Editorial note
The Smeg STE521 dishwasher stands out for its elegant and modern design, perfectly integrated into various interiors. With a noise level of 49 dB, it ensures quiet operation, which is a valuable asset in a kitchen. Additionally, the built-in water softener feature enhances the durability of the appliance while providing optimal user comfort. The adjustable feet also add installation flexibility. However, some drawbacks are worth noting. The cycle duration of 165 minutes may be perceived as too long, especially for those who want clean dishes quickly. Furthermore, the annual water consumption of 3360 L could be concerning for environmentally conscious users. Although the model offers 5 washing programs, the lack of specific programs for delicate or heavily soiled dishes could limit its effectiveness in certain situations.
