Easily have a conversation right next the appliance); and Nearly Silent (42 dBA or lower. You'll hardly know the appliance is on).)

- Tub Finish: Stainless steel (Certain coatings or materials on the inside of the dishwasher, such as stainless steel, are more durable, retain heat better, and can withstand higher temperatures than materials such as plastic. These higher quality materials may increase the appliance’s efficiency, but there may be also be extra initial cost. Some models marketed as Hybrid will use both materials in the tub, often using stainless steel on the interior door to increase durability on the part of the appliance with the most common wear and tear.)

- 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: 39 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. Choose from Not as Quiet (56 dBA or higher. You'll likely need to raise your voice); Quiet (50-55 dBA. Need to raise your voice slightly); Very Quiet (43-49 dBA. Easily have a conversation right next the appliance); and Nearly Silent (42 dBA or lower. You'll hardly know the appliance is on).)
- Delay Start: true (Allows you to program the appliance to automatically run at a later time. This feature helps you coordinate with your household’s water needs, noise preferences, and more. Additionally, operating your appliance during off-peak hours may reduce energy costs.)

- Child Lock: false (Setting that allows appliance to be temporarily locked to prevent use.)
- Filtered Water: true (Internal water filter(s) remove minerals and chemicals from hard water before the wash cycle. Filtered water is less likely to leave mineral deposits or stains, meaning your dishware will look cleaner for longer.)
- Water Soil Sensor: false (Feature that measures how dirty the water is throughout the wash cycle and adjusts the energy and water usage as needed. This can increase washing efficiency and may reduce energy costs.)

- Steam Pre-Wash: false (Loosens food debris by creating steam inside the washer before the primary wash cycle, allowing for an easier, gentler clean of dishware.)

When operated on the sanitizing cycle, an NSF-Certified dishwasher reaches a final rinse temperature of 150⁰ Fahrenheit and achieves a minimum 99.999% percent reduction of bacteria.)

A: Yes, this dishwasher has a height range of 33.5 inches to 34.5 inches.
A: I don't think it does. There is still a filter in the bottom of washer that is removable. I've only had it a week so I'm still figuring things out. I love it so far! Extremely quiet! Don't even know when its on!
A: It stops. At least that works However, I've had mine for less than a week. I bought this because it has a heating element, which is very important to me. I hear about the new energy efficient dishwashers leaving your dishes damp. Well, this one leaves my dishes soaking wet, a big puddle on the inside of the door and condensation and a wet film on every side and bottom of the basin. Instructions say to used jet dry solution which I did. A tech is coming to look at it this weekend. They said that shouldn't be happening. However, I have seen many complaints online from others having the same experience. Let's hope they fix it or I'm returning it. I paid extra for that feature!
Q: How much does best buy charge for installing a dishwasher? It is an.under counter kind.
A: Best Buy charges about $120 for installation in my area. KitchenAid recently had a promotion going with Best Buy, where not only was delivery free, but so was the installation. That's when I bought mine.
Q: Will this dishwasher sanitize my dishes?
A: This will have a sanitation cycle.
A: If you go into the store you may be able to special order it that way. I was offered that as an option at a different store when I bought mine. I bought from best buy though because the price, warranty and installation were better. They might be able to do it as well if you go in store. FYI this is a really great dishwasher.... So quite that the light is the only way to know it is running.
A: The stainless steel is magnetic.
A: Yes, the handle is stainless steel.
