Product review (3 stars): very quiet but leaves some food on plates and silverware
Maybe I just don't like modern dishwashers. I had a 1996 Whirlpool that was a bit noisy but got everything clean. I replaced it with a top-of-the-line Bosch that was a service nightmare and never cleaned as well as the Whirlpool. This Kitchenaid is very quiet (quieter than the Bosch). I think the front LED is supposed to be on when the unit is running but mine lights up only at the very end (green). So the quietness results in people opening the door while the machine is running.

After washing (scraped and sometimes rinsed) dishes for a 6-person dinner there will almost always be at least one plate and one fork or spoon that needs to go through again. This is true whether on the default cycle or the heavy duty ones.

The stainless steel front quickly ends up looking dirty.

It isn't a bad machine but probably not worth the price premium.
