Comfee Dishwasher: Easy to Use, Quiet, Does a Great Job for Its Size
As a journalist, I tend to read bad reviews before I read good reviews because I know many good reviews are paid for. I can usually read between the lines on bad reviews if someone is really not happy with the product or if they’re just mad with the delivery service and blaming the product. So, when I researched and reviewed many brands of countertop mini-dishwashers, I was hesitant. And I was unfamiliar with the brand Comfee. So I researched literally for months. The majority of the reviews were pretty good, I must say, very few complaints. Most negative reviews sounded like ppl who didn’t understand how it worked.There is a small learning curve but the Comfee manual clearly explains all the how to’s, do’s and don’ts. It is well packed in its box and very heavy. Perhaps a big guy can lift it to the counter alone but in my case, it took two women to place it on the counter. As it states, it is small, good for a 2 place setting if you pack it right. But I’ve washed small pans and pan covers, among the dishes, and all came out well. It’s important to note that it does have upper and lower rotors so be careful not to pack things too high or let silverware or handles fall through the silverware rack.The tray on which dishes are placed rolls easily in and out of the machine so you can let it dry out in your sink while wiping down the interior after a wash. The model I chose really doesn’t have a drying portion so I let it sit for about 1/2 hour after wash is complete and then open the door and let the rest air dry. I have only needed to use it twice a week, enough that I don’t need to do dishes manually anymore, which is fantastic.So far, it has done a higher than expected awesome job at cleaning everything. No spots, no lines, no streaks. It is also remarkably quiet. I have used only the manual wash where you pour the water into it via a top filter. Comfee provides the pitcher and a scoop so the water goes right in, about 3 gallons. A buzzer rings when it’s full so you don’t have to guess or worry about overspill. Then I use the drain hose provided to drain the water right into my sink. This was the key reason for this purchase. I didn’t want to hook anything up to my faucet as it would be too big a pain to attach and detach for each wash. This feature makes it very portable too like for an RV.Biggest advice, read the instructions. Comfee makes it very clear on use, cleaning, things to do in which order, one of the best manuals I’ve every seen. I have a very small kitchen and even less counter space so this was perfect for my counter. Those who have seen it have fallen in love with it.The model I purchased has a fruit cleaner but does not supply a colander so I bought an itty bitty one on Amazon. It also has short wash, long wash, and a couple of other options. I strongly suggest that after each wash, say before bed, leave the door open to air out. Wipe down the inside walls and floor but a good airing certainly helps too. It does have a little removable filter on the floor that is supposed to capture any food left on plates. However, I rinse all my dishes and silverware before I put anything in the Comfee as I don’t want to take the risk of something clogging up the machine. I take the filter out once a week and wipe it clean anyway and dry up any water left over so it doesn’t get moldy or attract bugs.This Comfee model was $300 on Amazon but like most things I just put it in my cart and waited for a sale. Amazon notifies you when things in your cart are discounted or go on sale. Finally, after a couple of months, Amazon had a sale and Comfee was offering $40 off so it ended up costing about $200. Even though I’ve used it only about a dozen times so far… it has been worth every penny, less work, more time for other stuff., and far less dishwater hands and fingers.I wish I had a complaint but so far so good. I am delightfully surprised and happy with this purchase. If anything changes or it breaks down after a few months, I’ll be back to let you know.

Good machine, bad accessories
i live in NYC in an apartment with no dishwasher and thought this might be a nice option for when I’m feeling lazy. I’ve been using it for a few months now and i will say it cleans my dishes beautifully. The glass particularly comes out looking shiny in a way that handwashing doesn’t seem to ever achieve. I use the little dishwasher pods and just throw them in. The cycle is fairly long but I don’t mind I just set it and forget it.Key tips – DEFINITELY get a waterproof mat to go beneath the machine – something that has sides and can hold water. I got an undersink mat off Amazon. You will want to catch leaks.The hose for the offshoot water is terrible. Flimsy and leaky as hell. After many headaches I replaced it with a clear flexible plastic hose that I push into exit port (something that snugly fits over the exit port would also work). It’s snug and isn’t going anywhere. I have an hard time understanding why they included an hose that comes off the exit port with the slightest amount of pressure. Anyway that swap seems to have resolved the leaking issues I was having. The clear plastic also lets me monitor the flow of the water out of the hose – anyone who knows fluid dynamics knows that water in a hose is pretty wonky. I affixed it to the side of the machine and have it drain into a bucket beneath my sink because I don’t have the real estate for a big clunky dishwasher to be sitting on my counter.Filling the machine can be a little annoying as well, if you don’t have the direct connection. It takes a lot of water – more than you’d think – and it won’t run beneath a certain level. I would recommend getting another length of plastic piping and affixing it to a funnel that you can run directly from your spout. It’s way faster than filling up a pitcher and trying to maneuver it over the tank. I wish they would have included something like this.Overall, a good machine, I just don’t know that the maker really thought through the more complex piece of running a water-based appliance without attaching it to your plumbing lines – getting the water in and getting that water back out. Both can result in a watery mess if you don’t have watertight connections. It feels like they could improve those bits and make this machine a lot more user-friendly.Alas, when it works it’s great. Saves me effort on a lazy day and provides an out of the way place to put dirty dishes where they won’t attract pests or be an eyesore. I’d recommend it to dishwasher-less apartment dwellers who cook a lot at home and who don’t mind putting in a bit of upfront effort (and maybe a few headaches) in the service of being lazy down the line.

Soy una mujer autista (y con TDAH) de 22 años que vive sola. Todo lo relacionado a la limpieza me cuesta muchísimo por mis neurodivergencias: desde tener que organizarme, tener la energía y no vomitarme o salir huyendo por las texturas de las cosas que tengo que limpiar. Por esto siempre tengo que encontrar mejores maneras de sobrevivir, y uno de los ámbitos en los que tenía que mejorar era en la lavada de platos. Yo era de esas personas que dejaba los platos MESES, no es mentira ni exageración. Dejé de cocinar hace tiempo (no tenía tiempo ni energía) y apenas usaba unos cuantos platos. Pero, por ejemplo, invité a unas amigas a comer (y les cociné) para celebrar la Navidad por ahí del 15 de diciembre de 2022. Una de las cosas que hice fue hervir brócoli: ellas se fueron y la olla con el agua del brócoli y los restos despedazados quedaron ahí. Hoy, 23 de julio de 2023, decidí al fin lavarla. De más está decir que estaba toda llena de hongos, asquerosa; justo la razón por la que no quería lavarla. La metí en el lavavajillas junto a su tapa y nada más (porque el aparato es muy pequeño) y dejé que corriera uno de los ciclos de higiene. Verán mi sorpresa al sacarla y ver que estaba casi como nueva: el agua salió asquerosísima, como jamás me había salido, pero la olla sólo se quedó con un par de manchas que quité a mano con una pasada de la esponja. Eso era un cementerio de hongos y lo eliminó por completo. En otro ciclo también metí un termo en el que había preparado té en polvo (de esos de Lipton) y había olvidado el restito. Se evaporó, quedó lo dulce y se formaron hongos. Era mi termo favorito y pensé que iba a tener que tirarlo después de aproximadamente unos cuatro meses de haberlo tenido así. ¡Pues no! Una lavada después, salió como nuevo.Yo ya estaba lista para tirar esa olla y ese termo, pero este mini lavavajillas les dio otra oportunidad de vivir. Desde que tengo este aparatejo, he podido mantener mis platos limpios (aprox unos 3 meses).Ojo que sí, es muy muy muy pequeño: en platos le caben bastantes pero no muy grandes, el problema es cuando metemos vasos, que ocupan demasiado espacio. Podrá lavar unos 3, quizá 4 al mismo tiempo, junto con platos, o unos seis solitos. Para los platos (sin ollas ni instrumentos de preparación) de una comida de quizá hasta tres personas, sí alcanza. Podrían poner en el siguiente ciclo todo lo de la preparación, quizá. Para una persona, que casi nunca cocina, fue un milagro que me ha cambiado la vida. Quería algo que pudiera poner en la encimera y que no requiriera conectarse a plomería, y esta fue la solución perfecta: casi no gasta energía, no ocupa tantísimo espacio (aunque sí es más bultoso de lo que se esperaría), lo lleno manualmente y uso una cubeta para que recolecte el agua sucia (le caben dos ciclos de agua en una sola cubeta normal). Sólo gasto cinco litros de agua por ciclo (¡grandes ahorros porque no sé cómo lavar trastes con poca agua!) y a veces he usado el agua sucia para echarle agua al baño (cuando no hay agua y lo que lavé dejó el agua casi transparente, que es casi siempre). Así que… ¡hace de todo!Lo más increíble es que la compré a creo que menos de seis mil pesos y a meses sin intereses. Si la consigues por ese precio, ¡no lo dudes ni un segundo!Hay cosas que conviene lavar a mano, como algunos vasos o tazas, o cubiertos y popotes, pero la cantidad de cosas que he lavado a mano cada vez se ha reducido más. Estoy encantada. Volvería a comprar esto mil veces.

The only advantage is that it fits in places where a standard one would not. The vessel is made of plastic, so max temperature is lower than in models with steel vessel. Capacity is very small, smaller than external dimensions would suggest. It claims 3 sets, but actually it is perhaps just enough for 1 or 2 people if they are not cooking much. There is no mechanism to hold the detergent – it will just pour in. Also, due to small volume, I think it needs less detergent than a tab for a standard dishwasher contains, so it is better to use liquid or powder detergent that can be measured.
