(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Generally very happy with it. Very efficient easy to operate and install The dish rack is not as good as the dish rack in our 15 year old Kitchenaid dishwasher
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It does what it's supposed to do - clean the dishes! However, I don't like the upper rack loading options.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I did not realize this was designed for people with ambulatory issues, so it is closer to the ground. As someone with back problems but who is not in a wheelchair, reaching lower to load and unload can be difficult, so the fact that it is lower to the ground then most machines would have been nice to know. I do like the 3rd rack, but it does take some space. Even with the top rack in the upper position, I no longer have room for some items that previously fit on the bottom, which I now have to wash be hand. If I had to choose again, I might not choose something with the 3rd rack. Otherwise it has been great, and I love the salt to help prevent the calcium and hard water buildup.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Racks are obviously designed by someone who never uses a dishwasher. The short little tines don't hold anything vertically, bowls tip over and bang against the other dishes. Lucky if you can get a plate to stand up. Dishwasher is quiet which is nice. It does get the dishes clean. Open door dry is more like open door soaking wet. Extended dry works. Every inch of this dishwasher shows signs of design that saves Whirlpool money in the manufacturing. Skimped wherever they could. Profit before product is what I see. Funny how you get an email 2 days after you receive the product and they want your review immediately. Well here it is, after 10 days. Only time will tell how long this thing will last. A little disappointed.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have owned previous Whirlpool appliances so I was excited to receive a dishwasher . I love the sensory settings that lets me know how soiled the dishes are and the extra storage racks for smaller forks and spoons .
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed an ADA dishwasher, and this one was available. I don't like the automatic dryer open feature. Things don't get dry when the door opens automatically. I would have preferred to see all the options listed on the front of the door itself, rather than having to select options and shutting the door to start the machine. It's irritating to have to bend down and look inside to see how much time is left for the wash cycle.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Whirlpool dishwasher is a huge upgrade from my 15+ year old dishwasher it replaced. It is extremely quiet even from standing right next to it. It takes longer to run a cycle but is much more efficient in the process. The inside design is the only thing that kept it from 5 stars. Don't get me wrong, it will hold a lot of dishes, but the layout leaves something to be desired. There doesn't seem to be adequate space for cups and glasses on the second rack. It should be all flat, but there is a raised section that is tough to work with. The top utensil drawer is great for large, flat items like spatulas. It also has a door open feature that is great for drying and energy saving but works best with a solid surface coutertop. Mine is formica, and the hot steam made the underside particle board swell, so the feature was turned off. I did install this myself, and it was a project for someone who's never done one before. All in all, I am happy with this dishwasher and its features. I hope it lasts for years to come.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The dishwasher works well. I like the controls and it is much quieter than our old one. However, I am not thrilled with the way the dishes go in the dishwasher. I think this may be just an issue of getting used to the differences from the old dishwasher. Also, I am compelled to comment on the instructions. Both the installation instructions and the user/owner instructions are very poorly done.
