When we test dishwashers, we get things dirty—very dirty.
For our most recent round of testing, we loaded a dozen dishwashers with piles of gunk-smeared dishes and ran more than a hundred cleaning cycles to find the best machines for the job.
Testing a dishwasher isn’t the same as running a load after a dinner party. Our assessments are designed to challenge a dishwasher and push it to its limits. (And no, we don’t prerinse the dishes.) Dishwashers have changed a lot over the years: From more-efficient filtration systems to more-sophisticated detergents, we consider it all. To create our test plan, we talk to industry experts, study dishwasher test protocols (like those of the Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers), and poll people about their top dishwasher frustrations. Then, we make a mess. Here’s a peek into the process.
