Whether you have a large busy household or simply crave more downtime after a long day at work, a Beko dishwasher can save you valuable time. All the dishwashers in our range come with the Mini 30’ programme that washes a full load in just 30 minutes, with select models washing and drying in 45 minutes! With a Beko dishwasher, you can spend less time in the kitchen and more time with those you love.
Yes, a dishwasher can save a significant amount of time. While the wash cycle itself may take longer than handwashing, the main benefit is that you don't need to stand at the sink scrubbing and rinsing dishes. You simply load the dishwasher, let it run, and unload once it's finished.
Dishwashers are also more hygienic than washing by hand, as they use higher temperatures to remove grease, bacteria and food residue more effectively.
The average dishwasher consumes around 1.2 to 1.5 kWh per cycle. This can vary based on the model, the wash cycle selected, and how full the dishwasher is. Based on an average energy use of 1.35 kWh and the UK electricity rate of 27.7p per kWh (1st January to 31st March 2026), the cost works out at approximately 37p per cycle.
Quick wash cycles are best suited for lightly soiled dishes such as plates, cups, glasses and cutlery that have been recently used and don't have dried-on food or heavy grease.
They're ideal when you need clean items quickly, but for pots, pans or heavily soiled cookware, a longer or more intensive programme will deliver better results.
Beko's Auto programme typically takes around 2 hours 34 minutes to 3 hours 36 minutes, depending on the temperature selected.
If you need quicker results, the Mini programme is ideal for lightly soiled dishes and completes a wash in just 30 minutes. Selected models also feature Fast45, which can wash and dry a full load in 45 minutes.
