HAVA R01 (US version)

A tank removes the need to attach an inlet hose for every wash. It does not remove the need to drain wastewater safely or refill the machine.

We would use this type for small daily loads in a space where a full-size dishwasher is not feasible. Large cookware is a poor reason to choose it.

HAVA’s current page and older FAQ differ slightly on fit measurements. Use the current product dimensions as a planning guide and verify tight clearances before purchase.

The US and European electrical versions are different. Check the listing and rating label instead of relying on the R01 name alone.

Manual filling changes the daily routine

The HAVA is useful when avoiding a permanent faucet connection is worth the smaller load. Think through where you will fill its tank, where the drain outlet will be secured and whether the door can open without consuming the space you need to load it. A compact footprint alone does not answer those questions.

COMFEE CDC17P0ABB provides a similar five-litre-tank comparison. Both manufacturers describe very small loads, so a large dinner plate or bowl can be more important than the place-setting headline. For COMFEE, conflicting height information deserves confirmation; for HAVA, make sure the offer is the US electrical version. Do not select an import solely because the product photograph looks identical.

Compare before you choose

Choose between these tank models using confirmed physical clearance, plate fit and the correct US electrical variant, rather than assuming five litres means identical capacity.
