COOKOLOGY COUNTERTOP DISHWASHER UNBOXING, SET UP with KITCHEN TAP & INITIAL IMPRESSIONS.

OMG your reactions were sooo hilarious 😂 ... and it's exactly how I'd be in your situation. Thank you for one of the most authentic reviews I've ever watch. Cheers from Australia 🐨🐾

[@PlanetImo]

😆 I got so stressed out making this!! And it turned out my tap DID have a screw end - after several blast-offs of that rubbery bulb thing it eventually worked itself lose and revealed itself. I had the thing properly plumbed in within a few weeks. Thanks so much for watching 😃

[@MrCmt1989]

This video literally saved the day , I recently bought a counter top dishwasher and had the same issues with connecting it to the tap , this idea is amazing . I've done the same and now have a working dishwasher after buying loads of different attachments for the tap that just wouldn't fit . 😊 Thank you

[@MacyJadeHall]

Where did you get the tap adapter please?

[@VortexMotiveVision]

This is proper youtube. Thanks! My one is being delivered tomorrow! Looking forward to setting it up!

[@jtate333]

Well done on your perseverance! I had a plumber install my table top dishwasher and never had to put that item on my tap ever so none of that screwing anything to my tap, I just plugged in and it worked, it must be all set up behind my dishwasher so no need for the annoying tap things coming off. If you don’t have the space for a full dishwasher and dislike washing dishes as I do then you will adore these sizes of dishwasher, great for one person or max two. Love mine, on my second one and wouldn’t be without it, also being on worktop you don’t have to bend down to load and unload, another plus.

[@suvannamanibunting3842]

I was looking into getting a tabletop dishwasher and things started to get rather serious. Then I found your wonderful video and you’ve made my day …. thanks 😄

i just got the 8 place baridi dishwasher. it is similar to yours. i tried a screw in tap adapter and it just kept leaking everywhere so i decided to plumb it in like the washing machine. i had to cut a hole in the worktop but it works great now with no leaks. it is also looks nicer than havig pipes all over the place.It is my first ever dishwasher and my emotions during the setup process were identical to yours.

[@leeoconnor123]

i'm addicted to watching your channel now, just started home ed for my 13 yr old eczema and allergy daughter..and although i have a rather big dishwasher, we never use it, however, i find i'm supporting daughter with lessons etc until 3, then doing planning, researching etc until about 11pm together with my own stuff..i'd rather have a table top dishwasher too..plus your video reminded me of the time when my husband was away, i wanted a clothes airer up in the garden, well i bought a large one as we have 3 adulst and 1 child in the house..i bought such a big airer that i couldn't fit it in the car properly, then, i dug out a hole and got my instant cement mixed up, digging hole took 30 mins of hard work..when i placed the spike in, i hadn't realised how quick, quick cement mix was!!! so i ended up having to dig another hole, but had a full on fight with myself in my garden to get the spike back out first, i had a massive tantrum in the garden that my mother and daughter retreated back inside the house. Plus we now live with a wonky lopsided clothes airer because i still didn't get the hang of using quick cement and i wasn't going to fight digging a third hole!! Honestly, there's always a story to laugh about with my DIY adventures, like the time i tried to put up a shower curtain and ended up with a hole that went right through from bathroom to living room.

[@PlanetImo]

🤣 Your DIY adventures sound hilarious! I remember when I first started home-edding I would be planning til 11 every night too, but as time went on I kind of just got into a habit and pattern and didn't seem to need to do as much planning. I guess also probably because we eventually went the online/correspondence course route for key stage 4 which didn't involve as much planning. Good luck with it - I hope you enjoy it as much as we did and thanks so much for watching. :¬)

I know I shouldn't I found your Video whilst research a replacement for my Hotpoint, Disaster. And I never laughed so much. Nearly as wet as I got disconnecting the old Hotpoint one, because the Valve had given up the ghost and then found the water stop tap was snapped and the other one was 8 metre's away from the Flat. You may have sold a Dishwasher for them, just based on your fun video, its going to be in my head for months. Might have to watch a few more times lol

Hi, great vid! Do you know what parts your plumber used to connect it in the end? I’m having a struggle with this myself

[@MrHarvenator]

i can explain why everything is wet. The majority of people don't know how to read boxes. If you pause the video at 0:09 you will see two arrows pointing up, this means 'this side up! the second symbol the umbrella means leakage can occur if not opened correctly. I hope more people will inspect their boxes first from the outside it is such a waste if the appliance needs to be refunded and returned. Overall it was a very nice unboxing, done with great enthusiasm!

Due to space saving i have a washing machine outside under a gazebo and it has the same cold water in fitting. I jerry rigged it pretty much same as you did and it works fine, but i do turn off the outside tape when its not in use so its not under pressure, and its outside so if it did drip or squirt its no big deal. Nice video, informative, as im after a dishwasher! btw, what a job every time you want to use your machine, that rubber tap connector....no way i woud put up with that.

[@charmainelewis25]

Everytime you need the tap do you have to remove the attachment? How does the dishwasher know when it’s full and how does the tap turn urself off as it’s in the on position manually? Thanks

[@PlanetImo]

Hiya! Yes, it was awkward having to take it on and off the tap. The dishwasher seemed to know when to stop drawing the water. The tap remained switched on, but water was prevented from coming out while the attachment was on. I quickly got fed up with the tap-method and had it plumbed in. My bulb thing wasn't very good. You should be able to use a screw attachment which hopefully wouldn't fly off a squirt the ceiling! :) I still use this dishwasher and LOVE it :) Thanks for watching.

[@Nite-owl]

You've convinced me that buying one with its own reservoir tank is the better way to go 😂

[@PlanetImo]

😆 I got mine probably plumbed in within a few weeks - I didn’t enjoy the tap and sink arrangement at all - especially as it ties up your kitchen tap. You don’t realise how much you use you tap until it’s plugged into a machine and inaccessible 😆

[@SuzanneWho]

My countertop dishwasher has a quick connect piece for the faucet. Really simple and just clicks on when needed.

[@PlanetImo]

Sounds fabulous! I quickly got mine plumbed in within about a fortnight - I couldn't cope with the stress of my cobbled together rubber bulb set-up flying off the tap mid-cycle! 😆

[@SuzanneWho]

@@PlanetImo I would love it if mine was plumbed in but I have an old full size dishwasher (defunct) that’s tied in to a garbage disposal (also defunct) so I would have to rip out a lot of stuff to get it done. Have you seen the little dishwashers that don’t have to be connected at all? You just pour in water from a pitcher and the unit heats it up as it works. It’s small but great for tiny houses/campers. I love all the new stuff that’s being designed. BTW,, forgot to say your video was great. 😁👍❤️

Please would you share a link for that thing you used to connect the tap to the dishwasher? Mine does not have a screw, its just like yours.

[@PlanetImo]

I actually got it from the gardening section in Wilko - sadly now closed down. I would double check your tap though - I was absolutely convinced mine didn’t have a screw thread but it actually did - it was just so tightly on I couldn’t detect it. I gather they generally do have them so it’s worth checking.

[@RealDrHoneybear]

M Nice honest vid. Cute too. What size diameter are the plates that don't fit in well please.

[@PlanetImo]

25cm. They’ll go in if you lean them over quite a bit, but it’s not the most space efficient. Thanks so much for watching 😃

[@SuzanneWho]

Just a FYI. You need to spin the spray arm(s) before you start to make sure there is nothing dropping below the main rack. Some of my square appetizer plates tend to shift and a corner will drop down and impede the arm. 😎

[@PlanetImo]

Ah yes - I know what you mean! I'm always getting caught out. Thanks :)

[@michaelkeys92]

I bought a Cookology tabletop dishwasher in 2020 which has been really good, however it’s not working anymore so I’m wondering if I should replace it with this one which is a bit bigger. Have you had any problems with this one since you bought it?

Oh I love it. I've had no problems at all, other than having to lean the 25cm diameter plates over slightly to fit them in. That's not a problem though and is perfectly doable. Thanks so much for watching.

I've just ordered one - would be grateful for any comments about longevity, reliability etc. As an example, I saw one comment on Amazon about the dish tray going rusty (not a major issue to be fair, my 7 year old Indesit that recently died showed the same rusting problem). I given up using salt and rinse aid on my old machine since most modern detergents have that function built in.

I'm just now watching your vid, is it possible for you to tell me what the times are and also what each setting is supposed to clean please? I can't find anywhere online that tells you the times of each setting, and also how much each setting cleans the items. I put some things in on the p4 setting but I'm presuming because it is a picture of a glass that setting is just for glasses. Hence why my things were still slightly dirty when I took them out!

[@PlanetImo]

Hi Becca. Thanks for watching! I only ever use program 6, which is the 30 minute one. It doesn't dry so I just open the door and pull out the rack to let it air dry for a while before putting away. I've had a look in the operating instructions and although it doesn't say which cycle is what number I am deducing they are in numerical order and are as follows: 1 - Intensive 140 mins 2 - Normal 120 mins 3 - ECO 180 mins 4 - Glass 75 mins 5 - 90 Minute - well, 90 mins! 6 - Rapid - 30 mins 7 - Self-cleaning - 80 minutes. I find I can't put really soiled items in it - they need a rinse off under the tap first, preferably straight after use, otherwise they also need a soak. But usually that way everything comes out clean enough, and if not, it's been soaked during the cycle so a quick wipe with a cloth and rinse sorts it out. I hope that was helpful! Imo x

[@beccataylor3486]

@@PlanetImo aw that's so nice of you, thanks so much for this info! I got mine second hand for a reeeeeally good price so I couldn't pass on it! But no manual came with it hence the question! But thank you so much for being so kind and replying. This is sooo helpful! X

Thanks, Stephanie. That's a good idea.

[@daviniarobbins9298]

I have the 8 place version of this dishwasher(didn't really need such a big dishwasher but I find the extra basket shelf helps a lot to cram in more stuff). I live in a soft water area so even though I put salt in the tank it doesn't really need it. I also reduced the salt water setting down to the lowest it can go and the rinse aid down to one because the Finish Quantum ultimate pouches have rinse aid in them too. I forgot to do that first wash and everything had so much residue on them.

[@daviniarobbins9298]

With the bigger washer I can cram in some pots and pans in there as well as loads of dishes. Milk pan fits in the top shelf next to the knives and forks, spoons. Even washed fruit in it once.

I got mine from the hosepipe section in Wilko but it really wasn’t the best one for the job and as you probably saw from the video, I had to chop a bit off it and do a bit of a botch job with it.

Imo and her plumbing instructions, using a hacksaw and gas stove. 😂 Watching you hook up the water hoses, has me on the edge of my seat.. haha I"m sitting here laughing... hubby asks what's so funny... I say if you ever need to weight something down, attach it to a mug of water.. lol Lmaoooooo... drip, drip, drip... yup... it hit the ceiling.. hahaha That's a lot of force behind the adapter coming off the faucet. Am wondering if that line around the faucet towards the bottom actually does come off to allow the screen inside to be cleaned out with built up minerals and allows for an attachement to be screwed to it for the d/w. The plumber will get that figured out. Best to sit back and wait for him.. ha

Thank you for the video! I bought a cookology tabletop dishwasher and trying to connect to the kitchen tap. I am also living in Leeds, so that would be great if you can give the local shops name thay sells the pipe😅

[@PlanetImo]

Ahhh yes... the connector... I got it from the hosepipe section in Wilko, but I didn't want to draw too much attention to it as I don't advise anyone to get that one as it kept blasting off the tap and squirting water on the ceiling, plus I'd had to cut it and adapt it, as it wasn't the right pipe, as you might have seen if you watched the whole video. Also - your tap SHOULD have a screw end, if you unscrew the tip off it. I was convinced mine didn't have it, but eventually, after that rubbery bulb blasted off a few times, it worked itself loose - so I should have got a screw one. I didn't find it at all clear from the manufacturer's website or instructions what that pipe was. I soon got it properly plumbed in and it was so worth it! Thanks so much for watching. x

Where did you get the black adaptor thingy from, pease

[@PlanetImo]

Well I did get it from Wilko, but you’re definitely best off with one with a screw fitting on the end - as you might have noticed- mine kept blasting off. 😆 Thanks so much for watching. Oh and I got it plumbed in properly within a few weeks.

[@JoeKaton]

Interesting. I don't think I've heard of dishwasher salt before. Soap and rinse aid I get. But hey! Look at you all fancy.

[@PlanetImo]

Apparently it's for hard water. I bet I didn't need any... I have very soft water here.

[@HelHan-u1n]

I watched ur vedio ladt year and i came back to see it again and still laughing about it.. I still think it is tomuch work for small dish washer

[@candykiahx]

Did you get it plumbed in afterward? I’ve just purchased one so looking at cost etc 😇

[@PlanetImo]

I did! Yes! It's much, much easier to use with it plumbed in. Thanks for watching. I still love this dishwasher and it's been great as long as I don't accidentally obstruct the rotating part.

[@WillKalili]

My top cabinets are only 17 inches apart from the countertop. Would this fit?

[@whoisme678]

Hmmmm , how long would it have taken you to wash up ?.

[@WormsEyeView]

Oh the fun I could have eith the box!!!

[@PlanetImo]

I know! What a shame I couldn’t give it to you. There were lots of fun packaging items.

From where can I get this black connector to the faucet before I throw out my dishwasher machine!!!

[@PlanetImo]

Well, I bought it from Wilko gardening section, as it’s meant for hosepipes really. It’s not the best choice as you may have seen from the video as for a start, I had to adapt it to get it to fit plus it kept flying off the tap and even spraying the ceiling with water. I got mine properly plumbed in within a few weeks as I found the tap adapter stressful. 😆 but check to see if you have a screw end on your tap - because a screw one would be so much more secure. I was sure I didn’t have one on mine, but it turned out that I DID all along, so a screw adapter would have been much better. Good luck!

[@elaineysays]

Also try the Rolson one, it is very adaptable

[@SuzanneWho]

@@PlanetImo That’s what I have - the screw in adaptor. It stays on my tap all the time I just have to click onto it with the quick connect section on the hose. I love mine, have had it for a couple of years. 😎. Most older faucets have a threaded end - it may have a collar on it but you just have to unscrew the collar to access the threaded part. 👍😁

[@MissKitty87]

Do you leave the tap on for the whole cycle?

[@PlanetImo]

Yes, apparently so.

[@PlanetImo]

Thanks so much Lisa - I had wondered the same thing! But I checked with a plumber about it.

[@robinsweetcal6405]

I have a countertop dishwasher I love mine is absolutely wonderful here in the in California

[@PlanetImo]

Oh fab! :¬)

[@jocelynwright9927]

How’s the dishwasher going still?

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

I had never heard of a countertop dishwasher, and I certainly hadn’t heard of dishwasher SALT! This is all crazy!

[@PlanetImo]

Apparently it's for hard water. I have softwater here, so my mum doesn't think I needed it.

[@WormsEyeView]

Lol. I did the same thing with a pressure washer and my bathroom tap! 🤣🤣

[@PlanetImo]

You didn’t vlog it did you?

[@ciesheila]

She sounds like Bridget Jones prepping her famous Blue soup!

[@daviniarobbins9298]

Wetness is nothing to be worried about. All dishwashers are quickly tested before they are shipped out to a customer. It is perfectly normal to open the door and find the insides all wet.

[@PlanetImo]

Ahh that's good to know! Thanks. :¬)
