Best dishwasher ever. Our dishes have never been so clean.
Whisper quiet when running, we can run it when we go to bed, does not interrupt our sleep. Love the stainless interior.

Fantastic Purchase, the best Dishwasher I have had

This is by far the best dishwasher I have ever had! It does a fantastic job cleaning dirty dishes. I have not pulled out a dirty dish yet and I have owned this dishwasher for almost 2 months (keep in mind I do not prewash my dishes before loading them). Another great feature of this dishwasher is it is very quiet. I love the fact when it is done, the front says clean sanitize.
I am still adjusting to the 3rd (top) rack. Of all the 3rd Rack Dishwashers available I like the layout of this one the best. A slight disadvantage of the 3rd rack is that it eliminates space on the other two racks. The second rack does not adjust as high and there are limits on taller items fitting on the bottom due to this.

We've had several dish washers over the years and this KitchenAid is, by far, the very best we've owned! Its incredibly quiet (it was delivered with insulation to dampen noise) to the point that we check it to make sure it is stll running! The dishes come out sparkling clean (and so smooth!) The third rack is wonderful for spatulas, meat forks, small dipping dishes, etc. We highly recommend this washer and would buy it again in a heartbeat.

Very quiet, you do not even know it is running. I like the controls on top, so you do not have to bend over to see them (if they were on the front) Amazing performance, Glasses, dishes come out the cleanest I have ever seen. Maybe it's the Quantum soap I now use, but wow, everything is supper clean and sanitized. Draw backs, The normal cycle runs for 3 hours. When the clean light comes on, I can still hear the fan running forever after the wash cycle is supposed to be over. Biggest drawback: It did not come with a MANUAL. Nothing online to explain how to use it or if the the fan running is normal. I am really just up in the air about any of the features or just how to use the dishwasher in general. Big disconnect from the manufacture. Why would they not give you a manual? This is a pricey dishwasher. I love the dishwasher, but using it is trial and error and trying to guess what some of the buttons are for and guessing running times and guessing about everything. Come on KitchenAid, get your act together - give me a Manual.

Replaced a 15 year old high end dishwasher (other brand) that I never liked from day 1. It went out again and we decided to get a new one. Did some research and this Kitchenaid model rated high. I installed it myself - the instructions were very well written and easy to follow. We tried out the power wash setting first with some pots and coffee travel mugs that had caked on coffee that never came clean. They came out almost like new. The top third rack is the largest I’ve seen and you can put actual glasses and small bowls there rather than just flatware. It’s quiet as a church mouse too. Love the controls being located on top. Clean look. My wife is so happy she named it (like people do their cars). Could not be happier and it was a great price for what you get. Highly recommend.

Purchased after having great success with our Kitchen Aid refrigerator. So pleased! It’s quiet. Has multiple wash options. Sleek design. 3 racks. And it cleans better than I expected. Definitely recommended. And Best Buy install was a breeze, even in our 1955 kitchen.

Installation and setup was easy. We have washed 5 to 8 loads of dishes so far. It seems to clean just as well as our 29 year old Kenmore that still worked but had started making a squealing noise, although it doesn’t dry quite as well as our old one. This new KitchenAid is so incredibly quiet. Also the display lets you know how much time is left in the cycle, and that the dishes are clean when it is done. It does not have a food chopper that we are used to, so sometimes has a little odor even though the filter is clean. Overall, we are very happy with the KitchenAid, and just hope that it serves us as well as our old washer did.

Have been looking at this dishwasher for a couple of months knowing that we had to replace our 9 yr old Bosch because of recurring handle problems. KitchenAid dishwashers have been highly rated on Consumer reports. Have had for a month and am very impressed. Installation was awesome from Best Buy. Very professional. Dishwasher is very quiet. Everything comes out completely clean and dry using ProDry setting. Best 3rd rack available. Black stainless steel matches up well with our LG gas oven. First time appliance purchase and installation from Best Buy. We will be a return customer.

Recently purchased a black slate induction range and then my dishwasher died so I opted to try this black KitchenAid dishwasher I was interested in the third rack which really works out well for smaller items plenty a room to still fill up the dishwasher the installers were awesome and I was pleasantly surprised how well the colors actually match they look great and the same room. This dishwasher has a quick cycle in a long cycle and it really gets all the food particles off all the dishes and everything on the top rack dries top and bottom I like the pro drying half action definitely drives all the dishes top and bottom even a little lip inside some of the lids

I have owned this thing thing over 10 months and I love this dishwasher, perfect for the price range i was looking at. It runs quiet I sometimes have to check its running and then cleans really. The 3rd rack helped save space for more items to be washed ( cups, glasses and utensils). Overall a great purchase and will consider buying again. Thanks Bestbuy tukwila team for recommending.

Wow, is it running? I love this dishwasher! It’s super quiet, cleans really well and has tons and tons and tons of room. I’m amazed how much I can fit in that little top rack-bowls, cups, spatulas, cup lids, etc. I would recommend this to anyone. The ONLY improvement I can think of is giving the consumer a better idea of how much time is left in cycle. (The design does have a timer but it’s on the TOP of the door and my counter hides it) I love it and would buy another one without hesitation

We had a 10 year old model that died, so wanted something similar. This had the third rack that we honestly thought we'd take out. However, we love the third rack! This dishwasher holds more than our old KitchenAid - also love the top controls. You can actually see the timer on the top if you step a few paces away and look in. I would have never thought that would work, but it's great! Dishes have been spotless and dry - we've run 10-15 loads so far.

This is the best dishwasher ever! Easy to load, holds tons of stuff, dries my plastic beautifully! I have never been o pleased with a dishwasher! Easy to purchase online, great installation in timely matter and removed the old one! Speaking of the old one it was a Bosch, worse dishwasher ever! Tines too close to hold bowls, very small inside, didn't dry well,plastic not at all! It was only only 6 months old,couldn't stand it anymore!

Must agree with everyone else who thinks this is a great dishwasher. Not only does it look great, it performs well, too. It's extremely quiet. The 3rd rack is a nice addition.
The door is heavy and you need to really pull on it to open... definitely not a negative, just an observation. The two spray heads do a super job of getting the dishes nice and clean. Hope this model lasts as long as our previous Kitcheaid dishwasher. It's a quality product.

Pros: cleans really well. More space for more things (because of 3rd rack). Bonus: Looks really nice.
Cons: could be quieter. Don't get me wrong, it's quieter than our older Dishwasher. But you definitely know that it's running, even though you aren't in the kitchen. Also, while the dishes are dried fine, there's moisture at the bottom and the sides of the dishwasher. I know that this is part of the "new way" that Dishwashers dry but if the moisture is left in there after emptying the dishwasher itself, you can't help but create eventually conditions for mildew build-up. So we use something to prop the door open to let it air dry.
