Great Addition to the Family

I searched and searched for just the right dishwaser. I needed a portable one because my 8 year old house was not fit for one, believe it or not. I chose this one because it was a decent price for a 24", portable, good reviews and could be converted to a built in if we ever decide to fit it in. I was... review »

Not quiet as website claims

I bought this model for my mother in Jan. 08. Even though the website claims this model has the "quiet package", I assure you, this thing is LOUD! There is no insulation at all. Another issue we had is that the motor needs to be replaced. After many calls to Sears (24 people were spoken with over the... review »

Best portable dishwasher we've ever owned

MAY

2008
If you're expecting the same features and quiet performance of a $1200 built-in dishwasher, you're probably going to be disappointed. But this Kenmore 17702 is by far the best portable dishwasher we've owned. It has features found on more expensive machines (such as an exposed heating element), a very nice laminated butcher block top, it rolls like silk across our linoleum floor, the faucet connector is effortless, and most importantly our dishes & glassware come out absolutely sparkling (and too hot to hold!). Just an excellent all-around performer. Some people might fault this model for not... review »

Have owned this dishwasher for about a month and love it. It does a very good job and is not as loud as what I feared it would be. Rolls very easily and makes for a great island countertop work station.

Great Dishwasher!

MAR

2009
We have owned this dishwasher for about 2 months now, and it is wonderful. After researching dishwashers for several weeks, this one came out on top time and time again in the reviews, and it has proven itself in my kitchen. One unique feature worth mentioning is that the sides are black, most of the similar models we found may have had a black front, but often had non-black sides. Obviously there are more expensive dishwashers with bells and whistles, but for an overall great value without being bottom of the barrel...This is the one you want!

Excellent dishwasher

JUL

2008
I've had mine about a year now with no problems. I does an excellent job cleaning dishes (you do have to stack them for good water access, as with any dishwasher). It is a bit louder than most, but if you're forced to buy a portable, that should be far less a concern than freedom from washing dishes by hand. The noise is still not severe and is comparable to some built-in models. My mother has an earlier version of this same model and has had no problems with it for about 10 years now. Excellent appliance and well worth the money.

Finally!

I've spent 15 years thinking about getting a dishwasher, and I'm so happy that I finally bought this one! I'm a diligent hand washer, but my dishes seem so much cleaner and brighter out of the dishwasher! Don't wait any longer; buy this and you'll be very happy!

All of the faucet attachments came with the dishwasher. It's a water miser, too. Works great!! Owned for 2 months.

Nice for the price!

I have a very small kitchen with no counterspace so instead of redoing my whole kitchen to put in a built in dishwasher, we bought a portable one. I chose this one for two reason, 1. it was a good price 2. it didn't take up too much space in my kitchen. I did read some of the other reviews on other brands at other stores but I liked the simplicity of this one the best. It doesn't have all the fancy bells and whistles as some of the others but it does it's job and does it well. The only issue I had was that I had to switch to the Pots and Pans wash cycle to really get all the small stuck on bits... review »

Goodbye Dishpan Hands!

FEB
25
2009
This dishwasher is a god-send. I ordered it and had it delivered in less than a 5 days. I have used it a half dozen times and it rocks! Dishes come out clean and mostly dry (as with other dishwashers), it is easy to hook-up and unhook, and the solid butcher block countertop is a great place to stack dishes as I'm unloading. When not in use, the dishwasher easily rolls out of the way. And, should I ever decide to install it, I can do so for less than $100. My husband agress - I should have bought this years ago!

I bought this dishwasher about a year ago and it has changed my life. Literally, I never new what i was missing. I have an older home so I had to buy a portable dishwasher and it's only disadvantage is it is kinda noisy but I honestly expect that with a portable. Otherwise this is an excellant dishwasher and it has helped me out tremendously.

A terrific choice...
an appliance snob

AUG

2009

After a long and detailed investigation of portable dishwashers, I settled on the 24" Kenmore Portable Dishwasher as my choice.  I couldn't be happier.  The machine works very well and it's quieter than my old Whirlpool portable was.  Tall knives and cooking utensils don't fit vertically in the silverware rack but that applies to almost all dishwashers on the market so this is not a minus for me.  I've had the unit for three weeks now and I couldn't be happier.

too much for too little

MAR

I must say the dishwasher is beautiful and makes a wonderful kitchen accent. It has very sturdy frame and build. Otherwise, the quality is not what I've come to expect from Kenmore. While it has great features/options they just don't work. Rinsed dishes and glasses remain dirty after a complete cycle or two. To use diswashing tabs they must be broken in half or water remains too sudsy (I've tried 3 brands) which is only resolved by a complete re-washing. I believe the problem comes from the drain not being low enough to extract the sudsy water. The manual does not say but it must be level,... review »

Can't beat a Kenmore

MAY
15
2007
We bought this model TEN years ago. It is still running strong. The only part we've had to replace was the part that hooks up to the faucet, as the original part started leaking (into the sink) while running. The only complaint I have is my dissapointment in the soft food disposal feature. It never worked efficiently. Dishes still need to be well rinsed before placing in unit for washing. Otherwise some food particles can get plastered on other items inside. But for the price, this has been a great appliance.
