Perfect size, so far so good! Cycle is too long 2 hours, scared to change as I mess up electrical systems. Not much noise, cleans good! Didn’t have washer set up, had to spend another 500 to setup. I wish it came up with installation.
It’s working great! It’s been a life saver

    Best dishwasher we've ever owned
    The previous owners of our RV installed this dishwasher before we bought the rig. When we bought the RV, we had never heard of Danby. Now, we are converts. We live in our RV full time, so we use the dishwasher every single day. We both agree that we have never had a better dishwasher. This thing is a workhorse! Everything comes out spotless. We can even wash our stainless steel pans in the dishwasher. We've never been able to put them in a dishwasher before! They usually require hand washing since they are not non-stick. Also, we don't keep our hot water heater on all the time because it blows through our propane supply. But the dishwasher heats the water itself, so it's a non-issue when washing dishes. If you are on the fence about buying this product, just do it. I cannot say enough good things about it. They are slightly pricey compared to discount models, but worth every penny! I will never buy another dishwasher brand again. When we finish our stint in the RV, I plan to buy a full-size Danby dishwasher for our home.

            This dishwasher works perfectly in our small kitchen since it is just 2 of us. It cleans well and keeps dirty dishes out of the sink and off the limited counter space.

                I never thought I could have an under the counter dishwasher because of the size of my kitchen but Danby proved me wrong by offering an 18 inch model. It fit the bill. Have not had for very long but so far thumbs up. Am very pleased with the performance from ease of operation and quietness to cleaning of the dishes, flatware, cutlery, glasses and pots and pans.

                    Hi,

                    We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused. If your unit displays an error code, please give your unit a hard reboot. Unplug it and plug it back in after 15-20 minutes. This allows the unit to go back to factory settings. If you still encounter the same issue after performing the hard reboot, don't hesitate to contact our consumer support team at consumerservice@danby.com or fill in your information https://www.danby.com/support/.

                      Not happy
                      Will not dry the dishes at all. Bottom rack does as other reviews and goes off track a lot. Build in rack guides make it hard to load anything but a standard plate or flat type bowl unlike it shows in the pictures. Relatively quiet but runs too long.

                      Hello,

                      We are grateful that you took the time out to leave us a review. If your dishwasher is not drying during the appropriate cycle, make sure that the rinse aid dispenser—generally located on the interior door, right next to the detergent dispenser is full. If not, remove the cap on the dispenser and pour in enough rinse aid until the indicator shows it’s full. Don’t overfill your dishwasher. There should be a little bit of space between all of the dishes, cups, bowls, and other items, otherwise, water and detergent won’t be able to reach all surfaces of the dirty dishware, nor will they dry evenly. Lastly, once the dishwasher completes its cycle, crack the door open a bit to allow moist air to escape. Let the dishwasher sit for half an hour or more before emptying it so that any remaining water has a chance to evaporate. If the measures have been taken and the problem persists. Please contact our customer service at consumerservice@danby.com or fill in your information at https://www.danby.com/support/ for proper assistance. Regards, Earl danby-products

                                        We're sorry for what happened. All our products go through a quality check to ensure each unit that is released to our warehouse is free of damage or dents. Sometimes the cause of water leaking is the drain hose is not correctly installed. You need to ensure that the hose is connected properly and not over-tighten the 90° elbow. This can damage the water inlet and cause a leak. Thanks, Earl danby-products

                                        Nice unit, smaller inside than previous 18" but dishes are sparking clean.Like the white front matches our other appliances. Controls are confusing and so is instruction booklet! Will call manufacturer for clarification. Does not come with hose or electrical lines. Had hard time finding someone to install - even though Home Depot shows them in their catalog, took payment would not install.
