I really couldn’t be without one of the best dishwashers to lighten my load. And right now, you can make a big saving on a Whirlpool dishwasher, which happens to be the best budget dishwasher I recommend in our buying guide.

You can now save $221 on Whirlpool’s 24-inch integrated dishwasher, paying just $458 at AJ Madison, with a 32% discount.
What’s more, Whirlpool’s dishwasher gains an average of 4.2 stars out of 3,138 reviews on AJ Madison’s website.

Whirlpool 24-inch Integrated Dishwash (WDP540HAMZ): was $679 now $458 at AJ Madison
This 24-inch integrated dishwasher has 12 place settings, two racks and five wash cycles. Plus, it’s quiet to run with a silence rating of 55 dBA. It also features a Triple Filtration Wash System to filter food particles.

What do you get for your dollars?

Why you can trust Tom’s Guide

Our writers and editors spend hours analyzing and reviewing products, services, and apps to help find what’s best for you. Find out more about how we test, analyze, and rate.

Whirlpool’s WDP540HAMZ built-in dishwasher comes in stainless steel, white, and black, although the stainless version is the only one reduced by 32%. However, you can still save 11% on the white and black colorways.

It has 12 place settings, making it suitable for a small family, and it has five wash cycles, providing all the settings you need. Select from Boost, Extended Soak, Heavy, Normal, and Quick Wash, and two dry options, including Heated Dry.
The design of the internal tub is spacious, with plenty of room in the lower rack for taller items. It also has a neat cutlery basket design that sits flat against the side of the rack, making it much easier to load than if it were placed in the middle. It also features three 5-inch cup shelves that fit six additional cups or small bowls, to free up space in the rack below, which fold down when not in use.
The Triple Filtration Wash System utilizes a coarse filter to capture large food particles, a fine filter to catch medium particles, and a micro-fine filter to capture small particles. All meaning you don’t need to worry about pre-rinsing your dishes.
If you’re looking for a reliable dishwasher that doesn’t have extra bells and whistles or smart features, this Whirlpool appliance is a good buy at an exceptionally handsome price.
