Handy, but quirky
Pros: Size, of course - that's why you're looking at it. It seems to wash very well, with three loads through it so far and everything's come out clean with varying degrees of prep cleaning. Quiet - despite being on an entirely wooden and hollow counter, it is suprisingly quiet. You can hear it, of course, but you can have a phone conversation standing closer than two feet away from the unit. It's inexpensive. It comes with all the hardware you need unless you have some specialized faucet in your kitchen.
Cons: The manual is horrendous - I still have no clue what the indicators are on the cycle selector knob, and what they mean. You also have very little idea as to by what miracle of engineering you can fit the alleged four full place settings in the unit. It says, and I'm not kidding, four dinner plates, four salad plates, four bowls, four glasses, two serving spoons, and some other stuff I can't remember will all fit in the unit at once. Ummm.... no. Not that I'd want to overload the unit, anyway, but you couldn't if you tried. My chief complaint is that there is too much space between the wires on the bottom of the rack, and you have to be exceedingly careful how to stack items in it, or they'll fall through and render the spinning cleaning unit immobile. I had to open the unit up twice the first time I used it to rearrange the items so that they wouldn't do this.
Overall, not a bad unit. Crap internal rack, and a manual that's basically worthless in three languages, but otherwise not a bad unit.
We'll see how it holds up in light of all the previous reviews.

The best time-saver ever!!!
Me and my wife had to struggle to get time out of our busy schedules to wash dishes. Now its a 2-minute job. And the machine works perfectly. Except for a minor problem with the dial getting stuck sometimes, this machine is trouble-free!

Wonderful
I love this machine. We have had it for just over a year now and I think it just may have saved our relationship! ;) This little baby holds quite a lot of dishes too! I did notice that it occationally gets stuck (between the pots cycle and regular dishes cycle) but if you just turn the dial all the way around once then let it continue, its ok. And that hasn't even happened often--2-3 times in the last year.

Great--for a while
This is my second Danby dishwasher. These dishwashers are great. They get things very clean, are easy to use and set up, and are reasonably attractive, especially the stainless steel interior. We keep it on a counter next to the sink in our small apartment, and it works out just fine.
However, these dishwashers only last two years. Then they break down, and we could not find anyone on Danby's list of repairers who would fix it. So we had to throw it away (we were able to give it away on Craigslist to some handy person). My husband didn't want to buy another one, only to have it break down two years later, but it is really the best countertop dishwasher out there. After about a year of washing dishes, I talked him into buying another one. I wish Danby would make a longer lasting product, or find a reliable way to provide repair service for customers.

Best Investment this Year
This little guy cleans better then any full size washer I have ever used. It uses up counter space, but it's the same counter space that would be used for drying dishes. I can not say enough good things about this small but powerful machine. They are not expensive new, but they are often available used from people moving to a bigger place. It does not fit as much as a full size, but I'm not sure I ever want to go back to a full size. Why go big when big is not better.
