A Dishwasher should work more than 6 or 7 weeks.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.1st four weeks the washer was great. Had it installed 11/16, control panel was malfunctioning. called whirlpool, Set appointment for repair, 1/6, that was pushed back to 1/11, now I am told that the part is on backorder and there is no timeline as to when the part will be available. So bottom line At Whirlpool, $900.00 gets you a bit over 6 weeks of service.

I would recommend this to a friend Complete headache
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought our dishwasher in the beginning of May with delivery & installation & disconnect & removal of old dishwasher. Well here we are with this brand new dishwasher still in the box as of 6/25/22 because for some reason the installation keeps getting canceled. I guess we need to return this so we can go somewhere else or they need to install it like we paid for.

Posted .Hello. Using rinse aid will optimize your drying and wash performance. This dishwasher is specifically designed to be used with rinse aid for improved drying performance and controlling buildup of hard water deposits. The use of rinse aid greatly improves drying by allowing water to drain from the dishes after the final rinse. Rinse aid also keeps water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or streaks.
Great!
