Fantastic dishwasher - much better than the similarly priced Bosh unit it replaced. It's slightly less quiet than the uber-quiet Bosh but better in every other way. I especially like the huge 3rd rack which holds a surprising number of sizeable items: Regular coffee cups and 12 oz drink glasware, small cereal bowls and a plethora of flatware, knives, spatulas, etc. The Bosh unit's 3rd rack is a joke by comparison with nearly unusable depth, low quality glides and flimsy overall feel. The Bosh's middle rack glides better but no where near the quality of the Kitchenaid's super glides. I love the huge bottom rack's hefty utensil caddy that spans the front-to-back of the washer with a quality handle. The Bosh, OTOH sports a ridiculously small super-cheap comically flimsy utensil rack that seems like it came from an off-brand $350 dishwasher. What were they thinking? The dual-sided interior lighting in the Kitchenaid is useful and a novel useful feature for us. I love the easily accessible 1-to-24 hour delay feature for off-peak washing. The Bosh unit had *NO DELAY CONTROLS* on the dishwasher itself, a major fail. To set a delay you'd have to dig down multiple layers in the phone app to access it, uber-inconvenient! The Bosh had a downward projector telling you what phase the wash was in but NO indicator of when the cycle was complete! The projector was weak and difficult to read on sautlilo tiles. The Kitchenaid, OTOH displays an easily visible led indicator - blue for wash, red for dry and white when complete - simple and effective. Finally, the wash quality and drying are top notch, the drying superior to the Bosh unit when in the ProDry mode. Overall, highly recommended

This dishwasher is so quiet and all the racks roll so smooth. Well worth the price and it looks so good and feels sturdy.
