Rank #8 in Best Freestanding Dishwasher 2026: 10 Ranked, and the Numbers That Disagree
Cookology CFSD613BK 60cm Freestanding Dishwasher, Black
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Cookology CFSD613BK is a 60 cm freestanding full-size dishwasher in black, listed at £269.99 and placed eighth in this guide. Cookology is not one of the badge names most British kitchens already have, but the listing is specific about what the machine does: a wash rated at 52 decibels, a delay timer of up to eight hours, a child lock and a half-load option for part-filled loads.
What stands out on this ficha is the same thing that stands out across the shelf: the listing counts its own features twice and gets two answers. The bullets and the Capacity field say 13 place settings; the field marked "Number of settings" says 6, and 6 is also what "OptionCycles" says — which matches the six cycles the bullets mention, while the Cycle Options field names seven. One bullet describes "this white dishwasher" on a machine whose title, Colour and Style Name all read black. Every figure on this page is taken from the Amazon listing rather than from any testing we have carried out.
