Customer Ratings & Reviews

My old dishwasher was a cheap basic model that was not really installed correctly and so the sink tended to train into the dishwasher... ugh! When that unit started making weird clicking noises I decided it was time to upgrade. This unit was on sale and had excellent reviews, plus at the time had a special offer of free installation through Best Buy, so I decided to splurge. After about a month I am very happy with the unit! It seems to clean well and is not super-complicated to understand; I just load it, add detergent, and then push "normal wash," "sanitize," and "heated dry off," then "start," and then a few hours later the dishes are done. Also, the front door panel does not seem to show finger prints or splash marks. I was super happy with the delivery and installation provided by Best Buy; not only was it free, but the guy called ahead, was polite, and was super-competent: he installed and tested the unit -- and fixed the drainage problem without tearing up my kitchen cabinets -- in less than an hour and a half. He even left a phone number in case there was a problem that showed up later, but I have not needed to call. I am very happy with the purchase so far, and especially with the ease and quality of the delivery and installation service.

I don't have to prewash dishes with this Maytag dishwasher. Dishes come out sparkling clean even if peanut butter was left on a knife or pans were lefty with crusty residue prior to washing. Large items, such as crock pots, fit easily into the roomy bottom tray. The top tray has rows of varying heights so that even wine glasses can fit on the top rack. The motor runs extremely quietly. I was surprised that the auto setting is deemed the most energy efficient, even though it runs for over two hours. I just run the dishwasher at the end of the day, and I've kept it on the auto cycle. I would definitely buy this dishwasher again, and recommend it to others.

My 4 star rating is due to the first machine I received. The first one was dropped off rather quickly by the delivery team. They left quickly without opening the box to view the contents. I opened the box to find the dishwasher had been dented by the movers. The second one was delivered a week later and this time was inspected for defects. It was flawless in appearance and has worked perfectly since I installed it. I would recommend this washer to someone looking for a good washer at a reasonable price. Watch out for washers that do not have heating elements. They take a long time to dry dishes because they use the ambient air to dry for them. This one has a good element and will dry shortly after washing.

The Maytag - 24" Built-In Dishwasher - Fingerprint Resistant Stainless Steel Maytag Built-In Dishwasher:883049409122 is an excellent replacement for our older one. The stainless steel case and the quality of the two racks is excellent. It works great and has different cycle options for time saving or heavy cleaning. Both the Bestbuy online and in-store experiences for this item were great.

We are finding out how much we love Maytag! This dishwasher was truly needed and owning a Maytag was overdue! It's quiet, efficient and our dishes are spotless.....Thanks!

Current Dishwasher finally went out and wife and I went to Best Buy to find a great dishwasher replacement. We walked in straight to the dishwasher section and a lady greeted us and showed us the Maytag on sale that had free delivery and free installation. After looking at other dishwashers for 5 minutes wife chose the first one we looked at. Two men came and installed it in record time - so professional - we just love the Maytag we bought. Great experience all around. Thanks!

I purchased this dishwasher as a replacement for an older dishwasher that stopped working. I choose this one mainly because of the price and promotion for free installation. Also it looked to have good reviews. I got the stainless steel model since it was on sale for the same price as the white and black. Overall appearance of the dishwasher is ok. I took off the stickers and even the Maytag emblem on the front which I thought looked a little out of place. The emblem came off pretty easy and did not leave any mark behind which was nice. I noticed the door panel on mine kind of pops in and out depending on the position. Not a big deal, but it is probably not supposed to do that. The door is kind of hard to open, but it is adjustable. Note, if you are going to adjust it, make sure to do it before it is installed. Space inside is ok but somehow it seems to have less space compared to my old dishwasher even though they are the same size. The top rack looks like it might be adjustable but this feature is only available on select models. The racks are a little difficult to move in and out and feel a bit wobbly. I tried the quick wash first which goes for about 1 hour. The noise level is quieter than my last dishwasher which is nice. You can still hear it from the next room, but it is not too bothersome. Dishes will take some time to dry after the quick wash. Overall the cleaning job was ok. The normal wash takes about 2 1/2 hours. It is supposed to use less water even though it runs longer. On this cycle, it does the heat dry option which helps dry the dishes but they were still a little wet after the wash. Some glasses on the top rack were still dirty and needed to be washed manually even after the normal wash. Overall I probably would not recommend this dishwasher unless you are on a budget and cannot find a better option in this price range. I also recommend seeing the dishwashers in store if possible to get a better understanding of them in person rather than just going by reviews online.

I've had much better luck going by the reviews of products by actual purchasers of the products rather than going by the consumer magazines. To be fair this dishwasher only received middling recommendations in the consumer mags which were in deep contrast to the reviews by actual users who were by and large immensely pleased with this model. So, we've only had it installed for a week and I can tell you I never expected it to perform this well. After seeing how good the initial results were in cleaning everything we intentionally put in dishes and bowls with baked on and dried up food which we didn't think there was any way the dishwasher could clean them. They had stuff on them that you'd really have to scrub at if you wanted to clean them manually. Nonetheless they came out perfectly clean! We were stunned to say the least. As far as sound is concerned, I have to say you can barely tell this thing is running, it's that quiet. Our old dishwasher you could hear all over the house. We could tell if it was running from our bedroom which is pretty far away from the kitchen. With this one there is no way we could here it running from our bedroom. As far as the time it takes to wash dishes is concerned, it's very much in line with what we've seen from other models, even the more expensive one. For us the time is not an issue. There is a 1 hour quick cycle which we could use if we wanted to. However we generally start the dishwasher before we go to bed and then unload it in the morning. So, the difference between it taking 1, 2 or even three hours is irrelevant. I was going to install it myself however Bestbuy offered free delivery and installation with this manufacturer at the time I purchased it. I was very impressed and happy with the installation. First of all I was only expecting one guy to show up. There were three. Second, they showed up exactly on time. Third, they installed it with great care, taking their time to fit it into the cabinet as best as possible and very carefully, making sure not to damage any part of the cabinet it fit into. Fourth, they were very fast and efficient. They were at my house for less that a half hour. Couldn't ask for more. More on the dishwasher itself, I'm very impressed with how much we can fit into it. I am also impressed by how well it dries. I don't see where anyone would be disappointed in this model. Perhaps others are looking for things we were not looking for. For example I find the notion of hidden controls to be rather irritating. Others may be looking for that feature and find it beneficial. Then there's the matter of it's price. This model is close to half the price of the dishwashers recommended by the consumer magazines. I've checked them out and don't see for our purposes what the advantage would be of spending close to twice the price for the consumer magazine recommended models. I highly recommend considering this model.

I bought this to replace my current dishwasher from last century who decided to stop doing its one job...clean dishes. I installed this one according to directions and found it straightforward and easy. (My first time installing a dishwasher) Things to note: -Inside cavity holds alot of dishes and allows for pots and cookie sheets without getting stuck on top tray. -I find that it is very quiet when running and adore the easy button display. -It has sanitation that we need for newborn bottles. -The silverware basket holds alot and has slots for each individual piece for optimum cleaning -It cleans well and glasses come clean and clear as long as you use rinse aid. -Do not overfill otherwise it will not clean well. -Beautiful looking and no fingerprints. Overall, I love this dishwasher so far! Based on its current performance, I would definitely purchase a Maytag again.

I did not expect the dishwasher to be so quiet. This is a great product the stainless steel is really fingerprint resistant. The dishes are really clean. My only complaint would be how long the cycles take to clean. Otherwise I am very happy with the results. Other features include auto wash, delay, and control lock.

Best Stainless Steal tub dishwasher for the Money Period. Dishwasher is very quiet and cleans dishes great. Very nice looking machine and doesn't smudge up with fingerprints. Plenty of room for a large load of mixed dishes.

This replaced a 6 year old LG that quit. The new Maytag washes and dries just like it should. I usually use the quick cycle which cuts down on the time and the dishes still come out clean. Installation was easy, it looks nice, loads okay and is quiet. I wish the top rack was arranged a bit differently, but I've had many dishwashers and have yet to find one with a good top rack configuration.

Meets every single expectation. I echo every 5 star review. This thing is a beast and for the value...look no further. The inside is huge, you can't even tell it's running and it would probably blow the paint off of your car. Again, it's a beast. A good lookin' one at that! I did a self install, the only PITA is that you must remove the hardware box to connect your wires. It's mounted upside down and backwards. I'm assuming they do this to force you to splice and terminate your wires correctly. You definitely cannot shortcut tgat part. Otherwise, barring any home plumbing malfunctions...find your breaker and it's 3 wires. After that it's simply 1 wrench point at the water supply and 1 screwdriver point to the sink drain. Done. If you are even somewhat handy, don't pay the $150 install fee. Seriously. You can do it. If you have a disposal and are apprehensive and/or not so handy, don't even try it because the electric panel is confusing if you've never unmounted (the only part that isn't really R&R) FYI, it is totally normal for your new dishwasher to have a slight amount of moisture. This is standard across the industry. This is due to actual live testing. Mine was built a week prior to delivery. Hope that helps with a few of the negative reviewers whom think they got a used unit. This is a GREAT dishwasher.

Relatively easy to install on my own. Buy the $20'ish install kit as well, you'll need it. I'm used to a door that clicks loudly or has a lever to securely close it, this has neither, so it takes some getting used to. If you open the door quickly to add a dish after you start it, you will get splashed by a jet. Other than that, it cleans perfectly, dries very well, runs smoothly & very quietly, & is metal inside & out except for some moving parts. We are both very pleased & it was a great value. The $15 removal of the packing materials & old dishwasher was a great value & very convenient. I'd give it 4.75 stars.

Pros stainless steel inside and out different wash cycles sanitizing mode quiet 10 year warranty price Cons plastic jets dish trays not adjustable - trouble fitting large wine glasses in top tray not the prettiest This replaced a 30 year old washer, so the bar was set very low. I chose this model based on research, features and customer reviews. I recommend it with only one small caveat. Heed the user manual and buy the liquid drying aid it recommends, otherwise you will have spots on your glassware. But this is common for all other dishwashers I have seen at friends' and family's houses. Highly recommended.

Looks great. Cleans very well. Disappointed since most retailers said the top rack was adjustable and mine isn’t. This was an important feature for me. Also, with silverware basket not located on door like my old whirlpool, I can fit less dishes in the machine. Very quiet. I can actually watch tv and hear the dialogue while this machine is running.

this unit looks grea. install was a breeze with accompnying measurements. runs long, cycle is over 2 hours, but is very quiet and dishs are clean. love the built in disposal.

Dishwasher bought to replace a fairly new LG model which had required frequent maintenance and eventually leaked all over floor. New Maytag is much quieter and cleans far better. Only thing is cycles take a long time to complete, but it's worth the results. Great solution for in-home use.

Does a great job with our dishes. Love the stainless steel interior. Purchased this product based on our experience with our Maytag microwave. This dishwasher is also surprisingly quiet compared to our previous unit.

This dishwasher is quiet, easy to use, and gets the dishes clean. I bought this unit based on the good reviews, and the availability in color ( black). It replaced a 14 year old unit from a different manufacturer. The only con I have so far is that it doesn't hold as many dishes as our old unit, bit we are otherwise pleased.
