Don’t buy a portable dishwasher!

No problem with Best Buy, my problem is that we can’t find an adapter to connect it to our faucet. We had just installed a new faucet for $300.00. It’s a pull down faucet sprayer type.We have tried Lowes, Home Depot, and several plumbing supply stores. We have a $900 dishwasher we aren’t able to use. The adapter it came with is for the old style faucet’s with knobs on each side. I wish we had been told it wouldn’t work with the pull down faucets.

Good dishwasher for kitchens without a dishwasher

We have an old house. over 100 years old. Our kitchen doesn't have a place for a built-in dishwasher, and I'm not willing to remodel just to make room for one (neither is my wife, for that matter). When we bought the house 22 years ago, we simply purchased a portable dishwasher and were happy. Almost a year ago now, that old one died.
This dishwasher is much quieter than that old one, but it's also a lot slower. Our last one took about an hour to run the full cycle from start of the washing to end of the drying. This one take an hour to wash and another hour to dry, and that's on the "fast wash" setting! It does a good job, but good grief! This is why I only give it 4 out of 5 stars.
There really aren't many portable dishwashers made any more (or there weren't when we bought this). Most of what we saw were tiny little countertop units that wouldn't hold more than a single meal's worth of dishes, and wouldn't fit a large mixing bowl. This was the only option we found in over a week of looking. Thank goodness it works well! Unfortunately, It is expensive, but they've got you over a barrel if you need it.

Does a good job cleaning and I love the butcher block top. Comes with a faucet adapter, so I didn't have to buy one because it fit my faucet. I was prepared to spend a day or two hunting hardware stores.
Minor annoyance is that the buttons don't light up until pressed. Scared me when I first plugged it in and saw no signs of life. The buttons do light once pressed and the clean light comes on when it's done. The Normal cycle takes approx. 2 hours, but it has a 1-hour cycle mode that I have not tried.
The top rack is roomy, small plates fit in it, and the bottom rack (large plates and pots and pans) has so far accomodated everything I've tried to wash in it. This dishwasher is a workhorse, and I hope it remains so for years to come.

The first few times I used it, the dishes didn't come clean. It works better now. I usually put it on heavy. If i unplug it before the cycle completes i have to cancel it and restart or it won't begin the new cycle. I'll live with it.

I'm a single guy and I hate to do dishes so I bought this dishwasher and I am very glad! So far it has done an excellent job in the short amount of time I've had it. I really like how quiet it is! I just hook up the hose to my faucet and plug it in and it does the rest. I own several Whirlpool products and they all have served me well!

I've been using this dishwasher for 6 months now and so far it has done a fine job. It has plenty of room for lots of dishes and cleans great. All of my appliances are Whirlpool and I have never had a problem with any of them.

I use all finish dishwasher products for maintenance.
The finish rinse aid and finish weekly cleaners. I clean the filters as recommended. I use 1 fish packet inside machine and one in detergent holder with 1 cup vinegar for every load. I have never pre-washed any of these dishes and they always come out looking brand new. I've never had a dishwasher get my dishes this clean before.It took me awhile to convince myself to spend that much money but it WAY exceeded my expectations and made every cent worth it.

Exactly right for our household. Just a slightly updated version of our previous one we put 12 years on. Expect this one will serve just as well.

We purchased this as a gift for our daughter who had just bought her first house which did not have a dishwasher. She has been very happy with the effectiveness of both the washing and the drying of this unit.

My last review was only 1 star due to a heating problem. Once we figured out the hose had to be higher than the rack and fixed that, it tripped the sensor and is working fine.
Still only 3 stars due to price, I wish it had a stainless steel interior and no sanitize cycle. Talked a long time too but at least it’s washing with hot water and drying with heat now.

This is my first time using. Last 3 portable dishwasher's where GE's. But the last 2 didn't last over 5yrs each. So I bought this one. Quite and easy to move around in my small kitchen. Really like the solid black exterior and the gray interior. Also control panel is easy to use.
