I can't believe how quiet it is and how well it cleans.

Our old GE dishwasher finally broke down last November. We could never turn it on if we wanted to watch tv because of the noise. We shopped around for a new dishwasher comparing several models. The salesman at Lowe's was very knowledgeable about the different dishwashers he for sale. I originally...

The KitchenAid Architect dishwasher is a loser.

Ever since we bought this dishwasher we have had nothing but problems.  There is continual food particles left on the plates and dishes.  We were told that we were using the wrong type of detergent, so we got the recommended one and still the same.  Then we were told that we needed to use the glass...

I did a lot of research online before setteling on this Kitchen Aid model. It had the best overall reviews within our price range.

We purchased from Home Depot. They honored their price match plus 10% off guarantee of  Sears' advertised price of $509.99. At $458.99 it was a great buy.

It is amazingly quiet. A world of difference than our 10 Y/O Kenmore.

This Kitchen Aid can easily compete with the more expensive Bosch in every aspect.

Stainless steel interior, very well made, lights reveal which stage that the washer is in.  Cleans dishes with ease and soooo quiet.  I am very pleased with this dishwasher, and I truly believe that it will last me a long time.

My wife and I have had trouble with this machine. It does not seem to wash very well. It is very quiet but dishes come out dirty most of the time. For $800 we thought it would do a better job. Will call service person again to see if it will not work better.

My experience has been superb.  The dishwasher does an efficient job in a timely manner, and I never have to "touch up" anything, even when dishes sit for a few days before there is a full load.  I would recommend it to anyone.

I have owned Kitchen Aid dishwashers in two homes now and am always pleased with their performance.  I prefer the stainless steel interior as it stays cleaner overall.

boy I was glad when we got the dish washer I hate washing dishes no matter what I had not heard of that model before we bought the KitchenAid Architect ll K series but I am glad we found it cause now all I have to do is load and start and them put them away  and it cleans real good some times I will leave a dish till the next day and I have learned to rinse it off then cause the food has dried on the dish but other wise it does great I can start the dishwasher and go run erranes and they are done when I get back that saves time love it

Just bought my first stainless steel appliance, a dishwasher.  I wanted something a little fancy, because we're planning to sell our home in about 5 years and I think upgraded appliances help "sell".  I decided on KitchenAid, because it's available at Best Buy, my favorite big box, and because it's one of the more affordable of the nice appliances.

Although I had to pay for both delivery and installation, I couldn't be happier.  I ran my first load of dirty dishes, and the results are outstanding.  The reviews on BestBuy.com said to go ahead and pay for installation - it's a little tricky. ...
