[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Considering the price paid for my new dishwasher, I am so delighted, because it works far better than the very expensive one it replaced, for which I am appreciative and wish to thank you very much.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this dishwasher recently to replace an older one that had rusty baskets. So far I'm pleased. It installed with no problems once I figured out the correct supply hose fittings. The baskets are laid out well and I have no problems loading. It only uses 3 gallons of water with the standard wash. I use less detergent than I did with the old dishwasher. It cleans well even though I typically don't use the heater for the wash water or for drying. I leave the door unlatched in between use to let the interior dry out. I seems well made and I like that it is made in the USA. Almost forgot to mention it is much quieter. So far, so good.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nice size dishwasher easy to install. Runs quiet and has a 4 hour delay start feature. Easy to use and access control panel with nice wash selections.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our old dishwasher broke and we were looking for something reasonably priced and simple. This is a great little dishwasher and does the Job we need.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so happy with my new dishwasher. It is very spacious inside for the dishes to get clean. It has all the features I looked for but not overwhelmed with many controls. Simple to operate. Quiet to run and looks elegant in my kitchen. Dishes and glasses come out sparkling.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We select the heated dry function and every morning when I come back in the office and empty the cleaned dishes, they are soaking wet:(
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Dear Admin: Thank you for taking the time to write regarding your dishwasher. Feedback from our customers is an important source of information. We regret that you are not totally satisfied with your dishwasher. We manufacture several different models with various feature and accessory designs while trying to provide appliances that are versatile in meeting the needs of our customers and adhering to increasing governmental restrictions. Current dishwasher heating cycles have been cut short due to standards set by the Department of Energy. To overcome this, we recommend using rinse aid to help sheet off extra water. First, fill the compartment will rinse aid until full. Next, turn the dial under the rinse aid cap from 2 (the factory preset) to 5 or 6. This will allow the rinse aid to cover the dishes and form to the inside cabinet. Turn it back down after a few loads, and you will notice a big difference the amount of water in the unit and on the dishes. If you have other concerns we can help with any service needs you may have. You can contact us at Amana_Digital@Amana.com with the full model and serial number of the dishwasher, your address, your User ID (Admin), your Review ID (93638030), and date of purchase. Thank you. Thank you
