About this Item

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 impressive cleaning power with thoughtful design features that make daily use a pleasure. The whisper-quiet operation lets you run cycles anytime without disrupting household activities, while the ProWash system tackles everything from delicate glasses to heavily soiled pots without pre-rinsing. The versatile third rack's deeper design cleverly accommodates small bowls and cooking utensils, complementing the adjustable middle rack for maximum loading flexibility. While the heated dry function works well for most items, plastic containers may need extra time. The premium stainless steel interior and fingerprint-resistant exterior speak to quality, though some users note longer cycle times compared to older models.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Glad I bought it [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had for a few weeks and it cleans well. I had an issue the first week where the tray popped out, but the deal replaced the heating element and tray. It's roomier than I thought it would be. The extra tray on top is great. Silverware comes out shiny. It's pretty quiet too. The drawers slide nice.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Everything I Wanted Including Rinse Only Cycle [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dishwasher has been in service for a few weeks now, replacing my worn-out Bosch. I started my search for another Bosch, until I learned that the rinse only feature wasn't offered on Bosch, unless you bought a certain model and used a smartphone app. Since I'm not interested in using my smartphone to start a dishwasher that I just loaded and am standing next to, I expanded my brand search and found this amazing Kitchenaid model. Though I didn't think it possible, I love it even more than my old Bosch. Not only does it offer the rinse feature (with the push of a button) when I don't need to run a full load/cycle, it has well designed racks and cleans like a champ. I only scrape off leftover food and let this beauty do the rest. And it's amazingly quiet as well. This is the first time I've had the 3rd rack and I've found that I use it for quite a few items too, like my glass pizza pan, oversize plastic lids and the like. And no matter where I place items, they get clean! I haven't used the extended dry option yet, as I haven't needed it. Things get dry, with only a few plastic items that sometimes need minor hand drying. I look forward to many happy years with my made in USA, well-designed Kitchenaid dishwasher.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Upgraded Diswasher [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this as a replacement for my 9 year old Kitchen Aid dishwasher. OMG. This inside of the dishwasher seems larger and I like how they have redesigned the drawers. I know they aren't larger, but the redesign is great. The top drawer can be used for coffee cups and everything seems to load so much better and easier. And the dishes seem to be so much cleaner. Must be the extra wash jets. I love my new Kitchen Aid much better than my last one.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve only had this dishwasher about a week, but so far I’m very pleased with its performance! The dishes are clean, very dry when using the “heat dry” option and best of all, it’s very quiet. We can run it and still hear the TV!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Buy [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I brought this dishwasher about two weeks ago. I love how quiet my new dishwasher is. I don't have to blast the volume on the TV anymore while the dishwasher is on. I also love the third shelf, extra space and the adjustable shelves.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing dishwasher!!! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my third KitchenAid dishwasher purchased, and I will never use another dishwasher other than KitchenAid. The one I just replaced, I had for 13 years which seems to be unheard of in this industry. They are quiet, reliable, and are built to last. Installation was extremely easy, allowing me to do it myself.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love how quiet and efficient this washer is. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Dishwasher is so quiet and spacious. Cleans the dishes well. I especially like the 3rd rack. Only con is the cycles are very long. About 3 hours.
Date published: 2025-08-26
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Why did we wait so long! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I didn’t realize how bad the 2 year old contractor grade dishwasher I replaced was until we starting using our Kitchenaid. It’s quieter, easier to load, has more options for small utensils, and gets dishes cleaner.
Date published: 2025-08-26
Rated 5 out of 5 by from The top tray is a good feature. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought the kitchenaid brand because same as our last dishwasher brand. Had it for many years with no issues. This one cleans everything very well and is so quiet. Very impressive!! There is only one feature I'd change...it's on the silverware holder. Make all the slots the larger size because it's frustrating that many pieces won't fit so you have to try different slots. Other than that, we really like it.
Date published: 2025-08-25
Rated 5 out of 5 by from This is a homerun! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I LOVE this machine! I didn't think I'd like the 3rd row but I do. There is so much room to stack a metric dine if dirty dishes. It is super quiet too. My dishes are crazy clean.
Date published: 2025-08-22
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love it. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Happy with this purchase. Love the 3rd rack. It's super quiet! My only small dislikes are the silverware holder's holes are different sizes and some don't fit my silverware. And smaller glasses fall over on the middle rack when opening and closing if not full.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from So Happy I Made The Change [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our previous dishwasher just wasn't getting the dishes clean, particularly the silverware. The first load in my new kitchenaid, turned out so much cleaner, you could actually see & feel the difference..
Date published: 2025-08-20
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Powerful Performance [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our new KitchenAid dishwasher was installed about two months ago and we couldn't be happier with its performance. It is by far the quietest dishwasher we've ever had and does a super job cleaning our dishes and glassware. The third rack on top is a bonus and is very handy for kitchen utensils and longer silverware. I definitely recommend you consider a KitchenAid if you are in the market for a new dishwasher.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best dishwasher I've owned. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought my dishwasher as part of a total kitchen remodel. This machine does an excellent job, its very quiet. My dishes come out clean and dry.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great features! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a month ago & really like it! It’s easier to load, much quieter & the faster cycle of Express Wash is much better than my old dishwasher which is awesome! The Express Wash cycle also offers much less water usage like my old dishwasher which I really like & needed because we have a septic holding tank which requires pumping when full so limited water usage is really needed by us
Date published: 2025-08-17
Rated 5 out of 5 by from It’s so quiet! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I grew up with KitchenAid and it was a no brainer when we remodeled the kitchen that KitchenAid was the brand we were going for.
