Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 15437Jan 02, 2020 11:43 am GLO Hi everyone, For those that have moved in, how are you finding the Ilve Dishwasher? Ours are always wet and we have to leave it open to dry. I cant find the drying function in the unit which my old Fisher and Paykel DishDrawer did a great job. Please let me know as im no better off than hand washing at the moment for a family of 6. I thought I was the only one!! We have to leave our door open after the wash otherwise the dishes dont dry. Even when we do this we find the cutlery holder is constantly wet. We havent been able to work out the manual so all we have been using is the 90min program Building Wisdom Homes Majestic 35 Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 15438Jan 04, 2020 8:54 am Ninsta GLO Hi everyone, For those that have moved in, how are you finding the Ilve Dishwasher?

Either way, great selection! Bet you can't wait to see what the real thing looks like. What is always interesting to see is when it's built on a large scale and how much the lighting can change the perspective of the colours.
