The 7 Coolest Dishwasher Features

by Waverly Wilde

Unless you eat out all the time, you probably use a lot of dishes throughout the day. And since the COVID-19 pandemic began earlier this year, you may be spending even more time in the house, eating in, and making a whole lot of dirty dishes. Managing all that can be hectic and feel overwhelming which is why having the right dishwasher features to support you during this crisis – but anytime really – can help lighten the load of stress. 

We’ve picked out some of the coolest and best dishwasher features available that are sure to wash your dishes more efficiently, so you won’t have to. If you happen to be in the market for a new dishwasher, explore these innovative features to find the one that will really complement your lifestyle.

1. Ultra-Quiet

Dishwashers have never been especially quiet machines – until recent years! So, if you struggle with an obnoxiously loud and distracting dishwasher, we want you to know there is hope out there to regain your peace! With the help of 18 sound reducing technologies, Bosch dishwasher boasts the quietest dishwasher in the entire United States! 

No more holding off on starting the dishwasher so you don’t have to listen to it – not when it’s a 42-dBA making it barely as loud as a whisper! Get those serene evenings back to yourself and enjoy a film favorite without the sloshing commotion disturbing your movie night.

2. Energy Star Certified

If you’ve been racking your brain for a way to be more energy-efficient, starting with your dishwasher is a great first step. By going with an Energy Star dishwasher, you’ll start saving money, water, and energy without skimping on quality. This U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) approved appliance ensures that it has met strict standards and has been awarded the Energy Star certified award proving that it is highly energy-efficient. Let an Energy Star dishwasher, like this Frigidaire dishwasher, change the way you do the dishes so you can help change the world.

3. Portable

Whether you live in an apartment, traveling in a camper van, or just have a small kitchen, sometimes there just isn’t enough room for a conventional dishwasher. Sometimes you’ll need something a little more portable for your life, and that’s perfectly fine! For these special situations, we have portable dishwashers which will give you all the power of a normal dishwasher with the mobility to be wheeled in and out when needed. Just roll it out over to the sink to set it up and when you’re done, send it on back to the storage area.

4. Wi-Fi Enabled

If you could use a little more convenience in your life, a smart Wi-Fi dishwasher will make that happen. Now you’ll able to stay connected through your mobile device so you know exactly how your dishwasher is doing every step of the way. This Wi-Fi connected GE dishwasher will help you monitor the performance of your dishwasher’s cycle, check rinse aid levels, and automatically reorder detergent all by using your phone! 

5. Fast Wash Cycle

Hosting parties means making sure that there is always clean glassware for your guests to use. But, when you start to run out and used glasses are piling in the sink, it’s time to start a new dishwasher cycle and resupply! Luckily, many dishwashers are equipped with some sort of fast wash cycle feature that will thoroughly wash and sanitize your dishes in just a short amount of time. This Frigidaire Gallery dishwasher works hard to wash away stuck-on food in only 34 minutes so you can be sure no one at the party is ever empty handed!  

6. Sensor Clean

Don’t you hate it when you go to unload your dishes from the dishwasher racks and notice there is still food stuck on your silverware, plates, and other dishware? Stop this from ever happening again with the help of the Sensor Cycle feature! This nifty option will ensure your load gets the correct wash and dry settings as two sensors measure the temperature, soil level, and load size during a wash cycle. Never overwash your dishes again!

7. Sanitize

These days, making sure things are sanitized properly could be a matter of life and death. A dishwasher with a sanitize option, like this KitchenAid dishwasher, makes sure everything gets sanitized with hot, 155 degree water so that 99.99% of germs and bacteria are eliminated!
