Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the 24" Top Control Built-In Dishwasher with Stainless Steel Tub's quiet operation, cleaning ability, and ease of use. Many appreciate its spacious interior and attractive design, while some users noted issues with the silverware basket and reported concerns about the dishwasher's long cycle times and overall reliability. The top rack also received some negative feedback. Installation, however, was generally considered straightforward.

    We got this when our old GE dishwasher was past expiration date. Seems good, quiet, functional and perfect for our needs. BB and their installers were great!

    Wonderful dishwasher. Very quiet. Never had one this quiet. Does a great job. Love the adjustable top rack and additional space for silverware basket. Takes a little learning as to which wash cycle to use. Who ever deigns the decibel reduction on this dishwasher, needs to transfer to Whirlpool washing machines and work on that noise!

    Having lived with a broken/unusable dishwasher for 6 months - just one that works is a huge improvement. Not only does this Whirlpool model do a great job cleaning/sanitizing my cookware, it does it so quietly. It can be difficult to even hear it running. And except for items with a concave bottom that trap water, the extended heat dry cycle does indeed leave dishes dry.

    Effective Dishwasher

    This is an efficient, reasonably quiet dishwasher. It does a great job of thoroughly cleaning dishes and the sensor mode is great for the smaller mid-week loads (I am not a pre-rinser so this saves a lot of water). If you get it, make sure you tell it to dry your dishes or they will be wet. I wish the non-quick wash cycles took less time.

    Very quiet dishwasher and the dishes come out nice and clean. The two things that prevent me from giving it 5 stars are the following: 1) the rinse aid fill port is very small and hard to use 2) dishes sometimes do not dry fully and have drops of water on them. This occurs even when using the extended dry option

    Replacement for a 20 year old Kenmore

    After 20 years of faithful service my Kenmore dishwasher (also built by Whirlpool) gave out. Replaced it with this Whirlpool dishwasher. I’ve only had it about three weeks but so far do good. Super quiet to the point of being totally silent. Adjustable upper rack is very useful. Three wash arms ensure good cleaning. The silverware rack in the door is impractical so, I move it to the lower rack. Problem solved. I’m still pre-rinsing the dishes just to prevent waste build up in the machine or its plumbing as s lot of problems of that kind are reported in YouTube videos. Got the extended five Year warranty based on posted recommendations for peace of mind. The installers from Quality Kitchen were ok. Insist on connecting the dishwasher drain to the sink air gap and not to the disposal drain to prevent garbage disposal backing up into the dishwasher drain. YouTube videos noted this as a glaring problem and a common damage to the dishwasher and thereby shortening the life of the machine. Recommend running a cup of white vinegar every couple of months to sanitize the machine and keeping the drain hose clear of debris.

    We have been quite pleased with our Whirlpool dishwasher. It does a fine job of cleaning all of our dishware (we do still rinse things off before putting them in the dishwasher out of force of habit). The unit itself is exceptionally quiet - a bigger surprise than we anticipated. All in all, the price/value of the unit makes us happy consumers.

    Does a great job of washing; dishes, pots, utensils all come out cleaner than the GE unit it replaced. Interior design makes for excellent capacity and ease of placing items. Stainless interior is a delight in that it does not streak or seem to collect hard water deposits. Controls are a bit touchy but once we learned how to use them we are extremely pleased with this dishwasher.

    This Whirlpool dishwasher is performing well for us. We had a Bosch previously and can’t tell a significant difference in the noise level when the unit is running. It is very quiet. Dishes are getting clean with no real issues. The only negative for me is the silverware rack is a bit low in capacity.

    Our new dishwasher works exactly a described by the salesman. Installation was a breeze and we experienced no problems. The dishwasher is so quiet that most of the time we do not know it is running. Our dishes come out very clean and dry when it is done running. excellent product!

    I've always liked Whirlpool dishwashers. They are reliable and I like the utensil drawer on the door - it's a space saver. I also like the adjustable top rack so I can fit my wine glasses. This machine is quiet, cleans and dries dishes well. It's what I needed and I thought the price was reasonable. I would recommend it.

    This dishwasher has been excellent so far. It is quiet, does a great job of cleaning, and for one of the newer energy savings models actually does a competent job of drying. The ability to put the utensil rack on the door opens up a lot of space and the adjustable upper shelf makes putting pans up top a possibility too. The clean front is also very stylish.

    I purchased a new Whirlpool dishwasher from Best Buy. I’m very satisfied with this product and have no problems or regrets with the purchase and installation. I upgraded my dishwasher to a interior stainless unit. It’s much quieter and more efficient than my old one. I recommend it. Thanks

    We had our last Whirlpool for over 15 years so we decided to go for the same brand hoping for the same longevity. After reading reviews I was worried about the possibility of noise. Let me say this dishwasher is Very quiet. The top basket lifts up a little higher to make room on the lower deck for large dishes. Nice addition. I prefer my utensil rack to be on the lower rack not the door and it works just like our old washer did so no problems there. I'm guessing the long wash times are some how due to it being energy efficient ? I use the 1 hour with a dry time added. So total time was 1 hour 20 min. total. At that point it wasn't completely dry so we just left it till morning. No problem since I don't need put them away till later anyway. So far we are very happy with the new washer and the way it looks is very nice.
