Gorenje GV 520E10 (737514)

Up to 11 sets at a time

Introduced in 2021, the Gorenje dishwasher belongs to the junior solutions of the branded line. It is intended to be built into a kitchen niche 45 cm wide, but, let's say, against the background of the GV 52040 model similar in size, it looks advantageous in terms of capacity: 11 sets against 9. A good useful volume of the Gorenje GV 520E10 working chamber is due to the presence of a third compartment for cutlery. And to accommodate larger utensils at the very bottom, the upper basket can be adjusted in height.

Convenient and economical assistant

The model is not wasteful in terms of water consumption, since on average it needs up to 10 liters per cycle. Things are even better with energy consumption: according to the new marking, the device corresponds to class E, and this is comparable to the high A ++ rating. The dishwasher is equipped with AquaStop leakage protection, self-cleaning filters and a 3-in-1 function with the ability not to load salt, rinse aid and detergent separately. There is also a concise push-button control. And since users note that it is not difficult even for schoolchildren to master it, the lack of a display is clearly not a critical moment.

5 programs and half load

Gorenje GV 520E10 operates in one of three available temperature modes: 35, 45 or 60 °C. The minimum temperature is suggested for the fast 35-minute cycle, the medium temperature is used in the economy programme, and the maximum temperature is used in the daily (hourly) and intensive programme. There is also a pre-rinse, that is, soaking in cold water, for example, in case you plan to wash the dishes from breakfast after dinner. By the way, it is not necessary to wait for the dishwasher to be completely filled, because there is a half load. But there is no auto programme here, so the most effective cycle for varying degrees of soiled dishes will have to be selected empirically. Also a disadvantage is the inability to delay washing (there is no start timer). But if you need a capacious narrow dishwasher to operate it “right now”, then the Gorenje GV 520E10 is a tempting, and also very inexpensive option.
