Customer Reviews

Rated 2 out of 5 by utnerd from Awesome features with poor build quality I love the features on this dishwasher! The motor-controlled spray arms on the bottom do an incredible job. Dishes come out clean no matter how dirty they were to begin with. The dishwasher is umatched in performance, but the build quality leaves something left to be desired. From the first run, it leaked, and not in small quantities. The leak comes from the bottom front corners and is enough to fill two standard 9x13 cake pans by the time a load is finished. We submitted a warranty claim, and are waiting for replacement parts. So far the claim process has been low hassle. We will hope for the best, because we really do love the dishwasher.

Rated 5 out of 5 by My grandchildren call me "RuRu" from Just Great This dishwasher is so quiet, I don't know it is on. It also seems to have some of those Keebler elves inside telling it the amount of dirt and scrubbing needed. Every load (light, medium, heavy) seems to come out perfectly. The cycle might take a little longer than I expected, but for the consistent cleaning results, it is worth it. Lastly, I really like how the inside is configured. I seem to find a really good spot for different shapes and sizes. And I love the silverware tray at the top. It is easy to use and, unlike when silverware is thrown into cup-size bins, fork tines and other pieces are clean.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Ursula from Excellent Appliannce After owning a previous Kitchen Aid dishwasher for almost 20 years, I was pleasantly surprised at the efficiency of my new one. The only problem I have is with the installation.They told me you had changed the design so the hoses are now mounted on the left side. Therefore, I have a large gap on the left side of the unit itself while the right side is flush against the cabinet. I am trying to figure out how to make it look central in the slot between the cabinets, but so far I can't figure out how to do it. I hired a plumber, but they told me there was nothing they could do other than tear out cabinets, which I do not want to do.

Rated 1 out of 5 by JamochaRocks from Poorest Quality Yet On my second "brand new" kitchenaid dishwasher in three weeks and have yet to get one of them to finish a cycle. The first one ran for 10 minutes, even after having most of the parts replaced. The second just overfills the unit and end the cycle full of soapy water. Extremely poor quality control. Also suggest you take a plate and glass with you. Normal size plates will not allow the top rack to be set at the lowest setting without the spray bar hitting the plates. Funny how they ask one to review performance items as part of the review. Have not been able to get that far out of the box, ON TWO UNITS.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Neil1945 from Great first impression Had it for a week and have run several loads. Cleaning and drying performance is excellent. We even used the pot scrubber mode. Noise level as reported by others is very low. Still getting use to loading it. The third rack gets in the way if you have tall glasses and plates that require the upper rack be on it's upper position. The supplemental upper rack basket takes away valuable real estate ad was quickly removed. The silverware bin with the different sized openings allows you to load it so that flatware does not nest and thereby not get cleaned.

Rated 4 out of 5 by G and S from Cleans well. We had to replace our 12-year-old KitchenAid. Only two brands would accept our custom panel, the panel ready Bosch and KitchenAid machines. We chose KitchenAid assuming that it would accept the panel more readily than the Bosch. Acceptance was not so easy however, creative installation was required. Anyway, the machine cleans the dishes quite well. The dishes only dry well if you use a drying aid. Even with a drying agent, the walls of the machine stay wet even though the dishes dry nicely. This requires us to leave the door open so the machine will dry out to avoid complications of staying Wet.

Rated 5 out of 5 by DCkitchen from best dishwasher I've ever owned We have been more than happy with this dishwasher. It is so quiet that often times when it is running guests don't even realize it's in the middle of a cycle and open the door to load it! It cleans dishes without needing to pre-wash and the drying cycle is fantastic. When using the drying agent almost all our dishes come out completely dry. We have also used the top rack only feature to wash crystal and delicate glass and it works perfectly. Would highly recommend this dishwasher and the integrated panel with top buttons is just the icing on the cake.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Lisab123 from My worst appliance decision to date I have had this dishwasher for 6 months and have lost track of how many service calls I've had on it. Not only is it frustrating to have your dishwasher stop mid cycle, but dealing with Kitchenaid has been worse. I would never reccomend this to anyone. The only good things about this dishwasher is that it is incredibly quiet.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Lori from Old panel does not fit new dishwasher !! So frustrating !! So unhappy that my current (13 year old) custom panel that matches all my custom cabinets, does not fit the new dishwasher. My old dishwasher is a kitchen aid,Why wouldn't Kitchen Aid make the same dishwasher for panels so that when we have to buy a new one the panel will fit ????? Even if I have a new panel made, the stain will have aged and not match the new stained one !!!! So I have a kitchen Aid refrigerator and trash compactor with custom panels, so now my new dishwasher has to be black as the stain would not match due to 13 year old stain on the other appliances. Why wouldn't kitchen aid be smart enough to keep the panelled appliances the same size so the same size custom panels will fit new models ??? ???????

Rated 4 out of 5 by Kess from Beautiful looking interior overall the machine is quite satisfactory. the noise level is low - as advertised. the addition of the inside light is a nice surprise the stainless steel interior is beautiful I don't feel that the bottom drawer operates as smoothly as it should not certain I like all of the features - for example, the if the top rack adjustment is on the lower setting, it seems to interfere with the spray arm hitting the dishes in the lower drawer.(I have had a broken glass after a cycle )- which now makes me reluctant to use the machine for wine glasses - maybe I have to become more familiar with the machine? I have always and only had KtichenAid dishwashers had some problems with the installation of this one hope I learn to love this model
