Manuals of product HIC 3C26 CW
Editorial note
The Hotpoint HIC 3C26 CW dishwasher stands out for its integrated and customizable design, which allows for aesthetic harmonization with your interior while optimizing space. With a capacity of 14 place settings, it is ideal for families and meals with friends, ensuring effective cleaning even after hearty meals. Additionally, its noise level of only 46 dB ensures discreet use, which is an asset in open living spaces. The multiple washing programs (9) allow each cycle to be tailored to the specific needs of your dishes. However, there are some drawbacks to consider. The lack of Wi-Fi control limits modern connectivity, which may disappoint some users. Although the noise level is reasonable, it may be perceived as a bit high by those seeking an extremely quiet dishwasher. The energy efficiency class E is relatively low compared to other models, which could lead to higher energy costs in the long run. Furthermore, the cycle duration of 190 minutes may seem long for those needing a quick clean, and the absence of a half-load program makes usage less efficient when the dishwasher is not fully loaded. In terms of performance, the user experience is generally positive thanks to an intuitive interface and well-thought-out features. However, the cycle duration and energy efficiency may detract from the perceived value of the product. In summary, the Hotpoint HIC 3C26 CW is a solid choice for those looking for an aesthetic and functional dishwasher, but it is important to weigh the drawbacks in terms of energy efficiency and usage flexibility.Score details
