Rank #9 in Best Freestanding Dishwasher 2026: 10 Ranked, and the Numbers That Disagree
COMFEE' Full Size Freestanding Dishwasher, 14 Place, Black
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The COMFEE' CDWEF1435EBC-UK is the ninth machine in this guide: a full-size freestanding dishwasher in black gloss, 60 cm wide, listed at £359.99 with a 4.5 out of 5 rating from 17 reviews.
Its listing is a useful example of why we read the spec table as well as the title. The Capacity field reads '9.8 litres', and 9.8 litres is exactly the water figure the energy bullet gives for a single eco cycle — so that box is holding water consumption, not place settings. The place setting count sits in a different field and says 14, which is what the title claims too. The programme count splits the same way: the product highlight promises 8 cycles while the Cycle Options field names six. Everything below comes from the Amazon listing for this machine, not from testing we carried out.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“Wasn't sure about the quality at first, but we've been really impressed so far. It's modern, quiet and cleans really well.The auto-open after wash is honestly a game-changer, the LED countdown display is really handy, and the quick wash settings save us loads of time. There's plenty of space thanks to the adjustable shelves, and the cutlery basket is large and has a nice handle.It looks sleek and modern and has actually made me want to spend more time in the kitchen. Nice touch that it came with Finish rinse aid and capsules too. Overall, it feels like a high-tech dishwasher at a very reasonable price.”
Verified purchase“Looks absolutely great with the rest of the appliances, has so much placeholders for dishes, utensils and cups, much more than my previous one. Can't wait to try some of the features it's advertised with, waiting to get it plumbed in now then will update review talking about the features!”
