Leaves clear film on dishes
Strengths: quiet
Weaknesses: Does not rinse well at all
Silverware container is way too big. If it were split in two pieces, we'd only use half of it and have room for an extra pot or bowls.
Summary: This is a repeat of my review of the P-series. This model is the same as the others in the P-series except for the stainless steel door.
My guess is that in order to qualify for Energy Star, Kitchenaid designed a machine that makes dishes look okay only with a chemical coating on them that the machine doesn't rinse off. The dishes don't really get rinsed. During the dry cycle, I can see soap cascading off the dishes. This has not turned out to be an energy saving dishwasher since I have to hand rinse and rub the dishes after they come out of the machine. Otherwise, running a finger across a dish leaves a film on my finger that feels something like dried soap. We really don't want to eat that stuff. I'm sure that it can't be good for us. I was having no problems with my 30-year-old dishwasher before this, but I replaced it to save energy. With all the extra handwashing, I am sure I am using way more energy. Others have had simlar problems with this machine. I'm disgusted with Kitchenaid's lack of ethics here.
