We had to replace a faithful 11 year old Miele and found this Insignia model to be perfect. Its design and cycles are nearly identical. Controls at the top of the door, except the display is clearer to see and easier to wipe clean. A third shelf for cutlery except it is more adjustable. Whisper quiet operation just like the Miele. Stainless steel inside and out, except the Insignia's exterior is a thinner gauge and thus more susceptible to denting. Dry dishes achievable with extra heat setting. Sanitizer cycle achievable with extra setting. Removable bottom rack cutlery basket for large loads too big for the top rack. Geek Squad installation was flawless and well worth the extra money. Total installed cost was one third of the Miele dishwasher 11 years ago. Let's see how pong the Insigna lasts us.

I really wanted the 3rd rack in a dishwasher, but didn't want to upgrade the cost. Consumer Reports gave this a good review, so I thought it would be worthwhile. I had Best Buy install and take my old dishwasher. They took care of everything. The dishwasher is very quiet, I can't always tell it is on, and I don't hear it at all in the next room. I don't like that I need to hold the Power button for 3 seconds before starting, then press the start button. I don't use the dry cycle at all...I put plastic in the bottom rack. If you leave the dishwasher shut and use the drying agent, I have been very happy with no spots and minimum puddles of water anywhere. I would say no puddles, but some of the deeper indents in glasses, etc do have a little water. The multiple beeps at the end of the cycle is annoying, but not really bothersome. I use the express cycle unless something is really heavy duty dirty. I have only had it a few months, and the loading of the dishes is different than any other dishwasher I have had. I use only the main part of the silverware holder (the 2 sides come off) and the stem holder for glasses can take up room, but I am getting the hang of loading. I really recommend this dishwasher...even though my mother swears by her premium brand 3 rack dishwasher. I am really happy with the Insignia brand in general.

First of all I wish they would have included the 90° elbow you need to install. You go to your local hardware and you have to buy a complete hose kit to get the elbow included. Installation was not hard. I like how it secures to the cabinet from the removable plugs to screw into the side of the cabinets. I wish they would included the right size screws for cabinet side securement. Test run all dishes were clean like everybody else is complete it does not completely dry the dishes. But for the money you spend on this unit considering it has a third rack for a fraction of the cost of other units. I am excited to see how long this machine functions properly. Either way I paid for the 5-year warranty. It is the quietest dishwasher I've ever heard.

The look is clean and sleek. Matches all my other stainless appliances. It's super quiet. Really the best dishwasher I have used. It's very easy to use and with the top 3rd rack there is plenty of storage. I also really like that the buttons are hidden.

I chose this one because of the price and that the inside was entirely stainless steel. I didn’t even realize that it had the third rack at first which has been a Godsend because we have reusable chopsticks which won’t stay in the silverware basket. It’s quiet and gets my dishes nice and clean. Dries them off well too. Very happy.
