Description

45 cm wide for a smaller kitchen

The WSBO 3O34 PF X is only 45 cm wide, so it also fits a small flat or cottage kitchen where every cabinet module counts. It holds 10 place settings, which is usually enough for a day's dishes in a household of two to four. The dishwasher measures 45 × 56 × 82 cm, and the manufacturer lists its colour as stainless steel.

6th Sense and Multizone washing

6th Sense is the name of Whirlpool's sensor technology, which aims to match the wash to the amount of dishes and how dirty they are, so the machine does not use more water and energy than needed. Multizone is the manufacturer's zone washing feature, useful when the dishwasher is only partly full. The Eco-Friendly label also points to economical use; the manufacturer gives no further detail.

Energy class D and 9 litres of water

On the EU energy label scale from A to G the dishwasher is rated class D, with energy consumption of 67 kWh per 100 cycles. That figure also appears on the energy label and makes it easy to compare models. Water consumption is 9 litres according to the manufacturer. With a narrow dishwasher it pays to run full baskets, as the water and energy are then shared across more dishes.

NaturalDry, tablets and indicators

NaturalDry is the manufacturer's name for a drying feature designed to let dishes dry naturally at the end of the cycle. According to the manufacturer, dishwasher tablets can be used. Salt and rinse aid indicators let you know when either is running low: salt protects the machine from limescale and rinse aid helps prevent spots on glasses.

Quick wash and a 24-hour delay start

The eight programmes include a quick wash for lightly soiled dishes when clean plates are needed straight away. Delay start pushes the start of a cycle back by up to 24 hours, so the machine can run overnight, for example. The display shows the chosen settings, and adjustable feet help level the dishwasher and fit its 82 cm height under the worktop.

Who this dishwasher is for

The Whirlpool WSBO 3O34 PF X is for a smaller kitchen with a 45 cm space for a dishwasher and a household of one to four people. Quick wash and delay start make everyday use flexible, while 6th Sense and Multizone help when the machine is not always filled to the top.
