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 Loving the cleaning results! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have been using our new kitchenAid dishwasher for a few weeks now. We haven’t tried all the options but right now normal with extended dry is working very well for us. I love the three racks. It’s nice to put things on the top rack, silverware and utensils. The middle rack is great size for all of our glassware and cups. The lower rack is suitable for all of our plates, cutting boards, etc. The thing that we really appreciate is the fact that it is so quiet. Way to go KitchenAid!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fast [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I removed the silverware tray in the bottom, and only use top rack for silverware, works great when the spoons are turned upside down. I run every night, huge capacity, always comes out clean. I’m not sure it dries as well as my old extended pro dry, but it’s good. Also it’s super fast.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Worth every penny! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My prior slightly out of date dishwasher broke and I was simply looking for a replacement. I’m able to run fewer loads since the capacity is so much bigger and the third top rack is a game changer. Instead of using the typical silverware holder I can just use the top third rack giving me extra room on the lowest level. The multi water dispenser inside also make me feel more assured that all the dishes are actually getting cleaned thoroughly.

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.
