What Customers Are Saying
This compact dishwasher offers impressive features and capacity despite its small size. Reviewers praise its quiet operation, flexible rack configuration, and effective cleaning and drying performance. The third rack provides extra storage for utensils and larger items. While it may not accommodate very large dishes, most customers find it meets their needs well and describe it as "compact but mighty." The adjustable racks and half-load option add to its versatility.
Customer review summary generated by AI, including incentivized reviews.Helpful associates but confusing system
I find that there is alot of confusion when ordering online. I originally ordered a stove, fridge and the dishwasher. I kept getting text and emails with conflicting info about whether the appliances would be delivered or i would pick them up and if they would be installed or not. I needed them all delivered on the same day. I finally got frustrated and ordered the stove and fridge from a local appliance store.

Disappointed
The dishwasher was delivered with dents in it. Had to return. The return process, contacting Lowes and trying to resolve this problem was a disaster. If I can I will shop other places for my appliances from now on.

Arrived damaged
We didn’t even take it out of the box. It was visibly damaged the moment we opened the box. The mounting brackets and tub were bent. Lowe’s did not want to take it back, because it had been more than 48 hours.

The 18” is perfect for my small space!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given this product in exchange for my honest review. I truly love this Kenmore 18-inch dishwasher. It fits perfectly in my small kitchen without taking up too much space. Despite its compact size, it has plenty of storage and holds more dishes than I expected. The half-load wash option is a great feature for when I don’t have a full load, saving water and energy. It runs quietly and cleans dishes thoroughly. The white finish looks sleek a...

Excellent, Quiet, & Thoughtfully designed
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given this product in exchange for my honest review. We needed an 18” dishwasher after renovating our kitchen, and to be honest I was a little bit skeptical of ‘downgrading’ to something smaller than a standard 24” dishwasher and after loading this one time, my skepticism was thrown out the window. The way this machine is organized allows you to really load it up with a lot of dishes, and they actually come out sparkling clean; something ...
