    WOW - JUST WOW! We Love It!

    Fantastic experience all the way around, beginning with the installation team sent to deliver & install the dishwasher... Best Buy hit a home run with this team! Installation was free of any issues or difficulties - pretty straight forward. Our first run with the dishwasher was terrific! We opted not to get a new dishwasher with a 3rd rack - it was what we initially looked for, and were concerned that we'd be disappointed without one... but that is not the case. We love the roominess inside this Maytag dishwasher, and feel that all of our items fit - with air to spare. The prongs in the racks provide enough versatility to accommodate all types of dishes, glasses & utensils - we do not regret not getting the 3rd rack. The top rack is extremely roomy with a lot of "head room". The dishwasher was soooooo super quiet - not noise-free, but we didn't even realize it had stopped running when the cycle was done, it was so quiet (the dishwasher is literally 20 ft from our living room, where we were sitting). When the cycle is finished - it says "clean" on the panel.. which is helpful. The dishes were not only spotless - but they were not super hot to touch (within 15 min of "clean" coming on the screen), and were completely dry - including our plastic lids and cups. FANTASTIC! In an age where appliances now play songs and have panels that look like an aircraft cockpit - you do NOT need any more than this very simple, very straight forward operating panel. Less to break, less to have to fiddle with, and just enough to give you some above-board options. The dishwasher is well made, sturdy & attractive. For a mid-price-range dishwasher, you will love this Maytag.

    Very, very quiet and very, very clean dishes

    So far so good, only used about 4-5 times. Very, very quiet, easy to use, dishes are perfectly clean, racks allow for large pots or bowls on bottom and medium ones on top. I like that the rinse aid dispenser is large enough that you don’t have to refill often. Seems lower to ground than previous dishwasher, which I think is why it can accommodate larger pots or bowls. Looks nice too!

    Impressive Performance and Convenient

    I recently purchased the Maytag Dual Power Dishwasher with Filtration and Front Controls from Best Buy, and I am thoroughly impressed with its performance and the convenience it offers. This dishwasher has proven to be a reliable and efficient addition to my kitchen. The standout feature of the Maytag Dual Power Dishwasher is its dual power filtration system. This innovative technology ensures that the dishes are thoroughly cleaned and that the water used for each cycle remains clean throughout the process. I appreciate the peace of mind that comes with knowing my dishes are being washed with fresh, filtered water, resulting in spotless and sparkling results every time. The front controls on this dishwasher are another highlight. The intuitive interface allows for easy navigation and selection of various wash cycles and options. The buttons are responsive and well-placed, providing a seamless user experience. The clear and concise digital display provides real-time information about the wash progress and remaining time, allowing me to plan my kitchen activities accordingly. In terms of performance, the Maytag Dual Power Dishwasher excels in delivering clean and dry dishes. The powerful jets and customizable wash cycles ensure that even the toughest stains and food residues are thoroughly removed. The adjustable racks and tines offer flexibility in accommodating dishes of different sizes and shapes, maximizing the dishwasher's capacity. I appreciate how it handles both delicate glassware and heavily soiled pots and pans with equal effectiveness. The noise level of this dishwasher is impressively low. Even during the most intense wash cycles, it operates quietly, allowing me to carry on with other activities without any disruption. This is especially beneficial in open-concept kitchen layouts where noise can be a concern. Another noteworthy aspect is the durability and build quality of the Maytag Dual Power Dishwasher. The stainless steel interior not only looks sleek but also ensures longevity and resistance to stains and odors. The sturdy construction and attention to detail instill confidence that this appliance will stand the test of time. Furthermore, the Maytag brand has a reputation for reliability, and this dishwasher lives up to that expectation. It delivers consistent performance and has shown no signs of malfunctions or issues since I started using it. This reliability further enhances my satisfaction with the product. While the Maytag Dual Power Dishwasher has exceeded my expectations, it's important to note that every household's needs may vary. It's advisable to consider factors such as the size of your family, your typical dishwashing needs, and available space before making a final decision. Additionally, installation requirements and any additional costs associated with installation should be considered. In conclusion, I highly recommend the Maytag Dual Power Dishwasher with Filtration and Front Controls for its impressive performance and convenient features. The dual power filtration system ensures effective cleaning, while the front controls offer intuitive operation. The durability, low noise level, and reliable performance make it a standout choice for anyone in need of a high-quality dishwasher. Best Buy's service and support throughout the purchase process further enhance the overall positive experience.

    Close to perfect

    The only way this appliance could be better is if it unloaded itself. I have been a lifelong Kitchenaid advocate and this Maytag matches operation and features of much more expensive dishwashers AND it still retains the soft food disposer that most (even way more expensive) units abandoned . This maytag has adjustable racks, very quiet operation, 10 year parts warranty, and all the cycles one could need. I only have one small quibble, it has no rinse hold cycle, but if you need that, one model up has that included. I have total tech, so installation was no cost, and Tim and his assistant were on time, kept me posted on delivery timeline, installed quickly, and were very neat. I will always rave about Best Buy delivery and installation and continue to recommend it.

    Great economical dishwasher

    I’ve never had such a quiet dishwasher. It does make some sound but from the next room I sometimes don’t know it’s on! The steel insides makes the dishes dry perfectly. Cleans really well as long as food hasn’t dried and hardened. I would have liked a 3rd rack, but I didn’t want to spend extra just for that. I’m very satisfied. It even fits long stemmed wine glasses which my previous dishwashers couldn’t do. For the price I paid, this was a great deal! My plumber was even impressed with the quality vs what I paid. I would buy again!
