It is difficult for a modern housewife to imagine her life without a dishwasher. The variety of brands and models can be confusing. We will tell you about NEFF equipment and advise you on how to choose the best dishwasher.
NEFF household appliances belong to the premium segment. It is distinguished by its ergonomic design and reliability.
The machines are equipped with motors that operate almost silently.
For drying, the mineral zeolite is used as a heat source. Zeolite drying is fast and uses little energy.
The devices use AquaVario technology to wash dishes. It carefully cleans even fragile dishes. The machine itself determines the required pressure when supplying water, and uses low pressure when cleaning porcelain or glass.
In NEFF dishwashers, everything is thought out for user convenience:
- the door is equipped with a touch sensor and opens with one touch;
- the baskets have guides and stops that allow you to place dishes more efficiently;
- completion of work is marked by a special sensor - a beam on the floor.
Choosing a microwave + oven Siemens vs Bosch vs Neff - which is more ergonomic?
I choose between three built-in microwave + oven: Siemens HB86Q560E, Bosch HBC 86Q650E/86Q651E, NEFF B7742N0.
» > » > » > (on the pages there are links to the Operating Instructions) The filling of the devices is identical, everything is assembled in Korea, the question is rather about the ergonomics of the controls. In Siemens, the microwave power selection and power buttons are located on different edges (maybe to avoid children’s accidental pressing? Or who knows more precisely the reason for this design?), in Bosch they are grouped on the right, in Neff they are grouped in the center. What to choose? I always thought that Siemens ergonomics were slightly higher than Bosch (Siemens household appliances are more common in Germany, Bosch mainly in the rest of the world), but Bosch’s approach seems more convenient.
ps A similar question may arise when choosing a built-in Microwave Oven: Siemens HB86E560, Bosch HBC84K551, NEFF B6754N0: » > » > » >
Personally, I have such an oven - “> respectively, 2 controls to the left and right of the display. I like it and it's convenient. And as far as it’s convenient for you, in my opinion it’s easier to go and feel it in a real store.
2 turmarin Is this really an oven? Or is it a microwave? I wanted to buy a compact oven with a microwave. I think I should choose Bosch or Samsung.
It's really an oven + microwave with grill.
I was also thinking about the Samsung FQ159STR. Interesting model and design. But since he acquired built-in equipment relatively recently and was unable to find reviews, and also because he was unable to see this device “live,” he chose the Siemens HB 86E560. The HB86Q560E has a rounded camera - i.e. It's more microwave than oven. But the HB86E560 has a regular camera - you can put a baking tray.

Then the best option for you is Bosch HBC 84K551 - not only in the shape of the chamber, but also in the set of programs it is closer to a full-fledged oven. Plus it is made in Germany, in Traunreit.

Among the programs I noticed in Bosch “Upper/Lower Heat”. Is this what you mean? Or something else? Another difference is the internal coating.
lextr wrote: From the programs I noticed “Upper/Lower Heat” in Bosch. Is this what you mean?
Exactly this. Any normal oven has top and bottom heating.
Hm. Isn't it possible to reproduce similar heating using Siemens programs? I thought that the 86E560 was a more “advanced” model. Are you wrong? PS I already bought this model.
2lextr The choice is still good, but nevertheless, the Siemens programs are more suitable for the definition of “Microwave oven with grill and convection” + the heat of the convector and the shape of the chamber like that of an oven. But the most important thing is that it bakes, according to reviews, perfectly.
At Siemens, I didn’t like the small buttons scattered interspersed across the entire width. The completely similar Bosch has larger buttons and are more conveniently grouped.

I have the same situation. We bought it about a week and a half ago, it’s still unpacked. The kitchen hasn't arrived yet. And then I find out that it is closer to the microwave, and not to the oven
Please tell me how it is used specifically as an oven - are there problems due to the lack of lower/upper heat, or is it replaced by something else and everything bakes normally? In theory, you’ve been using it for half a year already.
Thank you in advance for your answer, otherwise we think it might change until 2 weeks have passed, we are rushing around, so to speak ((

Yes, it’s normal. It turned out that we just need a microwave more often, so everything is ok. We also use the oven = it seems to work out fine.
There is one concern and all the differences are in design. Simeon and Nafanya are made for the German market and therefore look more laconic, Bosch is made for export. Now on to the cabinets themselves. Initially, the companies were called Quantum Speed (Quantum Speed). the manufacturer guaranteed faster cooking in them due to the small volume (1st model for 34 liters, 2nd model for 42 liters) and the same (!) quantity and power of heating elements as large ovens. Quantums had a layout similar to a microwave (plate-baking tray), which did not suit many, and then they made an oven with a layout like an oven but with a microwave. The models that are now offered by manufacturers. These are the descendants of those same quantums and they have added somewhat more advanced brains (recipe and other crap). According to customer reviews, the things are worthwhile if you don’t cook with great fanaticism (I’m talking about pies for grandchildren at 5 levels). and as one owner of such a unit noted: “it’s not so much and easy to wash.”
To embed equipment or not
Before choosing the desired kitchen appliances, it is important to consider the size of the room. If the area is small, a more practical option would be to purchase built-in electrical appliances. They are combined with a furniture set, can be hidden behind the doors of the facades or remain open. Built-in furnishings have a number of advantages:
- compact arrangement – the equipment uses every free centimeter, saving space;
- neatness - there are no gaps between the devices where dust and debris can get clogged;
- aesthetics – furniture and technical equipment create a harmonious interior in the same style.
Disadvantages include high price and difficulty in replacing built-in equipment. Devices placed separately are more economical in cost, they are easier to select and install without the help of a specialist. But when we choose “solo” household appliances for the kitchen, we are faced with the following difficulties in using them:
- the appearance does not create a complete picture, it does not fit well into the interior, and contrasts with the furniture;
- in small rooms it looks cumbersome and interferes with free movement;
- electrical equipment is installed at a distance of 10–15 cm from the walls, so it is impractical to consume a lot of space;
- Cleaning becomes more difficult; from time to time, the side panels must be thoroughly washed to remove dirt and grease, and in order to remove debris, the equipment must be moved away.
There is no need to give up free-standing appliances. In rooms with a large area they fit more harmoniously, and manufacturers produce many stylish models of different sizes and designs. However, when deciding what equipment to install, more and more people are choosing the practicality and aesthetics of a kitchen set with built-in appliances.
Advantages and disadvantages
Users note the following advantages of NEFF dishwashers:
- German build quality;
- complete protection against leaks;
- detailed instructions with illustrations;
- long service life;
- wide functionality.
Like all devices, NEFF machines have their weaknesses:
- There is no drying mode for some models;
- the sound signal is loud and sharp;
- Problems often arise with the door closer.
How to choose a NEFF dishwasher?
There are many models on the market.
To choose the most suitable one, pay attention to these factors:
- the number of dishes that can be accommodated;
- cleaning class;
- water consumption per cycle;
- type of drying;
- modes;
- noise during operation;
- protection against leaks.
Capacity
Dishwashers come in full size (60 cm wide) or narrow (45 cm wide).
The narrow built-in model holds up to 10 sets of dishes, the full-size one – up to 17. 6 items are counted as a set.
Full-size models are suitable if you need to wash dishes for a large family or if you often receive guests. Models with a width of 45 centimeters will cope with fewer kitchen utensils, but will fit into a small kitchen.

A convenient and beautiful refrigerator, roomy and quite large, although it does not look bulky at all. does not make noise or rumble, behaves calmly. The doors are comfortable, in general I really liked the design - it’s neat and beautiful, there are no unnecessary details. Everything inside is also well designed, the materials are high quality and strong, the shelves are made reliably and evenly. Great freezer! Spacious and large, with three drawers, so it’s convenient to store a large amount of food there. But the main thing is that it freezes VERY well, conscientiously. If I put meat in the freezer, I need to take it out of there in advance before starting to cook) there is a very useful function - if the lights suddenly go out, the food in the refrigerator is stored for another 13 hours in the same condition as before the shutdown. In general, security is well thought out here. If, for example, I keep the door open for a long time, the refrigerator reminds me with a special sound that it’s time to close it and stop endlessly choosing food)) it’s also very useful that the display is excellent, you can always check what the current temperature is in the refrigerator and freezer .

A very convenient and fairly large refrigerator, and despite its impressive internal volume, it does not take up much space in the kitchen. It freezes food well; there are no complaints about its performance at all! The freezer is wonderful, spacious and neatly made. The refrigerator is not noisy! It does not rattle or rattle, it works quietly and calmly. The defrosting process does not cause any trouble, since it is automatic. The controls are convenient and simple; you can always see the temperature inside on the display. If the temperature changes, increases or decreases, I always know about it because there is a beep. There are also useful modes like super freezing. Security is well thought out - in the event that the power suddenly goes out, and this sometimes happens, the food is stored in the refrigerator for another 13 hours. The refrigerator doors are conveniently made, close well, and you don’t need to keep an eye on them every time or make an effort to slam them shut. This model looks interesting, there is nothing superfluous in the design, all the details are in place, everything is well thought out.

I liked this refrigerator because, despite its standard size, it has a large refrigerator compartment and a smaller freezer. This is an ideal option for me, as I hardly freeze anything for future use, I prefer to cook only from fresh ingredients. The upper chamber has as many as 5 wide shelves instead of 4 in the standard, plus another large drawer for storing vegetables. I didn’t really like that after purchase there was an unpleasant plastic smell in the refrigerator; after two days it certainly disappeared, but it was still not pleasant to put food in it. Otherwise, I didn’t find any serious disadvantages. The refrigerator is quiet, energy consumption class A++, if you don’t close the door for a long time, it beeps. Doesn't take up much space in the kitchen. In general, everything is fine so far.

The freezer box broke a month after purchase. I had to order it from the service center. There is also a smell from the refrigerator compartment, although the seller praised the advantage of low-frost technology or whatever. It works very loudly. It’s a pity that we gave in to persuasion, of course. I don’t recommend it at all, although a friend told me about the modern Bosch that it is no longer what it was before.

Very good refrigerator! I liked that it is quite roomy and voluminous, all the products can easily fit there. The design is nice, the refrigerator is easily built in and does not take up much space thanks to its successful design. Doesn't make noise when working, behaves quietly and calmly. Freezes great! Products remain fresh for a long time. There are no problems with defrosting, everything happens quickly and, most importantly, automatically. There is no ice. I also liked that the inside of the refrigerator is made very intelligently, all the shelves are neat and level. In addition, it is possible to fix them so that they do not move out and are always static. The display is made with high quality, it is clear and attractive, it always shows what the current temperature is in the refrigerator and freezer. There are many modes, including super freezing. The freezer is good, with two spacious drawers. The meat lasts for a very long time!
Innovative technologies used in Neff dishwashers
The Neff brand produces models with a number of innovations that distinguish them from products of other brands. Of particular interest are models aimed at the middle and upper class consumer segment. They reveal the maximum potential of the manufacturer, as they have wide functionality. Among the latest innovations introduced by the company are:
- Vario Flex Pro. The latest placement system based on folding guides. This technology allows you to wash even large serving items or large pots and pans. Glasses and mugs are placed on special supports; in some models, up to 18 pieces can be placed.
- Chef Technology is designed to eliminate the most severe contaminants. In fact, it combines three combined functions at once: intensive cleansing, zone with intense impact, emergency drying. Since the lower compartment experiences the most powerful spraying, the dishes in it are washed faster and better. And the result is perfected by steam exposure and temperatures above 70 degrees.
- Time light. This innovation allows you to get all the information about the operation of the product while the display is hidden. The indicator light projects basic information directly onto the kitchen floor.
- Door-opening Sensor. The technology involves the introduction of a sensor that responds to touch. To open the dishwasher door, simply press lightly on the front of the cabinet. This solution is perfect for a small kitchen, as the problem of protruding handles will no longer be present. They will no longer take up useful space.

Roomy.
With a modest size. Right-hand and left-hand opening. Unnoticeable. They hid it in one of the closets. Inaudible. Noise level is low. It's as if he doesn't exist. The laptop is noisy, but you can't hear it. No freezer. We don't need her. Assembled in West Germany at the main plant. Comment:
We are settling in after moving to a new office. After the air conditioner, we purchased a refrigerator. It became Neff K4316 X7RU. One of my colleagues insisted on choosing a refrigerator from this manufacturer and contributed a significant portion of the costs. Was right.
Errors when purchasing
Do not rush to purchase household appliances in the same showroom as kitchen furniture - often the choice of manufacturers and models there is limited. If a purchased or custom-made set is already ready, you can select the equipment for “installation” yourself by taking accurate measurements of the niches. One of the most convenient options is to make furniture for the selected stove, refrigerator, microwave, and other appliances.
There may be other mistakes in the question of how to choose built-in appliances for the kitchen:
- 1
strict adherence to the same colors, textures, styles. Such combinations look boring, so it’s worth experimenting by combining wood, glass and metal, retro and high-tech, glossy and matte surfaces; - 2
technical situation from one manufacturer. Many brands are strong in certain positions (for example, only refrigerators), so do not be afraid to combine equipment from different companies (this is facilitated by a wide selection of sizes, functionality, and design of different devices); - 3
the desire to “build in” all devices. You can even combine small coffee machines, steamers, toasters with furniture, but sometimes free-standing equipment is more convenient to use and looks more attractive; - 4
trust only in foreign manufacturers. Domestic brands are not always inferior in quality and functionality, but they are cheaper.
Advice: Do not give up the necessary equipment due to lack of free space - it is better to analyze the market in more detail. Many brands are developing technological equipment of compact dimensions: dishwashers with a width of 45 cm, hobs with 2 burners, removable modules for grilling, cooking poultry and others.
Neff or BOSCH which is better?
At the end of the month, the ordered kitchen arrives. I have decided on all the equipment except the oven, since many people know that I love to cook, I want not to make a mistake in choosing. In general, who uses what?? Share your opinions I myself am at a crossroads: BOSCH (https://www.bosch-bt.ru/products/cat158/HBN360661/) -21700 +5000 for telescopic skids, 24 programs for meat GORENJE (https://www.gorenje. ru/catalog/vstraivaemaya_tehnika/duhovki/nezavisimye_duhovki/2/) telescopic skids, probe, 4 baking sheets, even a pizza stone. 23000r AEG (https://www.aeg-electrolux.ru/node146.asp?ProdID=8142) skids, probe, 21500
MIELE - not a high price for the same functionality. NEFF - didn’t like stainless steel
Wow, the compact one doesn’t work, so to speak, the design, but in general I wanted it with a micro, but for 56 liters the price tag is already under fifty dollars!! Valera, I didn’t understand about Bosch, are you happy or not?
I thought the survey was open
