Overview
Whirlpool builds this top control dishwasher to install under a counter, with touch controls along the upper edge of the door and a white front. Cycles run from quick washes to heavy loads, an extended soak handles dried food, and cup shelves add room for small items.
Soak and boost cycles target baked-on food, which matters more day to day than extra features. Specs stop at the basics, with no tub material, drying system or energy use listed. White is the only finish here.
Who it's for
Homeowners swapping out a worn under-counter machine get standard cycles plus soak and boost for heavy cookware. Shoppers who rank energy ratings and tub material should look for a listing with fuller specs.
Pros and cons
- Extended soak for dried-on food
- Boost cycle for heavy soil
- Quick wash for lightly used dishes
- Cup shelves add room for small items
- Tub and rack material not listed
- No smart or app features
- Install and hookup parts not included
- White finish only
Performance notes
Cleaning depends on cycle choice and how the load faces the spray, so the soak and heavy cycles matter most for baked-on food. The boost option adds intensity for stubborn soil, though the listing does not say how. Drying method is not listed, so drying results cannot be judged from the specs.
