Whirlpool 24" White Built-in Dishwasher - WDTA50SAKW2

This is a 24-inch built-in dishwasher from Whirlpool, offering efficient and quiet dishwashing capabilities. It's designed to integrate smoothly into your kitchen cabinetry with its hidden controls and a classic white finish.

Key Characteristics:

• Type: Built-in Dishwasher, meaning it's installed permanently under your kitchen counter.

• Size: Standard 24-inch width, fitting common dishwasher openings.

• Finish: Features a clean white finish on the door and exterior.

• Controls: Has fully integrated (top) controls. The electronic touch buttons are located on the top edge of the door, completely hidden from view when the door is closed, providing a seamless and clean look.

• Tub Material: The interior tub is made of durable stainless steel. This premium material resists odors and stains and helps in the drying process by retaining heat.

• Capacity: It's rated for 13 place settings, providing ample space for typical household dish loads.

• Sound Level: Operates quietly, typically at 47 decibels (dBA). This allows for normal conversation in the kitchen without significant disruption.

Washing System & Performance Features:

• Sensor Cycle: This intelligent cycle uses sensors to detect how dirty your dishes are. It then automatically adjusts the wash action, water temperature, and cycle time to ensure a thorough clean for each load.

• Wash Cycles: Offers a selection of 5 wash cycles, including:

  • Heavy for tough messes.

  • Normal for everyday dishes.

  • Quick Wash for fast cleaning in about an hour.

  • A Sensor Wash option.

  • A "Soak & Clean" cycle for dissolving stuck-on food.

• Wash Options: Includes several common options:

  • Hi Temp Wash: Increases the water temperature to help tackle stubborn grease and food grime.

  • Sani Rinse®: Provides a high-temperature final rinse (certified) to sanitize dishes, eliminating a high percentage of food-based bacteria.

  • Heated Dry: Uses a heating element to assist in drying dishes.

  • Extended Dry: Provides additional drying time for more thorough results.

  • Delay Start: Allows you to program the dishwasher to begin its cycle at a later time (e.g., 1-24 hours).

• Automatic Temperature Controls: The dishwasher automatically maintains optimal wash temperatures throughout the cycle.

• Filtration System: Features a removable filter system inside to trap food particles, which needs occasional manual cleaning.

• Wash Arms: Utilizes multiple wash arms (typically three) to ensure comprehensive water coverage and thorough cleaning.

Drying Features:

• Heated Dry: Employs a heating element to dry dishes. For optimal drying results, especially with plastics, using rinse aid is recommended.

• Extended Dry Option: Available for loads that require more drying time.

Racks and Loading Flexibility:

• Third Rack: Includes a dedicated third rack at the very top. This provides extra space for silverware, long utensils (like tongs), and small items (like measuring cups), freeing up space in the main racks below.

• Adjustable Second Rack: The middle rack can be easily adjusted to two different height positions. This allows you to fit taller items (like water bottles) in either the top or bottom rack as needed.

• Fold-Down Tines: Features fold-down tines on both the lower rack and a row on the second level rack. This provides flexibility to load larger or awkwardly shaped dishes and cookware.

• Silverware Basket: Includes a versatile, three-piece silverware basket that can be separated or moved for extra space in the lower rack.

Convenience and Other Features:

• Electronic Controls with Display: The hidden control panel has touch-sensitive buttons and a digital display that shows cycle progress and remaining time.

• Status Light: A light on the front indicates the cycle progress (e.g., wash, dry, clean).

• End of Cycle Signal: An audible alert notifies you when the wash is complete.

• Rinse Aid Indicator: Alerts you when the rinse aid dispenser needs refilling.

This Whirlpool dishwasher is a reliable and quiet appliance, offering a good balance of cleaning performance, effective drying, and flexible loading options for everyday household needs in a classic white finish.
