About this Item

Overview

KitchenAid 24 in. Built-In Dishwasher with Front Control, 44 dBA Sound Level, 16 Place Settings, 5 Wash Cycles & Sanitize Cycle

44 dBA Dishwasher in PrintShield Finish with FreeFlex Third Rack
Keep up with the tools you use from prep to table with this dishwasher's three racks of versatile loading possibilities and complete wash coverage. The FreeFlex Third Rack fits glasses, mugs, bowls, silverware and cooking tools, freeing up room below for pots, plates and mixing bowls. The Advanced Clean Water Wash System circulates clean water to dishes in all three racks.

Features

FreeFlex Third Rack
The largest third rack available1 has a deep, angled design that fits 6" glasses, mugs and bowls. It features rotating wash jets to clean items in the rack, a drying bar with tabs that help wick moisture off glasses and a removable utensil tray for cooking tools.

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.

Advanced Clean Water Wash System
uses microfiltration to continuously remove food particles during the wash and rinse cycles and circulates clean water to dishes in all three racks. This allows dirty cookware and delicate glassware to be washed together in the same load.

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.

Additional Features

44 dBA
provides quiet cleaning without compromising performance, so there's no need to wait to run a wash cycle while entertaining and enjoying meals, even in open concept kitchens.

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.

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.

Adjustable Rows in Middle and Lower Racks
fold down to make room for dishes in a variety of shapes and sizes like roasting pans, serving bowls, colanders and dutch ovens.

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

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.

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.

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.

Two Stemware Holders in Middle Rack
secure wine glasses along the side of the rack to prevent them from moving around during the wash cycle.

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

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 combines whisper-quiet operation with impressive cleaning power, making it ideal for open-concept homes and busy families. The stainless steel interior and three-rack design, including a versatile FreeFlex third rack, maximize space efficiency for full family meals and entertaining needs. While cycle times run longer than average, the ProWash feature intelligently handles everything from delicate glassware to baked-on food with minimal pre-rinsing. The adjustable racks and tines offer flexible loading options, though there's a learning curve to master optimal arrangement. Drying performance is generally strong with heated dry settings, though plastic items may need extra attention. Despite some concerns about specific plastic components, the overall build quality suggests reliable performance for daily use.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good as Expected [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Early review, I had an LG low DB unit and this one is even more quieter. The Thing I like best is the top shelf, my old one only accepted flat items this one loading make sense.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect Dishwasher! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this dishwasher a week ago. I LOVE it so far. I really like the 3rd rack at the top! I use it for cups & other small items. I haven't run out of space yet. I like the layout of the racks & can fit in a lot more dishes than in my old one. I like the control panel on the front - so easy to see. It's powerful & quiet. The finish is sleek & elegant. I'm glad my old one burned up LOL.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from High Performance Dishwasher! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We've had this dishwasher for about a month, and it is simply excellent. It cleans and dries dishes very well. It's incredibly quiet when running and our chairs in the living room are only about 15' away (open concept living room, kitchen and dining area) and you cannot hear the dishwasher. We picked this model because of the design of the third rack (top) and it is extremely useful because of the flexibility in what you can put on the rack including glasses, mugs, large utensils, etc. We've only used the normal cycle with heated dry and haven't seen the need to use the other cycles. The stainless-steel finish is great and doesn't show many fingerprints at all and just needs wiping with a clean cloth. Say goodbye to stainless steel cleaning products! It's the best dishwasher we have ever owned!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love my Kitchenaid! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love my dishwasher! Love the extra shelf and that the shelves are adjustable. Cleans as good as all the Kitchenaid dishwashers I’ve had in the past. I do like the print shield which I have not had on other models. It’s a must!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Many Great Features [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We are so happy with this choice of dishwasher! We LOVE the third adjustable rack❤️. Husband is so appreciative of the utensil removable holder AND the utensil area on the third rack. The third rack also allows small glassware or plastic items. The water is efficiently dispersed for all three racks. we replaced a 15 year old dishwasher that was having some issues. Oh yes, this dishwasher is very quiet too!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from We didn’t know what we were missing [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We’ve had this for about a month and we’re so glad we did. The is the most quiet dishwasher EVER. Everything gets amazingly clean- no spots- and we have a 3rd level which is phenomenal. I would have never imagined that I’d actually be excited about a dishwasher- but here I am!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Happy so far! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our dishwasher was delivered about a week ago and has performed very well. Very quiet.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Repeat Customer [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our old KitchenAid made it 16-years without any problems. Our kitchen has wood floors so the one thing you don't want is a water leak. So far we've never had one. When it came time to replace it every store we went to referred to KitchenAid as one of the best you can buy. So, we didn't hesitate to purchase another one. The new one is quieter than the old and I'm sure more energy efficient. We've been very pleased with our purchase.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love this dishwasher! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My new dishwasher is wonderful, at first I thought how in the world will 3 trays work, but once I started using it, I realized how convenient and easy the 3 trays are. The dishwasher is very quiet, easy to start and every time I open it to use it, I am surprised how much room it has and how easy it is to load. Highly recommend the machine, it is first class

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Dishwasher is quiet but has some operating issues. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Used for a couple of weeks. Washes and cleans dishes fine. However, rack spacing is too far appart, thus not enough plate space. Put towels on the handle and they touch the floor when unit door is opened plus it's almost impossible to not touch and activate the controls when closing the door. The manual (printed on low quality hard to read paper) goes to great length on how to install the unit but fails to explain how to load the dishwasher. There are no notes regarding being careful loading high items on the lower shelf and the rotary bar hitting the dishes. Details on how to correct this issues is not discussed.
