#SEARS STAINLESS STEEL DISHWASHER FULL#

Top Rack Only and Bottom Rack Only lets you wash half a load without using as many resources, and a Delay that can be set for up to 24 hours will start the machine during off-peak hours, potentially cutting electricity costs. Our tests found that the 14793 uses an average amount of power and water under its default settings, but this dishwasher actually offers many ways to squeeze a bit more efficiency out of it.

This dishwasher also has the flexible, soil sensor-based Smart Wash cycle, China Gentle to for delicate dishes, and Quick Rinse to spray and refresh old dishes or keep a load from smelling bad before you’re ready to run a full cycle. On the 14793, Normal Wash, Pots & Pans, and Express Wash cover the three most common dishwashing needs. Thankfully, they can be folded out of the way. However, both of these extras feel cheaper and flimsier than the rest of the rack, and you’re not likely to get much use out of them without sacrificing space for mugs and glasses. The upper rack glides out smoothly and has a pair of stemware holders and a fold-down cup shelf. We found room for 11 standard place settings and a single serving setting inside the 14793. Chances are when this Kenmore inevitably goes on sale, you’ll be getting your money’s worth. However, the three-piece cutlery basket offers maximum flexibility when it comes to loading silverware, and the upper rack has a height adjustment mechanism.

There’s no third rack, for instance, and there aren’t too many collapsible tines to be found. A staunch minimalist might take issue with the blatant Kenmore Elite emblem on the front, but it won’t be a problem for buyers who already have other Elite appliances in their kitchen.įor its MSRP, this Elite feels a bit lacking when it comes to loading features.

The rest of the body, inside and out, is stainless steel. Those who want a clean exterior are in luck, because this Kenmore’s control panel is hidden on top of the door. They all combine to make sure every dish gets a healthy dose of water. And the TurboZone high-intensity spray jets at the back of the tub blast stains off serving dishes, pots, and pans. The row of jets lining the walls are aimed at glassware on the top rack. The 360° PowerWash spray arm dominating the bottom of the tub can spin both clockwise and counterclockwise for optimal coverage. If you could crawl inside the 14793, it would be like stepping into a water park. Design & Usability Water jets everywhere. However, we've seen it on sale for as low as $1,169, so keep an eye out for sharp discounts. It doesn’t offer quite as many interior perks as other high-end dishwashers, such as a third rack or interior lights. Dishes came out very clean, superior filtration washed away food scraps, and water and power usage were at average levels. Our lab tests found that the waterworks aren't just for show, either. The new TurboZone Reach high-intensity sprayers and wall-mounted jets combine with the unique 360° PowerWash spray arm to provide total, complete water coverage. If you prioritize substance over style, put this Kenmore dishwasher at the top of your short list.With its race car red accents, this dishwasher’s interior aesthetics give a sense of ambition, competence, and power. Where it matters most, though, this Kenmore shines. The drawbacks to this budget friendly Kenmore aren't negligible - especially not the plastic tub or the lack of wine stem holders. This Kenmore is also easier to use and has more features than our current cleaning champion - the $800 Bosch SHS63VL5UC. It out-cleaned the GE GDF610PMJES as well as a few dishwashers that cost more than a $1,000. I would certainly call the Kenmore 13699 effective. So if you rinse or scrape your dishes anyway, the $600 GE GDF610PMJES has a sleek Slate finish and a few more features. I wouldn't call the $700 Kenmore 13699 stylish, quiet or fast. The Kenmore 13699 is a reasonably priced dishwasher that's great at cleaning, has a good variety of cycles and is easy to load. The $800 Bosch SHS63VL5UC still holds that title, but this Kenmore came close.

Kenmore's a little noisier than premium dishwashers but it pairs great cleaning performance with fine drying capability.
