KEY POINTS

  • Loch Electronics released the $459.99 countertop Capsule dishwasher aimed at tiny homes and vanlifers.
  • The device disinfects dishes and gadgets at up to 75°C and completes a wash in as little as 20 minutes.
  • The reviewer tested it inside a tiny beach home and during a two-month roadtrip, praising its bacterial and viral neutralizing power.

Loch Electronics just dropped its $459.99 Capsule, the countertop dishwasher that turns tiny houses and vans into bacterial warzones at one hot and heavy 75 degrees Celsius (167°F). Designed for nomads on beaches or two-month van roadtrips, this petite powerhouse scrubs and dries exactly two place settings in 20 minutes flat — basically a sassy kitchen mercenary that also annihilates viruses on your gadgets because apparently dishwashers are the new sanitizers. Tested in a cramped tiny home next to a Nespresso machine and cutting boards, the Capsule earned rave reviews as the unsexy but essential vanlife MVP, proving that luxury may be portable but germs are not invited.
