One of the possibilities still often used also in advanced countries is manual or hybrid dismantling of end-of-life products. Because there are quite high work force costs in manual dismantling, it seems to be more efficient to manually dismantle bigger consumer products as small products. Our study is trying to verify this statement through evaluation and comparison of economic efficiency of manual dismantling of two different consumer electronic products (washing machine and mobile phone). In the case of washing machine, there is a much of metal (about 60 %) in its body in comparison with mobile phone which contains only about 4 % of metal parts in its weight, so the revenues and final loss of dismantling are accordingly influenced by this. The total loss from dismantling of one washing machine is calculated as - 3,112 EUR and for one mobile phone is equal to -0,5538 EUR. From the calculated numbers we found out, that for comparison of economic efficiency of dismantling of different products would be better not to compare absolute loss for one product, but to compare ratio of loss to average product price.
