Never owned a Whirlpool dishwasher before. Very happy with this dishwasher, it holds way more dishes than my last dishwasher so I am running less loads, saving water. It is so quiet I can hardly hear it when it runs. Dishes come out clean. Would definitely recommend this dishwasher to family and friends.
The dishwasher is very quiet. The dishes are clean. They are also wet. Even in the instructions for use, a drying agent is strongly recommended. I have tilted cups. I removed the silverware container from the door because when I open the door water runs over the semi-dry silverware. When I open the dishwasher after the wash/dry cycles are complete, there are puddles of water on the door and on the bottom of the machine. I would open the dishwasher and shake the dishes around at the beginning of the drying cycle if I could, but there is no LED signal for the dry cycle so I am never sure when the washing is over. Our 16 year old dishwasher, which we replaced with this one, did a better job of drying the dishes, No one in my house wants to empty the dishwasher because it takes 20 minutes to dry everything. Do NOT purchase this machine!
