About this solo & couple
Londonist Hospitality CleanMate Lite Compact Desk Dishwasher – Countertop Dishwasher with 4 Wash Programs,
For a rental where you can't fit pipework, a built-in dishwasher usually isn't on the table. The Londonist Hospitality CleanMate Lite Compact Desk Dishwasher – Countertop Dishwasher with 4 Wash Programs, is built for exactly that gap: a 6L built-in water tank, several wash programmes, and a compact capacity, with no pipework of any kind.
The several wash programmes on offer are there to match the cycle to the load rather than washing everything the same way — a quick setting for glasses and mugs that only need a rinse, something longer and hotter for pans with dried-on food. Fruit wash is a genuinely separate setting rather than a repurposed rinse, so produce doesn't pick up detergent residue from a normal cycle. It's rated for compact everyday use, which covers a typical day's crockery for solo & couple households without needing to run it more than once.
Because there's no plumbed connection, setup is genuinely fast: unpack it, fill the 6L tank from the kitchen tap, load the basket, and start the first cycle. At the end of a cycle, drying is passive rather than heated on most tabletop machines, so cracking the door once the cycle ends speeds things along.
Finished in White, it's built to sit on a worktop rather than disappear behind a cabinet front, so the finish and a compact footprint are worth checking against your counter space before ordering. At £205.99, it sits with the rest of the tabletop category on price — the trade you're making against a full-size built-in dishwasher is capacity and a permanent plumbed connection, in exchange for something you can unplug, pack up and take with you if you move.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does a countertop dishwasher work without plumbing?
It holds its own water in a 6L 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.
Does this model really need no plumbing?
Yes. Everything runs from a 6L 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.
Are countertop dishwashers actually worth it?
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.
How long does a wash cycle take?
Exact cycle times aren't listed in our product record. As a general guide, tabletop dishwashers typically offer a shorter rinse cycle alongside a longer, hotter wash for heavily soiled loads — check the specifications above for this model's programme count.
Does a countertop dishwasher need a drain?
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.
How many place settings does it hold?
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.
What wash programmes are included?
There are several wash programmes, covering everyday loads through to heavier soiling and a fruit wash setting.
How much electricity does it use?
This model draws 800W, roughly in line with a kettle running for the length of a cycle. Actual running cost depends on which of the several wash programmes you choose, since shorter and cooler cycles use noticeably less than a longer, hotter wash.
Can I use normal dishwasher tablets in it?
Yes, standard tablets, powder or gel all work. Because a 6L 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.
How noisy is it?
An exact decibel rating isn't confirmed in our product record, but tabletop dishwashers in this class are generally designed to run in open-plan kitchens without needing you to leave the room.
Will it fit on my worktop?
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.
Is it a good option for a flat or rental?
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.
What colour does it come in?
This listing is finished in White.
Does it have a child lock?
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.
Can I delay the start time?
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.
Do you deliver, and what does it cost?
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.
Can I return it if it doesn't suit my kitchen?
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.
Does it come with a warranty?
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.
The complete guide
Does the Londonist Hospitality dishwasher fit under a wall cabinet?
4 min readNoPlumb
Height under wall cabinets is the dimension to check carefully before ordering, since it varies by finish within this listing and standard UK cabinet clearance — often 45 to 50cm above the worktop — doesn't always leave enough room for a tabletop dishwasher plus loading clearance.
A few kitchens solve this by placing the machine on an end run of worktop with no cabinet above it, or on an island or peninsula where overhead clearance isn't a constraint at all. Where that's not an option, measuring with a tape before ordering is worth the two minutes it takes — a machine that's a centimetre or two too tall for the gap is a genuinely common return reason in this category, and one that's entirely avoidable with a quick check.
If the fit is tight rather than impossible, it's worth checking whether the model's feet are adjustable or removable, since a few millimetres of clearance can be the difference. Beyond height, remember the door needs to open outward and slightly upward to load — a cabinet handle or shelf edge just above the machine can catch the door even when the machine itself clears the gap, so check that swing as well as the static height.
