Dishwasher capacity is measured by how many place settings the model can hold with most standard-sized dishwashers handling between 10 and 12 place settings.
Dishwasher dimensions and dishwasher capacity are not the same thing. Larger dimensions do not necessarily mean you can fit more dishes inside. This is because every dishwasher interior is designed differently including the number of racks, the placement of tines and the available features that can help handle more dishes within the same dimensions. Once you’ve determined which dishwasher dimensions will fit your space, consider capacity and available features to find a dishwasher made for the way you create.
