Customer Ratings & Reviews

Good: Seems to clean well. Operates quietly. Holds plenty of items. Bad: First one arrived damaged in good packaging that showed no signs of damage on the outside. Must have been packaged damaged. BestBuy was swift to replace, kudos there. Does not dry at all unless you use a chemical rinse, and not completely if you do. My old one dried everything completely with no chemicals.

I am very happy with this dishwasher. It is quiet and washes well. Cycle time is a bit long (3 hrs) and not too many options, but overall no complaints about the washing. However, this is my second completely stainless dishwasher and the finger prints on this one are crazy. I am literally polishing it everyday. Not sure why that is.

We read a lot of reviews and the positives outweighed the negatives, so we purchased it. Its quiet and cleans the dishes great, very spacious and easily adjusts.

Great looking dishwasher at a great price point. Very quiet and cleans well! Lots of room with the side tray for silverware.

Great style and very quiet. Replaced all the kitchen appliances with stainless and this was a perfect addition. Delivered earlier than expected.

When our old dishwasher conked out, we did a lot of research before choosing this one. It has several choices of wash cycles and options; however it's up to you to decide which cycle you want to run depending on the load - how dirty, pots and pans, or just a quick run for lightly soiled dishware - you need to make the right choice, or your dishes may not come out as clean as you want them. This model has a removable filter which you must pay attention to. I recommend checking it as often as possible, as if there's junk caught in it and you run another load through, that junk is apt to end up on your dishes at the end of the wash. It also catches grease in the screen, which needs a scrub with some dishsoap and a small brush or toothbrush, both inside and out. The steel finish looks sharp in any kitchen, but be aware it'll show every spot and splash as shown in the first photo; be sure to buy the right kind of cleaner specific for stainless steel.

Dishwasher works really good. Very quiet and ample storage

Everything is great about this washer - except it wasn't until the first wash that we realized that one of the interior drawer clips was broken.

We have owned this dishwasher for approximately one month. We are very happy with it so far. On the plus side, it is ultra quiet when compared to our previous washer. We can sit in our living room (the couch is about 15 feet from the dishwasher) and easily watch TV or have a conversation while it is running without any trouble. Also, the dishes come out very clean...even if you put them in without a thorough pre-rinse. If I had any negative remarks, it would be two things. First, the wash cycle can be quite long...a full wash with hot cycle, sani-rinse and dry is 3.5 hrs+. There is a 1 hr cycle option but I'm not sure how clean the dishes get. The other negative is that the top rack doesn't get fully dry, nor does the walls of the washer. I do think that this washer comes in an all stainless steel interior option...if I could do over, I would get that one. All in all, it's an easy recommend for this very good product.

Our 15 year old dishwasher sprung a leak and we did not think it wise to repair it, so we began looking for a new one. As you might expect, we wanted to avoid all of the things we did not like about the old dishwasher in the new one. This dishwasher fits the bill perfectly. Our most important concern was noise. The old dishwasher could only be run at night while we slept because it was so loud. It also had a pretty short tub so tall glasses would not fit upright on the top rack. Delayed start was also an important feature. This dishwasher has many features I would consider "high-end" although they are not necessarily advertised as such. First, I think the dishwasher is listed at 55db (noise level) which seems like a large number, but it is actually very quiet. I would say there is no audible pump noise with this dishwasher. Our old dishwasher made sort of a loud grinding noise while it ran. With the new Whirlpool Gold, all you hear is the swishing of the water. It can even run during dinner because it is that quiet. Also the tub seems taller than my old dishwasher. I can put tall glasses on the top rack and the rack slides in an out without getting snagged. Lastly, the stainless steel exterior (door only) is real stainless, not painted, and looks sharp. The interior is not stainless but it is painted a dark grey which looks better than the white interiors you typically see. This is the first dishwasher I have ever bought (the first came with the house) and the dishwasher this one replaced was 15 years old. So some of these improvements are just the natural evolution you would expect in a newer product. That said, I'm very happy and impressed with it. It cleans and drys well, is quiet, and has all the key features like stainless steel front, adjustable racks, delayed start, multiple wash and dry modes, and more. At the end of the day you can get whatever you want if price is not a concern. But this dishwasher offers an exceptional value. At $449 (on sale), you can't beat it. Regular price is probably still under $500. Highly recommended.

It takes a bit of time to get used to the set up for putting dishes in it. The only draw back is the silverware holder. It can be put on the side of the door or in the rack, but it doesn't fit in the rack very well, and its a bit of a pain to put silverware in it. It runs great and is very quiet. I also love the timer on it. I only use the 1 hour wash because the regular wash is over 3 hours long.

We bought this dishwasher a couple of months ago to replace a Samsung, which rarely worked. So far it works pretty well. Every so often there are food particles still on the dishes after washing, not that big of a deal. I feel that the detergent dispenser located above the silverware basket has a design flaw. A large amount of detergent spills through an opening in the bottom into the basket instead of the floor of the dishwasher. The silverware sprayer isn’t strong enough to get all of the detergent off the silverware. The silverware basket does fit on the side of the bottom basket and it works great there. Tall spatulas don’t fit well in the silverware basket in either location without the sprayer arms or the top basket hitting them so they fit better in the top basket. You can hear this dishwasher run, but it’s not distracting. Our daughter says it’s much quieter than the one in her apartment! Only giving it 4 stars as it’s just an average dishwasher, nothing outstanding. But it does the job which is more than our previous one!

Very easy to install. Cleans even the toughest dishes and pans. Long cycle time but very quiet.

I love this dishwasher. It has lots of cool features- buttons all on top so front is very sleek, adjustable height on the top shelf, several options for silverware rack placement, and slots in the silverware rack for individual utensils. My kids actually don't grumble about emptying this dishwasher. Everything fits in it really well, and comes out sparkling. The cycles seem really long though, unless you choose the one hour option. I like how it gives you the time remaining in the cycle on the little timer.

I have been impressed by the dishwasher. It is super quiet. Out of habit I rinse all of the dishes and scrape the food off before putting them in the dishwasher but the dishes seem clean when they come out. The only complaint is the stainless steal leaves fingerprints but that is normal of all stainless steal. Just get some stainless steal wipes and the thing will look brand new.

We've had this dishwasher for several months now and I'm very happy with it. It looks great- very sleek and modern. The controls are hidden up on the top, which I wasn't sure about, but it works fine. It does a great job of cleaning dishes, is easy to load, and is very quiet. Plus, with the price we paid for it- it was a great bargain! Highly recommend!

First off, wow, love the looks of this dishwasher! And the price we got it at ($375) was a steal. It cleans the dishes great, was not difficult to install, and fits perfectly with our kitchen. That said, the drying of this dishwasher is very subpar - and seems to be consistent with other reviews. I didn't go through them with much detail prior to buying, since it was reviewed so well - but that seems to be a consistent issue with this dishwasher. Hopefully, there is some sort of workaround!

The dishwasher fits lot of dishes inside. It is also very quiet. My husband and I have been amazed at how quietly it cleans. It also tells you exactly how long each cycle is and how much water it will use. The cycles are very long but it does have a 1 hour cycle which i use most often. The dishes are always clean and the glasses have no water marks. Great Dishwasher. Im very happy with my purchase.

We bought this dishwasher because we had Whirlpool appliances when we built our house 25 years ago. We purchased this and a double oven to replace those appliances. The dishwasher was very easy to install as long as you are mechanically inclined, it is quiet and does a great job cleaning dishes. I did need to get used to the long cleaning times because it is a energy star appliance.

I really like this dishwasher. At first I was a little hesitant to choose this one because the price was so low. However, I considered the fact that my last dishwasher purchase was less than four years ago and I spent over $1,000 on a Samsung that never really worked well and ultimately broke completely in about three and a half years. After checking other reviews and seeing how well this one rated I decided to purchase it. I'm very glad that I did too. It is easy to load and has a lot of space. It also has several different cycles you can choose from and is so quiet when it runs, I can't even hear it in the next room. The best part is it cleans the dishes so well. They come out dry and spot free. I would definitely recommend this dishwasher to anyone who is in the market for a new dishwasher.
