<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 12.0px 0.0px; line-height: 20.0px; font: 13.0px Arial; color: #666666;">The Whirlpool Quiet Partner 1 dishwasher get the dishes clean and in a reasonable amount of time. I find that the dishes are reasonably dry at the end of the cycle (we let the steam escape for a bit before unloading). I find the amount of space within the machine for large items unsurpassed by any dishwasher I've ever used. There is also a handy utensil tray which is removable and easy to use. I find family members commenting on how quiet the unit is - we can actually have gathering in the kitchen and have conversation while it is running. <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 12.0px 0.0px; line-height: 20.0px; font: 13.0px Arial; color: #666666;"> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 12.0px 0.0px; line-height: 20.0px; font: 13.0px Arial; color: #666666;">Other than the quietness and capacity, I also dig the simplicity. It has very few buttons and they all cover basic functions -......

free3 says "takes too long and does NOT clean dishes!!!" about Whirlpool Dishwasher - Quiet Partner 1

Total waste of $400!!! The washer takes 3 hours to run a cycle. Did not work from day one. Flimsy parts.... Note to self... never buy the cheapest product nor the highest price! Go for the middle option!

MrsPractical says "Does not dry !" about Whirlpool Dishwasher - Quiet Partner 1

Whirlpool Quiet Partner 1 does not dry. I have loaded the dishes correctly, at an angle. I make sure my rinse agent dispenser is full. Water temperature is 120 degrees. However, dishes are still wet at end of cycle. Glass, utensils, and plastic are all wet. My previous dishwasher was a whirlpool and it would dry so well I had to let the dishes cool before I took them out. This dishwasher does not heat up and the dishes are lukewarm. The dishwasher does not sanitize when the water is not hot. I have had a repairman to come out and check the dishwasher out. No problems were found. However, I continue to have wet dishes.

When shopping for a dishwasher, we tried our hardest to find an American made product. Discovered that was almost impossible. This one had components made in the US and Canada, which was acceptable. We have had the dishwasher for six months, it is used at least once per day and I have nothing but good things to say about it. The utensil basket is in the door, which frees up the entire bottom basket for large pots, pans, lids and dishes. I wash all of my plastics in the dishwasher as well and have never had them shrink or melt in this particular dishwasher. I have inserted items with dried, stuck on food and ran the high temperature cycle. I did not really expect it to get the dishes spotless, but was rather surprised at the results. The dishwasher is also as quiet as promised. Before I bought the dishwasher, I read reviews that listed negatives and will agree there are issues that might be considered unfavorable. This dishwasher does take a VERY long time to run through a cycle; I am talking...

buggy73 says "Dishes semi-clean and it takes waaay too long! " about Whirlpool Dishwasher - Quiet Partner 1

Wista75 says "The Quiet Partner I, is it quiet?" about Whirlpool Dishwasher - Quiet Partner 1

Wista75 — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 23:36:44 GMT

The Quiet Partner I is not very quiet & the cycles run very long. However it does clean fairly efficiently. There are 4 cycles: "Pots & Pans", "Normal", "Light" and "Rinse Only". You have two heating options: "High-Temp Wash" and "Heated Dry". One helpful tool is the time delay. You have the option to time delay the cycle of your choice by 2, 4 or 6 hours. Another useful tool is the indicator lights for when the machine is "Washing", "Drying" and "Clean". While the Quiet Partner 1 has it's pro's and con's, there are many newer, quieter versions available today....
