The kitchen is an especially important room in a person’s house. People spend a lot of time in the kitchen, either cooking, eating or doing the dishes. The truth is that no one likes doing the dishes because it’s a time consuming chore that can be replaced by a machine easily. Dishwashers date back to the 1850’s and since then their designs, sizes and functionalities have been improved. It’s a home appliance that has become vital for any family, especially for the big ones. If you have a tiny kitchen, don’t worry; as mentioned before, dishwashers come in many sizes and you can find one to fit your tiny kitchen too.
Slimline dishwashers
Slimline dishwashers measure 18 inches in width, 6 inches less than the standard dishwashers. Of course, they have a lower capacity than the standard models but for a tiny kitchen that doesn’t have much space it’s the ideal fit and it can handle enough dishes to keep you happy and away from the sink.
The Gorenje Slimline GV51010 is ideal for small households or for the ones with limited space in the kitchen. This model uses just 3.5 gallons of water per load, meaning it won’t take forever for it to fill. Some of the key features and benefits of this model are the AquaStop technology that stops leaks, the seven programs and four washing temperatures and many other useful features that make it worth every penny.
Countertop dishwashers
Countertop dishwashers are the best when it comes to getting the most out of a small package. They are the smallest dishwashers, being typically only 17 inches tall. They are placed on a kitchen work surface and fit nicely under overhead cabinets. They are the most space effective choice and are ideal for small families. This type of dishwasher can clean a whole load of dishes with only 2 gallons of water; this is a lot less water consumption than if you were to wash the dishes manually.
The Sunpentown SD-2201S countertop dishwasher is a perfect example of a countertop dishwasher that fits well in small sized kitchens. It’s only 17.24 inches in height which makes it fit between most countertop and cabinetry. The cavity is spacious loading up to six standard place settings and it connects quickly to any faucet to eliminate the need for permanent installation or direct plumbing. At the price of about $220 it’s a good choice for all tiny kitchens, being affordable and fitting perfectly.
