Whirlpool DU1301XTV Review
This low-priced option gets raves for some high-quality features, such as the Auto Soil Sensor, which senses how big the load is and how dirty the dishes are. A flatware basket that fits in the door lets users free up real estate for larger dishes.
Users posting Whirlpool DU1301XTV reviews at Sears love this dishwasher for its quiet efficiency. One says in a Whirlpool DU1301XTV review at Sears that after one wash in the new dishwasher her glasses came out cleaner than they were in the first place. Another consumer who posted a Whirlpool DU1301XTV review at Sears says the dishwasher works as well as the far more expensive model it replaced.
Many consumers posting Whirlpool DU1301XTV reviews at Sears comment on the fact that the silverware basket can fit in the door, freeing up valuable real estate on the bottom rack. However, some users, including one who posted a Whirlpool DU1301XTV review at Epinions, find it awkward.
The Auto Soil feature selects a cycle automatically based on how dirty the dishes are in any given load. Other options to choose from include a light cycle, a pot and pan cycle, and a sanitary rinse. While one user who posted a Whirlpool DU1301XTV review at Sears reports that washing can take three hours, another Sears customer says if you use the light cycle and turn off the heated dry option, your dishes will be done in about an hour.
According to Whirlpool DU1301XTV reviews at Sears, a handy consumer can install the machine in half an hour but may need a special fitting that doesn't come with the dishwasher. The Whirlpool DU1301XTV comes in white, black, stainless steel, and hard-to-find bisque. On the whole, this dishwasher earns superb reviews for its performance and value.
