Rated 1 out of 5 by CWest from broken Received the new dishwasher from Lowes, Hooked it up and controls lit up but does not run, had water. Took out rechecked everything, reinstalled. still will not run. The day before Thanksgiving, So we had Thanksgiving with no dishwasher. Was next week before warranty repairman could get by to look at the dishwasher. He determined that the motor was bad. The repairman could not find a part for the dishwasher, So after 2 weeks from when we ordered it we still are without a dishwasher. Ive jerked it out of the cabinet and currently dealing with Lowes about getting an exchange somehow. Several calls to the store finally have a manager trying to help us.

Rated 5 out of 5 by HappyBee from 3rd rack is AWESOME!!! We LOVE our new Dishwasher! It is very quiet! The controls at the top, out of the way, are a HUGE plus! The dishes are sparkling clean! The third rack is wonderful!!! It holds all sorts of kitchen objects such as knifes, spatulas and cooking thermometers. My husband had a double lung transplant...we really needed a dishwasher that would sanitize too! ...This dishwasher is the whole package!!! The only questionable item...even with the extended dry and using a drying agent...the inside of the dishwasher at the end of the dry cycle is wet. I worry about mold...that would be devastating to my husband's health.

Rated 1 out of 5 by John F4955 from Top basket broken after 1 year Great looking. Very quiet. After 1 month warranty was over top basket roller wheels snapped off. Only way to fix is buying a completely new basket. Cost 379$. Not very impressed with quality of dishwasher. Will try another brand on next purchase.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Lisamac4 from Roomy & Quiet I am so happy with this dishwasher. Features that were important to me were: Handle on outside, basket on door, adjustable 2nd rack, dries dishes & very quiet. I love the extra space for the plates/bowls since the utensil holder is on the door. For those of you wondering, the utensils get just as clean as if they are in a basket on the bottom rack. The adjustable 2nd rack is a great feature for the bigger dishes you want washed on the bottom rack & I have found the 3rd rack is perfect for the bigger utensils & plastic tops. The dishwasher is super quiet & I am very happy with its performance. I use Seventh Generation powder detergent.

Rated 5 out of 5 by LR9415 from Survivng the Quarantine This dishwasher is working great! It's nice and quiet and cleans the dishes well. I think its true test is how well it's surviving this quarantine! I don't think any dishwasher of mine has ever had this much of a workout!

Rated 3 out of 5 by Marabelle from Confusing to operate Our old dishwasher finally broke so I was able to purchase fingerprint proof stainless steel appliances and they all look beautiful. The dishwasher is super quiet and cleans well. However, starting it is a bit of a challenge. You need to push the start button within 4 seconds of closing or it won’t go on. We initially thought it was broken till I saw a review on YouTube. Also if you have very large handles on cutlery,it’s hard to load quickly. It doesn’t show fingerprints. This was the dishwasher that matched the other appliances I purchased. Hopefully it will last the 20 + yrs like my old Whirlpool dishwasher.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Unhappy Texan from Not what I expected Was so excited to get a new dishwasher, especially with the 3rd rack. Was extremely disappointed, however, once I started using it. First and foremost, it doesn't dry my dishes any better than the dishwasher I got rid of. I still have to dry almost everything i take out. Then...I had to remove the top tray because we tend to use large cups and even with the top rack adjusted all the way down, the cups still wouldn't fit with the top tray. Highly disappointing, especially since I basically paid extra for a useless feature. It's a typical dishwasher, but definitely nothing special.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Charlesi from Love the quiet operation. My old dishwasher (not a Whirlpool) was starting to wear out. It was noisy, tines were rusting, and after every wash I had to check pans and dishes to see if they needed more hand work to get them clean. I hated to start shopping for a new one because I figured that I still would have noise and the post wash cleaning of some items. I liked the Whirlpool design best because of space inside for large pans. After my first wash, I was so pleased at how pots and pans came out absolutely clean (no post washer scrub needed) It was great ! I also love the quietness of the washing process, and the stainless steel inside - no worry about stains.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Poochlover from Super quiet! And looks sleek, well made. I waited to review my new dishwasher until I got the chance to use it a couple of times. It is so quiet, I have to keep checking to make sure it is really on. It has the third rack on top and that is so convenient. I was worried that stuff would fall out of it or move around up there-it doesn't. It also really gets things clean-much cleaner than my other one. It does take a while to clean things, but if you do the research you will see that in 2010 the requirements for being an efficient appliance, means that it takes longer to wash dishes (I know, weird, but look it up-uses less water and energy, even though it takes longer to wash 'em).

Rated 2 out of 5 by Jochen from Nice look, but performance has been subpar We've had the dishwasher for a few months now and it cleans plates and bigger items well.Install was as easy as well. However, we have not yet figured out how to clean silverware appropriately. No matter where we put the silverware tray it never cleans all of the silverware. We end up having to hand-wash some of it after the fact. The 3rd level rack seems to do better for silverware but struggles to clean the top side of items if not positioned carefully. I think part of the problem is that the silverware container does not have enough openings to allow for water to hit all areas. Seems like a pretty significant design flaw. My prior Bosch machine performed much better.
