Excellent Heavily Used Dishwasher
We have 3 children (one being a toddler and infant twins) and we use this dishwasher several times a day with bottles, sippy cups, and normal household dishes. This dishwasher cleans very well, a lot better than our old one, and holds a lot more dishes than our old one. We looked at and researched a lot of dishwashers before selecting this one. The guy at lowes suggested this one after we discussed our children's ages and usage requirements. We have had this diswaher for several months now and still love it. I bought this diswasher and the $20 kit, and I was washing dishes in less than two hours. Intall was quick and easy.

Disappointed
I bought this about a month ago. I was very excited to have a Whirlpool as I have had such good luck with the brand in the past. I am disappointed with my new dishwasher. It will not dry my dishes unless I open the door as soon as the cycle finishes. My house is very humid to start with and this adds to the humidity problem. Cannot leave the silverware rack in the door....have to dry them because the water runs down the door and keeps them wet. Doesn't hold as many dishes as my old cheap one because it won't clean unless there is only one layer of dirty dishes. You also HAVE to use Jet Dry! The positive thing is that it is quiet!

Great price Great Dishwasher
I bought this dishwasher a few weeks ago. I host large family/friends meals and was tired of a couple of us always spending our visiting time doing the dishes.Although we would have great dish washing conversations the years of hosting, cooking most of the meal and then doing the dishes was getting to be too much of a chore. I love my dishwasher. Even having to do two loads is acceptable. The price was reasonable. It cleans very well. I have tried all but the sani cycle. It uses very little water.It was so wonderful to have "Whirly" do the dishes so everyone was able to relax after supper. I am looking forward to more family and friend get togethers.

Outstanding dishwasher, great value
We bought the Whirlpool dishwasher to replace an older dishwasher. After looking at just about every dishwasher made, and all the different features as well as prices, we found that the Whirlpool had many of the features found only in higher priced machines. Since installed, we just love it! Not only is it full of great features, but it so much quieter (even though model we chose did not have the lowest noise rating) than our old dishwasher. And the racks are so roomy, and convenient. And so far, we've found this Whirlpool cleans even the heaviest of cleaning jobs with ease. A great product, and even made in the USA! Keep it up Whirlpool!

Very satisfied with our new dishwasher
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) We've been using our new dishwasher for a few weeks now and are very impressed with it. It is nice looking and quiet. If we use a rinsing liquid, the dishes come out extremely clean and dry. I haven't seen my wine glasses look so spotless. KEep in mind though, that you have to use a rinsing liquid to get this effect (and this is consistent with the manufacturer's instructions). If you don't, the dishes can come out very wet.
Also, the cutlery rack is a bit awkward for us because half the slots are too small for our cutlery to fit in. We can lift up the covers though to solve that issue.

Excellent dishwasher
My wife and I are please with this dishwasher. I have very good hearing and I can tell you this dishwasher is very quiet. Cleans dishes and silverware with no problems. With the silverware tray in the front it saves space compared to other dishwashers. I look at other dishwasher's in the store and found this had the most room and it really was the best bang for the dollar in my view. Some other dishwashers have less decibels a couple of more cycles and to me it was not worth it. Yo0u can buy a more expensive dishwasher but tome you would be throwing your money away.

Super Quiet - shh don't wake the baby!
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) I purchased one for my house after purchasing and installing the exact same model of Whirlpool dishwasher in our church kitchen 2 weeks earlier. Our old 23 year old model was still cleaning the dishes but the white Corelle-type cups on the top rack were coming out with what looked like tea stains on the inside only. I decided to take these cups to the church dishwasher and use our same detergent. The dishwasher was amazingly super quiet and in one wash all of the staining was gone. We have had ours only for one week and used it for 2 loads and everything is impressive! So happy with this purchase:)

TERRIBLE!
Dishes come out dirty with grime stuck on them. I have tried different brands of detergents, used jet dry, cleaned the trap, ran an empty washer and still have the problem. My d/washer is mostly cups and glasses (with water-no cokes or milks), we use paper plates and heat food on paper plates. This dishwasher does not get microwaved and baked on foods--it gets easy stuff. This was not purchased as a 'luxury', it's a necessity: I have eczema so hand washing is not really an option. I've had dishwashers that conquered mac-n-cheese pans, this on can't even clean a water glass. this is my 4th dishwasher in 30 years-worst ever!
