Customer Ratings & Reviews

Replacing 10 yr. old Maytag dishwasher that was inefficient in cleaning dishes (dishes came out dirtier than when they went in). Repair part costs exceeded the amount for new machine. What I Like: This machine is very quiet. Barely hear it running. Stainless steel interior, Touch pad (no dials), In-unit food disposal, 3 level wash, Great job cleaning. Good drying. Nylon racks. No exposed heating element. What I don't like: The tines on the dish racks seem too close together to place bowls and larger items efficiently, takes up more space than need be. But this may take some experimenting by me changing placement of items around. I'd give this dislike only a -.25 of a star, since this might be rectified by me and has no bearing on the function ability of the machine. I also found the rack glides to be a little flimsy than I was used to, again personal preference. I wish this model had a delay setting. Installation: We installed ourselves. If this is your first install, I highly recommend getting a professional. The electrical hook-up had to be modified from our existing set up and required a little more know how than average. Accessing the water supply and the electrical were a little difficult. Cleaning/Efficiency: I'd rate this a 9.5 out of 10. Very efficient, very quiet. As per instructions, I scraped plates of debris but did not rinse them. Dishes and glass wear came out clean and clear of spots. A rinse aid is suggested by the mfg, so I used one. Utensil basket is off to the side, which I like. I purposely loaded the machine with a heavily soiled glass measuring cup, peanut butter coated knives, heavily soiled and dried on glass baking dish- All came out clean. Have not tried pots or pans. Not a perfect rating because I don't want to depend on a rinsing agent. Side Notes: Product arrived quickly and we installed ourselves. Our first test run revealed a broken fan during the drying cycle, blades rubbing and noisy. Best Buy picked up damaged unit, and installed new one. Exchange and return was no problem at all with Best Buy staff. No problems with the new machine. Great Dishwasher - Highly recommend. (This Samsung dishwasher is my third Samsung kitchen appliance - I also have refrigerator and microwave. I've replaced over 18 years: 4 GE Microwaves, 1 GE dishwasher, 1 Maytag Dishwasher, I Kenmore fridge, 2 washer/dryer's - All American made. LOVE LOVE LOVE Samsung appliances!!)

I like the black exterior. Not the high end but it does the job.

I have only used my dishwasher a couple of times, so far it's great.

Great dishwasher and works well. Stainless steel tub is great.

I just love my dishwasher, no noise, and has extra cleaning system which it also kill bacterias around the machine. My husband acknowledged right away, how wonderful what I bought, the quiet machine as if it is not running.

Appears to be a good basic dishwasher. I'm still trying to learn how to stack dishes in it, so I'm not commenting on that design yet. Let's see if I can get used to it and make sense of their design choices. Controls are easy to learn and use. Seems to wash dishes well. Note, however, that i still rinse all my dishes. I still don't understand how much a dishwasher will scrape off the plate, so I just do it myself and sponge it down before loading it. That may filter my comments. I don't like the way the racks push back into the dishwasher after loading. I am constantly running it off the track and have to stop and reset the angle and c-a-r-e-f-u-l-l-y push the rack back into the machine. (I am not rough in handling the racks, so I consider this a design flaw.) Minor problem, but irritating. It is not a very noisy machine, much better than the one it replaced. I am generally pleased with it, but if you look at it in the store, push the racks in and out several times and see if that is going to be a problem for you. I'd still recommend it. Cant see paying $800 to $1,000 for a stupid dishwasher and it seems to be a fairly decent dishwasher for the price. I'd rather buy a horse.

i think once I figure the best loading I will really like it.

It's not a bad dishwasher, quiet and energy efficent.

Not as quiet as I expected after reviewing it online. My neighbor bought a dishwasher that was a higher decibel level than this one and is much quieter than this. Difficult to load, not enough space for bowls.

My old dishwasher was broken so I had to get a new one. Being a college student I didn't want to get an overly expensive one but I wanted one that would get the job done. This dishwasher does that and then some. I am very happy with this purchase.

I am not happy with my purchase at all!! It stopped working 7 days after we bought!! I called Samsung and there were going to come out and fix it- they never showed!! By the time I called Best Buy you guys said so sorry you are past your 15 day return period!! So, now I have a $500 piece of junk that I can use our return!!! I don't have extra money and this was a major decision to purchase a dishwasher and now I regret the day I bought it!!

While I do think it was a bit expensive, it is a wonderful dish washer ...much better than the one we had. We have several Samsung products and are pleased with them all.

This is almost a perfect dishwasher for the money. Its just that the flatware tray is way too small for a typical load. even older dishwashers have bigger trays.

This dishwasher is exactly what we needed. No fuss, easy to operate, would recommend it to anyone.

My washer is a lemon. It produces an intolerable loud noise during the rise cycle. Two service calls (and time-off from work) and I'm still going back and forth with different customer service reps. trying to get a replacement. Comparing it to my previous dish washer (12 years old), you would think that the technology did not advance. I have other Samsung products that I'm happy with. Not this one.

I have wanted a new dishwasher for a while. I searched many places and am soooo Happy with this one!!!!!!

I only miss the rinse cycle becaus i do not nee to wash dishes often so sometimes i just need to rinse so i ca let the dishes sit. other tha that it is great. it was also my choice

I don't know why- but it does not dry all the way- not sure if it's me or the dishwasher

This dishwasher works great. Cleans the dishes with no problem drying them. I would recommend. Been using about 1 month.

Love it had it installed by Best Buy great product.
