About this Item

Overview

KitchenAid 24 in. Built-In Dishwasher with Top 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. Advanced Clean Water Wash System circulates clean water to dishes in all three racks, and the Fan-Enabled ProDry System provides thorough drying, so dishes come out ready for more enjoying.

Features

FreeFlex Third Rack
The largest third rack available 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

Fan-Enabled ProDry System
combines a heating element and fan for optimal drying performance. It circulates hot air around dishes after the wash cycle to give them a thorough dry. To activate, select the ProDry Option or Extended ProDry Option.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Top Controls
are tucked away on top of the dishwasher door for a clean look to match your kitchen style. An indicator light on the front of the door changes colors to subtly display cycle progress.

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.

Extended ProDry Option
extends the ProDry Cycle time by 15 minutes for loads that need extra drying time.

SatinGlide Rails in Third and Middle Racks
allow racks to move effortlessly, even when fully loaded.

Four 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
The Sani Rinse option lets you confidently wash important items with a high-temperature rinse that removes 99.999% of food soil bacteria.

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

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The dishwasher performs very well [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am impressed with the build quality of the dishwasher. My two favorite things are the ProDry system and the design of the racks. The three racks are very useful and they accommodate the many types & sizes of dishes easily.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Just what we wanted! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought a new house 6 months ago. The dishwasher that came with it, despite being new, was so loud when running that we found it annoying. Plus, it did not have the top 3rd rack which we really wanted. So, we made the decision to upgrade this appliance. After looking extensively at the models available, we chose this Kitchenaide model. It has the 3rd row, a drying element, and stainless tub. It's way quieter, and does a great job on the dishes.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy to use [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a long time KitchenAid dishwasher owner. My last one was over 40 years old and I’m not kidding. When it came time to buy a new one, I was not going to get any other brand than KitchenAid. I’ve used it a few times already and is it fabulous. Cannot believe how much more capacity I have. Easy to operate and everything came out spotless like it did for 40 years with my old one. I highly recommend spending the extra money and get yourself a KitchenAid.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Design and fabulous performance [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We installed this dishwasher when we remodeled our kitchen last August. I love it. The third rack gives me all kinds of flexibility in how I load, the ProDry removes all wet spots and our dishes are sparkling. It's also so quiet that sometimes I can't tell it's even running. Thanks Kitchenaid. Highly recommended.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great dishwasher [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used the dishwasher for 2 months and am very pleased with it. Especially like the roomy third rack. Cleans dishes really well. Only negative is the sensitivity of the touch buttons; you can easily press a button by mistake when opening the dishwasher to load or unload.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome Have owned ours for a year now. Personally for us it is far and beyond the best dishwasher we’ve ever owned. The thing is supper quiet I’ve opened it more than once not realizing it was running. Having three racks is genius holds a lot and cleans really well. It definitely is not inexpensive but totally worth it if you can afford it. Very very happy with this dishwasher.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Clean and DRY!!! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this a few weeks ago and so far I love it! It cleans the dishes well without rinsing and it even drys my plastics!! Replaced a similar model that was 14 years old. This one is even better. I love the third rack, it is perfect for bigger utensils and smaller glasses and bowls.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best Drying & Rack System [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Rack system is excellent with more room than our previous unit. ProDry works as advertised with plastics. Very quiet and smooth running. Printed instructions are terrible, but that's with most appliances these days. We are replacing a 5yr old Bosch, (so much for reliability). This is definitely better, but we have only had for less than a month.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Choice for my Family I bought the 604 Kitchenaid dishwasher (D), and it is amazing. I am 60 years old and I have had many many D in my 40 year marriage, but this one is the best with the 3rd rack that holds cups and glasses!! (I load mugs in the middle tray) We are a family of 4 and I run 1 load every single day of the week!! Before I used to load my D and then be left with extra items, then I used to have to re-adjust the items I already loaded to try to fit in the items that were still outside the D. It felt like a puzzle trying to make everything fit. Not anymore, I load it and usually I simply run it on "Pro Wash". The directions say I do NOT need to rinse my dishes. But I am in the habit of rinsing every item before I load it, most likely because I always felt my previous D did not do an excellent job. I have used the Kitchenaid D for 1 month, and every item is sparkling clean after the cycle! Before, once in awhile, I used to get an item that was not 100% clean, so I would need to lightly scrub and rewash in the next cycle. Not anymore. So far, every item has come out 100% spotless. I inspect every single item I pull out of the D! It is very satisfying to have 100% sparking clean items! I have a bedroom right next to the kitchen, and the D is quiet enough not to disturb my daughter. Last Sat, I turned on the D while my husband and I cooked, and the D was quiet enough it did not bother our conversation. I thought I needed a quieter decibel, but even though I have hardwood floors in my home, the noise does not travel out of the kitchen. Noise is really not an issue anymore, and our house is an older 1300 sq ft with mostely and open floor plan. I had to chose between a Bosh that was super at drying and super quiet decibel, but it had a lower load capacity, but for me I need the ability to load everything in 1 load. Mostly I throw in everything including the pots and pans and all plastics. I love to see my kitchen counters clean and empty, I do not even like to have clean dishes drying on the rack, so having the ability to load everything is perfect for me. Noise is not an issue, and if it ever was and issue, the D has a timer so I can run it when I leave to work if I wanted to. But so far, I just run it with no noise problems at all. My only reservation is there is a bit of water on top of the cups sometimes depending on the cup construction, and the tupperware plastics are slightly wet, but I usually use 1 paper towel to slightly wipe these items as I am storing them away, it is not a big deal for me at all. Since the paper towel is wet but clean, I lay it out to dry and reuse it. I hope this is helpful to someone.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Outshines Bosch in Practicality/Versatility IMO [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I did a lot of reading of reviews and “kicking the tires” before deciding that this unit is for me. Key criteria: quiet operation (one open living space), sturdy adjustable racks, format of the rack tines.(Can some fold down? Yes). My friend has a Bosch and I hate it due to its limited versatility in terms of how you configure your plate/bowl placement. I consider loading my dishwasher as a lovingly orchestrated work of art(ok, not really but I do find satisfaction in a neatly loaded machine). This KitchenAid has excellent versatility! You can adjust the rack heights, play with the plate/bowl placement, mix plates and cookware freely. The true challenge was when I had 14 people for dinner. This machine neatly loaded everything except my wine glasses. (I like to hand wash them anyway but did not find the machine having a good option.) There is even a user friendly top (3rd rack) that handles pesky cooking utensils, knives, small bowls and glasses, etc. I am SO happy with this machine and appreciate the sturdiness and design. My ONLY criticism is that the controls are very sensitive to touch and I have a bad habit of touching them when I open the door to add items. I find that I often have to hit the “cancel” button to not activate the wash, delay start, etc.- not a big deal. Hopefully, this dishwasher gives me years of service!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A dishwasher that wows. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love that it has three racks, is super quiet and even totally loaded bottom and middle racks, everything comes out clean with a minimum of detergent used. I've never used the pots and pans settings.

Is the heat vent on the side or bottom ? I clearly see some models have the vent on the door. Does that effect the door? I have an older model with a black door and the vent is located on the door now causing bubbling, rust and pitting.

The vent is located just below the door on the left side
