Product review (5 stars): Quite, Attractive, Well Designed
The "Whirlpool Gold Series WDF730PAYM" is designed to fit is standard 24" built-in under-the-counter dishwasher opening and it fit into our opening rather nicely some adjustments were made.  The stainless steel unit is attractive, and relatively easy to use and operate and the features are nice especially the PowerScour (one of the reasons we chose this unit), which is designed to get stuck-on and or dried food off casserole dishes; and the delayed time start (another reason we chose this unit).

Another reason we choose this unit was the attractive design.  We liked having the controls on the front of the door and not the top where most manufactures seem to be placing them.  We found this to be inconvenient, especially if you want to make (control) changes without having to open the door to get to the controls.

For a little more green we could have opted for the stainless steel tub, but then the controls switched to the top of the door.  We wanted the controls on the front, so...The Whirlpool Gold Series WDF730PAYM is Energy-Star compliant.

Use

We ran the first load of dishes through the Whirlpool Gold Series WDF730PAYM and not unlike our other Whirlpool unit, I was struck by quiet this dishwasher is.  The lone exception is loud bang approximately 5 minutes into the wash cycle. I have yet to figure out what that is!  The unit has 6 wash cycles; in normal use I usually chose Normal; however if I include pots and pans I will choose the Adaptive Mode. Each cycle completes in about 2 hours and I noted that the wash cycle turned off and on several times during the operation.

Each control on the Whirlpool Gold Series WDF730PAYM has a small blue LED to denote its selection and when the dishes are washed and dried another blue LED illuminates next to a "clean" button.  The control panel is dark grey with white lettering, which makes the various controls easy to read, and like I stated above, the control panel was another reason we choose this unit.

As expected loads come out clean and debris free!  There was a little water left on the top of the coffee cups (they are flipped upside down), but that is to be expected.  At least the water was clean and not swimming with small food particles!  Also noteworthy: our glasses actually look clean and spec free as they were meant to be.

The Whirlpool Gold Series WDF730PAYM has about the same room as our other Whirlpool unit our old unit, but it is slightly more flexible in that some of the rack rows are adjustable and fold completely down in order to accommodate pots, pans, and other large objects.  There is also a stemware holder on either side of the upper rack; nice touch; and clips that could hold more lightweight objects in place for washing.

I like that the silverware rack/holder is on the door and can accommodate large utensils with ease.  No more trying to find a place for them on the upper rack!  And I like that the utensil rack/holder is removable and can be placed anywhere in the lower rack, including the front, which is where we usually place it.

Closing Thoughts

Overall we are very pleased with the "Whirlpool Gold Series WDF730PAYM."  The dishwasher does what a dishwasher is supposed to do: get my dishes clean.  Another cool feature is the delayed wash timer that allows us to load the dishwasher and delay the wash until early in the morning when the electric rates are lower and we are asleep.

One complaint: the upper rack seems a little flimsy; when pulled out all the way it appears as though it is about to break loose.  Perhaps this is due to the adjustable nature of the rack.  Our other Whirlpool units' upper rack did the same thing, but as of yet the rack has not broken, so...
