AIRMSEN TDQR09 Countertop Dishwasher Review
Our verdict
A lightweight, quiet countertop dishwasher in a two-tone Black & White finish. Very new to market with only a handful of reviews, so buyers should weigh that against its otherwise appealing specs.

6 owner reviews, fewer than most models here
The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other vacuum sealers, built-in and countertop dishwashers, food slicers, meat and grain grinders, spice mills and kitchen prep appliances we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
The AIRMSEN TDQR09 is a compact countertop dishwasher that runs on a built-in 1.2-gallon water tank, so no faucet adapter is needed. It measures 16.73 x 16.85 x 18 inches and tips the scale at just 14.6 lb, making it one of the lighter options in this category. The Black & White two-tone exterior is a clean look that fits modern kitchens without looking industrial.
At 50 dB, the TDQR09 sits on the quieter end of the countertop dishwasher spectrum. Most models in this size class land between 52 and 62 dB, so the 50 dB rating is a genuine advantage in open-plan living spaces or small apartments where noise travels. It runs on standard 120-volt outlets, so no special wiring is needed.
The biggest caveat here is review volume. With only 6 ratings at the time of writing, the 4.5-star average is encouraging but not yet statistically reliable. At $369.99 it prices above some well-established alternatives with thousands of reviews. Shoppers who want proven long-term reliability may prefer to wait for more feedback to accumulate, or consider a competing model with a deeper review base.
Pros
- One of the lightest countertop dishwashers at 14.6 lb, easy to move or store
- 50 dB noise rating is quieter than most rivals in this size range
- Tank-based design needs no faucet hookup, plug-and-play setup
- Standard 120-volt operation, no special outlet required
- Two-tone Black & White finish suits modern kitchen aesthetics
Cons
- Only 6 buyer reviews, making the 4.5-star rating hard to rely on yet
- 1.2-gallon tank capacity limits wash loads to very small dish counts
- Priced at $369.99, which is on the higher end for a unit with so little review history
Performance notes
Based on listed specs, the TDQR09 operates at 50 dB, which is noticeably quieter than the 60 to 62 dB ratings found on several popular competitors. The 1.2-gallon tank is enough for a place setting or two per cycle. Dimensions of 16.73 x 16.85 x 18 inches fit most standard countertops without overhanging cabinets above. Controls are not specified in available product data, so check the current listing for cycle options before buying.
What buyers say
With only 6 reviews posted, there is not enough buyer feedback to draw firm conclusions about real-world reliability or cleaning performance. The early average of 4.5 stars is a positive signal, but prospective buyers should check for updated reviews closer to purchase time. Questions about long-term durability and customer support response remain open at this stage.
