Whirlpool, a brand of home appliances, is no stranger to many of its high-quality household appliances have high sales, recently Whirlpool launched a Whirlpool Aurora dishwasher, so how about this dishwasher? Today we will review the specific dishwasher, interested partners come together to see it!
1、外观设计
General dishwasher on the market is mainly embedded / independent two styles, and we have this Whirlpool dishwasher is embedded, can directly see the internal structure of the dishwasher. Because it can be placed directly in the kitchen counter, and the cabinet into one, so that the whole kitchen more neat.
As you can see, the dishwasher has a relatively thick layer of acoustic cotton inside and a cushion layer on the metal to reduce the noise during operation. Of course, in order to facilitate the photo demonstration, we put a simple cabinet to the dishwasher to simulate the effect of kitchen cabinets.
The front of the dishwasher is a simple all-black glass panel, all black, only the handle and Logo is dazzling silver, the overall look of simplicity and generosity. Of course, the front panel can also be customized according to the cabinet design style, to customize the door style and material, to fit different home decorating style.
The operation buttons of the dishwasher are set on the top of the front panel, including power switch, 6th sense smart wash, daily wash, quick wash, energy saving 50 degrees, high temperature 70 degrees, specific cookware selection, special function selection and start/pause button. The 6th sense smart wash is a smart wash function that automatically detects the turbidity of the water and automatically adjusts the wash status according to the actual situation, solving the dishwashing problem with one click.
Because the button is on the top position, slightly open the panel can see and operate, no need to bend or squat, lower your head to operate, operation is also more convenient. These buttons are touch operation, because the surface is flat, not easy to hide dirt, daily cleaning to the dishwasher, only need to wipe with a rag can be.
The actual size of the dishwasher is 775mm (height) * 575mm (depth) * 598mm (width), 775mm body height can be adapted to the majority of Chinese kitchen countertop height, can be directly embedded in the cabinet below, into the environment.
2、Interior design
Open the door, the width of the dishwasher will increase by 58cm, because this door also plays the role of guide rails, to ensure that the panel can be completely pulled away or very important, so before buying, you need to pay attention to the home installation location, whether there is enough space to ensure that the dishwasher panel can be completely flat use.
Next, look at the dishwasher cavity, a total of three layers of baskets, through the flexible allocation of the position of dishes, can effectively use the internal space. The top basket can be used to place chopsticks, spoons and other small utensils, the upper basket can be used to place cups, rice bowls and other utensils, and the lower basket can be used to place pots and pans and other large items.
In the bottom basket, there are many additional independent small kits, such as Chinese dishwasher chopsticks basket and Western-style knife, fork and spoon washing basket, which can be flexibly used below the remaining space to facilitate the cleaning of chopsticks, spoons, knives and forks, such as smaller size of tableware.
There are also many small details on the basket, such as pinching the red buttons on both sides of the upper basket to adjust the height of the basket, giving the lower basket higher space for flexible washing of deeper pots and pans or vertical pot washing to improve the efficiency of internal space usage.
The lower basket can be placed in a special vertical pot rack when large dishes such as soup bowls and pots and pans are placed there, and the red bracket can be withdrawn to provide additional support for frying pans and pots.
Whirlpool dishwasher set has a total of four spray areas, including a fixed 26-hole spray arm PowerClean at the bottom of the inner cavity location, which is Whirlpool’s exclusive washing technology, which uses poly-flow increased direct spray technology to provide a greater force and more intensive water column, which can be more effective in cleaning large dishes such as pots and pans placed in front.
The main dishwashing is done by the center of three rotatable spray arms, one at the top and one at the top, and one below the upper basket, both two-way spray, to avoid the dishes below blocking the bottom spray arm cleaning.
After all, it is used to clean dishes, inevitably encounter the problem of food residue in the bowl, at the bottom of the dishwasher, there is a three-layer filter design, cleaning is also more convenient, the filter are snap form fixed, rotate to the appropriate location interface, you can take off the filter, clean up the filter residue.
In the middle of the panel, there is a large-capacity detergent compartment designed to hold a dishwashing block and 180ml of dishwashing detergent respectively. At the bottom of the inner compartment, there is a soft water salt compartment, which can soften the water and improve the cleaning effect.
3、Practical use
Whirlpool Aurora O’Nona dishwasher is officially advertised to support 15 sets of utensils, which is currently the only dishwasher that can achieve 15 sets of capacity under 775mm height. But the actual application, the real can accommodate how much tableware, here I also find dishes to test the actual.
The top chopsticks basket I believe it goes without saying that common spoons, knives and forks, chopsticks can be laid directly on top, the important thing is how much can be placed below the sliding bowl basket area.
The upper sliding bowl basket, without stacking, can be placed under 14 rice bowls (only so much) + 2 round plates + 4 mugs + 3 tall glasses.
The lower basket has more space and can be placed directly under the frying pan and stew pot, so the number of dishes placed will vary with the pots and pans. In the same non-stacking situation, when you put in the wok and stew pot, you can put down 10 round plates + 2 rice bowls + 1 long oval plate + 1 wok + 1 stew pot, as well as a number of knives, forks and chopsticks, there is still plenty of space underneath, and you can also put in other small plates.
When the stew pot and frying pan are not placed, a total of 8 round plates + 5 rice bowls + 4 long oval plates + 2 soup bowls + 2 mugs can be placed, as well as a number of knives, forks and chopsticks.
Overall, the Whirlpool O’Nona dishwasher seems to have plenty of space, and it is difficult to use all the internal space for the number of dishes you provide, enough to support the holiday dining needs of a family of six or seven.
4、Cleaning effect
As a dishwasher, the most important thing is of course the cleaning function, the cleaning effect is good or bad, directly affect the final experience of the dishwasher. So the next find, Lao Gan Ma, cooking oil, soy sauce, jam and other seasoning mixture, coated in the front and back of the dinner plate.
The test plate specifications were: 4 mugs + 3 tall glasses + 11 rice bowls + 6 round plates + 4 oval long plates + 2 soup bowls + several chopsticks, knives and forks. Because the placement, taking into account as far as possible not to let the dishes knock each other caused by breakage, especially the glass tall cup, so the placement of dishes or relatively sparse, which there are many gaps can then put dishes and chopsticks these small tableware.
In order to increase the difficulty of the test, tableware coated with these mixed seasonings and then left to stand for a day before the cleaning test. After a day of resting, dirt has been stuck in the dishes, using paper towels can not wipe clean, because the addition of jam and flour, dirt dry and very sticky. In this case, the cleaning is done again, and the cleaning mode is selected as the default normal mode.
After 1 and a half hours of cleaning, for these already sticky dirt on the bowl, the high temperature hot water can soften the dirt very well, under the high temperature and high pressure water rinse, the dirt on the dishes cleaned very clean, even the mugs and goblets measured inside the dirt, are cleaned very clean, as new.
结论
Cooking and cooking is a thing full of life, but washing dishes after a meal is a complete chore, not only is it troublesome to clean, but it also leaves hands covered in grease, which is very unpleasant. And Whirlpool Aurora O’Nona dishwasher can be a good solution to this problem. Because the height of the dishwasher can match the height of the kitchen counter, only need to empty the past kitchen cupboard position, basically can be embedded in it, the installation is also quite simple.
