I LOVE this dishwasher
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After the 1st one was delivered with a damaged top rack, Best Buy replaced it and the new, perfect one was installed on 12/1/2022. I know if may sound odd but, I am IN LOVE with this dishwasher. Even overloaded, it has cleaned and dried everything we've thrown at it and it runs so quietly that we keep checking to make sure it hasn't quit!!! We have a kitchen/den combination and never even need to increase the volume on the TV when this dishwasher is running. It also has a larger capacity than my old dishwasher had so we only run it every 3 or 4 days and, even with dried on food, this beauty still gets everything sparkling clean even on the light and normal wash cycles. I haven't even tried the heavy cycle!!

Love How Quiet It is!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I absolutely love this dishwasher! Mainly because it doesn’t make noise why washing, and it has a third rack specifically for mug and other small dishes. Also, the drying component is awesome, dishes come out clean, sanitized and completely dry ready to be put away in your cabinets.

Sparkly clean and bone dry!!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you’re anything like us, you’re reading every review, trying to find the pros and cons of each dishwasher. You can safely stop right now, and buy this one!!! We purchased this to replace our previous whirlpool (a more basic model) after the motor went out on it. We were skeptical with purchasing another whirlpool, but I’m so happy we did. One thing we absolutely hate is opening the dishwasher to find water pooled up on every bowl, plates still dripping wet, and plastics having to be shook out and wiped dry. That’s a thing of the past with this dishwasher. We rinse our dishes before putting them in the dishwasher (I know you’re not supposed to…), but it’s just me and my husband, and it usually takes 2-4 days for us to fully fill the dishwasher, and we don’t want it to get stinky in the meantime. We fill this baby to the brim and wash on: Sensor, high temp wash, sani rinse, and extended dry. We use a cascade pod, and cascade power dry rinse aid. Adding all of the extra steps does make the dishwasher cycle about 4.5hrs, but let me tell you, it seriously makes my entire morning when I open the dishwasher and EVERYTHING is sparkly clean and bone dry!! Not a single drop of water on ANY of our plastics, and everything is SUPER clean. If you read this review, and still keep searching, hopefully you come back and buy this one, you won’t be disappointed!!

My new updated kitchen
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This dishwasher is so quite, you barely hear when it is running. The 3rd shelf is great for large utensils. I moved the utensil basket from the side to the front for convenience. It holds more stuff then my last dish washer.

Nice and quite
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Does the job and is so quite you don’t even know it is on. The best part is the drying system because of the heat element.

Missing Handle
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The dishwasher works fine. The space inside is great. But it was delivered without the handle from Best Buy’s delivery. I also think it was installed slightly crooked, the left side sticks out more than the right. Have had terrible luck with my whirlpool appliances everything has had something wrong with it. I would recommend the product but very disappointed with Best Buy delivery and installation.

Buy THIS appliance. Look NO further
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.By far, this is the happiest we have been in replacing any appliance ever!!! The quietest and largest capacity dishwasher. Cleans the best as well. Most appliance replacements come with many downsides. Not as good quality, cheaper parts, not as durable. Buy this dishwasher and have it professionally installed. REPLACE the valves and lines at the source of the service wall is a must.

Whirlpool dishwasher
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Replaced much older whirlpool model. Much roomier, quieter with 5 cycle options. Third rack will fit small cups and bowls along with some larger utensils. Does a great job. Dishes clean and dry. Excellent machine. Happy with purchase.

Great value
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall great dish washer. Cleans the dishes well, is very quiet and I really like the third tray for bowls and large silverware. My only complaint, is that it doesn’t seem to dry as well as my old Maytag dishwasher.

Excellent Choice
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the 3rd dishwasher in 3 months. After two Samsungs that didn’t work, I paid extra to get this Whirlpool and am happy. It’s very quiet, washes and rinses well, and the 3rd rack turns out to be useful. The other dishwashers had a 3rd rack but it was a shallow flat rack good only for utensils. Whirlpool’s rack has a dip in it so that bowls and plastic containers can be washed there. Happy I bought American.

Excellent Dishwasher.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This model increases the internal volume for the 3rd rack by increasing the depth of the machine and lowering the floor. The lowered floor means the DW door when open is low to the floor. Be aware of the increased depth when installing this in an existing space. It is very quiet in operation although sometimes it sounds like it's leaking water. (just water hitting the insides)

Great cleaning & drying space efficient dishwasher
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent dishwasher with a third rack for more loads, fit large items with the easy-to-find adjusters that smoothly raise or lower the second rack, and gain extra space in the lower rack for casserole dishes and large pans by moving or separating the 3-piece silverware basket. It also cleans and drys very well.

Whirlpool Part Numbers and Install Video Link
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best Buy NEEDS TO OFFER Genuine Whirlpool Parts. I picked up this dishwasher at a not too far away (30 miles) Best Buy. I wanted this specific model due to C.R. reviews. If you choose this model, you will also need these Whirlpool Parts (not offered at Best Buy): W10278635RP (Hose Fill with 90 degree adapter) or Adapter Only W10685193; Wire Strain Relief or a new power cord W11365014 (right angle) or W11365011 (straight) that will include the strain Relief Whirlpool Part Number 4396672. Best Buy offers professional installation, but if you want the genuine Whirlpool Parts, source them elsewhere. Whirlpool has an excellent installation video at http://www.kaltura.com/tiny/ro00v After watching the 38 minute video, you may decide the install services are the way to go. I have changed out several parts on the dishwasher this new unit is replacing (12 year old Whirlpool). Last leak not completely fixed, decided for a replacement.

Outstanding Whirlpool Product!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent dishwasher. 3rd rack is very spacious and works great. Every load we have done so far has come out super clean. Highly recommended! However, the product does not come with a power cord which is frustrating, as I installed the dishwasher myself.

Quiet, but slow
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works well. Quiet. As others mention, even with the longest dry setting, plastic ware does not usually come out fully dry. Frame work that goes under cabinet is pretty cheesy. I know everything is made from plastic now but my 15 year old kitchenaid this replaced was much more solid. Also, a full clean cycle with sani rince, and long dry is almost 4.5 hours. Overall happy with it. Dishes do come out clean.
