I am using siemens make dishwasher for last 2 years. Having frustrating experience of maid servants decided to go for dishwasher. Its cleaning quality is just too good like kadhai's, plastic vessels etc. without any issue. It has room for 12 dinner plates, 12 soup plates, 12 tea cups and saucers, 12 dessert plates, 12 tumblers, 12 individual knives, forks, soup spoons, teaspoons and dessert spoons.
