Nice compact dishwasher
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am limited to an 18 inch dishwasher in my kitchen due to layout, and I bought this one to replace a Kenmore bought in 2008. This one has a nice look and feel, and seems well made. However, there are several pros and cons vs my old one: Pros: the spacing between the racks is very generous, and allows me to fit taller items on both the top and bottom racks than I could with the old one. Also, the water supply tube for the upper rack is more l...

functional but could use design improvement
This little dishwasher is really only ideal for someone who doesnt do much cooking and eats on small plates. You cant even fit a full size plate in the bottom. While the top can hold a couple of plates placed in specific angles, it cant hold many because of the weight and then you have to put all the cups in the lower section which means you cant use the heated dry method or they will warp.

Good Dishwasher
We had a 24” model in a different part of our kitchen for years and it was too far from the sink. Rodents kept chewing into the drain line. It destroyed our kitchen floor. This model is much closer to our new sink, where we couldn’t fit a 24”. The narrower width makes it possible for us to have a dishwasher again after a couple years getting by without one. For that, we’re thankful. Just make sure you get the right install kit because the one Lowes says you need for this dishwasher is missing th...
