I have a Baumatic one which is very much at the cheaper end of the scale (it's this or something very similar https://appliancepeople.co.uk/products/baumatic-bi6e4lb-80-92408 ) which for the past 3 years has been absolutely fine at washing a load of stuff each night on the 30 minute cycle. The top shelf comes out so you can stick a highchair or a barbecue grill in there which is occasionally useful.
It's got a slightly annoying design where you have to clean a bit of gunk from under the door seal every month or two but other than that I'm not sure what else you really want from a dishwasher to justify the extra price.

I'd avoid Bosch, I have one (six series) and think it's a bit disappointing - wish I'd stuck to my guns and insisted on Miele but stock levels when we bought it were rubbish so I couldn't find one.

£800 should be able to get you something pretty bling. Can't remember what we paid for our non-integrated one but it was comfortably sub £200 and it's been pretty much faultless for 7 years.

When I was searching before....
From a well know consumer website....
Budget = Beko DIS16R10
Integrated = Bosch SMV6ZCX01G
On here Integrated = Miele G5260 SC
On here Freestanding = Miele G 5223 SC
Energy efficient = Bosch SMS4HCW40G
Slimline = Bosch SPS4HMW53GOur Bosch one is fine except for not being that dry, and importantly it can't take our wine glasses without lowering the basket to a level which won't fit our plates! Wtf!
It replaced a 20yo Miele. I've got to say, if I were planning on staying in a place I'd definitely go Miele based on the strength of our old one. If seals weren't £150 all in and we weren't having a new floor we'd have kept it.
If we didn't need a hard to come by semi integrated, I'd have been very, very tempted by a 2nd hand relatively modern Miele.

This is the one we're getting soon. Main criteria being not terrible energy rating and has a cutlery tray at the top

Do you really want to spend £800 on a dishwasher?

We’re looking for an integrated dishwasher, neither of us has owned or bought one before…
Budget under £800, what should we be looking for? Auto door opening? Noise levels? Brand? No idea…
