Samsung - 24" AutoRelease Dry Smart Built-In Stainless Steel Tub Dishwasher with 3rd Rack, StormWash+, 42 dBA - Stainless Steel

I recently purchased a new dishwasher and I couldn’t be more pleased with its performance. One of the standout features is how incredibly quiet it is; you can barely hear it running, even when you’re in the same room. In terms of cleaning power, this dishwasher excels. Every dish, from the dirtiest pots and pans to delicate glassware, comes out sparkling clean without any residue. The variety of cycles ensures that every load, no matter how heavily soiled, gets the perfect wash. The spacious interior is another major plus. It easily accommodates a large number of dishes, including oversized plates and tall glasses, thanks to its adjustable racks and strategically placed tines. This means fewer loads and more efficiency in your daily routine. Lastly, the sleek design is a perfect addition to any modern kitchen. Its clean lines, stylish finish, and intuitive controls make it both a functional and aesthetically pleasing appliance. Overall, this dishwasher is a fantastic investment that combines quiet operation, superior cleaning, ample capacity, and elegant design.

I was a little nervous about buying a Samsung product, given their reputation with appliances, this Samsung dishwasher replaces a five year old KitchenAid. It is even more quiet than the last dishwasher we had. Drying is way better. I like the app control ability. Stainless steel finish matches the rest of my appliances. I do like the towel handle bar, it doesn’t stick out as much as my old KitchenAid. I would highly recommend this model for sure if anyone is on the fence. 

The first and foremost decision for this dishwasher was the Fingerprint resistant stainless steel front panel. The old Bosch DW was real SS and I could never keep it looking clean and good. Second was the -42db level. The Bosch was -48db and you barley could hear it. At -42db it is dead quite, the only noise you hear is the soap dish cover popping open. Another nice feature is the utensil rack that allows you not to have to use the utensil basket on the lowest rack. I removed it and it clears up a lot of space. There is one installation anomaly, if your sink is in the right side of the dishwasher, the drain hose was problematic that caused me a inadvertently knick the drain hose that caused it to leak. The hose exits the machine at the rear at the other end of the tub and the hose is snaked across the bottom. There is a clip to hold the hose in place but it pops out when maneuvering the machine into place and it gets behind the machine, therefore, you cannot insert the machine all the way in since the hose is blocking it. I drilled some holes in the clip and use zip ties to hold it in place at the highest setting and it was still below the base of the sink cabinet. It was not possible to slide in the DW into the position because of the hose would bind into the side of the cabinet. After getting a replacement hose, I drilled a hole below the base cabinet and in the floor of the cabinet. This allowed not having to use the clip and keep the drain hose down on the floor and it was easily maneuvered into the sink base. The side hole to the sink base need to be at the floor level. The electrical connection was easy but it is also on the other side of the DW. A dedicated slot to hold it in place worked well.

Very good unit better than the linear automatic door open.. This storm wash plus model has the heated dry vent on the side as well and the auto door open for table ready dishes.. Spotless silverware and dishes unit looks good to match.. I would definitely buy this model again if I had too and you will be happy too. Paired with Smart Things app really takes it to the next level better and more responsive than any other Wi-Fi connected app and appliance. Samsung Smartthings is the leader in app connectivity.. Just look at the ratings for yourself.

My samsung dishwasher is wonderful! I love cooking & baking with my granddaughters which makes the multiple wash options great for my different needs. I don't even hear it when I'm watching TV in the family room. The removal of my old dishwasher and installation of my new one was (fast, clean andprofessional).
