Manual of product HIC 3C24 S
Editorial note
The Hotpoint HIC 3C24 S dishwasher stands out with its generous capacity of 14 place settings, making it an ideal choice for families or meals with friends. Its quiet operation at 44 dB allows for pleasant use without noise disturbances, even in a home environment. The integrated inverter technology optimizes energy consumption, thus contributing to enhanced performance while minimizing the impact on your electricity bill. With seven wash programs, including an Eco mode, this appliance easily adapts to the specific needs of your dishes, and the delayed start timer of up to 12 hours offers appreciated flexibility. However, the cycle duration of 190 minutes may be perceived as relatively long, which could frustrate some users seeking speed. Although the noise level is acceptable, it could be bothersome in very quiet environments, especially at night. Additionally, the water consumption of 12 liters per cycle may pose a problem for those concerned about water conservation. The lack of advanced features such as Wi-Fi connectivity limits remote control and programming options, which could disappoint users looking for more modern solutions. Furthermore, the weight of 35.5 kg can make the installation and movement of the appliance difficult, especially for a single person. In terms of ergonomics, the Hotpoint HIC 3C24 S is well thought out with intuitive controls and useful indicators, making daily use enjoyable. The documentation provided, in the form of a user manual, is clear and well-structured, facilitating the product's handling. Overall, the Hotpoint HIC 3C24 S offers good value for money, especially due to its features and capacity, despite some notable limitations.Score details
