Depending on your kitchen space and how many dishes you go through each day, you may find one particular type of dishwasher\u2014a regular built-in, an 18 inch, or a countertop\u2014works best for you. Each kind of dishwasher has its pros and cons, but you can typically find a quality performer in any variety. The key consideration is space.<\/p>\n

Countertop<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

If you live in a small apartment or an RV, then you know you have minimal kitchen space. Or, if you’re single or retired, you don’t use many dishes throughout the day. In these cases, a countertop dishwasher is the best choice. Only 17 inches tall, it fits on the counter, usually squeezed in under a cabinet. A countertop dishwasher includes all the basic functions of a regular dishwasher but in a much smaller box-like structure. They typically hold 4 place settings and can wash a full load with about 2 gallons of water\u2014that’s much more efficient than washing them by hand. <\/p>\n
