15 months in & the unit broke
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Dishwasher went out. I had a non-geek squad member come out to look at the dishwasher and they said that it was poorly installed and the pump is going out due to a hose not being properly elevated. The repair estimate I received is about $500. Of course, i'm 2-3 months out of warranty.

Whirlpool Dishwasher Ordered
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Thank you for the opportunity to rate this product. I researched numerous dishwashers online prior to going to our local store. In fact, I took the printout of this product with me. Ordered it directly from the store within minutes of talking with the sales associate. However, it is not due to be delivered until November 11th (due to manufacturing and color). I will be able to rate its operation at that time.

Whirlpool Makes Good Products!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am happy with this purchase. It seems to clean the dishes well and there is a lot of space in the dish washer to place various items. It is also easy to operate and clean.

Control board failure after just 1 year and 3 days
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worked well for 1 year. 3 days after the warranty expiration, it quit working with a control board failure. Whirlpool refused (rightfully) to cover it under warranty even though only 3 days had passed since expiration. The expectation when buying such a product from a reputable company is that it will last many years. Very disappointed! Lesson learned. Will try a different brand with longer manufacturer warranty.

Very VERY DISAPPOINTING!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Regretting this purchase. The wash cycles vary between 1 hr 38 mins (quick was) to over 3 1/2 hours for a regular or heavy duty wash. And the cherry on top is that it doesn’t dry the dishes well at all.

Do NOT buy! Poor quality!!
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Poor quality! I’ve had this dishwasher for 21 months, and last week the water inlet valve had to be replaced and this week it starts leaking water from the bottom of the door. None of this is covered by Best Buy.

Dish Washer
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the most quiet Dish Washer ever! We love and highly recommend it.

Very nice
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very quiet. Very deep everything fits. The cycles took me by surprise as a "normal" cycle took 4 hrs to run. We rise before we load the dishwasher because we don't run it every day so we changed to "light" wash. This is only an hour cycle and indont think we need more then that.

Buy another brand!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needs to run 3 hours or more for dishes and they are still not as clean as my 14 year old whirlpool that it replaced. Had to have delivery scheduled 3 times to I finally get one that wasn't damaged! I was a lifetime Whirlpool person but not anymore.

missing hose from manufacturer
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My plumber was not able to hook up this dishwasher, an extra hose was needed that was not included beyond the purchased extra kit and the plumbing supply house didn’t have one, nor did Home Depot. Plumber helped me load it for return… frustrating, disappointing and inconvenient… return was easy. No idea about performance of course.

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.

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.
