- Features
- Hard Food Disposer: false (This feature has blades to chop and disintegrate hard food particles, making them small enough to easily drain away. This prevents them from being recirculated back onto dishware and allows for easy maintenance.)
- Drying Method: Heated drying (Appliances that use heat to dry the dishes will include a heating element or minerals which transform moisture into heat. A fan or vent then circulates the hot dry air throughout the tub during the drying cycle. This may reduce drying time and the risk of water spots. Appliances that use minerals to produce heat are considered more energy efficient than those that include a heating element. Appliances that use condensation drying are considered more energy efficient than those that use heated drying. Instead, high temperature water is produced during the final rinse cycle which warms the interior and eventually condensates and drains out of the machine.)
- Operating Sound Level: 55 decibels adjusted (Today's appliances are pretty quiet. To get a sense for how quiet you'll need, think about having a conversation in the same room.

A: The tub is not stainless
A: In the directs there is a drain button or option. If that doesnt work and you have a garbage disposal, there might be a plug or value that would need tk be removed for the dishwasher to properly drain. We had a similar issue and it was the garbage disposal plug that prevented the dishwasher from draining.
Q: Specs that are advertised show that this model has a child lock. Can't find any lock?
A: I don't believe mine has a lock.
A: It’s related to decibels (dB), which measures noise level. According to the government of Quebec, Canada, “Noise level is measured in decibels (dB). The louder the noise, the higher the decibels. Decibels can be adjusted to human hearing. Noise level is thus described in decibels A (dBA). The effects of noise vary with the noise to which a person is exposed. Prolonged exposure to loud noises (75 dBA over eight hours a day for years) can lead to hearing loss. The body can also respond to lower noise levels: sleep can be disturbed by an outdoor noise of 40 dBA.”
Q: What is the minimum clearance height for installment?
A: Hello, please see the link to the Owner's Manual for more information on the proper dimensions needed for installation. https://shorturl.at/Mg4oz Measured from the lowest point on the underside of the countertop. May be reduced to 331/2" (851 mm) by removing the wheels and perforated area of insulation (blanket) on dishwasher. Thank you for your inquiry on our Whirlpool appliances.
A: Hello! We are sorry to hear about your concern. We would recommend contacting Whirlpool® at 800-253-1301. We are available M -F 8 am to 6 pm EST. They will be better able to assist you.
Q: When can dishwasher be installed and cost
A: As soon as you get it in the house. I did it myself, wasn't difficult.
A: My dishwasher is very new and so far works very well and has no complaints until now...

I like this dishwasher. It’s quiet and doesn’t take very long to go through a cycle. The dishes come out sparkling. It was very reasonably priced also.
