Pros: It looks good.

Cons: It doesn't work!

The Bottom Line: I don't recommend purchasing this or any Kitchen Aid product based on my experience.

Review: We purchased this model when we remodeled our kitchen several months ago and it has been out of service over half the time. We've had 8 service calls. They have taken it apart, ordered parts, ordered parts from the wrong place so they took a month...

Pros: Looks

Cons: Lower draw locks open Dishes do not get cleaned Runs long on any cycle

Review: Other then looks you should stay clear of this model. The lower draw continues to get locked in the open position. It seems there is a flap that comes down once the draw is closed to seal water out. This same flap at times gets stuck down preventing...
