"I'm loving my new dishwasher. It replaced my Fisher Paykel dish drawer that was over 20 years old. It is quiet and the dishes get squeaky clean. I have always enjoyed the flexibility of having the 2 drawers that operate separately so I can load dirty dishes in the other drawer even if I haven't emptied the clean dishes in the other drawer."

Why Do Quiet Dishwashers Matter?
In the past, you may not have paid much attention to your dishwasher noise level, but changing circumstances can often make the noise level in your home a sudden priority. Finding the most quiet dishwasher for your needs can make a huge difference to your home if you:
- Have Open-plan Living Areas: Modern home design favors an open-plan concept. Great for making a room look spacious, these blended spaces can make it difficult to work, enjoy a family movie night, or relax with noisy appliances in the background.
- Run Your Dishwasher at Night: Washing dishes at night is an efficient way to use your time and take advantage of off-peak power costs, but noisy dishwashers can be an issue when the family is trying to get a good night’s sleep.
- Have Small Children: Sleeping babies and small children need frequent naps and can be easily disturbed by noisy appliances.
- Work From Home: Remote work is an excellent way to be productive while keeping on top of your home, but when it's time for vital Zoom calls and telephone meetings, nobody wants their dishwasher sounds to be the star of the show.
Key Features to Look for in a Quiet Dishwasher
Shopping for the quietest dishwasher options is easy once you know what to look for. Below, we detail some key features customers want in a new quiet dishwasher.
- Decibel Rating: The standard way we measure noise level is by the number of decibels, which tells us how loud a noise is. Models with quiet dishwasher decibels (around 39-45dBA) have the same noise level as a quiet library and are barely noticeable in your home.
- Insulation and Build Quality: Stainless steel tubs and high-quality insulation materials drastically reduce dishwasher noise and vibration.
- Advanced Wash Systems: Premium dishwashers use precision jets, hard food disposal systems and advanced water heating technology to clean effectively while minimizing noise.
- Smart Technology: Allowing for smartphone notifications and remote control, you can operate high-tech models without making a noise or leaving the couch.
