Customer Ratings & Reviews

The size and capacity of this machine is great. The only problem I have had so far is that when the bottom rack is out all the way and you get it fully loaded, it does not always flow smoothly back into the machine, it can dip and try to tip so you have to be careful when pushing the rack back in.

I had originally set out to buy a dishwasher for less than $300. The trouble, as I found out, is that at that price point they're all the same. Frigidaire, GE, KitchenAid, Kenmore, Whirlpool... They're essentially all the same dishwasher made by Whirlpool in Clyde, OH. And the feel of those units gives you a sense that not only are they cheap, they're also inexpensive. At the next ($400-ish) level, you have Samsung, LG, Bosch -- and more expensive versions of the Whirlpool. For me, it was a bit of a roll of the dice. I like our Samsung refrigerator (8 years old now), and I liked the stainless interior of this one, as well as the lack of heating elements inside the tub. This was a point that some people said was less desirable, butI like being able to put plastic things (like blender carafes and Delrin cutting boards) on the bottom, without melting them. Installation was no more or less difficult than any other dishwasher, but the channels on the bottom of the dishwasher that provide places for the electrical and plumbing hookups is a nice touch. Similarly, the rear height adjustment (from the front) as well as leveling feet at the front makes for easy, perfect leveling. Within reason, everything that goes in comes out clean and spot free (with a rinse agent). Sure, if you put bowls in the top with dried on oatmeal, they probably won't come clean. That's not really the dishwasher's fault. It's very quiet, and all the controls, and everything you touch (racks, baskets, etc) has an upmarket feel to it. Think: the interior fit and finish of an Acura/Infiniti/Lexus. Nothing feels like it's going to break off in your hand like, say, the windshield wiper control stalk on my 18 year-old Subaru. But that was the sense I got from the Whirlpool-based stuff. Some complained that there's not enough granular control over the cycles and settings. I don't know. I put it on SmartAuto+ and let it do its thing. Everything comes out so fresh and so clean, clean #OutKast. For $400, I think it's a very nice dishwasher, and I would buy one again.

Beautiful black with stainless stell interior. Plenty of room. Comes with two removable silverware racks - if you only need to fill one that leaves additional room for more dishes! Very Quite. The only thing that's I don't like is it seems to have trouble with powdered dishwasher detergent - sometimes doesn't dissolve. So I just switched to gel.

After a Maytag died JUST past its 1 year warranty, we decided to try something new. Was torn between Bosch and Samsung. Went with the Samsung due to great sale price (was a higher end model than the Bosch we were considering). First, love how quiet this is. In an open floor plan, this was really important to us, and this has lived up to its "silent" promise. It's easy to use, and I like the "smart" cleaning option (dishwasher decides how dirty, long, etc it should run). It can also fit a lot of dishes into it. Sleek design. Many people complain about the effectiveness of drying the dishes. I always make sure to use a Jet-Dry type product, which helps the drying process. Even still, some dishes aren't 100% dry after a cycle, but it's not enough to bother me. I usually notice it mostly on the top rack cups. I just take a towel and wipe across everything quickly before unloading-- sometimes. Again, doesn't really bother me that much. Overall, I think this is a great dishwasher, though I am only 2 months in.

I am not sure yet how I feel about this dishwasher. I have had it for approximately 3 weeks and have used it at least 5 times (I'm single, so I don't use as many dishes). I am having trouble loading it to my satisfaction (bottom rack, the tines don't line up from front to back, so I can't get my cookie sheets in correctly and my plates are at an angle, etc.) I'm sure I will figure it out in time. I LOVE how quiet it is. The very first time I ran it, I had to get up and go check to make sure it was running........I was making ice tea in my ice tea maker on the counter above it and the tea was making WAY more noise than the dishwasher. I don't like how long the cycles are (my old, noisy one was finished w/washing and drying in 1 1/2 hrs and this one washes for about that long....on the short cycle!).

Who likes gross food sitting in a dishwasher filter (who wants to clean that? Ewww) and having that sitting in your dishwasherwith 'clean' dishes? Not me! I bought this dishwasher because i wanted clean dishes while also having a a hard food disposer/grinder, a flexible rack system, and a sanitization cycle. Lets be realistic who wants to scrub out pots and pans and dogbowls? With this dishwasher, i dont have to. It has an awesome flex rack system that has a removeable bottom section, it can fit a 7 qt crock pot, a tall pitcher for iced tea, plus loads more room for other stuff. It pretty much fits just about anything, top rack moves up and down to accomodate large items on bottom rack and full sized plates on top rack (yey! Pots now all fit in bottom rack). You do have to remove top rack to change height but way easy, honestly its less complicated than some of the other 'easy' rack moving systems. It doesnt have a delay start but other than that for the money its awesome as i priced models with similar features that cost 400 to 500 +. No delicate cycle but it does have an auto cycle which i love! It is really quiet too, silence is beautiful.... :) It gets dishes really clean too, no more re-washing! Overall an awesome buy cause its gets all my dishes, pots and pans clean while providing the flexibility for large items while all the while you wonder did i turn on my dishwasher?

This is a great dishwasher. I would purchase it again. The only 2 things I would change about it are: 1) I would make the top rack easier to load cups. They seem to tip sideways as the bottom of the top rack is only flat on two rows. The others are slanted (I think this is a feature, but would prefer flat so nothing tips) 2) I would make the silverware holders sturdier. The silverware holders tip sideways if not balanced equally on both sides. They also come off quite easily (I think this is a feature, but I would prefer they are stationary). Other than those two complaints it is a really nice dishwasher that cleans the dishes very well and is also very quiet. Happy I purchased it!

Very good dishwasher for the price ,very quite at time seems it's not working so quite, cleans very well ,just seems that it doesn't dry very well overall great dishwasher for the price.

First Samsung dishwasher. Very quiet and a great price. Product wasn't in stock but had it in 3 days. Easy to install. Only 'con' is that silverware baskets are on side so you have to open door fully. Also tall spatulas etc do not clear water blades so have to lie down on top shelf but I can live with that!

This does a real nice job on the dishes and is very quiet. This is the first model that we have owned with a built in disposal. The stainless interior stays quite clean. The drawback is the bottom rack running off track when you push it back in. It has to be pushed from just the right spot to avoid derailment. Compared with the flaws of the cheaper dishwashers we have had it is livable.

The best thing about this dishwasher is it is very quiet and energy efficient. Beyond that it is very challenging to load. The racks have very oddly placed tines that make getting even simple items like plates a pain. Due to this it has to be run twice as often. At the time of purchase we were not informed that the front kickplate was not included. After getting the run around from Best Buy, the manufacturer agreed to send us one. However, Best Buy did not provide the correct information to the manufacturer for weeks. At this time the dishwasher still does not have a kickplate and Best Buy has done very little to remedy this. After being misinformed and getting no help from Best Buy, we will not make another appliance purchase from this company. Very disappointed.

Replaced an older dish washer. Does a much better job at cleaning. Plenty of room on both racks. Top rack is adjustable so can load larger items. Dishes are clean and dry when finished. Very quiet while running.

Overall the dishwasher is performing well. It is quiet and seems to clean even dishes with small amounts of food. However, I have had to rewash a few items by hand.

A very quiet dishwasher and does a great job at cleaning the dishes. The only complaint I have is that the top rack does not adjust enough for different glasses.

For the money, I think this is a very good buy. Easy installation and cleans dishes very well. Just wish it would dry standing water on dishes a little better.

cleans things nice and sparkly, quiet. like the product for what it is

Quiet. Seems to clean well. Usable features nothing too elaborate. Has very accessible and understandable interface. Good installation procedures and documentation. Racks are not the best since the dishes always are disturbed when pushing the racks into place could be better positioned.

Cleans well, very quiet. Good overall machine for the money. Only complaint is you can not shut off heat dry cycle and if you do not use the dry cycle chemicals the machine automatically adds 20 min. To the heat dry time.

Runs very quiet and I like how the dishwasher looks, solid food disposal, sanitize cycle and the stainless interior. It holds a lot of dishes. Taller dishes, cups, bottles fit easily. Glasses have a tendency to tip over due to large holes in the top rack. Small lids and such fall through the same holes. Bottom rack comes off the track easily making it hard to push back in when done. Silverware baskets catch on the side making the rack have to be repositioned before closing. Dried foods do not come off for the most part even when ran through the longer cycles or a second time.

I was looking to replace an old dishwasher, which didn't clean well at all. We had not used it in years, and let me say, that was getting old. We decided to look at Best Buy, as appliances were on sale. I had actually researched another model, and after speaking with the salesperson, we decided on this one. It has surpassed our expectations. I was a tad disappointed that the mfgr recommended a rinse aid, but when the full amount is added, it's good for 40 washes. The silverware baskets are great, and if you're a wine drinker, the top rack has a stemware clip. It's removable if you don't need it. It's quiet, and you can barely hear it if you're in the kitchen. We're more than pleased with our purchase.
