Amana - 24" Built-In Dishwasher - Stainless steel

Im not sure how Amana got away with selling this dishwasher. The dishwasher is loud, slow and it doesn't even come close to drying the dishes. I did my research on the dishwasher to see if maybe there was something wrong with the dry cycle and it checked out okay. From other reviews elsewhere other customers seem to be having the same problem. Does it clean the dishes at least? Sort of, its no where near as good as our old dishwasher but it does an okay job of cleaning. There are many times where I have to rewash the dishes when they come out but every time its finished you best believe I have to dry every single thing by hand. I don't even understand how that much water can be left inside the dishwasher even with a rinse aid. I hate having to write bad reviews but Im at my last straw with this machine.

I received this product about 3 wks ago. Replacing a $20 old used dishwasher I had. I should have kept the old one! This dishwasher does not dry at all. Some water spots expected maybe drying the bottom of cups where water has gotten stuck and sitting. That is not the case. The entire tub/washer area is soaking wet. I am using a drying agent as directed. I've also read it can take 2 wks for the dishwasher to be "seasoned". Season is over moving on. Luckily I called best buy on my 15th day (return or exchange time limit) and I have a GE dishwasher on the way to replace this one. Its not worth the hassle, don't bother with purchasing this dishwasher.

Purchased this dishwasher at the end of July, and had it installed last Thursday (8/2). I used it for the first time today, and there is about an inch to inch and half pool of water still at the bottom. I'll have to siphon it out. Called Amana, (waited on hold 15+ minutes) and they scheduled a service call for me - which I have to take 1/2 day out of work for because they don't work on Saturday. In addition, if they deem it's not "their issue" I'll be charged $169 for the service call. I've read the reviews and proper draining is an issue. I should have paid closer attention to this when purchasing. Highly disappointing.

Dont waste your money. Just get a better one. This dishwasher as others have stated, doesnt drain, doesnt dry, and doesnt actually clean the dishes. It's been an embarrasing year of having to check cups before getting my guests a drink or before plating food. the price is what was appealing but proves the age old adage, you get what you pay for. just invest in something better and you wont have to deal with the constant rewashing, wasting water/etc,. etc,. etc,.

Have only had it a month, so far so good; on par with other dishwashers in this price range. The only issue is it is a little deeper than previous dishwashers I have owned; 3 previous dishwashers fit into the cabinet space but depth of this model is about an inch deeper; it still would have fit except I have a drain pipe next to the wall, the unit sticks out about half inch too far to screw it to the counter top; I had to improvise.

So far the dishwasher works great. Select the Hi-temp button to get the water hot enough to wash. Although I wished this machine dried the dishes better. Even with the rinse-aid leaves the dishes wet although not as wet if used without. Unlike my older model dishwasher were it dried the dishes fully this one does not. Not loud fairly quiet. I do like the wash arm on the upper rack. So far plenty of room for my needs inside. Overall it does a good job washing just not a great job at drying.

We purchased this product about 2 years ago and I have to say,It's a useless piece of garbage..It will not thoroughly clean or dry the dishes..We use brand name detergents and it's still the same..Once a month we use cleaning products to flush out the system(which is recommended) but nothing works..We are getting a new one today and needless to say,it won't be Amana.

This dishwasher does not dry at ALL! I have had it for a few months now and thought that it wasn't drying at first because it was new or maybe I did something wrong?!?! ....So I gave it a few months. The washing cycle takes forever and even when it's completed, the dishes are wet. It defeats the purpose of having a dishwasher! Bad investment!
