The Best Stainless Steel Dishwashers of 2022

If you're looking for a model with strong cleaning power, the ability to dry dishes every time, and ADA accessibility features, theBosch 800 Series SGX78B55UC/13is one of the best options available. We found it scrubs out stains with the best of them, within relatively short cycle times. It also improves upon Bosch's already excellent CrystalDry technology, and in our testing it was able to get every dish perfectly dry on every cycle.

When it comes to features, the SGX78B55UC/13 comes fully loaded, with a third rack, adjustable upper rack, and foldable tines in its lower rack, in addition to Bosch's suite of smart features. What's more is this model is ADA-compliant, which means it has enhanced accessibility features—it's also a bit smaller physically, so keep that in mind if your cabinetry is designed for a standard-sized dishwasher. Overall, this is an excellent dishwasher and we're happy to see the SGX78B55UC/13 bring all these Series benefits to the table without sacrificing any performance over the other 800 series models.

TheBosch 800 Series SHPM88Z75N(2019) is everything we've come to expect from Bosch—quiet, efficient, and stylish. With a sound rating of 40 dBA, it's one of the quietest dishwashers that's ever come through our labs. This dishwasher did an amazing job removing some of our more difficult stains, like burnt-on cheese and spinach; however, as is the case with most dishwashers, the spinach that got blasted off of our test dishes was occasionally redeposited onto other dishes.

The major selling point of the SHPM88Z75N is its CrystalDry feature. Usingzeolitecrystals, this dishwasher completely dries all of your dishes—even the plasticware that always seems to need a couple of passes with a dish towel before you can put it away. If your primary method of storing food is withplastic food storage containers, the SHPM88Z75N will save you a lot of extra time and effort when it comes to getting your dishes clean and dry.

TheSamsung DW80R9950UTdishwasher has it all. With a third rack deep enough to hold ladles and whisks (in addition to all of your silverware), adjustable tines that will make fitting even the most awkwardly-shaped dishes a breeze, a futuristic-looking control panel, and a fingerprint-resistant stainless steel finish, this dishwasher has enough features to please even the pickiest of dishwasher users.

Even better, the Samsung DW80R9950UT talks and talkandwalks the walk: Its cleaning performance is top-notch. The Normal, Quick, and Heavy cycles were all able to remove more than 97% of our test food stains. The Heavy cycle clocks in at about 2.5 hours, so you won't have to do too much waiting around; some Heavy cycles on other dishwashers take as long as four hours to finish. This dishwasher also has minimal spinach redeposit and near-perfect dish drying. For a user-friendly dishwasher with an outstanding cleaning performance, you can't go wrong with the Samsung DW80R9950UT.

从设计到性能,这种全新的dishwasher is all about fluidity and grace. Perhaps most importantly, it's equipped with KitchenAid’s Clean Water Wash technology, which continually removes food particles from the wash water. That means theKitchenAid KDTM354DSShelps clean dishes to actually stay clean by not spraying food removed from one dish onto another dish. Even with this new feature, it's still one of the more efficient dishwashers we've ever tested, with respect to both water and electricity usage.

With a solid cleaning performance, heating drying, and additional spray jets for really tough stains, the KDTM354DSS is a workhorse that can get the job done right the first time.

Based on our reviews of other Bosch dishwashers, it’s not surprising that we also love theBosch 500 series SHPM65Z55Ndishwasher. While it’s still on the pricier end of what you might want to pay for a dishwasher, you’re getting a lot of bang for your bucket. With Its quiet operation (44 dBA), adjustable tines, and third rack, you’ll be able to wash many different sizes and types of dishes without worrying about loud noises disrupting your conversation during a dishwasher cycle.

洗碗机周期有点长(the Quick cycle clocks in at about an hour), but the cleaning results are worth it. This dishwasher removed nearly all of the stains from our test dishes during the Heavy cycle, which is a rare feat. Additionally, the Auto Air function, which opens the dishwasher door after a cycle has ended to expedite dish drying, is pretty effective; almost every test dish in the Normal and Quick cycles came out bone dry. If you want a Bosch dishwasher but don’t have the budget for a dishwasher in theBosch 800 series, the Bosch 500 series SHPM65Z55N is a great option.

As far as dishwashers go, theKitchenAid KDPM804KBS抓住了look and feel of a premium appliance. It boasts a huge list of features that all add to the overall user experience: a third rack, adjustable tines, stemware holders, multiple cutlery baskets, and an internal LED, all wrapped up in fingerprint-resistant stainless steel.

In terms of cleaning performance, the KDPM804KBS does a decent job, but its marks weren’t high enough to separate it form the middle of the pack.

If you really like the look of this dishwasher and find its feature set useful, you might find it’s worth its high asking price—it just wouldn’t be the first dishwasher we’d recommend to bargain hunters.

The Bosch 300 Series continues to offer the same sleek look, quiet operation, and incredible cleaning prowess that Bosch is known for. We tested the Bosch SHSM63W55N and theBosch SHXM63WS5N, both of which removed nearly 100 percent of the stains on the Heavy cycle, an amazing feat which happens rarely in our test labs.

On top of that, this dishwasher also has a third rack, foldable tines, an adjustable upper rack, solid drying, and an optional water softener. This dishwasher is worth every cent.

TheKitchenAid KDTM404KPSis a dishwasher that is tailor-made for big families. It can hold up to 16 place settings, about two more than average. Part of the reason it can hold so many plates is because of the unique third rack, which has a deep divot that can hold small bowls, cups, and mugs. The third rack even has rotating spray jets to ensure everything gets clean up there.

Good stain removal is not just limited to the third rack. Our testing showed that the Normal and Tough cycle did an excellent job removing stains. The only major downsides we found were that the Express cycle is slow compared to the competition.

The no-frillsHisense HUI6220XCUSoffers exemplary performance at a budget-friendly price.

It has a 15-minute Quick cycle—one of the fastest Quick cycles we’ve ever tested—for fast turn over, and a Sanitize cycle for baby bottles and gross plastic toys. While it doesn’t have features like bottle jets or a third rack, it does offer high-powered cleaning capabilities. It is also good for families.

Problems exhibited by the HUI6220XCUS are minor: unintuitive press-and-hold controls and a cutlery basket that attracts food redeposit. Still, at its price it’s hard to score a better value deal.

TheGE Café CDT875M5NS5is a gorgeous upmarket appliance that dazzles with its Platinum Glass finish. Its cleaning quality was excellent overall, but we did see some inconsistencies where certain stains just weren’t getting cleaned well.

While the rest of this dishwasher’s performance and its expansive feature set still makes the CDT875M5NS5 a good pick for anyone whose budget isn’t broken by its price tag, at this price point the level of competition is very high: Most of the dishwashers listed above have even better performance at a lower price (though they might not look quite so sleek).
