run the entire time I see the water fill at the bottom for about 30 seconds. Then it stops and I see it releasing water from the hose periodically throughout the process. However, the jets never activate. If you have any other tip I would highly appreciate it. Godbless!

[@danielreviews6612]

Ok, I will look into it. I’m kind of at a loss as well. I will get back with you!

[@PrettyFly4aWi-Fi]

@@MrColdKid This should be covered in the manual. choose a setting & hit start. good luck :) I'm sure if you hook this up to your sink faucet you don't need too top up the tank. this way you can safely use your own hot water tap.

[@jacqueline143]

This one doesn't have to stay hooked to the faucet, correct? I can't imagine going hours without access to the sink while the dishwasher is running. I've been watching a lot of reviews on a bunch of different kinds of countertop dishwashers and it seems that most of them have to be hooked up the whole time.

[@danielreviews6612]

I will try to experiment and get back with you. Possibly make another video if people really need to see it. I only fill it up and have not connected it to the faucet yet, myself.

[@PrettyFly4aWi-Fi]

From what i understand is the faucet connection has a simple bypass so you can use the faucet for regular uses & or the dishwasher so no need to remove it.

[@johnstancliff7328]

Dan, so how has this dishwasher worked out for you so far? is it meeting you expectations?

[@danielreviews6612]

So far it has worked very well for me, despite me over clogging it with too much detergent blocks, like an idiot haha I’m still very pleased!

[@cc6334]

Hey Dan, where does the water drain out to? I’m dyslexic, so did I miss something, God Bless, wonder how you are going to let me know

[@danielreviews6612]

Hello Barbara! Thanks for the question! The back right corner has a port that you attach the grey hard plastic hose to with a clamp. That hose runs into your sink. If you watch my first video on this dishwasher, you can see what I'm talking about as I show how to install and set it up. Let me know if you have any more trouble! Thanks! God bless!

[@tofiqueelder2043]

[@danielreviews6612]

I’m getting the faucet video prepared this week! Thanks for your support! I hope I can be a help!

[@kathyfann]

I hear this one is the best because it creates steam and steam kills germs and some viruses so the Farberware when is the best

[@bannol1]

However, to put an entire dishwasher tablet in there seems complete overkill. I would probably use liquid or powder detergent so I can reduce the dosage to a more appropriate level.

[@danielreviews6612]

I think you're right! I believe I've had issues due to the overkill of the tablet being too much. I will be transitioning to liquid or powder soon to avoid having any issues with clogging, as I had recently.

[@angrychick9649]

I have this,its small,very heavy and almost as noisy as a full size. The water doesn't get very hot,tops off at 129 for the normal cycle. Takes forever,2 hrs,come on. As for rapid,your dishes better be pretty much clean

[@tenminutetokyo2643]

DOOD!

[@jyesucevitz]

Maybe I dont get. I'm a minimalist and I can't see not only not spending that money and I'm not taking 2hrs to one was one meals worth of dishes. What fully capable person is really not going to spend 5min washing dishes by hand and rather do 2hrs in that?

[@Carefree6714]

Jim dishwashers are much more sanitary- time & water saving too. This just uses a gallon of water per load.

[@Dubst3pT3ch]

I work a lot sometimes I only have enough time to microwave a meal and sleep or quick make cereal or oatmeal and run out the door in the morning. If I don't have time dishes build up. I also don't need sponges, dish soap, a drying towel and drying rack.

[@zodiark2456]

most people work and dont want to be doing dishes

[@Unibot47]

Mine won't even start. It makes some noise, I can hear the water a bit, and then nothing. Piece of shit doesn't even hold a lot of dishes. Waste of $400 fucking dollars. Ridiculous lol
