HDA3520, HDA3530 specifications

The Hotpoint HDA3530 and HDA3520 dishwashers are designed to make dish cleaning easier and more efficient for households looking for reliable kitchen appliances. With their modern features and impressive technology, they stand out in the market as practical solutions for busy home cooks.

One of the main features of both models is their spacious interiors, which can accommodate up to 14 place settings. This generous capacity is perfect for families or anyone who regularly entertains guests, allowing for fewer loads and more time spent enjoying meals. The adjustable rack system provides flexibility in loading, making it easy to fit in larger pots and pans alongside everyday dishes.

The HDA3530 and HDA3520 are equipped with the industry-leading Direct Feed Wash System. This technology ensures a consistent spray of water reaches every corner of the dishwasher, providing a thorough clean even for heavily soiled items. Additionally, these models boast an Energy Star certification, making them energy-efficient options that not only save on utility bills but also contribute to eco-friendliness.

Both models feature a variety of wash cycles, including Heavy, Normal, and Quick Wash options. The Heavy cycle is particularly useful for baked-on foods, while the Quick Wash option is ideal for lightly soiled dishes that need to be cleaned in a hurry. The delay start feature allows users to program the dishwasher to run at a more convenient time, such as during off-peak hours.

In terms of noise levels, the HDA3530 and HDA3520 are designed to operate quietly, with sound-dampening technology that makes them one of the quieter options in their class. This is especially beneficial for open-concept living spaces where noise can be an issue.

Both models also come equipped with a stainless steel tub, which enhances durability while helping to maintain optimal cleaning conditions. The interior design features a filter system that effectively collects food particles, ensuring they do not redeposit on clean dishes.

Lastly, the user-friendly electronic controls make it simple to select cycles and options, with clear indicators that provide peace of mind when it comes to performance and maintenance. With their combination of capacity, efficiency, and advanced cleaning technologies, the Hotpoint HDA3530 and HDA3520 dishwashers prove to be excellent choices for anyone in need of reliable dishwashing solutions.
