Customers often highlight the 24" Built-In Dishwasher's excellent cleaning performance, quiet operation, and ease of use. Many also appreciate its reasonable price and straightforward installation. While some find the interior space somewhat limited, the positive feedback on cleaning effectiveness and quietness outweighs this concern. The attractive design and stainless steel finish are also frequently praised.
We had an amana dishwasher before this one for 12 yrs or more without any problems. That's why we decided to buy another amana. I installed it in about a half hr including taking the old amana out. We ran our first load last night and it washed just as good as the old amana did. I don't understand why so many people say it didn't dry very well because every dish was dry including our plastic water bottles. This doesn't have the bells and whistles like delay or how many minutes left til it's done washing but who cares. For 298 it washes as good as the so called high end ones and the stainless steel is very nice. Matches everything in our kitchen. Now the only thing I found different was the racks were smaller than the one I replaced. I don't know why whirlpool, they are the makers, made the racks this way. It's pretty frustrating when the coffee cups and soup bowls don't fit quite right but we made it work. I also replaces the bottom rack with my old one from the machine I took out. Overall though I would recommend this washer to anyone who didn't want to waist their money on a washer that has options that at least we never would ve used. The best thing too is its made in the good old USA. Fantastic!

I cannot complain because this thing cleans so much better than my previous washer, and looks so nice and clean to boot. But. I do wish it dried better - I expect a heated dry setting to actually get hot enough to totally dry the dishes.

Delivery came nearly two hours before the "window" promised, so I wasn't ready. This is the only dishwasher I have ever seen that sells without insulation. It also lacks a power cord and brass water fitting, so buy the install kit or remove them from your old dishwasher. Best Buy online said $180 to install, then said there was no one servicing my area. The delivery guys said they would have installed if I had the install kit. They said I couldn't reuse the parts on my old dishwasher -- which I could have, except by the time my handyman told me, the delivery guys had taken it. The good news is that this Amana dishwasher works well, even if it looks a little dated and has lots of plastic parts inside. After a wash and heated dry, my Tupperware containers on the top rack came out wet, but the ceramic dishes on the bottom rack were dry--so hot, in fact, that they were hard to handle. Overall, I am satisfied, but if I were starting over, I'd spend more to get metal inside and more attractive control panel.
