Kenmore Dishwasher Repairs

If you're looking for help fixing your Kenmore Dishwasher, look no further! Our comprehensive Kenmore Dishwasher repair guide will explain common issues, provide tips, and maybe show you how to repair your appliance.

For the home, kitchen and beyond, Kenmore manufactures appliances that homeowners have come to trust. Even a trustworthy appliance requires occasional maintenance or repair, however. If you’re in need of Kenmore appliance repair from experienced professionals, your local Appliance Helper can help.

Kenmore Dishwasher not cleaning 
Water Inlet Valve. The water inlet valve opens to allow water to enter the dishwasher. If the valve is clogged or defective, the dishwasher won’t get enough water to clean dishes properly. If the water inlet valve is clogged, replace it. Do not attempt to clean the water inlet valve—cleaning the valve could make it more likely to fail. 

Why Won't my Kenmore Dishwasher Drain? 
Drain Impeller. The drain impeller pushes water through the drain hose and into the garbage disposer or drain line. If the impeller is broken, replace it. 

Kenmore Dishwasher buttons not working 
Touchpad. First, confirm that the dishwasher display is working. If the display is still working, try pressing some of the touchpad buttons. If some of the buttons respond correctly but others don’t, it is likely that the touchpad is at fault. (Some manufacturers sell the touchpad separately from the control panel. Other manufacturers require that you purchase the touchpad and control panel together. If you cannot replace the touchpad individually, replace the touchpad and control panel.) 

Kenmore Dishwasher lights flashing or blinking 
Heating Element. The heating element heats up the water to operating temperature. If the water doesn’t reach the proper temperature after a set amount of time, a light on the control panel might start flashing. To determine if the heating element has burned out, use a multimeter to test it for continuity. If the heating element does not have continuity, replace it. 

Kenmore Dishwasher leaking 
Water Inlet Valve. The water inlet valve opens to allow water to enter the dishwasher. If the water inlet valve is stuck open, the dishwasher will continue to fill with water until the dishwasher leaks or overflows. If the water inlet valve is at fault, replace it. Water inlet valves are not repairable—if the valve is defective, you must replace it. 

Kenmore Dishwasher leaking from motor area 
Impeller and Seal Kit. First, try to determine the source of the leak. If the water is leaking from the motor shaft area, the motor shaft seal is likely defective. If the seal is defective, replace it. (Some manufacturers sell the seal independently of the impeller. Other manufacturers require that you purchase the impeller and seal together. Still other manufacturers require that you purchase the entire pump and motor assembly instead of the impeller and seal. It is usually more cost effective to replace the impeller and seal kit rather than the pump and motor assembly.) 

Kenmore Dishwasher won't start 
Door Switch. The door switch prevents the dishwasher from running while the door is open. If the door switch is defective, the switch will prevent the dishwasher from running even when the door is closed. To determine if the door switch is at fault, use a multimeter to test the switch for continuity. If the switch does not have continuity, replace it. 

Kenmore Dishwasher won't latch 
Door Hinge. If the door hinges are damaged, the door won’t be able to latch properly. Inspect the door hinges for damage. If a hinge is bent or broken, replace it. 

Kenmore Dishwasher dispenser not dispensing soap 
Bi-Metal. The bi-metal actuator is a metal loop which acts as a latch for the dispenser door. As electricity is applied to the bi-metal, it deforms and bends away from the latch, releasing it. If the bi-metal is burned out, it won’t release the dispenser door. To determine if the bi-metal has burned out, use a multimeter to test it for continuity. If the bi-metal does not have continuity, replace it. In addition, make sure that the dishwasher is getting enough water. If the water level is too low, the wash motor may not draw enough current through the bimetal, causing the bimetal not to bend enough to work properly.

My dishes are clean when they come out. I was afraid that there would be food residues and other stains, but that did not happened. It has a great number of water jets that get the dishes wash at every angle. Its just the right size, plenty of space inside to fit large plates and pots and pans. The bottom shelves makes it easy to wash large baking sheets and the separators help organize and allow you to fit many dishes in there. It had a very advanced top of the line sleek look that do not disappoint. It looks more like a work of art than a dishwasher. I felt like I bought something straight from the future. What I got for the price I got was not bad. I expect it will last me a long time and work hard for my family. The price couldve been less which would have been awesome. But I got what I paid for.

The performance of our Kenmore dishwasher has been something our family has
The performance of our Kenmore dishwasher has been something our family has depended on for years. It has made it easy for us to know exactly what to expect no matter what type of dishes/glassware we put in it. This built-in dishwasher fits in just right for our kitchen size, surrounding cabinets and in proportion to the other appliances. Although ours is a white dishwasher, it has remained very easy to keep clean inside and out! The color has stayed true and has not faded out or yellowed over time. The price we paid for our dishwasher has come back to us many, many times over as it saves on water and can be counted on to clean everything the first time so there is never a need to re-run the same items.

Kenmore was the dishwasher that came in the home I was renting. I liked all the various settings that could be used with it. The dishes also always came out very clean and tidy. I never had to put them back in again and rewash them which I cant say for other brands of dishwasher I have used. But I disliked how long it took to clean all the dishes. It felt like it took forever to just get that one load of dishes done. Also the drying cycle never fully dried the dishes so I would have to towel dry everything when it was done.

I only had to rinse any heavy or dried food off. It cleaned very well in a quick amount of time. Has good options for cycles. I have a family of 5 and this dishwasher was good for that amount of people. It got a workout on holidays and family gatherings. Most pots and pans fit well and were cleaned to my standards. Easy to clean inside and out. Mine was white and the surface was very easy to keep clean. No fingerprints. Just wiped it down with a soapy towel and dried it off. I ran it empty to clean the inside. After comparing prices and brands, the Kenmore stood out as the best value. I have not regretted buying this dishwasher, it has delivered in all areas, cost, reliability, getting my dishes clean and overall satisfaction.

In March of 2012 we bought a Kenmore dishwasher. In August of 2012 the door latch had to be repaired due to a manufacturing defect. Today the upper rack assembly fell apart for about the 4th time, this time permanently. The one part that would fix it is not available on the replacement parts website. When you spend almost $900 on a new appliance you should be able to expect more reliability and more longevity. This thing is a piece of junk and were getting rid of it. Sears used to be a reliable retailer. What happened? Shouldnt have to spend an average of more than $300/Year on something as simple as a dishwasher.

The Kenmore dishwasher uses a reasonable amount of energy and water. The dishes come out clean after one wash. I never have to run it more than once a day. Plus, there is enough room to hold several days worth of dishes. It fits well in my kitchen without taking up too much cabinet space. Its sleek and looks classy. The clean look goes well any time of the year with any aesthetic changes I make based on upcoming holidays, events, etc. It is worth the money for the quality. The features help pay for itself over the years. If bought again, I would make the same purchase.

It is a good dishwasher but Im not too crazy about it. It does not wash the dishes perfectly. Even if you pre-wash the dishes, do not see any crazy results. Its size is ok, fits perfectly and for the family of 4 it is just enough space in it. Im not too crazy about the appearance. Nothing special just white. A little old looking not too modern design. But still good enough. The value of the dishwasher is very good. It does not cost a fortune. I would say a good value for what it does. In some stores is really cheap.

It fits perfectly, not too big not too small. Its a little compact but a lot of space on the inside. Very good and gets the job done. It looks good. Goes good with any kitchen decor. Fits in perfectly with any theme and doesnt stand out too much. While it is a little pricey, it does pay for itself in no time. Financing could also be available to those who need the extra to get it.

The dishwasher came pre-installed in the home we purchased so we did not have a say in the purchase. But we kept it because of its energy efficiency and the knowledge we had of Kenmore being awesome products. My Kenmore had an energy efficient rating which saved money by heating the water internally instead of using hot water from the water heater. It was also a great name brand we knew and trusted. However, the racks in the dishwasher needed to be bigger and easier to organize. New dishwashers have a silverware rack built in which would have been great. The shelves also needed to be further apart for large glasses.

It gets the job done. It does a good job cleaning the dishes and also drying them. There usually is not a spot left on the dishes or glasses. The size of the dishwasher is appropriate.

It is made nice and it is sturdy. I cannot complain about the appearance. The dirt also comes off nicely when you clean it. The value of the dishwasher was nice. I think the price that I paid was a fair price especially for what the dishwasher does. I cannot complain about the price that I paid.

This dishwasher was purchased brand new in 2013. By 2016 we had to completely replace the core mechanical guts of this dishwasher. And now in January 2019 it is failing again. When it works it does a great job. But what kind of appliance which cost $1000 has a life expectancy of three years before needing its entire motor assembly to be replaced. And then two years after that it is not working. Kenmore is garbage! No wonder Sears is going under. Apparently Kenmore is made by Whirlpool. They should be ashamed of themselves. Do not buy a Kenmore dishwasher before reading the plethora of bad reviews.

Works well and has a good sound when cleaning. I like the quietness of the product and length it takes to run the dishwashing cycle. I dont have to rinse dishes before I put them in the dishwasher. Nice, efficient size for any kitchen. I can fit any dish, pot, or pan into the machine and it will be clean. I dont have to separate the silverware exactly. Price was good and I got what I paid for. Didnt have to purchase an expensive product to get the cleaning power that I needed to get my dishes clean.

We looked at different stores and different brands, but Sears had the Kenmore dishwasher on sale. I liked that it had a cutting board top, but I had to rub oil on it a lot to keep it looking good. I liked that it was movable and I could load it in the dining room and move it to the kitchen to run. I also liked that it opened from the top, it held a lot of dishes, not very noisy when running, and was easy to load dishes into it. I also had other Kenmore brand appliances and knew that they were a good dependable brand. But I disliked that when you hooked it to the faucet that you could not use the sink while it ran. It also would have been good to have the hose longer, and have the hook up to the faucet have it so you could still use the faucet. I also had to have the dishwasher tight up to the counter and I would have liked to have a longer electrical cord that plugged into the wall.

Kenmore is the best brand in the business. Theyre quality products with the most advanced technology. They are constantly striving to be better than their competition. I love the heated dry feature and the fast dry feature. I love the energy efficiency. They use so much less energy than the dishwashers of the competition. I also love the whisper quiet feature as it keeps the noise levels to a minimum yet very strong on cleaning the mess. Plus, it takes less water to run the dishwasher than it does to take a shower.

Our Kenmore Dishwasher occasionally has problems but its worth its value. I wouldnt want any other brand. It is effective at what it does and it is built to last. It can clean my dishes relatively quick and I am very satisfied with my purchase. I hope this one lasts a while. It is a great product since Kenmore makes good products. I have only had Kenmore for the past 5 years after switching brands and Ive seen a drastic improvement in quality and efficiency. Its a normal size for a dishwasher and it gets the job done. I can always do multiple loads if necessary. Its a very good looking dishwasher and it hardly gets dirty, and if it does, its easy to clean. It blends perfectly with my kitchen cabinets and other appliances. Its just like any other washer, yet cheaper and better. I didnt overpay for this washer. I think its one of the better ones and I would gladly pay this price again, because it is so durable.

We purchased this dishwasher in February 2017 to replace our 17 year old unit. Ratings appeared to be positive for this unit. We have to prewash everything we put into this unit! Even then, they will sometimes pick up crud we might have missed. I was totally spoiled with our old dishwasher, also a Kenmore. The only thing that would sometimes stick, was melted on cheese. What good is a dishwasher, if you have to prewash the dishes before using it? Can hardly wait for it to break, so it can be replaced! Probably not in my lifetime, given I usually opt to just hand wash our dishes at this point. Grrr! If a representative from Sears would like to contact me, they are more than welcome to do so. I welcome the contact!

Kenmore is a well known brand of kitchen appliances and it did meet my expectations in every way. It was a really good dishwasher and never had any problems whatsoever with it. But, I dislike how water stayed in the bottom of mine after the wash cycle. I’m not sure if it was just a defect in the one I had bought but I loved everything else about it. I also like that it really does good with getting the dishes clean and I feel like they always had a streak free shine and a good heated wash cycle and left my dishes smelling good every time.

When I first made the purchase, the value seemed appropriate. However the performance isnt what it used to be, resulting in needing to do more wash cycles to clean the dishes. The size is fairly sufficient although there have been plenty of occasions where I would like the capacity to be bigger. I often have to do more than one load. Your periods is fine for the most part. It would be nice if the color could be changed somehow to accommodate other appliance colors. Happy with the results and the performance has been satisfactory withholding a few occasions when the dishes are not clean enough. Works fairly well.

There was a Kenmore dishwasher in the house we bought. One morning, I discovered that our Kenmore dishwasher was broken. We replaced it with another Kenmore dishwasher. It had a timer. I really like a timer, so that my dishes will be washed while I sleep. Dishwashers are very handy. One can wash dishes, and if someone is sick, the dishes will be sterilized. This cuts down on the spread of germs.

I used it for around 3 months, and in that time period it did a good enough job. Well I have a family of 5, so usually when I did dishes I had to do 2 loads to fit everything in and get it cleaned. It wasnt too much of a hassle, my family uses a lot of dishware. It definitely looks good in any modern kitchen. My specific dishwasher was silver with black trim on the top. It was compact and it didnt take up too much space. Overall it looked good and even added to the room it was in. I wasnt able to test it enough before I moved, there was a brand new dishwasher at my new house. So I cant say for sure but for what Ive seen Id say it was well worth the money. I didnt have a single problem with it when I used it.

Kenmore is recommended to me by someone that bought the brand and was very satisfied by it and I decided to try the brand. The capacity of the dishwasher is of a good quantity and very practical for many plates and cups. It is very convenient and the thoroughness of the washing. It is much better than other brands. But it does not rinse out correctly when the dishwasher is too full and the spacing between the units is cramped up. The stains remain on the glasses and it does cause an inconvenience at times.

I like the sleekness of the design as well as the overall performance of this brand of appliance. I trust this brand very much. I would improve the noise level on the dishwasher, I feel that whenever it was running I was unable to concentrate on anything else. I often had to wait until late at night before going to bed to start the dishwasher, so that I was able to hear the television. It did not, however, interfere with my sleep. It was quite a satisfactory experience, and I would definitely purchase an appliance from the Kenmore brand again. I would also recommend this brand to anyone.

The dishwasher work fine with minimal hardware issues, but the power arm broke one time. We got rid of it when we redid the kitchen and upgrade to a stainless steel version. It look good and held up really well through heavy use in a busy kitchen. I didnt really like the opener but it work well and never leaked. However, it wasnt quite big enough to hold a full day worth of dishes for a family of 5. The glass rack was especially small and the plate rack didnt accommodate enough small plates. Its well worth the price especially on sale and I recommend the extended maintenance agreement. Not worrying about the unit breaking is priceless when you have a pile of kid.

Im satisfied with the appearance of this dishwasher although this dishwasher looks like your standard dishwasher. The color and finish are acceptable. The dial does not stand out in a bad way. This dishwasher has plenty of room for all types of dishes, from plates and bowls to mixing bowls to pots and pans to silverware to cups and mugs. I dont have a problem fitting in all my dishes. It does exactly what a dishwasher should: cleans dishes without pre-washing. Its efficient, not too loud, and easy to use. This specific dishwasher is a good value when compared to all dishwashers. It isnt ridiculously expensive, but its also not cheap or poorly made. I would recommend this dishwasher and If youre in the market for a dishwasher, this is a good value for your money.

Definitely reliable and sturdy. Lasts a long time if treated well. Also cleans really well with spotless dishes. Personally I loved my dishwasher. The dishwasher was kind of small on the top task. Could definitely use more space for pots and pans and larger than normal cookie sheets. Not the most attractive dishwasher. If you want performance, go for this one but if you want appearance then something else would be for you. Definitely a great value. Great performance for a great price. Very good investment to make for a new family on a budget. Lasts for a really long time so makes the buy even better.

Have purchased several Kenmore Elite appliances over the years, but it appears the quality control and service is declining. Bought a Consumer Report highly rated KE dishwasher. CR has subsequently noted consumer complaints about the dishwasher. Mine is still under warranty and it stopped working. The control panel needs to be replaced and being told the part is on back order and no idea when it will be available, but no earlier than four weeks! Thinking maybe because I am still under warranty, I am back in line to those who are out of warranty and need to pay for the part. It is inconvenient when an appliance is not working for a week or two; crazy that any company thinks it is acceptable to sell appliances that cannot be repaired for a month or more.

The dishwasher gets the dishes nice and clean. I can easy stack the dishes
The dishwasher gets the dishes nice and clean. I can easy stack the dishes on the rack and they come out very clean. The power to the dishwasher is very powerful and does a great job with the rinse cycle, where there is no food or residue left on the dishes. The size of the dishwasher could be a little bigger, it a good size but would like more room for cups. It sometimes is hard to put large pots and pans in the dishwasher with other dishes, especially if there is grease on them. I have to wash them before I put them in the dishwasher to make sure the grease comes off. The dishwasher is black, which I love because its easy to keep clean and looking new. The button on the dishwasher is black with white writing to allow you to see when each cycle is happening (rinse, dry, etc). It is easy to wipe off and keep clean and it goes well with the other appliances in the kitchen. The value is okay! I feel it could be better and far as the size. However, when you live in an apartment you cannot pick the dishwasher you really want. When you are buying a home you have more choices or can buy what you want.

The Kenmore dishwasher cleans all my dishes and doesnt leave a single mark or any scratches on my dishes. The performance of this product is great. The size of the dishwasher is big but it doesnt get in the way. It doesnt block you from anything in your kitchen or wherever you put it. Its nice and looks like a dishwasher. Ive seen some that dont look like one. The value is great. I paid a good price for it and Ive had it for 3 years. I havent had a single problem. Everyone should buy this product.

Although the dishwasher seems to function well the dishes do not appear to be cleaned thoroughly. I feel like this so purpose of the dishwasher is to clean the dishes and about 50% of my dishware appears cloudy dirty and not to the level of cleanliness I would expect from a machine that washes dishes. It may be a combination of dishwasher itself or the product used within the dishwasher. I consider most dishwashers to be rather bare and ugly because its built to perform and not to decorate one’s house. But I have no complaints regarding its appearance. If it was any bigger it would look ridiculous in our kitchen. Seems at times to be too small or too big depending on the need. But its regular standard size, one that mustve been thought through and researched by the Kenmore manufacturers.

Simple function, cleaned dishes really well, easy to use, energy-efficient and fast drying time, easy to load, very little leaking, easy for children to load and unload. It was big enough to hold and clean my familys everyday dish use. It sometimes had to separate the really dirty pots and pans from the dinnerware. It blended well into the rest of the kitchen. Easy wipe down. Really up to date looking but not standing out. Easy to match with my existing appliances. I thought it was a little pricey but the price was worth the quality of the machine. Very little maintenance cost and upkeep. I guess paying for the brand is worth it.

The dishwasher fits a load of dishes no problem. The dishes fit perfectly in there. I can put my crock pot in there the glass part. The silverware have a handy little container that fits perfectly. My tall cups fit in there perfectly. It is sleek and goes perfectly with all the other appliances in my kitchen. Its easy to open, its easy to use. The buttons are very clear to read and theres very many options to pick from.

It gets food off everything, even if not rinsed out. It dries the dishes well and the pot feature is great. The filter on the bottom separates the food. This makes it easy too. The top has good depth and fits tall glasses and also some pots and pans. The bottom can fit in a lot and often I can get extra dishes, glasses and casserole dishes, even pot tops or roasting pans. I try and keep it clean and wipe it down with a dose decent spray. Also we clean the inside every couple of months. The value for money has exceeded our expectations. The dishwasher is really sturdy inside and was not made with flimsy plastic.

Dishwasher worked fine. Got dishes clean and functioned well. No issues with spots and did not miss any areas. Worked quickly and efficiently. Long life. Had it for several years. I was able to wash a days worth of dishes from four people. Never had to worry about having dishes needing to be held over for the next load. Now if it could put the dishes away too... It was a nice dishwasher that fit in nicely not sticking out. Just fit in nicely with the rest of the kitchen appliances. Ran quiet and blended in as a dishwasher should. It was priced well for the features. There are more expensive dishwashers and cheaper dishwashers out on the market. It was reasonably priced for the features.

Works very well compared to other dishwashers I have used in the past. Have not had any problems at all. The dishes come out very shiny and clean without much rinsing before putting them in the dishwasher. Would highly recommend! It is just the right size for my families needs. Can get everything in there I need to without any problems. Not too large as to wash a load of dishes and have a lot of extra space left. I like the appearance very much. I like the black exterior as it does not show dirt at all so I just clean it once a week whether it looks like it needs it or not. The dishwasher is a great value. Not too expensive as to the average homeowner not being able to afford it. The quality is excellent for the money.

The machine is easy to use, dishes are spotless. Long lasting use and hardly ever malfunctions. Can clean delicate glass, China, ceramic, plastic and woods. I am satisfied with the product and would buy another if mine broke down. It fits really well under the counters and installs very well against the wall. Its a good size to move around to install and the inside fits a good amount of dishes all shapes and sizes. The color fits well with other appliances I own and looks nice against my counter tops. Its also easy to keep clean and wipe down. Out of the many colors they sold, black fit best with what I already had. The washing machine was a reasonable value for shipping and installing. Its easy to maintain and keep running and lasts longer. The washing machine was definitely worth the market value.

The performance of my dishwasher was fantastic. It washes clean and doesnt leave any residue behind or soap scum. It washes my dishes fast and gets them clean on the first cycle. You never have to worry about washing them twice because they always come out clean. The size of my dishwasher is great and very big. It fits all my dishes as well as pots and pans in one wash. You can stuff it full and it will still clean your dishes really great. Ive never had any problems with my dishwasher. The appearance of my dishwasher is great. Its ball and it always looks clean no matter what. I just love it because it matches everything I have in my kitchen because black pretty much matches everything and I would recommend this to anyone and everyone. The value of my dishwasher is great because I got a lifetime warranty on mine which means if it ever breaks I get to take it back and get it replaced by a new one. You definitely get what you pay for plus so much more.

When youre raising a brood of boys that eat constantly, your Kenmore dishwasher never stops running! Keeping my dinnerware spotless for years too! I cook almost every meal at home for 4 people. I load breakfast, lunch AND dinner dishes throughout the day/evening with a little room to spare for a midnight snack. THEN, I turn it on before bed, ready for the next days meal. Wash, rinse, repeat! Dependable and reliable. Until the day I moved out of our 18 year residency of our first home, our Kenmore dishwasher kept the appearance of new! I hated to leave her behind! Any brand dishwasher, (Kenmore) that can last 18+ years IS A GREAT VALUE! My ex still lives in that home, my son recently out of the service, moved back in. Is still filling that Kenmore dishwasher since he was a teen. Id say... THATS A GOOD VALUE FOR OUR MONEY!

Not only is the finish impeccable, but its easy to clean and doesnt keep fingerprints like my other steel appliances. This dishwasher was a great deal. And it has stayed economical because it saves on water. Im able to do more dishes quickly. Woo! A nice washer all around.

Went out shopping over 20 years ago to Sears with limited money for dishwasher. Sales told me this was truly the best. Took him at his word and in all these years I have never had to pay for any repairs and still is efficient. It is very quiet, you can choose heat of water, and stop drying process and let air dry, has a special cycle to clean dishwasher. The dishes come out spotless without any extra rinses. The outside is still beautiful shiny black too. I love it. I would bet I have a miracle dishwasher, I dont know if it is as energy efficient as todays new one but I would never get rid of it.

Never had any problems with this dishwasher, it performed like brand new until we moved and had to leave it behind. Its a good looking dishwasher, nothing unattractive about it really. Its all white minus the details, and fit in well with the other appliances except my stainless steel fridge, but thats mine and not purchased to have matched the appliances of the house we were in at the time. Id say it was just big enough to fit most of our dishes, but not so large as to be bulky or an eyesore. It could have been a little bigger, but overall I was satisfied with the size of this machine. Id say it was a great value. It ran smoothly, it looked good, it never had any issues, so for me it was a winner. Our current dishwasher is nowhere near as awesome and constantly has mechanical issues.

When it was purchased, circa 1998, it has a stainless interior, China setting, rinse only cycle, levers that came down for stemware, adjustable top rack, sanitizing cycle, and very quiet. I loved that dishwasher. It was great. The installation could have been better though. My ex didnt know what he was doing and cut a hole in one of the hoses and it took 2 weeks to get it replaced. Overall, for appliances, we always went to Kenmore first. The reliability and warranty were unbeatable. We owned several Kenmore appliances without disappointment.

I saw the reviews online from 4 years ago - why was this problem not addressed? Very disappointed, especially for the price. Also, my dishwasher is doing the exact same thing. Previously, I had GE Profile - NEVER HAD A PROBLEM. To top it all, Sears is stating that I should have called within 72 hours - seriously? Very poor on their part.

It does its job but you have to practically wash the dishes first. It does take the load of having to do dish but it could be better. I have had a few issues but that could have also been my roommate placing the dishes in incorrectly. This model is perfect for one person but for numerous people its a bit hard not to fill it up quickly. The size of the racks are a tad bit too small for my taste. Its the typical white, fridge texture on the outside. It isnt the best to look at but honestly, who cares about looks when what matters is that it gets its job done. The value of this dishwasher isnt the best Ive ever seen but it still works. Yes the shinier dishwashers probably work better but for how long can they keep that up?

Ive had this dishwasher for a while and I love it. My dishes never break and they always come out clean. I dont have to rewash them because of leftover food residue. Its very reliable and easy to use. Even my children love it. My dishwasher perfectly suits my households needs. I normally run it in the morning after breakfast and in the evening after dinner. The only time I have to run it more than once night is when I have holiday or dinner parties. Other than that all my dishware and cooking ware usually fits in one setting. As far as my dishwashers appearance goes, I think it is very nice looking. It blends in with my kitchen and it is very easy to clean. I actually think it makes my kitchen look nicer. I think its a great buy for its value. It wasnt ridiculously expensive as I thought it would be to purchase a dishwasher. It works great and has all the feature I was hoping for.

It is very good and cleans well. I like the delay start and different cycles. Hot Water Rinse. Various cycles: China, Pots/Pans, light wash, water miser. 2 racks with flatware basket that sits in the bottom rack. Can hold 20 cups/glasses on top rack and 20 plates and more on bottom. Holds pots well, has two rows of prongs that will lie flat for bigger pans to fit. This is an in the counter dishwasher and all that shows is the front. It is white and is yellowing slightly. I have had it for about 15 years. The bottom basket is metal covered in rubber. The prongs are breaking and to replace the basket would be cost prohibitive. I will have to replace the dishwasher.

Its spray arm is powerful and scrubs heavily crusted plates without leaving behind any residue, at least that has been my experience. I fit up to a setting of eight though its capacity is up to ten plate settings. Its compact but powerful cleans dishes that are piled up. It is gorgeous, sleek, compact (but tall) and surface is easy to clean. It isnt bulky, giving it a modern and efficient appearance. Its about 36 inches tall and it is very deep. It is very inexpensive for what it can do. It is energy efficient with many settings to accommodate your loads. It is also easy to self install if you dont want Sears service people (or anybody else) to assist with installation.

The best thing I like is the stainless steel inside of this dishwasher. However, we have had problems with debris being left in cups/glasses, especially if they are put on the bottom rack. For the most part Im happy with the size of the dishwasher. Frying pans and large pots fit on the bottom rack...just doesnt leave much room for any dishes if they are very large. We have a black outside on the dishwasher which I have found to be very nice for hiding dirt. Most stains are not very noticeable and it clears very easy with a quick wipe down. This was a little more expensive than the other dishwashers but it was worth the money because it consistently works hard with large loads and a large family.

I bought this dishwasher about 3 years ago and this is the first dishwasher I have that never had a problem with it breaking or malfunction. It was on the smaller side but I could usually get all of my dishes in one cycle compared to my last washer. It had more room for dishes and less aesthetics to make it wider and to up less space. It was simple but easy on the eyes, it didnt need a lot of aesthetics like most dishwashers to make it look cluttered. I would recommend this dishwasher to anyone that need something simple but nice-looking and gets the job done. For the price, this is a large and reliable dishwasher that I have. Never had a problem with this washer unlike all the other brands that I had that broke in the first 6 months.

The Kenmore Dishwasher cleans dishes well without having to pre-wash, runs quietly, water and energy saver, good looking and affordable. Its a great brand name that stands behind their products. I own black stainless steel appliances and I wanted a medium-sized dishwasher with LED lights not a knob-turning older, cheap-looking appliance. This one looks beautiful, black and fits in with the high-quality look of my kitchen without taking up too much cabinet space and affordable.

Performance is high function and relatively easy to perform at its best. Every glass and dishware I have put in comes out sparkly clean. The size of dishwasher is amazing. I can nearly fit whatever dishes I have used at dinner. The most surprising event was in thanksgiving I was able to fit all the plates in this washer and still is effective. I am happy about the appearance of my dishwasher. It looks plain. Nothing extraordinary but the effect it has on my dishes is AMAZING. It looks like silver clear reflection. The dishwasher is on the more expensive side. I am satisfied with the value I bought it for. If the product dishwasher wasnt as effective as it seems I would not bought it for its price.

Wonderful. I love this dishwasher to be amazing. The kids are in charge of washing the dishes. They do not pre-wash etc. They just shove the dishes in the washer and turn it on and poof the dishes comes out spotless. The size is just right. Again the kids are in charge of the dishes and they shove everything into the dishwasher - pots, pans, spoon, forks, cheese cutter, cutting board. And there is room for everything. It is just the right size. I choose Chrome and black cause I am not sure of what kind of refrigerator I am going to get so black and Chrome works. Worth every dime I spent of the dishwasher and times are hard so it was money well spent. I like the fact that it does not use a lot of water and it is not so loud that it keeps the baby up or disturb the dogs.

It cleaned the dishes amazingly. I have never seen my dishes so clean. The process was quick and efficient. I highly recommend this dishwasher if you want your dishes clean. It is an alright size but it could fit most of my dishes but some I had to wait to do them separate. This shouldnt stop you from getting it. So what if it doesnt fit all of the dishes, it fits most. Though the performance is great the design was slacking big time. It could look so much better but dont judge a book by its cover. The appearance shouldnt throw you off too much. The price was so worth it. You might think its a little too much but the value for the performance is great. I know, I usually have a problem with prices but this my only exception.

Runs super quiet. Has several cycle options for whatever your cleaning needs are. Built solid. Superb quality for the money spent. I would highly recommend this product if you are considering a new dishwasher. The size is perfect for my familys needs. Four people go through a lot of dishes. Usually runs once a day. Plenty of room for all our cleaning needs. I love the black. It goes well with my kitchens decor. Easy to clean and attractive. When we visited the store and saw the floor model it stood out very easily against some of the other models. It was an easy sell and we are very pleased. I cant say enough about the value for the money spent. We got a great deal on this unit and the store had several in stock. I have never regretted making this purchase. Money well spent on an investment.

I was kind of upset because I didnt know that I bought this product used. There were a lot of things that needed to be fix even though the seller didnt tell me that something was wrong. But after I fixed it, it worked like a charm and loved it ever since. The size of this product squeeze right in the area that I had. Any bigger then I would had to take the product back to the store. But I am very happy with this purchase. I would recommend buying this product. But buying it used of course. The appearance is nice to look at. I like the black color of this dishwasher. Very nice and matte color. It would look good in each and every kitchen. The value was good, I didnt pay much for it. The only problem that I had was like I said I didnt know I was buying it used and it came with a lot of problems so I put more into this product than expected but I am very happy that I bought it because it gets the job done.

I have had my dishwasher for a long time. And it runs perfectly. It is amazing at making all dishes look sparkling clean. And it is big enough to put a whole cupboard of glasses into and still wash completely. I am able to put half of a cupboard of cups on the top rack and still have room for other bowls. And the bottom rack holds big pots and pans. And I also put plates too. I love the size of this dishwasher. I love the appearance of this dishwasher too. Even though its kind of plain. It is a white color and its totally OK to me. I was going to get a stainless steel one but I have little kids in the house and I would be cleaning it all the time. The price of this dishwasher was very good as well. When I wash looking for a dishwasher to buy I didnt have a lot to spend. So I ended up looking at Kenmore and they had very decent priced dishwashers.

Kenmore Dishwasher has a nice size. It fits an overflowing sink full of dishes with plenty of room for my larger pots and pans as well. It is easy to load and unload. It is cute. It collects a lot of dust and other particles from my four-year old daughter but nothing a little bleach cannot clean up. Otherwise it is very nice. You cannot beat the price for the performance you get. It is very affordable and gets the job done right the first time. No rewashing dishes over and over and no spots. Works great, cant beat that for sure. Kids can use it easily as well. No hassles, no fuss, just clean dishes every day!

I chose Kenmore Dishwashers because have a good reputation when it comes to their appliances. They deliver and install and I was able to find a good price. The reviews that I read during my research process were mostly positive. Also, I had a Kenmore dishwasher in an old apartment and I was satisfied with it. I like that it has different cycles for specific needs for dishes. The heat dry and the antibacterial option were great for sterilizing baby bottles, etc. I appreciated the non-drip tray for the dish liquid. I did not like how long it took to wash the dishes on the majority of the cycle options. Most of the time I couldnt hear the Done beep that is provided. Id rather it be louder or a music type of tune to be played so I can hear when its ready.

Is a very practical machine. You only have to do is program the dishwasher and wait 30 min and thats it. Your dish come always clean and dry. The machine fits me very well because I have a smaller space and I like it very much. I think is a good machine for me, because my house require a small space. Its no a luxury dishwasher but its good enough for me, because combines perfectly in my kitchen. The machine its not expensive device. I found it in a good value, and I just feel very happy to bought in a very good price. I will recommended to my friends.

It performs very well. Makes life real easy. Stops the wife from **. Very satisfied overall. Easy to fill. Dishes come clean the first time. Its convenient. Fits right under my counter. Makes it so easy to load. Less stress on the back. For me its the perfect size. My dishwasher is white, and blends well with my kitchen, and since my formica counters are white, it looks like it belongs there. I have had my dishwasher about a year now. Works as good as when I first got it. Easy to maintain. In the long run well worth every penny I spent on it.

I bought and installed a new Kenmore dishwasher from Sears (model # 665.13042k113 manufactured by Whirlpool) approximately 3 years ago. I infrequently use it, perhaps 4 times per month (less now). About a year ago plastic parts started falling off of the upper dish rack. Now, every time I use the upper dish rack, it falls off the track onto the lower rack. I am very disappointed in the product and will never buy a Kenmore or Whirlpool product again. I would expect that an expensive appliance would last longer than 2 years without falling apart. I like to support American industry, but if this is what we are turning out now, I will buy foreign products in the future.

This seems to be a basic model without a lot of the features some other dishwashers have. I have to pre-rinse my dishes or I will end up with food particles all over my clean dishes. As long as I do that it works fine. I like the size of this dishwasher. I can usually fit all of my plates, saucers and bowls on the bottom rack without a problem. The top rack fits lots of glasses and cooking pots. I like the smooth white finish of this dishwasher. It is easy to wipe down and looks clean and simple. I bought it because it matches my Kenmore refrigerator perfectly. This dishwasher was a very good value in comparison to most other dishwasher models with special features and/or finishes. I didnt need all the bells and whistles, so this one was just right.

Got dishes and pots and pans very clean and dried very well also. And ran very quietly, hardly ever heard it running. It was standard size --held a lot of dishes and pots and pans. Could almost fit every thanksgiving dinner stuff in--in one wash. Never had a problem with it cleaning or drying. Wish I still had it. It was standard size white in color. Came with our place. Big enough for our family of five. I would recommend it to anyone who hates to wash dishes. I cant say what it cost, it came with our trailer, but it was worth its weight in gold to me. Never had one issue with it. Always worked very well.

I found a really good price on the pair. Although it doesnt sing and dance like some of the expensive models, it works just fine. I have had the pair for about 5 years with no problems. I like the chemical dispenser which is in the right place and easy to pop out and stick in the dishwasher.

We have had this for quite some time and have NEVER had any issues with it. Great qualities, amazing performance, etc. If you need a daily used dishwasher Id recommend this one. We now have a family of seven. It will fit all plates, cups, silverware, pans or pots used to cook dinner plus any extra dishes from lunch or breakfast. Black, shiny, doesnt stand out too much but just enough to look good with any kitchen color. The color has never faded and the buttons still look great. Its value was so worth what we paid. The appearance, size, continence all makes up for the amount we paid. Also the delay start adds a plus to it.

This dishwasher is very small, can fit almost anywhere. But the inside has enough space for a good sink full of dishes for those that like to rinse and go. No need to remove countertops. It can be hooked up under the sink. There arent many buttons, so it is simple and easy to use. Great for set it and forget it. No need to wipe dry, the dishes are spotless when the wash cycle is over. When it was running it was silent unlike most dishwashers, the dishes were clean. The dry time wasnt long. I really like the safety lock during the wash cycle. The value is very worth it, not over priced. Good size inside and out. It comes in white that goes with everything. When having a dinner party people can rinse their dish, leave it in the dishwasher. Turning it on during movie night is no interruption, it is a silent wash.

Would gave a 4.5 instead of 4, but you dont have it, and 5 means its perfect, there always room for improvement in my view. Had the dishwasher for 18+ yrs and during that time only had to replace a clogged spray arm at the bottom. A $20.00 parts. DIY. Therefore it does not owes me anything and was money well spent, especially in these days where most mechanical & electronic usually requires a 5 or 10 years warranty extension on something which should last 20 years plus. Thus manufacturer are not really doing a good QC of their products.

I live in an apartment so space was a concern. I researched reviews and chose what I believed was the best dishwasher for the price. Kenmore has met my initial expectations. The dishwasher is Easy to use and has ample loading space. In general, Im very satisfied with the features of my dishwasher. My only complaint is that it possibly needs more spraying power as it Occasionally does not fully wash utensils when there are a lot of them.

The reason I purchased a Kenmore dishwasher over other brands is because all my life I have bought the Kenmore brand. My family has bought the Kenmore brand. Im 44 yrs old and thats how long I have bought into this brand. The Kenmore dishwasher feature I like best is that the machine is so quiet. When I load the dishwasher and then push the start button and the machine itself turns on, I can hardly tell that it is on. But the dishwasher leaves spots on my glasses all the time no matter what kind of detergent I use.

Works great! Gets even dried dirt and food off. Everything is very sanitary and the glasses are clear. Drying does take a while, but other than that I am more than pleased. Holds daily dishes for a family of 4 with no problems. Racks fold up and down to accommodate odd sizes or extras. Plenty of room for silverware and utensils. Fits great with the rest of the kitchen. I have both stainless and black appliances and this brings them all together quite nicely. It blends in while at the same time looks great. It must have been worth it because I have been quite pleased and have never had any issues with it.

We purchased the Kenmore dishwasher with our Best Buy credit card so we are paying a pretty high interest rate! But it is definitely worth every penny! It cleans great, and is very quiet. I love the sections. I am crazy about where everything goes in the dishwasher it is very easy to keep everything organized. It is very big on the inside. In the old dishwasher, I would have to do separate loads after a larger family dinner, not with this one, everything fits and gets clean! I love the stainless steel, and the look itself is classy, not bulky and would fit well in any kitchen! The buttons are also not big and bulky so my kids cant play with them either.
