Reviews of the Korting KDI 45165 dishwasher
The Korting brand is well known to consumers in Europe and the CIS countries. The same dishwashers are produced under this brand mainly in the middle and high price categories, so traditionally they are bought by wealthy people who value good equipment. The built-in dishwasher Korting KDI 45165 is an attempt by the manufacturer to penetrate a hitherto unknown low price category, an attempt to introduce less wealthy people to the quality of Korting. The extent to which this succeeded or failed will be assessed by the consumer himself.

I bought and installed a Korting KDI 45165 dishwasher two weeks ago and I want to share my impressions, and at the same time thank the sellers who recommended such a wonderful machine to me. All my dishes that managed to go through the dishwasher seem to have been renewed; not a trace of dirt, soot, etc. remains. Of course, the expenses have increased, there is salt and detergent, but it’s worth it, because for relatively little money I have acquired real comfort for myself.
Add here soft skin on your hands and a flawless manicure, and you don’t even need to stand half-bent at the sink.

I gave myself a Korting KDI 45165 machine for my birthday and didn’t use it for two days, some electronic unit failed, I had to dismantle it, take it back to the store and replace it with a new one. This time I decided not to take a dishwasher from Korting, since the impressions were not very good, I took an Electrolux. For some reason it seems to me that there will be no problems with her.

I am a professional installer of washing machines, dishwashers, and water heaters. I know about this technique first-hand and I can tell you a lot of interesting things, since I have been working in this field for almost 10 years. You will be surprised, but I somehow managed without a dishwasher, because after my divorce I lived alone and did not dirty enough dishes to accumulate them for washing in the unit. A couple of months ago, I finally decided to buy and, after weighing all the pros and cons, I settled on the Korting KDI 45165 dishwasher. Why this particular machine?
- Attaching the front to the dishwasher This brand is very easy to produce. The fastenings are reliable, and there is no need to adjust anything.
- The dishwasher is completely protected from leaks and has a delay start, which in my case is not the last thing. Quite often I am not at home for a long time; more often I come home for a couple of hours and then run away again. In this regard, you have to start the machine with a delayed start, and it works when no one is at home.
! It is advisable not to allow the dishwasher to work unattended; well, if you are forced to leave working equipment alone, it should be completely protected from leaks.
- The body of the machine is of very high quality, made of high-quality stainless steel. The thickness of the material is sufficient to judge that the case will last a long time.
- Very high-quality transformable baskets for dishes that allow you to organize even large kitchen utensils.
- High quality washing.
I probably won’t praise this model in advance; I need to use it for at least a year, but it seems to me that I bought a decent machine.I’ll write reviews in another ten months, share my impressions, and maybe reconsider my opinion.
Experience of use for more than six months

This is my very first dishwasher and I am beyond happy with it. I bought it 8 months ago at the insistence of my mother, although I literally chose the brand and model at random. I needed a built-in model, since at the same time I was changing the furniture in the kitchen. I settled on Korting KDI 45165 because it is relatively inexpensive and German-made. During use, I did not find any significant shortcomings. Except that the upper basket cannot be pulled out, and the instructions are not informative. You can’t understand anything from it, you have to learn to use the machine yourself.

Korting KDI 45165 is a good dishwasher, but it has one significant drawback, which I discovered recently, although I have been using the machine for 6 months. The lid of the detergent tray does not open well. Quite often, during washing, the lid remains tightly closed and the tablet does not dissolve, so the quality of washing is noticeably reduced. And where will the quality be if the dishes are washed in clean water without any detergent. So far I don’t know what to come up with to get out of the situation, but I can’t continue using the dishwasher like that.

This is probably the best dishwasher I've ever used. I was pleased with it even during installation, because it was built into the kitchen furniture as if it was there, and it also connected without difficulty. Spacious, washes dishes perfectly, warns when the sink ends with a beam of light shining on the floor. Very pleased with the purchase.
The Korting KDI 45165 dishwasher is much quieter than other household dishwashers.
More than a year of experience

I have been using dishwashers for over 15 years and have great respect for this equipment. My very first machine was a Bosch brand, I sold it because it was obsolete, although it could still work and work. In any case, I had no complaints about her. Then I bought a narrow built-in machine from Electrolux and used it for a long time. This is really a machine, a machine, I would have bought an Electrolux as a replacement, but a mechanic I knew dissuaded me, saying that their quality had become worse.
As a result, two years ago, I bought a Korting KDI 45165 dishwasher. The overall impression is quite favorable. Of course not the best technology, but very worthy. I am especially pleased with the quality of dishwashing. If you choose the right product, any dishes will always shine. I really like the design, beautiful lighting, informative display and set of programs. Well, of course, I was pleased with the price, for that kind of money, the set of options on the machine is simply gorgeous!

The narrow, roomy dishwasher Korting KDI 45165 immediately caught my attention in the store, but I was a fool for the beautiful picture and fell for it. As soon as the warranty expired, the circulation pump failed and some problems arose with the electronics. There didn’t seem to be a power surge in the network, I don’t know what the reason is, I’ll call a technician. Overall the machine is not bad, but there are obvious problems with the quality of parts. If I could turn back time, I would buy something different.

I bought Korting KDI 45165 almost two years ago and I have no complaints.It works very well, quiet, 21st century design, all sorts of technical bells and whistles. Fits a lot of different dishes. When it’s time to wash, I put almost all the dishes in the house in baskets and everything is washed in about an hour. I recommend this model to everyone!

Did you buy a Korting KDI 45165 dishwasher? I was disappointed after six months. The baskets began to rust and metal began to spill out. Now there is a new attack. Where to buy baskets? I do not advise!
