  • Features
    • Hard Food Disposer: false (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: 52 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.)
    • Cycle Status Lights: true (Lights on the control panel that indicate which cycle is in use and/or its current status. Know when to unload with a simple glance.)
    • Filtered Water: true (Internal water filter(s) remove minerals and chemicals from hard water before the wash cycle. Filtered water is less likely to leave mineral deposits or stains, meaning your dishware will look cleaner for longer.)
    • Water Soil Sensor: false (Feature that measures how dirty the water is throughout the wash cycle and adjusts the energy and water usage as needed. This can increase washing efficiency and may reduce energy costs.)
    • Wireless Connectivity: None (The manner in which a device sends data to another device over a short distance without the use of wires or cables.)

    • Number of Cycles: 6 (Standard dishwashers have at least 3 cycles, each with different water pressure, speed, and temperature settings designed for particular loads.)

Q: I have an existing cabinet with an opening that's only 17.75" wide. Can this dishwasher be used without making the opening wider?

A: Hi there, valued customer! Thank you for reaching out to us regarding your inquiry. The enclosure must be at least 17.7 inches wide 23 inches deep and 32.5 inches high. For the front door of the dishwasher to be flush with the leading edge of the countertop, the countertop must be at least 23 inches deep. - Jessica

Q: When this this model is raised from the low 32.5" height to 35", is that done via the leveling legs, and if so, what masks the gap at the floor?

A: The metal trim that comes with the dishwasher will cover the gap. However, I found it still needed a piece of 3/4" trim above the unit. If possible, I'd recommend a 1 1/2" trim above and not crank the legs to their maximum.

Q: 1. How much water does each cycle use? 2. What comes in the box?

A: Thank you for reaching out to us, Bobb! This dishwasher uses 4.9 gallons of water. The installation guide provides a list of materials that come with the appliance, and can be supplied using the following link: https://content.syndigo.com/asset/01eb6681-9d93-4845-8a09-cdb856fe9f15/original.pdf We hope this information was helpful to you. - Damon

Q: Do I need to buy any additional equipment or kits for installation, or does this unit come with everything I need for set up? I’m thinking specifically of the hose that connects the dishwasher to the disposal/plumbing.

A: Hello! Thanks for reaching out. The dishwasher will come with the necessary accessories to complete the installation. The delivery team will reach out to you before delivery. You can always confirm with them as well! Thank you, Christy

Q: Should the dishwasher be flush with cabinets or should it stick out an inch or so? My countertop overhangs the cabinets by at least an inch.

A: Great question, Rudy! For the front door of the dishwasher to be flush with the leading edge of the countertop, the countertop must be at least 23 inches deep. If not it, may stick out about an inch or so. -Ciara

Q: is it a gloss black or flat black finish?

A: Hey, mort! This model dishwasher has a flat black finish. ~Courtney

Q: is the finish a gloss black, flat black and is it a smooth or textured finish?

A: Hey, mort! This model dishwasher has a smooth finish. ~Courtney
