Rated 1 out of 5 by Zdad from Looks great, Works horribly Never have I been so dissatisfied. I bought it from Lowe’s brought it home and installed. Since the first load I’ve used Rinse aid, yet I have ALWAYS had standing water in the machine. If you do a load of dishes and leave them in over night they will mold. It has been 1 year & 1 month (just long enough for factory warranty to be out) and now the sump pump motor and and assembly needs to be replaced($350)... how convenient on timing... I’m never buying this model again. I just purchased a Maytag which comes with a 2 year manufacturers warranty. Hopefully they’ll since they stand by their product longer it will last longer.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Anonymous from Can’t Clean Glasses! I bought this unit a couple years ago for my first house and then moved for a year. I moved back and remembered that this thing had never been able to clean my glasses, leaving a nasty looking film on them, no matter what detergent I use. I even ran every cycle as a test to justify replacement. I got a new job that got me 50% off of a $1,500 Bosch dishwasher, so I’m replacing this one. Super, super disappointed. After all of the research, Whirlpool was supposed to be one of the top. My Whirlpool oven can’t even self clean. One day I’ll have a full Bosch kitchen. No more American made garbage. I should’ve known, it’s just like cars.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Jumoke from Defective, Defective, Defective I had this delivered a week ago and it nearly flooded my basement. I bought it online through Home Depot's site, and originally thought the installation is what made it leak through my wood floors to my basement. But after the technicians came back to my house yesterday, they found out the machine was defective and took pictures of the broken parts.. Now I have welped wood floors, and sagging paint on my basement ceiling -- in my newly renovated house that I just bought 2 years ago!!.. I was told that someone will come out to replace the dishwasher and repair my basement ceiling and floors.. We'll see..

Rated 1 out of 5 by Monsieur Kirby from Caused stainless steel flatware to rust This dishwasher has a tray on the door for utensils. It's a cool feature, because it provides more room for dishes. However, I quickly noticed that all my utensils doesn't wash completely clean when placed in this tray. With heated dry, they also don't dry completely. In fact, I'm noticing rust on my stainless steel flatware because they just aren't being dried properly. It's bad enough that a dishwasher fails to properly clean dishes and utensils, but it's even worse, now that it's ruining my flatware. This isn't my first Whirlpool appliance that's provided me underwhelming performance, but it might just be the worst so far.

Rated 1 out of 5 by tbujko from Disappointing is an understatement Don't waste your money buying this dishwasher. I bought it and less than a year later it sits in my kitchen useless as I am handwashing my dishes. It won't complete the wash cycle, won't wash the dishes, won't dissolve the detergent pod. I regret buying this dishwasher every single day. There is nothing about this product that is worth spending a penny on. I now use mine to store dishes that I don't use as often as others. So if you are looking for something that will be functional for more than a year for the intended purpose of washing dishes look at a different product because this dishwasher will leave you with dishpan hands and regret.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Mrs. Moose from Finally, CLEAN dishes This is seriously the best dishwasher I have ever owned. I am surprised every time I open the door. I can't thank my husband enough for buying this for me. Before I got this dishwasher I would have to literally scrub every piece of food off of each dish that I would put in to my old one. Then I would have to scrub off sediment when they came out and polish so many spots off of all of the dishes. With this new Whirlpool dishwasher, I don't have to do a thing. I could put caked on dishes right in and when they come out they are sparkling clean. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you! Now that I'm not continually scrubbing dishes, I actually have time to cook.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Soccercop19 from Terrible Product We bought this dishwasher on December 22, 2017 from Lowe’s. The dishwasher worked good up until December 26, 2019 when it stopped washing the dishes. It would come on, but the spray arms didn’t shoot any water out of them. We spent $70 to have a repair man come out to see what the issue was. The issue is the circuit board for the pump went out. The repair man called to get a new part only to be told that Whirlpool discontinued that part. Now I have a dishwasher that I am going to have to completely replace. I work hard for my money and when I buy something, it should last more than two years. I will not buy another a Whirlpool product.
