Reviews of the Korting KDI 45175 dishwasher
The German built-in dishwasher Korting KDI 45175 is another high-quality example from a well-known manufacturer. Particular attention to this model is due to its low price. And indeed, who would refuse good German equipment that costs the same as some third-rate Chinese equipment. Let's look at the technical characteristics of this model, and at the same time the reviews about it, because anyone who has used this dishwasher for at least a couple of months cannot be fooled by beautiful advertising gimmicks.
Specifications
In essence, the technical characteristics of this dishwasher can be called ordinary. There are no extraordinary functions, programs or modes in it, but there are still some “tricks”. In particular:
- “beam on the floor” indicator, which appears after the end of the program, notifying the user that clean dishes can be collected;
- complete protection against leaks, which will protect your home from possible flooding in the event of a breakdown;
- the ability to use 3 in 1 products instead of regular powder;
- the ability to delay the start of the machine by as much as a day;
- interior lighting.
It seems like nothing special, but still these small technical additions make using the machine easier and more enjoyable. Korting KDI 45175 is a narrow built-in dishwasher, its dimensions are 45x54x82 cm. Despite the narrow body, the washing machine is quite roomy. It claims to hold 10 place settings, but in reality it holds a little more.The machine is quite economical, this applies to both energy consumption (A++) and water consumption (8.5 l) per cycle, and the machine spends little time on washing.
This dishwasher model is distinguished by its low noise level (44 dB).
The machine has electronic controls and an informative display. The body is made of high quality steel, covered with heat and sound insulating material on top. Fastenings for furniture facades are very convenient and reliable.
Judging by the technical characteristics, the machine is very good, but what people will say about it is a big question. How does the Korting KDI 45175 dishwasher perform during operation?

You can call me a dishwasher connoisseur. I'm already buying the third one. This time I chose for a long time and with skill. I settled on the Korting KDI 45175. It’s an excellent machine, let me tell you, even problematic dishes shine after it. It fits into the kitchen without any problems and works great. It seemed to me that this was exactly the washing machine you could dream of, and besides, I only paid $420 for it.

The Korting KDI 45175 is a very cool machine, it was recommended to me by a friend who works as a seller of household appliances. I always wanted to buy a good car, preferably a German one, but their prices are outrageous. I had to think hard, and then a friend called and said that they had received cheap washing machines, so I took it. In a nutshell, I’ll tell you about the advantages of Korting KDI 45175.
- It is very easy to install, all components fit perfectly.
- There is a backlight, an indicator beam and a bunch of washing programs.
- Works quietly.
- Cleans any dishes perfectly.
After 5 months of use, I didn’t find any flaws; on the other hand, I didn’t really look for it. Personally, I like everything, my wife is also happy.

I was persuaded to buy Korting KDI 45175 in a store; in general, I was counting on slightly cheaper equipment, but in the end I did not regret that I bought a dishwasher of this particular brand and model. I don’t understand anything about technical intricacies, and it doesn’t matter to me, as long as my “home assistant” does her job well and doesn’t break down for a long time. I really like the dish baskets. They are convenient and roomy, so you don’t have to “bother” if you need to cram a large frying pan or saucepan.
Trays for dishes can be adjusted in height.
Negative opinions
Igor, Novosibirsk
Yes, this Korting KDI 45175 was made not in Germany, but in a “mukhosransk” in some basement. Guys, I have never seen anything like this in my life. Either I’m pathologically unlucky, or the Germans decided to screw us over in revenge for 1945. I’ll tell you in order.
7 months ago I bought a new Korting KDI 45175 machine from a large hardware store. I decided not to order delivery and installation, I thought I’d bring it and install it myself. So I did. Surprisingly, everything went like clockwork, all the components were in place, I installed the machine without any problems, and connecting to communications went smoothly. True, I bought the wrong one at first faucet for connecting the dishwasher to the water supply, but then quickly corrected the situation, ran to the store and replaced this plumbing element with a more suitable one.
In general, everything went well, but as it turned out, it went too well. My new equipment worked “faithfully” for exactly a week. Over the weekend it stood up tightly and there was silence.No matter how much I pressed the buttons, how many times I turned it on and off, there was zero response, even the program was not selected. I returned the washing machine to the store and it was received well. I took exactly the same machine as a replacement, and it broke after 4 months. I took it to a service center for repairs, and I’m still waiting for the results! Don't buy Korting KDI 45175 - it's consumer goods!

Such a poor dishwasher. It costs a penny, of course, but it can’t really do anything. The capacity is mediocre, it does not wash dishes well, sometimes you have to wash them. Well, about the fact that it is supposedly quiet, if I were the manufacturer, I would remain silent. This is an ordinary machine, it just rattles and gets on your nerves. My rating is 2 on a five-point scale.

The washing machine is bad, even though it was made in Europe. Apparently Europeans can do bad things too. During the year of operation, there were 2 repairs: one simple, the other quite expensive, despite the fact that the dishwasher should be under warranty, but we were denied warranty service. I’m not happy with either the brand or the model, it would be better if I bought Bosch, as my friend recommended!
So, despite the fact that the Korting brand is a generally recognized brand under which high-quality equipment is produced, not all consumers liked the Korting KDI 45175 model. Perhaps they are just being picky, but we are inclined to think that not everything is so simple with this machine. Good luck with your choice!

A poor washing machine with a well-known brand and made in China. If I had known, I would never have taken it. Noisy, washes mediocrely, the layout of the dishes is very inconvenient, and so are the programs. Before that I was at BOSCH and worked for eight years faithfully. This one broke after working for a little over a year. I do not advise!
