How we chose the best dishwasher brands

Here are just some of the factors we considered when choosing the top dishwasher brands in 2024:

  • Price
  • Reliability
  • Features
  • Customer ratings
  • Warranties

While we certainly recommend the brands above and stand by these choices, we still encourage you to do a bit of research yourself before choosing a particular model. Even if the brand is reliable, you might be able to find a better deal or more capable system at a reasonable price by shopping around. Don’t just consider the brand in question but also the retailers — Best Buy might have better prices than The Home Depot, for example.

Since dishwashers should last you for quite some time — a good system will, anyway — you’ll also want to look for warranties that extend coverage beyond the usual one or two years. If that’s not available directly from the manufacturer, you might consider purchasing a third-party plan that covers any issues you might have years down the line. Some of the most common dishwasher problems can be fixed yourself, but because they do last so long, you want a warranty that’s going to cover those later years.

Also, as a quick closing note. You should stop rinsing your dishes before you load them into the dishwasher. They work better when you don’t.

Although these two powerful and intelligent smart vacuums include a host of new innovative features, there's something else that's bigger and more awe-inspiring. Keeping up with that idea of "cleaning beyond limits," the S8 series has also achieved something spectacular related to space. Yes, outer space. In August 2024, the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra was launched into the upper stratosphere, becoming the first-ever smart vacuum in outer space.
