I have bought 3 other dishwashers and NONE compare to the turbo zone Kenmore elite for getting all the dirtiest dishes, pots and pans, every item clean with out having to rinse or scrape them first. Love it! Makes doing dishes fast and simple. Noise Level very little noise at all-except when power jets are spraying, but otherwise I have to turn everything else in kitchen off and put ear close to dishwasher to hear if it is really on. Cleaning Time cleaning time for dirty dishes is good compared to my last dw-which took way too long and dishes were not clean unless you washed/rinsed before loading so why have a dishwasher then, right? Loading Flexibility racks are adjustable to fit any size items/load. what a plus! Performance very high cleaning performance for price. best yet I owned. Design I bought it in black to match my other kitchen appliances. looks very attractive and modern sleek shiny finish. buttons are hidden under countertop so grandkids can't see or touch. Durability the only problem I see is the durability of the plastic racks. the handles to move racks are very flimsy and can break with too hard pushing/pressure. that is the only fault of this great dishwasher. if you be very gentle it is ok, but you must be careful moving racks.

I might be just a little biased, but I think that Kenmore makes some of the best, most durable and hard working appliances that money can buy. When I re-did my kitchen Kenmore played a starring role. Noise Level This dishwasher is really pretty quiet. After years of washing my family's dishes by hand my hubby finally gave me a dishwasher. This thing could rattle the windows and sound like a jumbo jet taking off in my kitchen and I would still be so happy to not be washing them by hand I wouldn't notice or care about the noise. Cleaning Time Never having owned one before I have nothing to base this on, other than my current observations. I think that the cleaning time is just fine. It is not so quick that you wonder if your dishes are actually clean or not and not so long that you spend a ton of time waiting for them either. I would guess it is about average. Loading Flexibility It really couldn't be easier to load, far easier than washing them by hand anyway. Performance This dishwasher is really awesome. It is a powerhouse and cleans everything I throw it's way without spending a lot of time pre-washing things. Now, it you're the type of person to cook and leave the dirty pots and dishes for days between washing and you expect an outcome of spotless dishes you better think again. Like anything, you get out of it what you put in it. Durability Kenmore is built tough, built to last and durable as anything. I hope it stands up under the heavy use from my crazy big family!

Cleans very well and very quiet. Noise Level It has been the quietest dishwasher I have owned. I had three so far . Cleaning Time Takes a little bit long to run through a cycle but I put it on at bedtime and it's done in the morning so it isn't a big problem. Loading Flexibility You can fit a lot into this dishwasher. There is always room for one more item depending on the size after rearranging a few dishes. Performance Always leaves the dishes very clean. I've never had any food or residue left on the dishes Design I love the stainless steel look. Very clean design and it cleans up easily enough with the stainless steel wipes! Durability I've never had a problem in the 6 yrs I have used it.

This powerful dishwasher is easy to use and super quiet. With a space saving and generous side located silverware bin you can fit plenty of plates, bowls, cups, and mugs in this spacious unit. The top rack has a standard 5 row layout with adjustable height and fold-down pegs for added flexibility. The bottom rack has room for larger bowls and deep serve-ware. The silverware tray is a convenient linear bin with lids that flip down to keep small items in or keep similar pieces of silverware separated. The middle spray arm is powerful and boasts a heavy duty Turbo Zone to thoroughly scour your dirty dishes and leave them spotless. The unit is oh so quiet, we were not sure it was even on at first. It can run at night without keeping anyone up; or turn it on and take a nap in the next room undisturbed! Noise Level Perfect 10 - so quiet! Cleaning Time Standard hour cycle - worth the wait for the sparkling clean dishes. Loading Flexibility Adjustable height on the top rack with fold down pegs to accommodate larger or oddly sides items. Performance Put in dirty dishes - pull out clean ones. Isn't that what everyone wants in a dishwasher? This one delivers! Design Very attractive stainless steel matches our other appliances. Durability Still pretty new so this remains to be seen, but so far so good.

Dishes come out clean. Easy to keep the traps inside clean. You do not realize it is running it is so quiet. Door is easy to open. Did not have to scrap all the food off the plates, just the big pieces of food. Noise Level This dishwasher is so quiet that you do not even realize it is running. Cleaning Time The cleaning time of this dishwasher is average compared to other dishwashers. There is no true time savings. Loading Flexibility The silverware holder can be removed and placed in other places. Performance All items that were placed in the dishwasher came out clean. All the soap dissolved that was placed in the cup. Easy to use. Design Buttons are easy to get to. The dishwasher fit under the counter with no issue. The design is nothing fancy, it looks like most other dishwashers that are out there. Durability With having a young child in the house, it has stood up to him opening and closing the door, pressing the buttons, placing the soap in the cup. He is hard on appliances. The door is easy to open and does not stick.
