Pretty sure it's smaller, but it's been a while since I visited there, and I'm too lazy to rewatch the video for dimensions...

Was just browsing Amazon and Canadian Tire.  Those seem to be well regarded and only around $300 CDN.  Might need one for the garage or electronics bench ;)

The maximum load for an appliance on a non-dedicated circuit is 1500W.

That doesn't make SpecialK's statement incorrect for a 15A circuit.
Your number is a recommendation for a continuous load appliance (stuff that runs for hours at a time which should be treated as 125% of it's nominal value). However a dishwasher really isn't a continuous load appliance. Of course it's also true that you have to consider other appliances on the same circuit, especially things you can't avoid using like the refrigerator.

However, since we're talking about a kitchen appliance, it should be noted that kitchens tend to have 20A circuits in the US, at least for houses built in the last 60+ years.

Absolutely! Hacking needless home appliances into lab equipment is fun and saves a lot of money, like upcycling a cheap mini oven into a reflow oven.

What's interesting in that regard is the fact that its firmware lets you program your own cycles, so it would theoretically be trivial to turn it into a PCB washer!

thers a uv option,so not only washing the boards but developing them to.Wonder if it can cope with etching fluid instead of water?

It’s a UV-C option, which is the wrong wavelength for board development, which apparently is optimized for 365-395nm typically. 
madires:
You got strange ideas about making you own PCBs! ;) I use UV-A to transfer the PCB layout to the photoresist and sodium hydroxide for developing the photoresist afterwards.
