The top 3D cutlery tray keeps flatware from nesting for better cleaning and holds small bowls, utensils and ramekins too. This dishwasher is very easy to load with its adjustable racks and shelves, fold-down tines and padded stemware grips. If you prefer to add your own detergent to each load, you can do that instead. It dispenses the correct amount of powder detergent for the cycle you've selected based on the soil level of your load and lasts for up to 20 washes.

Unique to Miele is its AutoDos system that works with Miele’s PowerDisk. In our tests, we found it lives up to Miele's reputation when it comes to cleaning and is loaded with features that make it easy to use, both of which also helped it earn our Good Housekeeping Seal. Miele is well known for its well-designed, great cleaning appliances and this dishwasher with its hidden top controls is no exception. We've experienced typical dishwasher frustrations firsthand and know a great model when we find it. We also calculate how many items each dishwasher holds, assess water and energy use, determine how easy the racks are to load and monitor how thorough the drying cycle is. In our last test alone, we spent four months (and over 374 hours) testing 17 dishwashers. In the last five years, we've tested over 35 dishwashers by meticulously soiling plates, bowls, cups and saucers, glassware, cookware and more. Whether they are full-size models or countertop dishwashers, we're constantly testing and using them daily to find which ones perform best and are easiest to use. If not, it's time to go shopping for a new model.Īt the Good Housekeeping Institute Home Care and Cleaning Lab, we receive new dishwasher models all the time. As long as you are doing your part by loading it correctly, cleaning it regularly and using the best dishwasher detergent, your dishwasher should be doing all the heavy lifting when it comes to cleaning up after a meal.

When it's not up to the job, it's a daily annoyance of pre-washing (and re-washing!) items you could have more quickly washed by hand. Technically, you could get away without having a dishwasher, but who wants to? And you certainly shouldn't have to settle for one that provides sub-par performance by leaving food specks on dishes, spots on glasses and everything in the load dripping wet at the end of the cycle.
