So quite!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this dishwasher a month ago and am in love with it. Clean shinny dishes and quite operation of cycles. Easy to use. And the fingerprint resistant stainless steel is a great plus!

    Excellent dishwasher
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We’ve had this dishwasher for just two weeks and we absolutely love it! It is very quiet while it’s operating, and has just the right options for us. Our last Maytag dishwasher was in operation for 15 years with absolutely no problems, so we stayed with Maytag!

      The Maytag dishwasher we had installed by Home Depot and so happy we did. The installers were polite and efficient. The dishwasher is super quiet and washes the dishes and pots and pans so well. We have an open concept kitchen/dining/great room and you'd never guess the dishwasher was running. We are extremely pleased with our purchase. We would definitely recommend to anyone.

      By far the best dishwasher we ever had
      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have had many dishwashers over the years but by a wide margin this new Maytag cleans our dishes, pots and pans the best. This new unit is whisper quiet and easy to use from the moment it was installed. Highly recommend this dishwasher. Well done Maytag

          Gets the Dishes Amazingly Clean!!
          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love our Magtag dishwasher!! It is so quiet and truly gets our dirty dishes extremely clean. The dishes come out drier than our previous dish washer, too! Awesome product!

              The lights on the display are so bright it's very hard to read what the buttons are for. I need to cover the light with my finger to read the button. The door hinge/spring is very tight, so I need to push the door all the way down to get it horizontal with the floor to load/unload. Seems to clean pretty well, and is reasonably quiet.

              This thing works great. easy to install. I couldn't even tell it was running it was so quiet. Dishes came out very hot and dry without the heated drying cycle. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to purchase a new dishwasher. We're extremely happy with this purchase.

              Quiet running
              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this about a month ago, install was easy compared to other dishwashers we had. However buttons are super sensitive, even when locked and would have preferred the kick plate not to have been set back so far. Had to install boards on sides to cover holes.

                Nice dishwasher
                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We only had this a week and after a few washes we are very impressed. Some reviews said it was loud....not so. This thing is extremely quiet. The normal run time is about 2.5 hrs which I thought was long but it cleans great. Also it dries the stuff alot better than our old maytag...probably due to the stainl9steel tub that our last one didnt have. If this last the 13 years we got out of the last one I'll be I heaven. I highly recommend this dishwasher. Good price for a good dishwasher.

                  Great buy
                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought dishwasher 3 weeks ago and have been very happy. Dishes come out completely clean with no rinsing and it runs so quiet you almost don’t know it is running.

                    It is very quiet, attractive, has plenty of options for washes and gets the dishes clean. The one thing I don't care for is that the top shelf seems unusually high and there is no way to adjust/lower it. There is only about eight inches of clearance from the top shelf rack to the top of the interior, limiting what one can put in there. The lower rack has at least 18 inches of clearance. See the picture below, that is a 10 inch dinner plate in there. Therefore, this dishwasher doesn't hold as many dishes as my old one and seems like a lot of wasted space.

                      Good product
                      (This review was collected as part of a promotion.) We have been using this product for a few months and we are pleased with the performance. Some of our cereal bowls and round lipped plates flop over with the straight rack pins on the lower rack. We didn’t have this problem with our previous dishwasher. Would also have been nice to have time remaining on wash.

                        Quiet as a church mouse!
                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have had our new dishwasher just under 2 weeks and could not be happier. We feel it is a great value for the price. It is clean and simple looking and it is an efficient machine. We had a 15 yr. old Maytag that still cleaned, though the racks were rusting out! It was not cost effective to replace the racks : - (. So we took the plunge and went new. She is great!

                          I am giving this a one star review, just because of the delivery/ install. They trashed my kitchen and left it a mess. Installed dishwasher crooked in cabinet, Dishwasher door is dragging on left side of cabinet. It has a one inch gap on the right side. They scratched the lettering off the front of the control panel. The guy that showed up had to borrow my Channel Lock pliers. Because he had lost his.

                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] About this about a month ago and so far the results have been great. Even on the normal setting the toughest pots and pans come clean! And by far the noise level is low!

                              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve owned many Maytag appliances over the years and have never been disappointed. This is my second Maytag dishwasher. Love the clean lines and the stainless steel interior and mechanics. The silverware tray is great for separating all the dishes. No matter how many dishes I put in it always manages to get them spotless.

                                    Great part of a full kitchen suite of products
                                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this dishwasher as part of a full Maytag kitchen suite of products for a fully remodeled kitchen. Old kitchen was torn out to bare stud walls and completely rebuilt with all new products. Project was just completed in the past week, but I have used this dishwasher 3 times so far. Works as I expected and cleans dishes very well.

                                      I'm very frustrated with this dishwasher. I purchased it in July, 2019 and after a few uses, noticed that my dishes weren't getting clean and that there was white film on all of my glassware. I did an online chat with Maytag and was told I had to do an Affresh cleaning treatment to get rid of hard water build-up. I said, "really? after only two uses?" So, I purchased the Affresh tablets online and did the treatment. Still same result. Foggy glassware & dirty dishes. I went to Home Depot to ask about returning the dishwasher and they said they do not accept returns on appliances. They also suggested that I always run the dishwasher on either High Heat or Sanitize. I've done both with no better results. I'm noticing now that in addition to the film on the glassware, my other dishes are not even getting clean. I'm having to almost completely wash my dishes before even putting them into the dishwasher, which, by the way, takes over 3 hours to not wash the dishes. Also, I wish I had looked at this dishwasher in person before buying as the top shelf is not tall enough for wine glasses to stand upright. So, all my wine glasses lean and end up with a white "lip print" mark on the rims. This dishwasher does not meet my expectations and I'd love to get rid of it.

                                              First let me say it is simply the quietest dishwasher I have ever had; Installation was basic nothing outside the norm. I did buy the installation kit (highly recommend). Does a great job on washing I know other reviews have complained about the length of time it takes to wash, all brands take this long. Even my new washing machine takes longer. I think it has something to do with water consumption, everything is designed to save water. The inside is stainless first one I have had like this. Outside controls are easy to read and use so far so good. The dishwasher works great and have had it a month now and use it every day sometimes more than once no complainants. If I have any it’s the cost I had to pay $ 40.00 more to get white –(REALLY WHITE) not everyone has stainless steel appliances. I almost didn’t buy it because of this... came real close to another brand that didn’t charge more for white. Other than that, I highly recommend it..
