    • Operating Sound Level: 46 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).)

    • 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. These higher quality materials may increase the appliance’s efficiency, but there may be also be extra initial cost. Some models marketed as Hybrid will use both materials in the tub, often using stainless steel on the interior door to increase durability on the part of the appliance with the most common wear and tear.)

  • 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: 46 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.)

Q: How on earth do I reset an error code ?? I have an E9 code that I cannot reset, and I now have to wait 4 hours for a tech to show up and "fix" it. There MUST be an easier way.

A: The E9 code typically develops due to water coming in contact with the top control panel. This happened less when I started using the liquid jet dry to aid in dish drying. If the code comes on it will sometimes correct on it's own as you keep the door closed. If that does not correct it then the sure fire way to reset it is to turn the dishwasher circuit breaker off and back on. Now if you are pluged in instead of hard wired you might just be able to unplug the dishwasher and plug it back in. Hope that helps.

Q: How do I clear error E9. I tried holding down the clear button for 3 sec. this does not work. I also tried pressing other buttons does not work.

A: Not sure what caused it but mine just did the same. I reset power to it and it cleared and is running. I had to reset power at the breaker.

Q: Thinking of buying this one. How is the sound and any serious issues with it?

A: Do not buy this dishwasher! It is a new product that, judging by the unit we have, is of poor quality. Our unit is 2 months old and does not drain. However, because it's so new the repair parts are not available until September. Best Buy has done nothing to correct this to-date (have yet to receive a return call from a manager, supervisor, or hear from anyone in "customer service") and we have been without a working dishwasher for almost a month. I will never buy an appliance from Best Buy again.

Q: I can't turn off the control panel. Ran my first wash just fine, but the control panel won't stop blinking. Hitting the Start/Cancel button doesn't work. I just want to turn in off. And $29.99 install kit hose was too short.

A: It’s always on. We close the door and the control panel is under the counter and you don’t see the light. It’s ready for another load. Just load it, press start and close.

Q: I would like to turn off the LED screen. I have 2 straight lines on the screen that are always on.

A: The good news... You have 2 straight lines on the screen. The bad news... You can't turn them off. 2 lines means that the system is "off". However, the Touch Pad on the top strip of the door is very sensitive and you'll find that you'll have other codes flashing all the time, if you accidentally touch the strip while opening/closing the door. It's very annoying, to say the least!

Q: We just bought this dishwasher, my problem is that the dishes will not dry. Ive used it 3 times so far and the inside of the machine stays wet, the door and all the dishes have condensation on them.Using normal wash and heat dry with jet dry . HELP !!

A: I had the same problem. I added Jet dry and now my dishes, glasses and silverware are dry and extremely clean with every wash. The Jet Dry made all the difference.

Q: is the front of this dishwasher "finished"? I.e does it require a kitchen panel to go on the front or just the plinth or neither? can you switch off the led lights if desired? does it dry the dishes well?

A: Yes,the front of the dishwasher is finished. As for the led lights -there is an issue with the E9 warning light that comes on intermittently at random. The E9 light is malfunctioning and will not go off and the only way I can get the dishwasher to start when this happens is to throw the breaker switch. The Geek Tech has been diligently working to fix this, but the problem is in trying to get a replacement part from INSIGNIA. Apparently the part has been on back order for quite some time. Again, the replacement part was supposed to arrive this week and has not. Seems like INSIGNIA could do better. To answer your question about drying - it dries fine except for plastic. But the problem with the led is a major pain!!!!!

Q: It says the installation kit is included. But then the web site says I need to purchase the kit for $29.99. Can anyone confirm that this unit comes with a kit? (Hot Water Hose and Electric Cord and so on)

A: It does not. Additional comments - washer cleans great and runs quiet, but the controls are unnecessarily cumbersome, to the point of me considering returning it, but the 2 week window has already expired. I leaned my leg against the buttons (on top of door, so sticking into room when open) and froze the dishwasher because buttons had been pushed for too long. I have to reset the circuit breaker because my leg was against the door. It is also confusing to determine when it is running or not if you open it mid cycle. Good dishwasher, just would suggest Insignia do better on the controls.
