RV dishwasher

I have been searching high and low for a RV dishwasher.
Not just any RV dishwasher, but one that meets my criteria.

I finally found one.

It is small so it doesn’t take up much space.
It also uses very little water.
It can be used on electric mode when you have hook-ups.
I can be used on non-electric mode when boondocking.
And even though it is small it can clean the largest pot you have.

Lol Good one! But we added a real dishwasher to our airstream, and it is grrrrreat! It saves us lots of time, water (especially when we are trying not to fill the grey too fast) and money (eventually, in paper products.) we have ten of us in one trailer, so it's a lot if dishes. It's one of the best additions we have made.

We found great dishwashers that also do a good job of drying, right at the end of our arms.

How about some details, name, brand, where you got it.
Thanks

It's a Koldfront countertop model and I modified the area where the microwave used to be and built it in. I put a convection micro oven in so we had the open space. It's approximately 17"x22" My wife found it online for around 200 and it comes in silver too. You can see the model number in the picture.

How do you directly tie it into electricity and hot water, if it is meant to be a countertop with a 110V plug and connection to the kitchen faucet.

Ours is on order and will go into the same space. With three kids, washing dishes is a chore I can do without.

Yes, with seven kids the dishwasher is one of our favorite parts of the Airstream!

Some dishwasher installation pictures:







Without a doubt, the best upgrade we've made this year. Not having to worry about dishes for five people has been wonderful. An added side benefit is that it keeps the sink clean from cluttered dirty dishes. I don't know exactly how much water it is using but the water pump was running for less than a minute to complete an entire cycle. We used water as we always do and still had ample supplies at the end of a four day weekend.

If you have the space, I highly recommend this.

What did you put in? If I had to choose only one alliance to sludge on, it would be this one. Disabled, and by the time I cook, I hurt. Then washing up and bending over the sink is terribly painful. Would love to know what you use. Link?
