How to connect a benchtop dishwasher to a tap?

[MinB]

I am considering buying a benchtop dishwasher, but am not sure what is currently available so as to connect the hose to the kitchen tap. 

5 years ago (YouTube video) a person could buy two parts to make that connection: a) Sink Tap Click On and b) NYLEX brass sprinkler adapter.

Bunnings seems to not sell either anymore.

IMAGES BELOW:

1) MY KITCHEN TAP: Is this ideal for a dishwasher hose to be attached and also easy enough to take the aerator off?

2) TAP CONNECTIONS YOUTUBE: 

This is what BUNNINGS sold 5 years ago so are these still available or is something else now in their place?

3) HOSE HOLDER(?): What is holding this hose up? Does Bunnings sell anything like this, also, a contraption that can keep the drain hose fixed to the sink area whilst the dishwasher is on. 

The USA has this fantastic 3 in one tap connector that is a part of the dishwasher components/parts/kit when sold and it is such a shame that is not available here as it keeps the drain hose in place to face down the sink plus you can press a red button so as to get a glass of water etc.

Anyways, to reiterate, what is available now so that I can attach the hose to the kitchen tap? Don't want to buy anything if it is going to be a hassle getting tap connection parts.

Thanks!

Hi @MinB  Thanks a lot. I tried and it helped me. Instead of putting the tape which was in the packet I used a good Plumbing tape from Bunnings and its working amazingly. Thanks a ton.

Hi @hayleyj,

I completely understand your situation and the desire for a simple solution. However, there are limited options available that are certified for this purpose. Dishwashers are typically designed to be hard plumbed and securely fixed to their water connections to prevent them from popping off under pressure and potentially flooding your home.

The threads on a standard kitchen mixer tap are much finer than those found on dishwasher connection hoses, which is why a special fitting or adapter is often required to make the connection safely. While it might seem like a straightforward task, it’s important to ensure the connection is both secure and leak-proof for your safety.

I am unaware of any singular fitting that will allow your dishwashers connection.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Glad you found some value out of it. 👍

Just so everyone knows - my dishwasher is still going strong and the tap is as well with what was connected or fitted to it to make it work - tweaks and all.
