About this Item

KitchenAid 24 in. Built-In Dishwasher with Front Control, 39 dBA Sound Level, 13 Place Settings, 5 Wash Cycles & Sanitize Cycle

39 dBA Dishwasher with Third Level Utensil Rack
The quietest KitchenAid Dishwasher provides quiet cleaning without compromising performance, so there's no need to wait to run a wash cycle. A third level utensil rack holds silverware, serving utensils and spatulas, and an adjustable middle rack adds flexibility to fit tall items. The ProWash Cycle automatically adapts settings, because you're always cleaning up after something different.

Features

ProWash Cycle
uses sensors to measure soil levels throughout the cycle and adapts wash time and water temperature as needed for tough messes or lighter loads, because no two meals or the dishes that result are exactly the same.

Adjustable Middle Rack
adds flexibility to fit tall items like a stand mixer bowl. Lower the rack to place large dishes inside or raise it to make room for platters, pitchers, blender jars and more in the rack below.

PrintShield Finish
Resists smudges and fingerprints. The specialized coating for stainless steel is easy to clean with just water and a soft cloth, so you can spend more time cooking and less time cleaning up the kitchen.

Heat Dry Option
heats both the final rinse water and the air inside the dishwasher to help dishes come out dry and ready for your next creation.

Additional Features

39 dBA
provides the quietest cleaning available from KitchenAid Dishwashers, so there's no need to wait to run a wash cycle while entertaining and enjoying meals, even in open concept kitchens.

Extended Heat Dry Option
extends the Heat Dry Cycle time by 14 minutes for items that need extra drying time.

SatinGlide Rails in Third and Middle Racks
move smoothly for easy loading and unloading.

Sani-Rinse Option
eliminates 99.999% of food soil bacteria by adding a high-heat final rinse to sanitize dishes.

Leak Detection System
provides peace of mind with three levels of protection against potential sources of leaks, from multiple sensing points with a water flow monitor and drip tray. If the system detects a problem, the dishwasher will stop filling, drain the tub and alert that service is needed.

Third Level Utensil Rack
provides additional space for long and flat items like silverware, serving utensils and spatulas.

Durable Stainless Steel Interior
offers the beauty and benefits of stainless steel inside the dishwasher. It resists streaks, stains and odors, while retaining heat to help improve drying.

Express Wash Cycle
cleans in less time, so you always have the dishes you need while prepping, cooking and entertaining.

Triple Filtration System
uses three levels of filtration to remove food particles during the wash and rinse cycles. This ensures clean water circulates through the wash arms and onto dishes, even with dirty cookware in the load.

Eco Series
Designed with efficiency in mind. Saving you water, energy and money with quality wash and dry performance.*Compared to dishwashers meeting the minimum 2023 Department of Energy efficiency standards

Customers Say

AI-generated from the text of customer reviews

This built-in dishwasher delivers impressively clean dishes with whisper-quiet operation at just 39 dBA, making it perfect for open floor plans and overnight runs. The stainless steel interior and solid construction inspire confidence, though some plastic components draw mixed reactions. While the adjustable racks and innovative third rack offer good organization potential, some users find the space configuration challenging for larger items. Cleaning performance shines, especially on tough, baked-on foods, though drying can be inconsistent with plastics. The straightforward controls and variety of cycles provide essential functionality, despite longer run times of 2-3 hours. Most owners appreciate the thoughtful engineering, even as they adapt to its few limitations.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great dishwasher [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I highly recommend the Kitchen Aid dishwasher with third-level utensil rack. The dishwasher is very quiet, and does a fabulous job of cleaning all my dishes/ utensils and pots. I love the third rack; very convenient. The dishwasher holds a lot. Small complaint - heat drying does a decent job, just not A+. The construction of the dishwasher is wonderful - very solid. It also looks great! We are very pleased!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Quiet as advertised, yet a cleaing machine. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really bought this dishwasher because of the quieter run time. I was impressed just how quiet it was. You can stand in front of it and have a conversation. The dishwasher also does a great job at cleaning the dishes as well. It was well worth the money to buy something at the top end instead of shopping price only. Thanks KitchenAid.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Super quiet and easy to install [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this new dishwasher to replace an old Amana unit with a plastic tub. The Amana sounded like a cement mixer when running. This new Kitchen Aid is so quiet, we don't hear it running even when we are in the kitchen. Installation was a breeze. I did it myself. If I could give it ten stars, I would!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Marvelous Machine !!! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Marvelous machine !!! This unit is well built, great looking, quiet, and cleans dishes, pots or pans incredibly well !!! I couldn't be more pleased with a purchase. My only criticism has nothing to do with Kitchenaid, but rather where I bought it and their installation process.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Quieter than my Bosch [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve only had my KitchenAid dishwasher a short time, but I’ve been very impressed with its performance so far. With my old dishwasher, I would have to put at least one or two dishes back through another cycle - especially with any baked on food. But with the KitchenAid, my dishes have been coming out sparkling clean no matter which cycle I use. The racks are spacious enough that I don’t need to remove the silverware basket to fit everything in, but I do like the option of using the third rack for utensils and other items. What is most impressive is how quiet this machine is. It’s quieter than the Bosch dishwasher I used to have. I have to put my ear up against the machine to tell if it’s running. I like the controls on the front panel, although I did accidentally select some functions when I brushed up against it once, and again when I opened the door to load some dishes. The only complaint I have is that the soap dispenser doesn’t match the quality of the rest of the machine. The latch is rather flimsy and I’m not sure how long it will last before breaking. Also, it is hard to read the indicator for the rinse agent. Other than that, I have had no problems.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love this dishwasher! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this dishwasher! The inside is so shiny and the dishes come out so clean! I love the top tray for utensils and the strainer that can be removed for cleaning. My last washer had to be taken apart to cleanup the food remnants, so gross! I also love the fingerprint free front and great price. Also love the service plan at a very affordable price!! Thank you KitchenAid!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Features! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very quiet, leans dishes well without rinsing and is very attractive. It is a very sturdy, well-built dishwasher. I’m still not sold on the top utensil rack but it is there if I need it. I also like being able to use or not use certain features.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I actually purchased this same model 11 years ago and was happy back then. It served me well. When I decided to replace it, I was so glad that the same model was available so I knew it would fit in the same spot as the old one. It was like welcoming a new friend. The added features are a welcomed addition. I could not believe that the new one is ever more quiet than the last. I feel confident that this one will be as faithful to me as the last. Keep up the good work! I was also glad I could still be able to get it in white since all the appliances in my kitchen are white and I didn't have to wait long to have it delivered.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Looks and cleans awesome! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Is it better than the ten year old Amana? Yes, but. It is not as quite as ai expected, the padded blanket definitely helps with sound control. The stainless tub is great, it cleans great, and has nice settings. It also looks awesome. My biggest complaint is it doesn’t seem to have as many tines and makes organization a little more tricky than I am used to.

Dishes come out very wet even with the heated dry on. Any suggestions?

Asked by: Lisa
Make sure you are not using the express wash or rinse cycles and when selectioncting one of the other cycles (nornal, pro and tough), the Heat Dry light is illuminated.
