Customers are saying
Customers are delighted by the 24" Built-In Dishwasher's quiet operation and excellent cleaning performance. Many appreciate its ease of use and adjustable racks, which improve functionality. However, some users note that cycle times are longer than expected, and a few have experienced issues with the control panel and door latch. The fingerprint-resistant stainless steel finish is also a frequently praised feature.

Good dishwasher so far
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Solid dishwasher so far after a few weeks. Enough cycle options, but could use a few more bells and whistles for placing dish items inside such as plate dividers that fold down or better options for long utensils. Overall though a solid dishwasher for the price.

Poorly made
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We had this dishwasher for just over a week before returning it, the door doesn't lock that well the catch is cheap, I ended up searching for issues around the latch and that seems to be the biggest comment about these machines. Replaced it with a Bosch and the quality is outstanding, such a shame as Maytag have always been my favorite brand.

Quiet and Clean
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have had this unit for about 3 weeks and we love it. It is so quiet, sounds like a gentle rain if at all. The dishes come out really clean and spotless. With our old dishwasher we had to wash the dishes before we put them in the dishwasher. I will admit I have been testing this one a bit and it has passed with flying colors.

Solid, quiet, gets the job done
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After a few weeks of use, this is a good, reliable dishwasher. No real negatives to mention. We don't use rinseaid stuff, so it doesn't fully dry some plastic items, but then again, I don't think there is any dishwasher that manages that task.

Best buy took care of me
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The first one the door wasn't closing all the way. It might have been the install. Regardless best buy sent another one and installed it. It works great now. I like the large stainless silverware tray and the bigger slots it has.

Buy the warranty!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you decide to purchase this dishwasher, make sure you purchase the extended warranty. For whatever reason, the top tray keeps coming out of the track and the track has had to be ordered and replaced. It's broken again. On Christmas Eve. Also, it doesn't really clean very well. My 15 year old JennAir was better. The only really good thing I can say about this dishwasher is that it is very quiet, otherwise one star only, or zero stars.

All the way
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got the maytag package deal. Love the look and style of everything. Also loved the fact that it American made so it easier to get any parts it anything goes on it. Can't go wrong with the extended warranty either. Geek squad all the way.

Sooo Unhappy. Multiple Washes, Bad Smells
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We are so unhappy with this dishwasher. It does a very poor job washing. often, i have to leave half the dishes in the washer and wash them a 2nd time! Even when the dishwasher is only half full, most still do not come clean. In addition, we thoroughly rinse all dishes, silverwear and even rinse glasses before loading the dishwasher. We use normal wash, automatic, high heat, low heat, no heat and everything in between. Have i mentioned how disappointed we are? The other issue... the dishwasher smells bad on the inside even when empty. We can empty it out, close the door, open it back up on 3 days and it smells like rotting food. WHY? We have no idea! This machine was installed in the same location as the one it is replacing. It's replacing a Whirlpool that was run 2x/wk for over 12 years! Even with the machine loaded up, over loaded at times, sitting for days... we NEVER EVER had this rotting smell, that our new Maytag gets. Rinsing with vinegar and water does nothing. IT's not a new appliance smell. Using the AFRESH tablets also does nothing to solve this issue. Using other "cleaning" products does not help. I have even tried several dishwashing detergents from liquid cascades to Finish and other Cascade pods or gelpacks... and tha has not helped. We have tried 2 different kinds of the "after rinse agent" both cascade and finish brands, and that has not helped either. This machine is barely 4 months and it's been horrible right from the start. We have the 5 year geek squad warranty... but im guessing that won't cover a full return and replacement. have i mentioned how disappointed we are?
