In my previous home I had all KitchenAid appliances. In moving to FL and buying a new build home, the builder's grade appliances did not cut it with me. Within one year I purchased an all new kitchen with KitchenAid appliances. This dishwasher holds so much more and cleans so much better than anything I have ever had. Thank you Pacific Kitchens and Best Buy.

Love this dishwasher as it has all the features I want and need. Nice stainless steel interior and exterior. Highly recommend!

We had a 17 yr old KitchenAid dishwasher that still worked fine, only thing that showed it's age was the color (bisque) & a few of the tines had broken off. I researched dishwashers online & it came down to KitchenAid & Bosch. What sealed the deal for KitchenAid is their dishwashers still have a heating element for drying. I read too many reviews with complaints that the european dishwashers without a heating element do not dry the dishes so I didn't want to take a chance. And since my last KitchenAid was still going strong after 17 yrs, I thought that was a good sign. This dishwasher cleans well, I leave the door shut for quite a while after it's finished & that lets the dishes dry completely, It's also pretty quiet at 44dba. I like that the top rack is adjustable height wise, but haven't had to adjust it yet. Only complaint is it seems like I could fit more in the top rack of my old dishwasher vs this one, not sure why that is since the layout is almost identical. I liked the clips for wine glasses on the old dishwasher better, the stems actually clipped into place, with the new one they don't actually clip the stems so to me it's not as secure. Don't know why they changed that. But overall so far am happy with my purchase, just hope it lasts as long as my old one did!

My parents' first dishwasher was a KitchenAid and I have good memories of their solid reputation. I could have paid more for some non-American made brand, but I trusted their reputation and have not been disappointed. It cleans and dries all the dishes very well and it is super quiet, which is good because I'm in a small condo. The controls on the top edge of the door give it a very sleek look and the operation is very intuitive. If you've ever tested the door on a new car to feel how solid the construction is when you shut it, you'll know you have a great dishwasher when you do the same sort of thing with this unit.

My 12 year old Kitchenaid dishwasher was acting up in a few ways and seemed like it was on the way out so this was a replacement that looked almost exactly like my old one with the exception of the front display that lets you know what stage the dishwasher is in ( washing, rinsing, etc) I love this feature!!! and always wished my old one had something similar. This new one is also very quiet- I read in reviews that people could hardly tell it was running and I must say that is true- super quiet. Some of the internal baskets/gadgets are not very useful so I pulled them out. There is one on the back of the top rack but it takes up too much space away from regular dishes. The knife holder on the side is the same way, don't have much use for it. Also, the lids for the flatware have holes where you can slide the handles of the spoons, forks, etc in the holes but my flatware's handles are too big for the holes so that is also not useful. Another improvement over my old dishwasher is the soap/rinse aid dispenser. Whoever designed the old one did a pretty poor job of it. The new one is greatly improved. So far loving this machine because it cleans well and is so quiet, which are top priorities for me. Only complaints are the new fangled gadgets that have been added that don't seem very useful, and probably add significantly to the cost.
