Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Really Cleans

GabLib 11/12/2019

I bought this to replace an old high end dishwasher that always left me with dirty dishes and silverwear. This Whirlpool is attractive, has a stainless steel tub aand does a fabulous cleaning job quietly and quickly. I couldn't be more pleased with my purchase. Whirpool is made in the USA!

Very quiet

S3122 11/8/2019

I bought my dishwasher a month ago I'm happy with it , but still trying to figure out how to load top rack. Also, the dishes dry throughly but for some reason the inside door stays wet. Once I unload I leave door open a little to dry.

Awkward Loading

Garrison3 6/8/2019

This machine's dish racks are too specialized as to the location of the dishes. It is like working a puzzle every time it is loaded.

washes great

#1Candymaker 2/6/2019

Was installed 1/4/2019 and it is the worst machine I have ever used. Putting dishes in is almost impossible. My 2006 Whirlpool dishwasher was great but I have gone back to washing my dishes by hand, my husband uses I, but not me. If you could have someone show how to use it that would be great.
