Amana Tall Tub Dishwasher, ADB1400PYS, Stainless
not as good as it's rated
i purchased this unit on the recommendations of Amazon user reviews and from another site. For four hundred bucks i guess i shouldn't have expected much. It didn't have the features of the one it replaced, but I wasn't looking for a full-featured machine as I never used many of them anyway. Right away, as soon as i installed it, I noticed that it seems smaller than my old one- maybe it is, but not by much, but it is noticeable. Once hooked up, (and checked for leaks), we ran it through a cycle and there is water and suds all over the floor. Upon further investigation, placing my hand up inside the door, the insulation is all wet. Great.
Doing more investigative work by running the unit again, produced no leaks, but the dishes were filmy and not at all clean. running the unit again on a high temp wash took care of the film, but this unit seems not to want to fully clean a dish- something the old unit did without a problem. Thinking I had solved the leaking problem, I continue to...
Amazing for the money!
We love this dishwasher! It is very quiet, and does the job! We were debating buying a Bosch, but got worried about all the comments about rust and drying. Boy are glad we chose the lower priced unit! And our retailer had it to us in a few days! Could not be happier!
i wish it was bigger
This dishwasher is small on the inside and i am not able to put as many dishes in it as an old dishwasher at my apartment. The first time I used this product, it left food product on some of the dishes and that was after I rinsed them. I did not have the same problem on second and third washes so I'm not sure what the problem was. Overall it is a decent product for the price but small. I am single and I think it is small so if you have a family getting a bigger unit would be ideal.

Product Features
Additional Features
ENERGY STAR Qualified
Save money while conserving energy. These dishwashers meet 2012 ENERGY STAR guidelines for energy efficiency.
Twice as Nice Silverware Baskets
Pick a place. Whether you put these two silverware baskets in the front, on the sides, or in the back of the lower rack, your utensils will receive an ideal dose of clean.
Tall Tub Interior
Fill tall orders. This tub provides room for items that are too big to fit in a standard dishwasher tub.
Triple Filter Wash System
The Triple Filter Wash System uses three filters—a filter screen, coarse filter, and micro-fine filter cup—to capture food during the wash process to keep dishes clean.
Antimicrobial Component Protection
Built in during the manufacturing process, antimicrobial component protection helps inhibit the growth of stain- and odor-causing bacteria on the silverware baskets.
High Temperature Wash Option
Turn up the heat. With the High Temperature Wash option, a heater boosts the water temperature during the wash cycle, and an extra rinse is added for enhanced cleaning and drying.
- 3 cycles, 4 options
- Heated Dry Option
Leave the dishtowel on the rack. An internal heater removes excess moisture so your dishes can go straight to the cupboard, no towel required. - Heavy Wash Cycle
Sick of scrubbing? This cycle provides heavily soiled items with a longer, more thorough soaking to scour away grungy messes. - Normal Wash Cycle
This cycle works great when you need a little extra attention but your dish loads don't. Ideal for all-purpose cleaning. - Rinse Aid Dispenser
Automatically adds a measured amount during the wash cycle to reduce the potential for spots on your dishes, and give you one less thing to worry about. - SofSound I Quiet Package — 59 dBA
The SofSound I quiet package ensures the dishwasher won't interrupt your life. Too bad it won't work for telemarketers. - Electronic Console
Provides a stylish, refined console design that's at home in any kitchen. Flat controls keep cycle selection simple and your kitchen looking sleek. - Delay Start Option
Wash when you want to! Set the dishwasher to run, even if you're off and running. Or, save money by setting it to run during off-peak energy use hours. - Soil sensor
You know that baked-on pizza sauce probably needs more elbow grease. The dishwasher knows, too, thanks to the soil sensor, and adjusts wash time based on dish soil levels. - Control Lockout
Locks the controls so little fingers can't turn on the dishwasher.

Things to Consider
Tip #1
Measure the space for a new dishwasher as well as any doorways or hallways the appliances must fit through.
Tip #2
Now might be the perfect time to add a garbage disposal in your kitchen, since a plumber and electrician may be there to install the dishwasher.
Tip #3
Power supply cord must plug into a grounded three-prong outlet, located in the cabinet next to the dishwasher opening. Outlet must meet all local codes and ordinances.
Tip #4
Be sure to disconnect electrical power at the fuse box or circuit breaker box before installing your new dishwasher. Also, shut off the water supply.
