Good buy for the money, works better than expected

I marked it 5 stars because I couldn't think of anything I don't like about this dishwasher, but I took away a star because I remembered that the drying features don't seem to do anything so the dishes are always drippy wet. But other than that I have no complaints. I've had it for about 5 months now and it works great. I really only use the 1 hor quick cycle so I don't know if there are any quirks to it, but it does what I need it to do and does it well. I'm happy with my purchase.

Our existing dishwasher needed a new control board which was half the price of replacing it. This unit is quieter, and does a wonderful job. Best Buy installers took care of the installation quickly and did it right.

Have had it for about 2 weeks and so far no issues. Washes and dries the dishes very well.

Incredibly easy to use, clean look and great features. Absolutely love the top rack and adjustable second shelf. So far the only knock is that it is somewhat loud during the first cycle. Which according the Whirlpool is completely normal. The explanation we received was that it was draining the unit prior to starting.

After a few weeks, started getting the F8 E4 error code, signaling a leak detected in the base pan. A technician came out and tried different things to fix. Afterwards, a few cycles later, I noticed a large puddle on the right side under the door, after running for a while. A technician came out and couldn't pinpoint the error, maybe thinking something was inhibiting one of the spray arms. Now, after another few cycles, I've noticed another leak, this time on right side in the middle of the unit (looking with a flashlight in between the unit and the cabinet). Another repair scheduled for 10 days from now. Bottom line do not buy this unit unless you want to babysit it for leaks. Never have I been more disappointed in Whirlpool.

Seems to be an okay (not great) dishwasher so far. This Whirlpool replaces a six year old LG and overall I would rate the LG as the better of the two. First the Whirlpool cleans the dishes just fine even on the one hour short cycle. Drying is not great and the dishes come out damp no matter the drying cycle selected. Biggest disappointment is that the Whirlpool seems to be made not nearly as robust as the old LG. The racks are kind of wobbly and the door is slightly out of square in the frame when you close it. The top left edge of the door hits the dishwasher frame first so you have to push slightly to the right to get it to close all the way. And yes the dishwasher was professionally installed by a licensed plumber with over 30 years experience. Like I said the Whirlpool does a good job washing the dishes but I think it is let down by less than great build quality. The LG was made much better in my opinion but only lasted six years before the electronics went out. I think a dishwasher's life span should be longer than that so I decided to try another brand.

Great dishwasher, love the layout. Washes well. My only complaint is that the interior has a weird smell. It came that way so maybe it is coming from the parts. It seems to be diminishing the longer we have it.

Great dishwasher, love my new appliance. Worked great, very quiet.

Love my new whirlpool dishwasher love the classic stainless steel finish so quiet compared to my old dishwasher

Quiet operating. Dishes come out very clean and glasses spotless. Easy to operate. Very pleased with our choice.

Love that this dishwasher has 3 shelves! Whirlpool is always a personal favorite!

nice looking and it works fine so far as I have only used it twice so far.

Quiet dishwasher, very efficient with water usage, and dishes come out consistently clean. Looks beautiful both inside and out, and controls are easy to access and use.

We have owned this dishwasher for about one month and are very pleased with it. I love the third rack and the top rack is adjusted with a touch of a button. It is quieter than the Bosch we replaced. So far, we love it!

This dishwasher is quiet and has alot of space. i really like the top shelf for large utensils. The racks are good for stacking dishes, making the most out of each wash. the buttons on the top of washer have good feedback so you know what you pressed; a problem with some washers that are under a counter. The wash cycles do take a long time but they are throughly clean.

Nice and quiet. The middle drawer is easy to adjust for the best dish placement.

Just installed my new dishwasher definitely nice and quite definitely like the third rack!

Cleans well, long run time, doesn't really dry very well. I have tried various drying settings but it seems to dry best if I leave it closed for a while after it's done so I set it to run through the night. The residual heat takes care of most of the moisture.

Looks great next to my other Whirlpool appliances, works great
