    Assuming you already have a plumbed in sink?
    :D
  • Hi,

    can't find manual for washer in your link, but here is similar scoot to page 9 for installation instructions.

    Were you thinking of something that you pour water into, dishes get washed and then emptied?

    Here's in idea, could save you money.

    I think you'll struggle to find one that doesn't need plumbing in, but that shouldn't be a problem as you can buy special plumbing adaptors that make it easy to add a new appliance water supply and drain point.

    The ones you link to will need plumbing in. You can't just fill it & let it go, it will need new water in & old water out several times during the cycle.
    Tall, dark & handsome. Well two out of three ain't bad.

    I have an old Bosch table top dishwasher similar to the one posted above
    You do need to fit a water supply hose, there is no other way to get the water in.
    You can use a Y piece adapter from your washing machine supply, it's a DIY job.
    The waste pipe is a standard size flexible hose. You can just stick the end of it into a sink and it will work fine, so no plumbing needed there. If it's not near the sink you could just put the end of the hose in a bucket under the counter, as long as you remember to empty it!
    Or if you want it a bit tidier you can buy a sink drain that has an inlet for dishwasher hoses. That should be a DIY job too.
