    It is important for me that the dishwasher: 1) cleans grease and dirt well 2) works quietly 3) is economical. Therefore, I was looking for one that will work on magnets in order to save electricity. I already learned from the consultant in the store that there are half-load models. I bought one. This is very convenient, you do not need to wait until a mountain of dishes is collected to wash everything. Water and light are consumed, of course, but in acceptable volumes.
