- Features
- Hard Food Disposer: false (This feature has blades to chop and disintegrate hard food particles, making them small enough to easily drain away. This prevents them from being recirculated back onto dishware and allows for easy maintenance.)
- Drying Method: Heated drying (Appliances that use heat to dry the dishes will include a heating element or minerals which transform moisture into heat. A fan or vent then circulates the hot dry air throughout the tub during the drying cycle. This may reduce drying time and the risk of water spots. Appliances that use minerals to produce heat are considered more energy efficient than those that include a heating element. Appliances that use condensation drying are considered more energy efficient than those that use heated drying. Instead, high temperature water is produced during the final rinse cycle which warms the interior and eventually condensates and drains out of the machine.)
- Operating Sound Level: 47 decibels adjusted (Today's appliances are pretty quiet. To get a sense for how quiet you'll need, think about having a conversation in the same room.

Reliable and Cleans Dishes Perfectly
I’ve been very impressed with my Whirlpool dishwasher. It does an excellent job getting dishes spotless, even with tough, dried-on food. The cycles are quiet, efficient, and easy to use, which makes everyday cleanup much easier. I also like the spacious design that allows me to fit a lot of dishes in one load. Overall, it’s a reliable appliance that works great and has made kitchen cleanup much more convenient. I would definitely recommend it.

Lot's of room! Highly recommend this model. Thank you Best Buy for helping us with all the choices.

Stainless Steel: Quiet Perfection
My condo has a small kitchen, space is tight and my bedroom is 25 feet away so noise is always a concern. After purchasing this in August and putting it to the test for over 60 days, I am finally ready to offer my review. Best Buy/Pacific Sales installers arrived on time, were very professional, had the installation kit with them and did an incredible job. Everything is absolutely perfect with this dishwasher except it doesn't dry some items completely. Even with the extra dry time setting, I still have to hand dry some items. I LOVE that it is Virtually quiet - the entire stainless steel tub and door is so MUCH better than plastic - it really absorbs the sound and is definitely worth the extra money! My last dishwasher kept me awake at night with all the racket - Not this one! You don't even realize it is on unless you are standing right next to it - I turn it on before I go to bed and NEVER hear a sound! Love, Love, Love it! I chose the model with recessed opening instead of a handle because it is located in a corner where I have to open cabinetry and was concerned a handle would impact the use of my cabinets. The wonderful installers were able to install it almost flush with cabinets allowing me to easily open the adjacent cabinet door and drawer and I liked the look of a recessed opening much better as well. 5 stars for quiet; great appearance; cleans dishes pretty well - occasionally I find food stuck on a fork or spoon; the exterior is easy to clean and the 3rd rack is so helpful with large cooking utensils. I gave it 4 stars just because the drying cycle could be better - otherwise I love it and my neighbors are jealous!
