Choosing a Teca dishwasher? Our review lists brand features, the pros and cons of specific models, and customer reviews.
If you already have this dishwasher, the article will explain the error codes that may appear on the display.
Features of Teka models
The manufacturer took care of protecting the PMM case against leakage. All Teka vehicles are equipped with full or partial Aquastop.
Full protection provides for the presence in the pan of the sensor, which sends a signal to the main module about the leak. As a result, the water supply is shut off. Additionally, a hose with a sponge inside is connected. If water escapes, the sponge swells and blocks the flow.
Partial Aquastop provides only a mechanical hose without a sensor.
All cars have indicators on the panel. They light up as soon as salt or rinse aid ends in the compartment. Therefore, the user knows when to add the tool.
The equipment is not insured against breakdowns. A modern diagnostic system quickly finds the problem and displays the fault code on the display. You can find the value in the operating instructions or in the table below.
As soon as you notice a malfunction, try resetting the code. It could be a system failure. To do this, disconnect the machine from the network for 15-20 minutes, and then resume the connection.

I used to use the Bosch technique, so there is nothing to compare. Teka is not very pleased with the work. There are “dead zones” in the bunker where the dishes are not washed. Sprayers are simply not designed for full area processing. But it worked until a breakdown occurred - the pump jammed. I barely found a service center, repairs are very expensive, so it’s easier to buy a new machine, but certainly not of this brand.
Teka DW7 64 FI
Built-in full-size PMM. 14 sets of dishes will be washed in one cycle. The energy class is A ++, and 0.93 kWh is consumed during normal operation. Water consumption is 11 liters.
On the electronic panel, you can install 8 programs, among which there is a usual, delicate, quick wash, pre-soak. Half load: no need to wait for enough dirty dishes to accumulate. With ½ download, you can save on resource consumption. Delayed start is possible up to 24 hours.
Integrated turbidity sensor. It determines the degree of purity of water, on which the number of rinses depends. Complete leakage protection.
Case dimensions: 60x55x82 cm.
Price - from 40 000 rubles.

I decided to buy a Teka dishwasher, since there was already a hob of this brand. Very pleased with the acquisition. Clear installation instructions, good roominess.
There are symbols on the panel, so choosing a mode is not difficult. The keys are on the end of the door.
I usually choose a cycle time of 90 minutes. Just the dishes are washed well, including pots and pans. Drying is condensation. Immediately better not to get the appliances, otherwise it will overtake with hot steam. I pull out half an hour after completion.
The cutlery basket is never fully filled, roomy. The containers slide out smoothly thanks to these wheels. I advise this model to everyone! The result will please you.
Teka DW8 60 FI
The machine measuring 59.6x55x82 cm can be fully integrated into the kitchen. For one load, you can wash 12 sets of dishes. Water consumption is 12 liters, and electricity - 1.05 kW per hour. The reduced noise level of 45 dB allows you to run the dishwasher at night.
There are 10 programs:
- Normal, intensive and express wash.
- Economy mode.
- Pre-soaking.
- ½ download.
- Delayed start from 1 to 24 hours.
- Turbo dryer. The model has an additional heater and fan. The latter distills the hot air in the chamber and dries the appliances.
Additionally, a turbidity sensor is built-in, at the end of the cycle an audible signal is emitted. Complete Aquastop protection. You can start the wash and go about your business without worrying that a leak will occur.
Price - from 20 000 rubles.

At the time of purchase, the Teka DW8 60 FI did not find any negative reviews. Photos on the Internet pleased. But in practice, everything was not so colorful. The equipment does not wash dishes well, makes noise, stains remain on the plates. And dried up pollution is not completely eliminated even on a long program.
I have already changed the pills, air conditioning - nothing helps. The upper holders in the basket constantly come off the hooks, while the plates fall on top of each other. After contacting the service, it turned out that everything was working properly, the rest were features of the dishwasher. This is probably why it is difficult to find reviews on the PMM of this brand. I do not advise buying this misunderstanding.
Now you know the opinions of consumers about PMA "Theka". Buying them or giving preference to another brand is your choice.
