Kitchenaid Whisper Quiet Plus
by Alan Comfort
(Vancouver, BC)
This machine is without doubt the worst appliance that I have ever owned. It cost over $1000 and has not worked properly since the day it was installed. The digital control panel is buggy and has to be re-set on a regular basis.
The rollers in the sliding racks disintegrated after two months of use. The water heater is now non-functional and the repair estimate is $400. It sometimes takes two hours to complete the cycle (the buggy control panel again).
The warranty has run out so I will be taking it to the land fill and replacing it with something new that costs about the same as the needed repairs.
I strongly advise against buying a Kitchenaid dishwasher.
