Product Reviews
Rated 4.7 out of 5 by 129 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5 by This product is a nice dish washing appliance. This dishwasher is a nice unit. Installation by homeowner was easy. The unit works well. Do have small problem, of dishes not drying well, but have to further review progress and settings to decide for sure. Unit is large and lots of room. Unit is a little noisy, not totally quiet. Much better than my previous 1988 model. 5/17/13
Rated 2 out of 5 by Disappointed with technology! I'm disappointed with the idea that I have to press an extra button that will tell my dishwasher to dry the clean dishes, instead of the machine just doing this as part of the cleaning cycle--not so with my old dishwasher! I also am trying to adjust to the different configurations of the shelves-it doesn't seem that my new dishwasher has the space and configuration as my old dishwasher which held quite a bit of dirty dishes-better design! The machine does look classy but efficiency and ease of working are my main concerns. 5/14/13
Rated 5 out of 5 by This dishwasher cleans great and is quite. We really like this dishwasher, the racks are great and easy to adjust. The racks are designed well for dish placment and loading is a breese ! Dishes come out sparkling clean even on the normal setting and glasses come out spot free, even without a rinse aid. The 10 Year warranty is a big plus as well. We highly recomend this dishwasher!!! 5/13/13
Rated 1 out of 5 by Did not live up to Reviews AT ALL Reviews said quiet. It is loud. Arrived with a broken upper basket. Maytag sent a new part & required me to fix it myself. Now the door is leaking on the left side. This is the most expensive dishwasher I've ever purchased & I've had more problems then the $500 models I used to grab at the Sears Scratch & Dent!! I will NEVER buy a maytag dishwasher again. I feel the reviews must be faked, because this dishwasher didn't live up to a single thing. Maytag tries to get you to figure out the problem yourself too!! For $800 the thing should work!! I shouldn't have to turn myself into a repair man. 5/8/13
