In the 2020 Finder Retail Awards, we surveyed over 14,000 Australians about their retail purchases to discover which were their favourite brands across 156 product categories.
For dishwashers, Smeg was ranked 10th for value for money, 2nd for features & functions, 3rd for performance and 3rd for quietness.
12 brands were rated across these decision criteria.
What type of dishwashers does Smeg make?
Smeg offers a range of freestanding and built-under dishwashers for Australian kitchens. Most models are the conventional 60cm width, but the company also offers a 45cm slimline model for narrow spaces.
Smeg dishwashers commonly feature modern finishes such as stainless steel or black, but the Italian manufacturer also offers some of its built-in models with 1950s-style retro finishes to add a design feature to your kitchen.
How much do Smeg dishwashers cost?
Smeg freestanding dishwashers are the cheapest options in the range, with prices ranging from approximately $1,200 to $1,900. Built-under dishwashers tend to be a little more expensive, with models typically priced in the $1,500–$2,200 range.

Important information about this website
Finder makes money from featured partners, but editorial opinions are our own.
findershopping.com.au is one of Australia's leading comparison websites. We are committed to our readers and stand by our editorial principles.
We try to take an open and transparent approach and provide a broad-based comparison service. However, you should be aware that while we are an independently owned service, our comparison service does not include all providers or all products available in the market.
Some product issuers may provide products or offer services through multiple brands, associated companies or different labeling arrangements. This can make it difficult for consumers to compare alternatives or identify the companies behind the products. However, we aim to provide information to enable consumers to understand these issues.
We make money by featuring products on our site. Compensation received from the providers featured on our site can influence which products we write about as well as where and how products appear on our page, but the order or placement of these products does not influence our assessment or opinions of them, nor is it an endorsement or recommendation for them.
Products marked as 'Top Pick', 'Promoted' or 'Advertisement' are prominently displayed either as a result of a commercial advertising arrangement or to highlight a particular product, provider or feature. Finder may receive remuneration from the Provider if you click on the related link, purchase or enquire about the product. Finder's decision to show a 'promoted' product is neither a recommendation that the product is appropriate for you nor an indication that the product is the best in its category. We encourage you to use the tools and information we provide to compare your options.
Where our site links to particular products or displays 'Go to site' buttons, we may receive a commission, referral fee or payment when you click on those buttons or apply for a product.
When products are grouped in a table or list, the order in which they are initially sorted may be influenced by a range of factors including price, fees and discounts; commercial partnerships; product features; and brand popularity. We provide tools so you can sort and filter these lists to highlight features that matter to you.
Please read our website terms of use and privacy policy for more information about our services and our approach to privacy.
We update our data regularly, but information can change between updates. Confirm details with the provider you're interested in before making a decision.
