Whirlpool - 24" Tall Tub Built-In Dishwasher - Stainless-Steel

Don't expect all the fancy bells and whistles that high end dishwashers provide, but this unit is great for the price you pay. Looks clean, it's fairly quiet (came from a 20+ yr old dishwasher so that was loud), easy to use, and most importantly, CLEANS YOUR DISHES VERY WELL!!!....and that's all I have to say about that.....

This dishwasher is great for the money. My husband and I got it on clearance to replace our ancient one. The dishes always come out clean without having to pre-rinse. And the delay option is wonderful since I am forever forgetting to turn the dishwasher on before we go to bed. Also, it runs very quietly.

Replaced a Whirlpool with another Whirlpool. Got this one on sale when it dropped under $300 and my old one kicked the bucket. Feels like there is less space on this model, so plan on running it at least once daily for a family of four. LOVE that they moved the silverware rack on this model - the old one sat in front of the soap door and would occasionally block it from opening. Couldn't bring myself to spending any more on a dishwasher that MAY last five years like my previous one did. So far so good.

Great dishwasher for the money. Works well, easy to install and not too loud.

Good unit. Looks good and washes great! It does NOT dry dishes at all. The problem... it does not have a large enough port to exhaust the moisture from the unit to allow the dishes to dry. If you can catch it when it finishes washing, open the door for 10 seconds and then let it go through the air or heated dry cycle, you will have dry dishes.

Have had the dishwasher for about 3 weeks and happy with the product now that it is in, but had some unnecessary issues during installation. There is an adapter elbow that you need for the water line, but it doesn't come with the dishwasher. And there is no electrical plug with it to plug into the wall outlet. This would have been fine , had I known before the old unit was taken away, as I could have taken the plug off my old unit. Both of these issues wouldn't have been a problem with a little more information at the time of the sale, or during the delivery. Also, the sheet metal brackets that attach the dishwasher to the bottom of the counter where cheap and snapped in half during install. I had to make two more out of sheet metal I had lying around. Fortunately, I had the tools and know how to overcome these problems, but not everyone does. All in all though, I am happy with the unit so far.

It is very unfortunate that the re-designing into "energy efficient models" does not go in pair with the functionality. What is the point of energy saving, if the item does not function anymore as it supposed to? Not all dishes come completly clean and it is not as dry as my old "energy eating" dishwasher. At least the old one was doing great job, the new model saves the energy by doing poor job. Whirpool needs to settle somewhere in the middle.

Last dishwasher was probably 15 plus years old , this dishwasher looks better and runs quieter BUT it doesnt dry dishes well AT ALL. The ancient washer we had dried twice as good and it was an antique.
