This dishwasher does what it is supposed to do - washes my dishes. It was in the lower price range so I am not sure what people are spending so much $$ for with the higher priced washers. It is quiet too although my old one made a horrible racket in the end so I may not be a good judge on this aspect. I liked buying it from a small family company as well.

Whirlpool poducts have been above average for many years in performance and reliability , and i have owned their equipment for over 35 years and this dishwasher is an exceptional value..

This dishwasher came with my house and was new when I moved in 4 years ago. I have already had to have someone come out to fix it. I only run it about twice a week, so this was disappointing. It is now broken again. I think I will replace it instead of fixing it this time.

I also do not like the knob to turn it on. You have to twist it past several other cycles to get it to the "normal" cycle and it clicks on and off while you do this. It's a little challenge to stop it at "normal" and not twist past. Buttons would be much better.

I just got this dishwasher--brand new and it is terrible. Dishes come out as dirty as they went in or with new dirty spots or stains. I prewash my dishes anyway but might as well skip the dishwasher process; I could do a better job by hand but then what's the point of having a dishwasher. I have to handwash almost all of the silverware after they are run through a cycle and it is incredibly loud. I have literally tried every setting and even have tried washing dishes through multiple cycles with no improvement in performance. Water goblets don't fit on the top rack and pots and pans don't fit on the top rack either. I can't imagine a worse product.
