eklipt's tabletop dishwasher for a rental where you can't fit pipework, no plumbing and no installation

It holds its own water in a 4.8L built-in water tank instead of connecting to your pipework. You fill the tank from a tap before a cycle, the machine heats and recirculates that water internally to wash and rinse, and waste water collects in a removable tray or reservoir that you empty afterwards rather than it draining away through a fitted pipe.

Yes. Everything runs from a 4.8L built-in water tank, which you fill from any tap before a cycle. There's no connection to your water supply or waste pipe, so it works anywhere with a plug socket and a worktop. A hose-fill option is also available if you'd rather run it from a tap directly.

For a kitchen with no plumbing for a built-in machine, yes — the alternative is handwashing, not a full-size dishwasher. At its rated capacity per cycle for solo & couple use, it earns its keep on time rather than on matching a built-in machine's capacity, and the trade-off is a manual tank fill in exchange for zero installation cost or disruption.

Exact cycle times aren't listed in our product record, but with 7 programmes on this model, expect a range from a shorter rinse-only setting up to a longer, hotter wash for heavily soiled loads — pick the shortest cycle that suits the load rather than defaulting to the longest one.

No. Waste water from this model collects in an internal or removable tray rather than draining through a fitted pipe, so you empty it by hand after most cycles. That's what makes it usable anywhere with a socket and a worktop, rather than only next to existing plumbing.

It's rated for a compact daily load per cycle — enough for solo & couple use rather than a full week's backlog in one go.

There are 7 programmes, covering everyday loads through to heavier soiling.

This model draws 950W, roughly in line with a kettle running for the length of a cycle. Actual running cost depends on which of the 7 programmes you choose, since shorter and cooler cycles use noticeably less than a longer, hotter wash.

Yes, standard tablets, powder or gel all work. Because a 4.8L built-in water tank holds less water than a full-size dishwasher, a full tablet is dosed for more water than this machine uses — cutting a tablet in half for lighter loads is a common fix if you notice residue on glassware.

It's rated at 60dB, which is quiet enough to run in an open-plan kitchen without needing to leave the room.

Check your worktop depth and height under any wall cabinets before ordering — as a tabletop machine it needs to sit fully on the counter rather than tuck underneath.

Yes — that's the main reason this category exists. It needs no permission to alter plumbing, no drilled worktop and no plumber, so it suits a rental where you can't fit pipework as well as any rental where fitting a built-in dishwasher isn't allowed or isn't practical.

Colour and finish are as shown in the product images; check the listing for the exact variant you're ordering.

A dedicated child lock isn't listed for this model, so keep it out of easy reach of young children while running, as with any countertop appliance.

A delay-start timer isn't listed for this model — it starts when you press go, so time the cycle to when you'll be around to unload it.

Yes, we deliver this item. Your delivery estimate and any charge are calculated at checkout based on your address and shown before you pay, so there are no surprises after the order.

Yes, in line with our returns policy. Keep the original packaging where you can — a tabletop dishwasher is heavy enough that a return goes more smoothly in its original box.

A specific warranty length isn't confirmed in our product record, so we won't state a figure we can't stand behind. Your statutory rights apply, and you're welcome to ask us before ordering if warranty cover matters to you.
