A:AnswerBy vent, I’m assuming you mean airgap fitting for the drain. Most plumbing codes do require this device, and it’s pretty easily installed, so long as your sink or counter top is drillable. Ours is not, so we routed the drain hose as high up as we could, attaching it to the underside of the counter before attaching to the drain connection. This is to prevent a blocked sink drain from backing up and contaminating the dishwasher.
A:AnswerHello Judy, there is a difference, the fingerprint resistant will have a different protectant coat and finish on it. Thank you for inquiry on our KitchenAid appliance.
A:AnswerHi dee, this Dishwasher will require a minimum 24" wide opening. We suggest measuring the opening rather than the appliance. We hope this helps.
A:AnswerKitchenaid was a very bad experience for me, which I just replaced in only 4 years. Yo0u best keep on their backs, because you will be where I am, replacing my dishwasher in 4 years because so many things have broken that I do not feel like pouring any money in to fixing this obviously sub-par machine.
A:AnswerHello, the KitchenAid warranty that comes with this Dishwasher is a 12 month warranty for functional failures that starts from date of purchase. We hope this helps.
A:AnswerSB, the depth including the handles is 26 3/4 inches for this KitchenAid® Dishwasher. Thank you for your interest in our KitchenAid Appliances!
A:AnswerI would NEVER buy an appliance from Best Buy! We bought a KitchenAid dishwasher and it was installed incorrectly by a third party contractor for Best Huy. We rescheduled three times to have a new installer come out and the original installer came to my home all three times. We went to the store twice and met with the store manager who was rude and not helpful to say the least. He wanted to reschedule the appointment for a fourth time. We were ending our 15 day return policy and opted to return the product ourselves since no one showed up from Best Buy for our last appointment. It was the most difficult and frustrating shopping experience I have ever had. I will NEVER shop there again!
