Customer Ratings & Reviews

Our old dishwasher stopped getting dishes clean and we remodeled our kitchen so bought this as part of a KitchenAid suite. Dishwasher is quiet, easy to load and gets dishes clean. Collaterally, kudos to pacific sales for courteous service and for replacing the dishwasher quickly as it arrived dinged and a demerit to KitchenAid as ding appeared to be out of the factory so QA may be lacking. KitchenAid customer service and behavior also disappointing as we we experienced poor customer service when trying to resolve rebate issue, hence the rating.

Great, cleans the dishes, is super quiet (it can be hard to tell if it's on) and lots of control options. It does make some weird noises early in the washing cycle but not too loud

Pros--It looks nice Extremely quiet. almost TOO quiet 3rd rack is nice Cons--Poor cleaning Rinsing dishes is essential Can't clean pots and pans Can't clean day-old dishes We did a kitchen remodel, bought this to replace a 15 year old Bosch DW that had a non-working soap dispenser. Our work-around was to throw soap packet in the bottom an use the 30 min Quick cycle. Even then, the Bosch ran rings around this piece of junk. No rinsing, pots and pans, dried food---all spotless. I would take the broken 15 year old Bosch over this one any day. Do yourself a favor, skip this Dish Rinser and look at a Bosch.

large capacity, cleans well and very quiet. it was a tight fit into standard 24" opening since has lots of components close to exterior surface to make room on the inside

This is a great appliance. It’s quiet and does a great job cleaning. I have three complaints: 1. The silverware basket should be smaller or at least able to separate into two parts. It’s so big and takes up so much room - and sometimes we don’t need to wash that much silverware. 2. The very top shelf should be able to move up and down - we have what I guess are “oversized” glasses and mugs and we can’t put them on the top shelf easily. 3. The tilted row on the bottom rack should be able to be adjusted flat...in fact all of the rows on the bottom rack should be adjustable. Other than that it is a solid appliance and I am happy with the purchase.

Great dishwasher. Very quiet. This Kitchaide appliance did everything sales team said it would. Quiet. Dishes are clean and easy to use.

This dishwasher does an excellent job of cleaning dishes, even when I choose not to pre-rinse. It’s so quiet I can hardly tell it is running. The racks are spacious and can fit my stand mixer bowl and my blender. The third rack is also surprisingly large and useful.

Overall the KitchenAid is working very well. Choose it over the other highly rated brand because of the third rack. Love it. I wish there was more flexibility in the lower racks tongs. No models are great for larger pans and pots. But Overall, would purchase this again. When properly loaded and using the premium soap pods, the dishes are spotless, even backed on greasy pans.

Absolutely love this dishwasher!!! Never had one with the 3rd rack & love that feature plus this one is so quiet compared to the Whirlpool I had. Have only used the ability to move the rack up/down for the middle rack that offers more room for larger items on bottom, but it was definitely a plus. Would recommend!

I like the dishwasher with a few slight dislikes. Nice looking inside and out. Very quiet except for little clicking sounds. Doesn’t bother me but my two cats run. The only thing that disappoints is that the regular drying cycle does not thoroughly dry the dishes. To dry the dishes and the inside of the machine, you must push the extended heat dry or towel dry some of the dishes and then use the towel to dry the inside of the machine if it matters to you

The dishwasher works very well. It’s very quiet and the dishes come out clean. Lots of room.

It's very very quiet. For the price, I would like a little closer to silent, but it's good enough. Cleans dishes very well, no spots. Hoping this one lasts longer than our previous, which only made it about 5 years.

This is my first brand new dishwasher and I am over the moon! It whispers when it's washing dishes. I can barely hear it when it's on. It does an AMAZING job of cleaning my dishes and never do I see food or water spots. I highly recommend this model!!!!

This dishwasher is super quite, you can hardly tell that it is on. I also really like that there are three racks, it seems to fit a lot more than our older model did.

The Kitchenaid dishwasher has been an adjustment! I think the best feature is that it is quiet. My old dishwasher was a Bosech and I definitely preferred it. The tines on the kitchenaid are NOT adjustable. It does not hold enough place settings. I find I need to use the second rack for small plates and bowls. Then the third rack (designed well) for cups and glasses. It does clean the dishes well but, it only has a 4 hour delay option. Definitely inconvenient not being able to choose when the dishwasher will start. Overall its fine but I preferred the European Bosech.

Love this dishwasher, so quiet and everything comes out sparklingly clean. The third tier is awesome.

So far, I love my new dishwasher. Still getting adjusted to how best to load my bowls! My dishes are so much cleaner! It’s hard to know if I've turned it on because it is SO quiet!

Quiet, cleans really well, love the third shelf for small utensils and other items. The prowash is excellent for figuring out how much water to use. The dishes are squeaky clean. I did a lot of research before I purchased a new dishwasher and found the KitchenAid to be a top competitor to other dishwashers. Thank you!

Can't believe how it cleans and very quiet. This is my 3rd kitchenaid dishwasher. They just keep getting better and better. The 3rd rack is huge!

The top rack is wonderful%. Allows for putting glasses out of the way from everything else and get them clean. The middlemshelve is not as good since it isn’t as stable as our previous dishwasher. When it comes to putting bowls or other dishes that require them to sit up they fall over due to the space between tongs and he fact that the tongs or legs of the rack aren’t as stable allowing the dishes to move or fall over under their own weight. Otherwise cleans well. A back light display would be helpful to see what your pushing.
