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.

My dishes sparkle. Easy to use. Pretty quiet. Only suggestion would be to make the utensil holder bigger and to make the slots in it a bit larger. My fork and spoon handles don't fit through the slots.

Retired in Texas 7/19/2019
I purchased this DW several months ago and was immediately disappointed. It was using ¼ of the rinse aid reservoir with each wash and the dishes were coming out dirty and wet. I had 3 service technicians come out. The first replaced the rinse aid dispenser which resolved that issue however, all 3 technicians told me that due to new energy requirements I should not expect my new DW to clean or dry dishes. They said that these newer dishwashers use less water at less force with a longer cycle to basically "soak" the dishes clean. I was told that what I thought was a heating element for the dry cycle was actually to heat the water for the sani-rinse cycle and unlike the older dishwashers with heated dry, this DW has no heating element for drying and uses rinse aid to make the dishes shed water instead of drying them. There are literally beads of water on my silverware and dishes along with the entire interior of the dishwasher itself when I open the door. I have to clean the dishes thoroughly by hand before I put them into the dishwasher and then open the door once the cycle is over and allow them to air dry for a couple of hours. Sometimes the dishes are dirtier after the wash than when I load them. Wish I had kept the DW I bought in 2008 and bought new racks….that was all it needed. It was a Whirlpool and it washed and dried quite well but not this one. A better investment would be a dishpan and dish drainer.

Purchased about a month ago replacing our 14 year old model. Everything seems to work as expected. One comment: I was early taught to remove silverware by its handle and not by the area which goes into one's mouth. Closing the lid of the silverware basket defeats that recommendation. If I could easily remove the lids, I would. But for now I just keep the lids raised.

Roxy200 6/23/2019
My high end $1300 dishwasher from a different manufacturer suddenly died after less than 4 years of careful use. I was sad and frustrated too at this big loss. Expensive appliances should last more.
After extensive research on the internet and exploring hundreds of reviews on different websites, I selected Whirlpool WDF540PADM (stainless steel) model. The looks and features are same as high end expensive dishwashers but price is just half of them. Working is perfect and I love the 1-hr wash cycle. Habit of placing dirty dishes in the dish washer after a light rinse in the sink will increase the life and efficiency of your dish washer. 1-hr wash cycle will be enough to get your dishes sparkling clean.
This dish washer has stainless steel door but inner tub is made of plastic. It's quiet, lots of room inside and looks classy. I am extremely happy with my purchase. Highly recommended.

Since there was an issue with installation, due to my kitchen floor, I had to wait an additional week from delivery, for installation to be completed. So I am just now getting to try the different features on my new dishwasher.
So far, I am happy with the dishwasher. It is really quieter than I expected. Having not had an opportunity to try the various wash cycles etc, theres not much else to say. (Unfortunately, your rating survey forces me to answer things that I do not know about yet) I would have skipped sever al of the ratings if I could.
Check back with me in a few months and I will be able to give you a more thorough review.

We bought this on the reputation of Whirlpool, and so far, it is ok. I find the silverware basket to be a bit small, and we don't use it as recommended--with the using end pointing up instead of the handle.
We're also not liking the filter that needs to be cleaned out; previous one had a small garbage disposal built in that took care of "stuff."

The dishwasher works well. I had to replace my 19 yr. old dishwasher which I loved that had a large capacity and worked great; but after 19 yrs. it just got tired and wasn't washing dishes well any more. My new one has different spacing for dishes and does not seem to hold as many dishes. I really miss the two side shelves you could fold down on top rack that would hold your large utensils or large sharpe knives that I now wash by hand. The model I have does not have the large shelf/rack that it shows on top of the cups on top rack. Would also like to have had a larger utensil basket. Would prefer door to have a more affirmative lock so you know it is shut tightly. Really disappointed that this machine does not come with a garburator and you have to clean the filters in it instead.

I really like this dishwasher. It wasn't overly expensive, comes in white so it matches my other Whirlpool appliances, and is SO SO QUIET!! You hardly hear it running. Does a very nice job cleaning the dishes and has a movable silverware rack. Very nice and flexible for filling with whatever you have to wash that day. Controls are easy to use and understand. The downside? It takes roughly 2-1/2 hours to run the entire cycle. Not fast, but dependable and nice looking.

I had to replace a Maytag dishwasher that was only 2 years old. The Maytag had lots of bells and whistles. I have since discovered that those aren't necessary. My Whirlpool is a good steady machine, that gets my dishes clean. that's really all i needed. Thanks for making a reasonably priced model that does what it is supposed to do.

I bought this dishwasher a couple of weeks ago. I am delighted with it. I did dishes from 5 people for a big dinner- roast beef and yorkshire pudding- i even made gravy in the beef pan--and put the muffin tin that I made the yorkshire in dishwasher- did not rinse or scrape either. I love it! Only issue that i did have was the door mounted fork and knife holder-but it also fits on the left side of the dishwasher which is where keep it
