Stainless finish

I was told by installer that the stainless was easy to clean , but it isn't. The handle is but not the front panel. What is a cleaner that would clean this particular model very well. Thanks

I bought this dishwasher about a month ago. So far it has been a great purchase. Everything that I have put in this dishwasher has come out clean the first time with little to no pre washing. I would definitely recommend this dishwasher.

Lower wash arm does not stay engaged
Chowhound
7/28/2019
The engineering of the attachment for the lower wash arm (#1 listed feature above) is so deficient that this highly touted system doesn't stay attached on the base. We have had this unit for a year, have had the vendor's device tech out twice, including replacement of the lower spray assembly, and still, frequently, the lower spray assembly disengages from the base and makes a loud thumping noise. Stop the cycle, re-engage the first assembly, cross fingers and restart the cycle. It is a perennial annoyance that we're stuck with, but you don't have to be. Get your dishwasher from a different manufacturer. KitchenAid engineering is objectively deficient. Who knows what other parts in this and other KA dishwasher models were inadequately engineered?

We bought this dishwasher about a month and half ago. We are so pleased by the way it looks and how clean our dishes are. I like all the optional features. I can get my jam jars ready in a jiffy now. My only complaint is that some dishes come out wet and that's even after using the "pro heat" option. (hence the 4 stars) Overall we are very happy with this dishwasher.

This is my 3 KitchenAid dishwasher and they keep getting better! Really am enjoying the very top shelf very good for plastic lids and silverware if needed. It is very quiet and so far so good. Hoping to enjoy it for many years to come.

I changed my dishwasher because my old dishwasher which was 10 year old but worked fine. I got this dishwasher not even two weeks ago.. everyday I find soap on the door or on the lower tray or the dishes. I am very frustrated as I have little kids at home and this is not even safe for them to eat out of those dishes.

This is my second KitchenAid dishwasher and I am quite happy with its cleaning performance. That said, the pull out tray does limit the space/height on the top shelf and overall the layout does not have the same load capacity as my previous KitchenAid, which was very efficient. Perhaps I will get better at efficient loading and overall for our small family this is not a deterrent.

We started with a different dishwasher - highly rated - to replace an older KitchenAid. And when the new dishwasher was installed, we said, "Take it back - we want another KitchenAid." And we are so happy that we immediately came back to the best. Our new KitchenAid dishwasher is fantastic, and quiet. Love it!

Top rack dividers are too low

After using previous Kitchenaid dishwasher for 10 years I bought this dishwasher couple of weeks back The top rack feature tempted me to spend extra money but the cutlery does not stay in place as the dividers are too low. This is very disappointing.

HEATING COIL WARPS
USER5000
6/29/2019
I have had this dishwasher for about 2 years. It runs quiet and the dishes sometimes don't get cleaned. I am not dissatisfied with the performance but lately we discovered that the heating coil warped and detached from one of the clips. This is now rubbing on the main water nozzles at the bottom of the machine. This rubbing caused a backing plate to fall off. I think that this may be a design flaw at worst or a reliability problem at best. Now I am hoping I can at least find parts to fix it before more damage is done.

Best of the best dishwasher in the market

I bought this dishwasher almost one month ago after rigorous research through internet and asking various friends. Wasn't sure for which brand to go for despite the fact I had used GE, LG, Samsung and most recently Bosch and all of these in the span of 25 plus years. What troublesome most was Bosch that only lasted for less than five years. I took a bold decision myself and selected Kitchen Aid and so far, amazing results. One of the quietest with best features. This unit made our family and proud to be part of KitchenAid family.

Bought the previous version of this a couple years ago. We used it a couple times a week. About 6 months ago it just stopped cleaning. Called to get it serviced which was then out of warranty period, so that cost us a couple hundred just to get them to look at it and tell us it was likely the motor and it'd be about $400 and up to fix it if it was the motor.

We've been using this dishwasher for just over a month now and so far so good. It's easy to load and has done a good job of cleaning our dishes except for one load where the soap didn't fully dissolve. We were worried that it would melt our plastics, but it hasn't. The plastics dry well with the "Pro Dry" setting.

We had this installed a month ago and have been so happy with all of the features. You cannot even hear it when it's running (which I love). The dishes are very clean as well. The only issue I have is that it's very difficult to fit taller items in for washing (cookware, pans, etc) because of the spin washer under the top rack.

We purchased this dishwasher a month ago and so far works great! It's very quiet.
One thing it doesn't have is air dry without heat. That's a bit of a disappointment. Also, at the same time we purchased 3 other KitchenAid appliances. My biggest disappointment of KitchenAid is that the stainless steel is not mar free and requires constant buffing.

It worked well and I liked it, but after using 2 years, it did suddenly broke. Started to not cleaning dish at all, water seems not circulated. So I called local repair guy (cost me $60) who found out filter inside pump is totally broken. I ordered the part ($80) and replaced it by myself, but it should not be broken in such a short term, get Kitchenaid's reputation bad.

I LOVE how quiet it is, I LOVE the ProScrub feature for my baked on messes and I LOVE how clean my dishes get! I no longer have to pre-soak or pre-scrub all the dishes and silverware. I am going to save so much water!

I have only used it twice since it was installed. It is very quiet and holds more dishes than my former GE profile dishwasher because you have use of the entire bottom rack. It did not come with a lot of instructions, I guess they want you to go online an download the operating manual. I was told I need to run the hot water at the sink prior to running the dishwasher so the water will be hot when the dishwasher starts since it uses very little water to wash the dishes. However, I have forgotten both times. I have put a not on the outside of the dishwasher so we will see if that reminder works. Dishes have come out clean, however, I am one of those people who clean the dishes before putting them in the washer.

Designed for dishes not like mine
Susan in Arizona

The dishes do come out clean on the proscrub cycle that is 2 hours and 48 minutes. There is food residue left in the bottom of the tub, even though I rinse all the dishes moderately before loading them. Here are my other beefs:
• Standard 11 inch dinner plates do not stand upright in the rack if the top (flat) rack is installed. The only way to have dinner plates stand is to remove the upper rack and raise the middle rack. For some reason that configuration contributes to the problem stated in the last bulleted item in this list.
• Bowls do not fit in the bottom rack. The tines are not adjustable to allow a mixing bowl to stand upright. Tine adjustment on the bottom is almost non-existent and useless.
• The flatware basket is huge and can't be taken apart for fewer flatware items.
• The upper rack is not really set up for glassware. It is very finicky about how to place glassware.
• Overall usable space is small because of the difficulty of loading typical dishes and bowls.
• Cleaning cycles are often over two hours.
• The door is difficult to close and sometimes I get so frustrated I want to scream.
I received this dishwasher as a replacement for a Samsung under my home warranty. I'm sure I'm just plain stuck with this albatross for years to come. Oh well, I'm old and probably won't have to deal with it for long. Who designed this thing?
