EdgeStar Silver Portable Countertop Dishwasher

We have a bar downstairs, and wnted something that would not take up a lot of space, but would clean the glasses after we use them. It works great, and the option to do a quick clean is just what we needed.

Yes it does not have a drying cycle but using the rinse aid works great and there is not much left to dry because of the heating element when you open the door to vent. Drying cycles are overrated because you always have those nooks in the dinnerware that hold a bit of excess water that get spilled when you pull them out. The exterior finish is plastic but does look metalic silver unless you touch it (small window is neat to see the unit working). Also even though the product manual calls for a maximum drain height of 6" above the base of the unit, it will drain higher if necessary- mine is 12" above the base. It is a pretty tough unit since it had a nice dent in the back when delivered and still worked from the start without any problems or leaks after installed and I do have a permanent connection to the sink drain as the unit is located under the counter.
