Cleans Well
Product cleans well and the window is cool. The middle drawer is adjustable making it easier to fit items. The bottom rack has an offset, Im not fond of the offset. Silverware drawer has nubs so you can stand the items sideways, but they always fall over. The dishwasher has a light so you can see in through the window, but you have no control over the light and it only comes on when you first close the door and goes right out. The point of the window in my eyes would be to be able to watch the dishes cleaning. When the light goes out you cant see anything through the window. Over all cleaning above average.

Great dishwasher but with a fatal design flaw
I can tell many of the glowing reviews on this dishwasher were written shortly after receiving it and after only a few uses. Cleaning is very, very good, and it's so quiet you can barely hear it in a silent room. If there is any normal conversation or a TV on you'd never know it was running. When new, you'll love the thing.
But here's the fatal flaw that is unlike any dishwasher I've owned the past 30+ years: the shelves use a 3-tier stacked rail system (the "SatinGlide" in the descriptions) that, when closed (the shelves are pushed into the dishwasher for operation) nest so closely that water and/or cleaner cannot penetrate between the rails. Add to this that the rails are in a nice, warm and humid environment and it does not take much to put two and two together in what this produces: after a few months you have inside surfaces of the rails (that can only be seen when the shelves are slid out) that are literally crawling with mold, fungus, and all kind of nasties (see photos). This machine was installed less than four months ago.
Before anyone draws conclusions about my maintenance habits I should note I always, always maintain everything I own above any manufacturer's recommendations. Past dishwashers I typically ran a cleaning cycle (empty and with a cleaning product, or citric acid, or vinegar) one or two times per month. On this machine I've upped it to one or two times per week, but it makes no difference because (as I noted above) the water cannot penetrate between the 3-layer nested rails - even with the machine totally empty. If anything, it comes out looking even more gross after running such a clean cycle.
At this point I've taken to manually disassembling the dishwasher and putting the gross parts into a tub of hot water and disinfectant and manually cleaning everything with an old toothbrush. This takes half a day and it is absurd that I need to do this on one of the most expensive dishwashers on the market.
P.S. I've sent these photos and complaints to WP customer care, but to date they have not offered an acceptable response.

Wonderful idea, poor execution
My feedback is based on this model only. KitchenAid dishwashers are functionally the best around. Quiet and dependable. I built a new home and decided to indulge myself with a dishwasher with a window. Who wouldn't want to see the mysterious cleaning process, especially the kids. It would be like a 2 hour babysitters. Well, I'm sad to report the light doesn't stay on during the wash cycle. Even though it's an efficient LED light, some engineer decided to only have it go on AFTER the cycle is complete. Totally stupid. Everyone that comes over talks about the window and wants to see the inside while it's washing. Flashlights are the only way. Bottom line, great idea, horrible, not think customer execution. Save your money and pass on this model. Sorry KitchenAid - you failed on a great idea!!

Love It
Love this dishwasher, I don't know why I waited so long to purchase a new one. This dishwasher cleans efficiently. THe light feature is cute but I barely get to admire it because it automatically comes on after the wash is done and automatically shuts off. There are a number of colors that appear on the door throughout the wash cycle however I was not completely sure what each color meant. Blue is for washing, red I assume is for drying and white I understand now that the wash cycle is done. Overall an excellent addition to our kitchen

Solid with excellent cleaning power
I have just upgraded to this dishwasher from a Kenmore Elite model I've had for about 10 years. This Kitchenaid model is miles above what I had always thought was a pretty good dishwasher. It is solidly made, impressive looking, and due to some pretty innovative internal action, cleans my dishes without leaving residue or spots. I thought my old dishwasher was quiet, but this is so quiet, I've had to have a talk with my family about looking for the indicator light before opening it. They have interrupted my washing cycle several times because they just didn't hear a sound or feel any vibration. This feels solid, looks amazing and cleans great. What more could a girl ask for? This is the dishwasher of my dreams.

Very quiet operation
Looks nice with the window and operates very quietly. Needs a button to turn on interior light vs only when door is open. Why have a window if you can not see in it. Silverware basket takes up A LOT of room vs previous basket in door model.

Amazingly effective
I bought my dishwasher a few weeks ago. Aside from the great appearance of the unit, it is amazingly quiet and I have never had such clean dishes from a dishwasher. I am so happy!

Great Features!
We started a kitchen remodel back in February and purchased our Kitchen Aid appliances in May (DW, Frig, Oven/Micro Combo, Induction Cooktop). Appliances were finally installed in September. I was hesitant regarding color selection, but settled with the Black Stainless and am very happy. Very classy. We replaced our 1994 GE Profile appliances which had held up well, but were not crazy about newer models or colors.

Our dishes get amazingly clean, and we love the light and the handlebar. The capacity is great too! It's also very quiet.
