    • Number Of Racks: 3
    • Tub Finish: Stainless steel (Certain coatings or materials on the inside of the dishwasher, such as stainless steel, are more durable, retain heat better, and can withstand higher temperatures than materials such as plastic.

  • Features
    • Hard Food Disposer: true (This feature has blades to chop and disintegrate hard food particles, making them small enough to easily drain away. This prevents them from being recirculated back onto dishware and allows for easy maintenance.)
    • Drying Method: Heated drying (Appliances that use heat to dry the dishes will include a heating element or minerals which transform moisture into heat. A fan or vent then circulates the hot dry air throughout the tub during the drying cycle. This may reduce drying time and the risk of water spots. Appliances that use minerals to produce heat are considered more energy efficient than those that include a heating element. Appliances that use condensation drying are considered more energy efficient than those that use heated drying. Instead, high temperature water is produced during the final rinse cycle which warms the interior and eventually condensates and drains out of the machine.)
    • Operating Sound Level: 42 decibels adjusted (Today's appliances are pretty quiet. To get a sense for how quiet you'll need, think about having a conversation in the same room. Choose from Not as Quiet (56 dBA or higher. You'll likely need to raise your voice); Quiet (50-55 dBA. Need to raise your voice slightly); Very Quiet (43-49 dBA. Easily have a conversation right next the appliance); and Nearly Silent (42 dBA or lower. You'll hardly know the appliance is on).)
    • Delay Start: true (Allows you to program the appliance to automatically run at a later time. This feature helps you coordinate with your household’s water needs, noise preferences, and more. Additionally, operating your appliance during off-peak hours may reduce energy costs.)

    Good performance - questionable cost-cutting

    Replacing my faithful but very old budget Kenmore dishwasher, I thought I'd spend a little more money and get something in a different class of quality and performance. For starters, it does clean well, but I cant say it's really better than my budget Kenmore in that department. It is certainly quieter for most of the cycle, though when draining water it's about the same, being the loudest part of the cycle. Drying performance is good but not perfect. Due to design of racks, many bowls tend to fall flat, capturing pools of water. And all of this is WITH rinse aid. Don't bother using it without rinse aid. It basically requires it to work. A little goes a long way though, only needing to be topped off once a month or so. The controls are wonderful. Big bright display shows how much time is left and can be read even under the counter if flush-mounted. Indicator light above handle makes it clear if its safe to open the door (amber-no, white-all done), and the favorites button allows you to program your favorite routine and activate it with a single button press each time. No wifi or smart features, but just a clean simple and intuitive control scheme that makes confidently operating this machine simple even the first time in. What really disappointed me was the build quality. The lower frame is not once piece but multiple flimsy pieces of thin sheet metal that bends in your fingers. Sliding this machine under your counter without bending the frame is near impossible. The feet get caught on anything, even a grout line, and they just fold in on themselves, taking the whole machine with it. And the door, it's balanced so it can be stopped at any position, but it uses some string and cheap creaky springs to accomplish this, which you can hear and feel when opening and closing. Overall it's a good performer with some questionable cost cutting in the design stages. I may have made a different decision if I bought this in person and got to inspect it first, but I got it online and by the time it was in my kitchen I really didnt want to bother bringing it back and returning it. I really expected better build quality for the near-$1000 price range, but operation is effortless and intuitive.
