This dishwasher is almost silent!
I owned 3 other brands over the last 29 years and was always rinsing before loading and running the dishwasher when I was ready to leave the house for a while. After researching models, I settled on this one. The cost was comparable to other brands, but the performace was not! Firstly, no more rinsing, secondly, the configuration holds lots more dishes, and finally, the first time I ran it I kept putting my ear on the door to make sure it was working! This was the best purchase I have ever made, it is truly all it says it is.
