It works well. The dishes are clean and it is quiet. Sometimes it seems to cycle longer than it should, but the result is always clean dishes. We eat a lot of peanut butter!

We love how much space our dishwasher has! Love the silverware on the door vs being in the basket inside! We got so much in and does clean very well. It cleans extremely well only downfall is I leave it on the heat dry and still has water on dishes 50% of the time. It does take about 2 hours with normal wash and heat dry but they do come out spot less!

I have to say I was really let down by the Whirlpool Gold Built in Dishwasher. I bought mine a little over a year ago and I was thrilled with it. I noticed right away that it was so quiet and got my dishes sparkling. Then out of nowhere it started leaking. It was so gross to wash dishes in this particular dishwasher that I decided it would be better to hand wash all of my dishes. Not only was it leaking a lot of water, but with time it slowly developed this brown sticky film that was difficult to clean and disgusting. I did have it replaced since it was under warranty but I fear this new one will start leaking again. I am not sure I would recommend this particular dishwasher. It wasn't really a cheap dishwasher so you can imagine my disappointment when it didn't live up to expectations.

I so glad that I finally broke down and bought a dish washer. This is the best one I have ever seen and it's so much better than washing dishes yourself. I have had amazing results with this dish washer. Having hard water makes it hard to get the dishes, and glasses spot free is a big hassle when washing by hand. I have had compliments on my dishes after washing them with this dish washer about how clean and spotless they appeared to everyone. I love that I can just set the dishes in the rack, turn it on and let it go while it takes care of the messy part. I also like the fact that it has a steam cycle to go the extra mile in making your dishes cleaner. It is also very quiet when it runs, even during the cycles that you would think would be loud. It also washes dishes very fast it takes at least 20 minutes for one cycle and it is very energy efficient. You can also change the racks if you have bigger or smaller things to wash. Overall I would recommend this to anyone who wants a nice machine that will last a long time.

I really like the look and it is quiet. I don't like the fact that you can easily open the dishwasher while it is cleaning the dishes and the hot steam and hot water puff out at you. Also the handle comes loose easily. Finally, while it is cleaning the dishes hot steam comes out of the top of the dishwasher. I have a 2 year old so these are a big deal to me and it has no safety and doesn't have anything I can buy to make it safer. Its cute though.. Noise Level You can hear it but it doesn't keep me up at night. Cleaning Time This cleans quickly and at a normal speed Loading Flexibility This has many options to change the racks and it fits large items and small items. I do wish you could change how high or low the racks can go. Performance My dishes come out clean. Design I really like the way this looks with the hidden buttons. Durability I have not had it for that long, only 6 month, and the handle is already loose.

Good dishwasher for the right price. I currently have a leak through the door, working with whirl pool to resolve the issue, love the hidden controls, we have little ones who love to push buttons. I love the solid food filter, especially great for septic systems. I like the silverware tray, good shelf space.

When it was time to replace the old dishwasher at our winter house my wife and I looked for a dishwasher that could get the job done but also didn't cost an arm and a leg, and we found it. This Whirlpool dishwasher does a fantastic job of getting the dishes clean for a surprisingly low price. Our previous dishwasher seemed to just heat water and rise some of the dishes, leaving many dirty and in need for 2 or 3 washes. With this one, dishes do not need to be thoroughly washed before putting them into the dishwasher. Even relatively dirty dishes come out clean and I like that. Overall, I enjoy this dishwasher for its cleaning power and affordability. The only thing I find a bit strange is the placement of the buttons. I'm used to having the buttons in the front and not on top, but once you're used to it it's no big deal. Noise Level It's a pretty quite dishwasher. Performance Great, especially for the price. Design The button placement on the top is sort of a nuisance, I prefer them on the front.

This is a great dishwasher. We love the amount of space available for dishes. There is plenty of room on the top rack. You can put larger bowls/storage containers on the top and they don't run into the top of the machine. There are enough customizable portions on the top rack to hold your wine glasses and small lids. The bottom is deep enough to hold large cutting boards and large pots and pans. There is plenty of room left over for everyday dishes. We have no problem fitting all our daily dishes plus all our cooking utensils - which helps keep our kitchen clean every day. The silverware holder on the door is a major space saver! The machine is quiet and does a great job washing. We do use a dishwasher cleaner bi-monthy which seems to help keep the inside looking nice and we've never had a problem with odors. Noise Level Very quiet. We have an open dining/kitchen/living room and running the dishwasher doesn't affect the noise level in the great room. Cleaning Time Seems to run quickly on normal. Performance Does a great job cleaning dishes! Design The vent is on the top (as with most models) and tends to heat our granite counters up above the unit. The cat loves this and tends to get in the way since he'll sleep there while the machine is running.

Love this dishwasher! Having the ability to move the silverware holder to the door thus freeing up more bottom rack space is a HUGE plus for me! Noise Level Very, very quite. Cleaning Time Need a quick wash? Longer? Set it for overnight for greater electrical grid savings...this machine can do it all. Loading Flexibility Tons of room for even my tallest pots and pans Performance Dishes are clean and glasses sparkle! Design Love the stainless look - easy to clean (inside AND out)! Durability My last Whirlpool dishwasher lasted 18 years. I expect the same for this one!

I am happy to have this dishwasher. It works well and it looks good too. We recently purchased this dishwasher because our old one broke. This dishwasher was priced well, and appeared to be a good machine so we purchased it. We have been really pleased with this dishwasher. We are pleased with our purchase. It works so much better than our old one, and has make a big difference. The bottom rack is a little lower to the ground, but it is worth it because of the extended capacity and increased washing ability. Noise Level The noise level isn't intrusive in any way. There is a bit of a hum and it is obvious when the machine is changing cycles, but the noise isn't overbearing in any way. Cleaning Time I'm not disappointed with the cleaning time. I think the cleaning time is fine. I'm happy with the amount of cycle choices. Loading Flexibility I like the different ways things can be configured in the dishwasher. I like that the silverware holder can be moved to the door, or inside the dishwasher. Performance I think it gets my dishes really clean and sanitary. Design I love the sleek look to the dishwasher. Durability Our last dishwasher lasted for 20 years, and we are hoping this one does the same. So far it seems like a quality product!
