arms do not spin

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have been using for a year, do not like to give bad reviews but I finally am going to say this dishwasher is really bad. It's quiet;maybe because the arms don't spin? I have to wash my dishes before I wash my dishes... very disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This dishwasher is super quiet and does an excellent job. It is so quiet, I have sometimes gone to check if it is actually running! I really like the silverware rack, which has slots for each piece, so I don't have to worry about pieces nesting if someone else (i.e., husband) loads dishwasher. The third rack is especially useful when dishwasher is full; the additional space is welcome! I also use the stemware pulldowns regularly and have adjusted the top rack occasionally. It is also thrifty with water.
Only downside: cycle length. It takes a LONG time to finish a cycle! However, I happily put up with that for all the positives!

Works well, but we purchased it only one month ago.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The best review of any appliance is after at least one year's usage. Generally speaking, most appliances will work fairly well during the manufacturer's one year warranty period. Any time thereafter, expectations are highly questionable, irrespective of the original purchase price of the appliance. New buyers should seriously consider purchasing an extended warranty agreement on these types of purchases because most new technology today is surely to break down more frequently after the warranty period and/or require replacement more quickly!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Silent, efficient, I could not live without it. However I should give it 4.5 stars. The top drawer rail is a bit flimsy. The system has little metal balls that went all over the place when got "broken" and as a consequence the drawer does not open completely anymore unless forced. Other than that, it works great.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this dishwasher. It's sooooo quiet, has plenty of options and I no longer need to "pre-wash" my dishes. Having 3 racks with one totally dedicated to silverware is great. The only drawback is that with that top rack, you give up some height for your 2nd rack. The 2nd rack is adjustable but then you give up room for the bottom rack and then my plates won't fit. I have several large Tervis tumblers and smoothie cups that are too tall to fit on the 2nd rack so I have to put them on the bottom rack--so far no melted cups. Overall this is the best dishwasher for the money.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I did my research and I am very pleased with this dishwasher. I have tried most cycles and have been very impressed with how clean my dishes come out. I have tried really dirty dishes and not so dirty dishes and they all come out clean. Dishwasher is very quiet. My only problem is I can't figure out how the upper silverware tray works so I took it out.
I have only been using dishwasher for about a month but I am very happy with it. Hands down better than my last one that never got anything clean.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have had this dishwasher for over a month. It cleans very well and is very quiet. You have to carefully listen to find out if the dishwasher is actually running. The food filter seems to be a better design than disposer type dishwashers (like our previous old one). That helps keep the dishwasher clean and not soil the dishes during the wash. So far we are very satisfied.
