This dishwasher is amazing. Cleaning performance is flawless. It certainly mops the floor with my old kdss21. It’s uplifting to know that manufacturers “can” make good appliances. |

Eugene, since I didn't get to see any food soil of the load contents, you will get a certification for the loading pattern worthy enough to qualify for superb user manual loading examples. Especially for busy families. Given there is no worthwhile user manuals with this whole new series of the new K line for Maytag, KA, and WP, I think it' a joke what WP did for user manuals this go round. No estimated cycle time ranges for each cycle or water consumption. And just one graphic illustration in the quick reference guide for all 3 racks for what's right and what's wrong. Downright pathetic.

Nice dishwasher Eugene. The new WP dishwasher platform looks very impressive. Their third rack is innovative and sure makes it look like it can hold quite a lot compared to competitors. It will be interesting to see the long term reliability. |

What cycle do you generally use? The new review from consumer reports rated them as Very Good at cleaning performance with the Normal cycle. Not sure if they still use the high temp wash though. |

So that's the worthy alternative to my Samsung, which was my 2nd choice for consideration while a Whirlpool boasting the old Sani Temp would have been my third...
Pretty similar, although my Samsung was chosen because the top rack is much slimmer for keeping the rubber grommet rings for my blender in and the flat surface for real shallow pans, particularly a large round one for pizza... Only once did I take it out when the middle shelf needed more height and didn't have anything microsized that needed to be done... Looks excellent, and post more like I did! -- Dave |

of this machine in action so we can see what's going on inside. |

Eugene, I'm curious if you can hear it when it's filling? I have a new MOL Whirlpool and was a little surprised how loud it is when filling. The noise can best be described as whistling. I couldn't hear my previous Bosch or Frigidaire during the fills.
Wondering if WP made the KA (and maybe upper-end WP/MT units) silent during the fills. |

If so, I'd love to see what's going on inside the machine first with it empty so we can see what the water pressure will be, and then with various load conditions so we can see what goes on. Also, the cycle will make a good ASMR. I'd love that. |
