Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a sturdy dishwasher that is so quiet, we often forget it's on. In fact we ran it during Thanksgiving dinner and no one even knew it was on. Dishes are super clean and it dries very well too. I LOVE the bottle washer feature, it works unbelievably well. One thing that could be better is the design of the utensil basket, it has a cover that is unnecessary, we took it off as it was cumbersome. Other than that, it's pretty perfect.

This model is super quiet; we often look at the indicator lights to make sure it’s really on. Unlike our past dishwashers, the dishes come out with almost no water spots. We also like the bottle washer jets, but we have to put down a row of dividers for average size bottles to give room for the bottle to lean a little. We love having a 3rd rack for silverware and flat utensils or lids, but the tines are really short meaning that spoons have to be laid flat. Despite these drawbacks, we still really like it.

Its extremely quiet. Very easy to use. Gets everything clean. Love it!!!

Very very quiet 3rd rack is great works well bottle washer is great 200 times better than lg

I will start with the bad point: took 3 weeks to deliver.. The great points: Delivery & Instalstion- was done by Bestbuy guy name Kevin-was very attentive,polite,professional.He also did the follow up call to make sure that the dishwasher is working good. I am very happy with my dishwasher. The dishwasher is great. I get clean and dry dishes. For the most part it is quite! I am glad I chose it. (So many to choose from..)

In the first place, I love having stainless steel on the inside my dishwasher. I love the 3rd rack! More room to put dishes down below and keep the little things on top. It actually cleans my dishes and glasses to a sparkling clean! I like the options on the top of the door. It has a lot of room. I like everything about this dishwasher. Oh, and it is so, so quiet! I had to put my ear down next to it to hear it running.

kitchen aide is the best - design of the inside - large capacity - stainless steel - completely quiet and sleek look are all excellent. Best Buy delivery was good - but the first one was damaged and so delivery/installation was rescheduled a week later - that’s the only downside - pretty consistently, when we buy from Best Buy we end up happy ( but it takes two tries to get it right due to damaged product.)

When my 2-drawer Kitchenaid dishwasher gave up, I shopped for a standard size tub with two main requirements: I wanted American made, and sound reduction packaging. After reading many reviews and looking at models I narrowed my choices to Bosch and Kitchenaid. My final choice was made for me when I found an open-box new KA in a nearby Best Buy, at a savings of over $500 off usual price. The racks have some good adjustment features, including bottle wash spigots. The very slim top rack works for flat lids, silicone bowl covers, some flat utensils, although anything with a curve like a pancake turner doesn’t fit. Racks slide smoothly. The silverware basket is extra large and holds everything. I removed the slots racks attached to the overhead of the silverware basket because I find it easer to drop in a handful rather than one piece at a time. For just two of us, I run a load every other day or so, and I choose the Express Wash which is significantly shorter than the Normal Wash/Dry cycle. Everything comes out clean, including the large mixing bowls and saucepans. I open the door for air dry at the end of the cycle, and I’m okay with towel drying when needed. We barely hear the dishwasher running, and the white light signaling completion is helpful. I’m very happy with this purchase.

We didn't realize how poorly our previous dishwasher was performing until we upgraded to this, and we're very glad we did! The third rack comes in very handy for us, the bottle washers have been helpful, and the drying performance has been about what we expected - very good, but of course it's almost impossible for a dishwasher to perfectly dry everything. We're very happy with our purchase.

I've been slowly replacing my kitchen appliances and this happened to be on sale. I was worried because my older KitchenAid was one of the last ones with garbage disposals in it which meant I didn't have to rinse my dishes before putting them in. The dishes are cleaner than ever and the dishwasher is unbelievably quiet. Most of the time I have to walk right up to it to figure out if its running.

Compared to my old dishwasher, this one is super quiet. I normally rinse the dishes before i put them in there so they normally come out clean. There are two things I don't like about it. First, the top rank falls out easily by itself. Second, it doesn't dry water very well. Most of the time the dishes are still wet when its done even though I use the highest drying setting.

We waited for this model to go on sale before purchasing because it had all of the features we wanted, along with the price tag. It is extremely quiet, and washes the dishes well. Sometimes I have to check to make sure I really turned it on because it really is that quiet. I’m a pre-rinse person but it seems to do okay with left-on grudge. The top row is very helpful, and the bottle washer is super handy.

We are VERY pleased with both the cleaning performance and the operating silence of our new dishwasher. We cannot hear the washing cycle when we're standing next to the unit. Our home is a tranquil place even when we're doing the dishes. We are very pleased with the multiple shelves in the unit as they provide a "home" for all our items.

After just 3yrs of use, this washer developed a slow leak beneath it, which caused thousands of dollars worth the damage to our kitchen floor and cabinets. Now, not only do I have to pay to get a new dishwasher, I am out $1k for an insurance deductible, AND I have to endure weeks of "mitigation" and construction in the middle of my kitchen. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER KITCHENAID/WHIRLPOOL AS LONG AS I LIVE! Buyer beware.

LOVE this dishwasher! I've always hated the swooshing sound dishwasher make; this dishwasher is so quiet, you need to check twice to make sure that it is on sometimes. Quiet, yet SUPER EFFICIENT; cleans my pots and pans, and cupcake trays. There is even a bottle washer spout for drinking bottles. I can't say enough. I highly recommend this dishwasher!

Really pleased how quiet this unit is. Appearance is excellent and I like the small light that is visible when it is running, changes when drying, and changes yet again when finished. Dishes, glasses, pots and silverware all comes out very clean. My only complaint is the panel is not stainless steel (magnetic) but it does looks the part and cleans just as well. For this reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5.

It cleans the dishes very well. It is super quiet. The third rack comes in very handy.

We bought a new KitchenAid dishwasher after our prior one died. We couldn't be happier with our purchase! We put it to full use on Thanksgiving and we're delighted with its performance. Its interior design allowed us to load lots of items. It ran so quietly we had to listen closely to confirm it was running. The dishes, utensils and cookware came out clean and dry. We love it!

Many great features including the 3rd rack, bottle washers, adjustable racks and different settings. These racks glide in and out so much better than our old dishwasher and it is super quiet. We’ve had this for 6 months and really enjoy it. The only con is that we didn’t realize there wasn’t a fine china setting (for the 1 time a year that we use them).

The dishwasher is like most/all the new ones in that it takes hours to do the job but if put on auto everything, it does it pretty well. Plastics still are not dry, even with drying agent but it works well and you have to listen closely to even tell it is running. The top rack is not very helpful because if anything sticks up, the water wand stalls.
