If you have an area of worktop to spare, a tabletop dishwasher – also called countertop, compact or portable – may be the answer to your washing up woes.
However, not all of us are lucky enough to have the space for a standard-size dishwasher while anyone in a rented property may prefer to choose one they can install without drastically altering the kitchen and even take with them when they move on. Life’s too short to spend any of it doing the dishes.
