Overview
Countertop and needing no plumbing, the NOVETE TDQR01 dishwasher runs off a 5-liter built-in tank or a direct faucet line, with five wash cycles including a 167°F baby care mode and a 60-minute hot air dry. It holds about 4 place settings, angled up to 12 inches, and is built for apartments, dorms, boats and RVs.
This is a plug-in appliance that needs either the included faucet hose or manual filling from the supplied pitcher, not a sink attachment. One reviewer measured a 10.5-inch plate against the rack before buying and still found it would not close, so check your own plate diameters against the roughly 12-inch angled capacity rather than the marketing photos.
- 5-liter built-in tank or direct faucet hookup
- 5 wash programs including baby care/heavy at 167°F
- 60-minute hot air dry plus 72-hour ventilation storage
- Fits up to 4 place settings, angled to 12 inches
Who it's for
Fits renters, dorm or boat dwellers, and anyone without a hookup for a built-in dishwasher, especially households of 3-4 running a manageable daily load. Less suited to anyone whose dinnerware regularly exceeds about 10-11 inches.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Most buyers who reviewed the NOVETE call the wash quality on par with a full-size dishwasher, citing quiet operation, an easy drain-hose hookup, and reliable performance months after purchase. One buyer found it a clear step up from a Comfee unit that had failed within months. Not everyone is satisfied though: one reviewer said 10.5-inch plates would not fit as shown in the product photos and the rack could not slide back in fully loaded.

Questions about the NOVETE TDQR01
Common buyer questions answered straight from the product spec data - no fluff, no "it depends".
How much water does the NOVETE TDQR01 use per cycle?
It draws from a 5-liter built-in tank or a direct faucet line, and one reviewer who filled it by hand estimated a bit more than a gallon per wash.
Will the NOVETE dishwasher fit under my cabinets?
The unit stands about 18.1 inches tall, so it needs open counter space rather than an under-cabinet slot; check your clearance before buying.
Does the NOVETE TDQR01 have a mode for baby bottles?
Yes, its Baby Care/Heavy program runs at 167°F, which the listing says is intended for baby items and oily tableware.
