Bad open box at “Bestbuy” bad install!
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bestbuy did a faulty install of my dishwasher with incomplete parts, after a few months I had water all over my kitchen floor and ruined my ceiling down stairs costing me thousands of dollars! Tried to use warranty to find out this is a year old expired unit!! Bestbuy screwing their customers! Be careful

||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Returned it - way too noisy. I replaced a 9 year old whirlpool dishwasher that was quieter than this one. Went for the Samsung that was so much nicer and much quieter.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot impressed at all.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nothing wrong with this product. But as usual all new appliances nowadays are this one is also look great but nothing compare to old appliances. It is really small from inside. Nowadays manufacturers are trying to rip up people. Same with this product. Overall not impressed with this product. Honestly this is not the problem of Best Buy store. It is the manufacturer who make this kind of silly product.

Dishwasher review
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The dish rack for the large plates is too low and hurts my back when bending to load or unload.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendWhat title?
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Dishwasher was defective. Had to reorder a new one that is again delayed. I ordered dishwasher at the beginning of February and still don’t have one and now looks like it will be the end of May until I get the new one. Very disappointed

I would recommend this to a friend Very good but one puzzling minor imperfection.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good so far but wonder why the holes/gap on the bottom base board adjustment are so exposed. Detracts from the appearance if you notice them.

great job
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.works great installers were great too They came early and did a great job tested for leaks
I would recommend this to a friend Dry function does not work well
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Looks nice and is quiet but the dry function is only a fan and not heat so it is ineffective.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot Excellent condition with crappy install
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the dishwasher. However, labeling it as "Excellent" was complete crap. We have now had 3 different people out to install as it keeps moving due to the fact that at least one of the legs was stripped and they had to shim it which then slides off the shims every 4-6 months.

DO NOT BUY
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Don't buy!!! Dishwasher had strong burning smell when used. Best buy had someone come look at it. They said it was normal. THAT SMELL WAS NOT NORMAL. The very next time I used the dishwasher, it completely stopped working. No lights.. nothing. This dishwasher is a lemon. Maybe I got the bad one outta the bunch. I highly DO NOT recommend. I wish I could give it negative stars.

Take it back!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had this installed 12/3/20. On 1/8/22 the thing started leaking all over my house when I was not home. Plumber here verified its mot the plumbing, it’s the dishwasher. Geek Squad laughed at me for not purchasing the extended warranty and hung up on me.

Regrets
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Most ridiculous difficult install I have ever seen, it washes good but never would have bought it, if I had known about install and the cost to have it done, and it didn't come with all the needed parts
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Drying not so good
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Cleaning is great but in order to dry everything you must use the extended dry. Does not dry well.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendGarbage Product
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolute garbage product. Best Buy no help at all. Purchased this dishwasher in Sept 2023. Leaked after second use. Waited two months for a replacement tub. Leaked again. Best Buy offers zero assistance if their warranty is not purchased. Whirlpool reps, equally useless.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for a dishwasher in this one was in Home Depot, Lowe’s, and Best Buy, and has the highest reviews in all three stores. I bought it at Best Buy because of their delivery and set up and prices as well as the geek squad warranty is better than the other two warrantees. I love geek squad. Great dishwasher.
