Absolutely love this dishwasher.
on September 26, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this dishwasher! First time having one with a third rack and I don’t know how I’ve gone this long without a third rack. It fits so many dishes and the third racks is so nice for cups, smaller dishes and bigger knifes. It’s insanely quiet, I had to check on it a couple of times to make sure it was running. Based on the stats it’s very energy efficient. It has so many different settings that you can use alone or combine with others. It dries the dishes very well, I used the extended heat dry setting and all my dishes were perfectly dry and completely spotless. Highly recommended purchasing this model and definitely going with a third rack for any model choice. The stainless steel look is so pretty and very easy to clean, got some water marks while working on the kitchen and they wiped away with no issues.

Cleans like no other

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Do you hear that? Me either. This beauty is as quiet as a library. For it being on the small side the inside of it has quite a big capacity for holding a sink full of dishes. I loved how I didn't have to do a pre rinse before I ran it, it cleaned by dishes the best I've ever seen. I could go on and on about how much I really enjoy this dishwasher. It does everything it claims and more! Everyone should own one to help make their days and life a little easier.

Super quite, Spacious, Excellent Cleaning power, Sleak Design and Easy to use.!! Could use a cycle time display.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I never thought I’d get excited about a dishwasher, but here I am! This dishwasher genuinely feels like a luxury. The first thing that stood out to me was how incredibly quiet it is. It’s so quiet that I’ve found myself checking to make sure it’s actually running. My husband, who’s a light sleeper, used to wake up every time our old dishwasher was on, so we noticed the difference immediately.
When it comes to cleaning power, I was skeptical at first, but I’m honestly amazed. It cleaned a severely burnt pot with barely any scrubbing needed on my part. I’m attaching before-and-after pictures of the pot to show just how well it worked! I don’t even bother pre-rinsing anymore—plates, pots, glasses, cutlery, and even my skincare tools all come out spotless, like they’ve been hand-washed by a meticulous little elf.
I also have to mention the adjustable racks, which move smoothly with just a simple button on the sides. I can easily shift the middle rack up or down depending on what I need to load, and this flexibility has been a game-changer for fitting in oversized mugs and awkwardly shaped pans. The racks glide in and out effortlessly, and the dishwasher feels incredibly spacious thanks to its third top rack and removable cutlery basket. I also love that the interior is stainless steel, giving it a sleek, polished look (I’ve attached pictures and a video). The exterior is fingerprint and water spot resistant, which is great for keeping it looking clean. The buttons are soft, sensitive to touch, and respond instantly.
The only thing I’d change is the lack of a display showing the remaining time for the cycle to finish. A small screen for that would be really useful. But aside from that minor issue, everything about this dishwasher is absolutely perfect!

Great dishwasher with amazing features
on September 30, 2024
Posted by: sherrib2014
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This dishwasher is designed to be energy efficient and operates with minimal noise. It has a substantial capacity for dishes and effectively cleans them. I was unaware that KitchenAid produced dishwashers, but this model features an elegant design. However, the top rack can be somewhat challenging to insert due to its contact with the upper spray arm.

Absolutely love it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best dishwasher I’ve ever had. The stainless steel interior looks fantastic! Everything comes out sparkling clean every time. It’s ridiculously quiet! My skittish cats don’t even notice it when it runs. I absolutely love having a third rack and adjustable middle rack. Both have really come in handy. My previous dishwashers don’t even compare to this one.

Nearly perfect machine
on September 30, 2024
Posted by: jessicat334
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] While this dishwasher is gorgeously designed, quiet, efficient, and has plenty of storage, it does come with two negatives that have knocked it down from five stars to four stars. First, the buttons and timer are on the top of the machine and is, for the most part, completely hidden from view by the countertop. This also makes it difficult to press the buttons while it is shut. The second issue is that it takes an incredibly long time to do a wash. I’ve tried comparable loads at the different levels of cleaning, and the pro wash is the best. That being said, it takes almost four hours to get it completely done, which is a very long time to me, but eh, it does the job. All of this to say, it is an excellent machine , and I am nitpicking because five stars would be given to the perfect dishwasher, and this is only near perfect. Definitely look into it if you are in the market for a new, snazzy, all the bells and whistle machines on the market. The corrugated metal handle was such a fancy and nice touch!

This dishwasher is a queen!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This dishwasher is top notch. I love the third jet rack so much. It allows for more fitting in of the dishes that need to be washed and gets them clean quicker than ever. This machine is so quiet. You barely know it's running. I love the energy efficiency and the quality hands down. Best dishwasher I've ever had. The style is so beautiful, I love the color and the button display.

Stylish design and extra space
on October 2, 2024
Posted by: ready2play
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I want to start by saying this dishwasher itself is amazing! I love the extra drawer that helps keep the smaller items contained. It's amazing that they were able to provide this extra space with the same general size format of a standard dishwasher. The design is sleek, and i really like the stylized handle. The red sides on the handle weren't my favorite as they didn't match my kitchen, but Kitchenaid made the inserts very easy to remove for the purpose of paint-matching your kitchen. The controls are pretty easy to operate, albeit very sensitive (you can accidentally hit one after making your selection). The unit comes with a fair amount of sound dampening insulation so it helps tremendously with noise levels.
Most of the things that i think could stand improvement relate to the installation itself. The only thing with the dishwasher i think could use is more secure insulation. The way it is loosely covering it makes it conducive to bunching up when being installed in the tight space usually alloted for a dishwasher. When it came to the installation, the unit was delivered on time and with ease. However, the installers refused to utilize my air gap that was installed, choosing to bypass it instead because they didn't have the correct clamp. I even offered one of my own as i keep these type things on hand in my garage, yet they still refused. This led to me having to uninstall and reinstall the drain lines myself to make sure this necessary feature was installed (an air gap ensures there is no backup from a garbage disposal into a dishwasher's drain lines). Fortunately I have the experience to do this on my own. Next, they failed to use the hole drilled through the inner cabinet wall to route my water line, and instead ran it through a cutout for my sink. This led to the water line being stressed and squished between the dishwasher and cabinet instead of laying nicely behind the unit like it should. The buttons/controls for the machine are on the top of the door instead of the front. Nice clean concept, except the installers set the height at the highest level. This placed the controls 1/8 inch away from the countertop making seeing and using the controls impossible. This led to me having to pull the entire unit out to set the legs to proper height. The final mishap of the installers came from their trial run to make sure it all worked. Well, they left the paper tags inside the dishwasher. It took over an hour removing all of the filter screens and flushing the drain lines to remove clumps of wet paper.
All in all, the dishwasher is great. It works fantastically, it looks great in the kitchen i am currently remodeling, and the extra drawer is a fantastic upgrade. The installers could use more training, though.
