Which dishwasher is the most reliable? People often ask this question when the time comes to replace their old appliances. Dishwashers last about 10 years, but some brands last longer than others. Longevity and durability play a big role in the satisfaction that consumers feel when they buy a dishwasher. Knowing which brands are the most reliable can help you choose the right one for your kitchen.
At Don's Appliances, we've done some research to find out which dishwashers are the longest lasting and least likely to break. We've checked with consumer ratings, read through reliable publications, and we've even talked to our own customers. Here's what you need to know about the most reliable dishwasher brands.
Bosch
Bosch dishwashers are the most reliable dishwasher brands on the market today. What makes them different? Bosch has combined innovation and quality construction to create a dishwasher that creatively solves some standard dishwasher problems.
- Third rack. Bosch has designed a 3rd rack for holding utensils like knives, spoons and forks. The third rack, found only in some models, leaves more room for dishes while enabling you to organize utensils the way you see fit.
- Quiet operation. Bosch claims their dishwashers are the quietest in the United States, and for good reason. Their dishwashers are so quiet that Bosch has installed a special light to alert homeowners when their dishwasher is running.
- Efficiency. Many modern Bosch dishwashers are ENERGY STAR rated, and consume just under three gallons of water per cycle.
- Easy cleaning power. Reviewers of Bosch dishwashers claim they don't have to pre-wash dishes! After simply putting dishes into the dishwasher, dishes come out clean.
At Don's Appliances, Bosch dishwashers start at around $539. It's hard to find a better value than that!
KitchenAid
KitchenAid dishwashers are a close runner-up to Bosch. They're best known for their "ProDry" function, which enables KitchenAid dishwashers to dry dishes completely with each cycle. The cleaning action on KitchenAid is very good too, so that by the time the dishes are dried, consumers can rest assured the dishes will come out properly cleaned.
In comparison to Bosch DIshwashers, Kitchen-Aid dishwashers are also known to be just slightly louder than most Bosch models, so there's no concern that these dishwashers will keep you up or interfere with meals or evening television. Kitchen-Aid's also have a larger rack for dishes and are easier to load. You can fit more dishes easiier than with some other brands. For those of you who don't know how to make efficient use of the interior space in your dishwasher, you'll get more use out of your Kitchen-Aid than any other brand.
*ENERGY STAR rated KitchenAids can use as little as 2.6 gallons of water on the normal cycle. For homeowners who want to save money and get their dishes as clean as possible, Kitchen-Aid's are great appliances, and they're available for as little as $650 at Don's Appliances.
