No, it doesn't smell.

No smell after one month of use. We are on a well and our water sometimes has a smell.

Willie · Answer

We have had it for a month and no odor yet. Still getting used to the drying system.

If you are not careful about food scraps, this dishwasher will smell bad. This dishwasher is very wet after each cycle and has a tendency to have a pool of undrained water on the bottom. If there is any food scraps, this will turn into an unsanitary soup very quickly and it smells really bad. You have to be very careful about rinsing food scraps with this model.

My dishes have never had an odor. I always leave the door partially open for awhile after unloading it so the interior can dry out good and I won't get an odor in the dishwasher. Maybe that's where the odor on your dishes is coming from. If your water temp is hot enough it should kill any bacteria that would cause odors so that could be another possible cause. Good luck, I wouldn't like a funky smell on my dishes either.
