- Features
- Hard Food Disposer: true (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.)

Great features!!
I read reviews for many of the top dishwashers out there. This one had consistently good reviews and talked about drying great capabilities, which most dishwashers fail miserably at. While not perfect when it comes to plastic, it does a super drying job otherwise. Overall for the price point, this dishwasher is a great value with great features.

Whirlpool dishwasher
Tried all of the dry cycles, but still have a puddle of water at the bottom of the dishwasher rack. Been having to leave the door open in order to get all of the water to air out and not having it smell like mildew
