The washer is well built, light and easy to install. While it is advertised to be quiet. We found it a little noisier than the old one. It does a great job washing the dishes but takes at least 90 minutes to do a good job. We ordered a new water line but could have used the old one. One drawback was the small size of the silverware caddy. We tossed it and bought a bigger one online along with a small dishwasher box to hold bottle lids. Very simple to use.
