This time, we will introduce four Panasonic dishwashers. Introducing the latest "slim dishwasher" NP-TSK1 and products for families and single people. Find out why it's perfect for small kitchens.

First of all, the Panasonic dish washer/dryer introduced this time is a desktop type, so there is no need for large-scale construction such as drilling holes in the wall or sink. It can be used in rental apartments and condominiums, so it should be used in various homes.

Easy to install even in limited spaces! Panasonic Desktop Dishwasher "Slim Dishwasher" NP-TSK1

Capacity (number of tableware): 24 Door type: Lift-up open door Drying function: ◯ Standard water consumption: Approx. Quantity: Approximately 670Wh Driving sound (50/60Hz): Approximately 39dB/Approximately 41dB Product weight: Approximately 16kg Size (< > when the door is open): Approximately width 55 x height 50 <61.2> x depth 29 cm actual sales price: about 71,000 yen

The NP-TSK1 features a slim body with a depth of about 29 cm. Since the lift-up open door is used, if there is a space of about 43.8 cm above and about 36.7 cm below with a depth of about 29 cm, you should be able to install it without problems.

The storage capacity is also high, and 24 pieces of tableware (for about 4 people) can be put together. Small items such as cups and silicon cups can be placed in the movable middle basket, and frying pans, pans, and cutting boards can be placed by removing the common compartment for cutlery.

It is also a point that water and power saving effects are higher than hand washing. When washing the dishes for four people, the amount of water used for hand washing is about 51L, while the NP-TSK1 uses about 8L, which is equivalent to about 22 2L plastic bottles. In addition, if you use the NP-TSK1 twice a day, you can expect a power saving effect of about 8,600 yen in a year compared to hand washing.

Simultaneous release of NP-TSP1, a tank-type "slim dishwasher" that does not require a branch faucet

Capacity (Number of tableware): 24 Door type: Lift-up open door Drying function: ◯ Standard water consumption: about 9L (tank type) Power consumption: about 670Wh Driving sound (50/60Hz): about 39dB/about 41dB Product mass: about 19kg Size (< > when the door is open): about width 55 x height 60 <71.2> x Depth 34.1 cm Sales price: 83,000 yen

The NP-TSK1 slim dishwasher, which features a slim body, is a desktop type that does not require large-scale construction such as drilling holes in the wall, but it is necessary to attach a branch faucet to the faucet.

Depending on the type of faucet, it may not be possible to install a branch faucet, so if it is difficult to install, how about the tank type NP-TSP1?

The depth is about 34.1 cm, which is slightly thicker than the NP-TSK1's 29 cm, but it's slim enough for a desktop dishwasher that can wash dishes for about 4 people (24 items).

When using, just fill the water tank with water. The feature is that it can be used immediately after purchase. It is a 2-way type that can be switched to branch faucet water supply later.
