Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

I love how quite it is

Nama Brenda 11/24/2019

This was a Christmas gift from my Son and Daughter in Law. I love this dishwasher. I love that it has an hour cycle, so I can start it if it's not to full and I know that my dishes will be nice and clean.

cleans peanut butter off knives!

WoodyC 11/10/2019

Our previous dishwasher would not clean peanut butter. A quite unexpected pleasant surprise was to see the water glasses come out without any deposits. So far, everything is fine.

Don't waste your money!

DCulp 9/24/2019

This is absolutely the worst dishwasher ever! All my dishes cups and flatware come out smeared and stained looking. I literally have to scrub everything before putting it in the dishwasher. I have always pre washed but this is scrubbing which is completely different! I miss my old dishwasher it was the best! I thought there was something wrong with this new one, DOC appliances came out and verified nothing was wrong it only has 1 top sprayer and it's basically you get what you pay for. I'm so disappointed, this should not even be sold!

Useless1 4/26/2019

I bought this a month ago and already have had an issue with it drying the dishes. I have had to contact Whirlpool to have it repaired. I had previously had a whirlpool dishwasher that lasted 16 years with not issues, but this one has not been to the same standard.

Does not dry

RSoCal 4/22/2019

This dishwasher came with my new manufactured home. It does not dry my dishes. Very unsanitary to have dishes sitting wet. After a cycle, including a heat dry, there is water on the dishes and on the sides and bottom of the machine. Whirlpool suggested rinse aid and sent me a sample, but this machine has no dispenser! It stays wet even if I leave the door open after the cycle is finished. Whirlpool is sending a technician outs so maybe it is fixable, but it seems like a design issue from the reviews.

Cleans dishes but is loud

Miller1973218 1/15/2019

It is a good dishwasher just didnt realize how loud it would be. With the noise that the machine makes sounds like it should beable to get all debris off the dishes. Which normal everyday use it does but every once in awhile we'll have some really stuck food. Also our cookie sheets dont fit the greatest we must tilt them so much to fit that it will take up most room on the bottom. Next dishwasher will definitely be whirlpool but a must for a bigger quieter one

Bella25 10/31/2018

This dishwasher is in our new home, and after one month I am happy with the thorough clean it provides. Even coffee stains were completely removed, which was not true of our last dishwasher.

Heated dry is terrible

Cali_luv78 4/25/2018

I went to closing on my house a little over a month ago, this dishwasher was what the builder supplied. It washes the dishes, but the heated dry doesn't work.

Decent machine so far

Colonel2018 3/29/2018

Really only two little complaints and that is that it leaves dishes a little wet even after the heat dry. The other is that you have to press the start button twice. Otherwise, it gets the dishes clean and is pretty quiet.

Washes great just doesn't dry the dishes

Buggalala 2/11/2018

Just recently bought and very disappointed. Washes dishes perfectly but doesn't dry the dishes and they end up musty and smelly. Thought I did something wrong so I put the same dishes to wash again and ended up with the same results. Heating element doesn't seem to be working. Also when you open the door during a cycle a "resume" light is supposed to light up under the start button and this doesn't happen. Very disappointed

Best Dishwasher I have Owned

CAL208 11/15/2017

No frills dishwasher but I absolutely love it. It's so quiet and cleans great! All of my previous washers had the design where the water squirted upwards from a center rod. This always caused the dishes to turn upside down. Nothing worse than coming back to cups and bowls full of dirty water. This unit has a different design to where the water comes out of multiple jet streams. No more turned over dishes!
