A custom clean, times five
Every load of dishes is unique. Sometimes the nastiest little bit of grime is little more than some ketchup on a plate, while other times you and your dishwasher face more formidable foes — yes, like the infamous so-charred-on-it's-no-longer-identifiable mass. Your new DU1055XTSQ dishwasher from Whirlpool not only sports a variety of wash options and cycles ideal for customizing every load to your dishes' needs, but it also features the SheerClean™ wash system. This five-level wash system attacks spots, stains and grime from five different angles, delivering a thorough, high-performance clean. And with a large 14-place-setting capacity, you can find a spot for that last gravy boat.
With Sani Rinse, there's no need to "repeat"
Let's be honest . . . when it comes to washing your dishes, a "clean-looking appearance" is not what's most important. No, your family's health is important to you, and so, you're primary concern is that your dishes are "healthy-clean". The days of wondering whether or not your dishes are as clean and healthy as they can be are over. The DU1055XTSQ's NSF-certified Sani Rinse option helps to eliminate up to 99.999% of food-soil bacteria by raising the final rinse temperature to 155°F. The National Sanitization Foundation (NSF) is an independent, not-for-profit, non-governmental organization that tests consumer products to ensure that they meet specific sanitation, design, and/or performance guidelines.
Be vewy vewy quiet, we're washing dishes
Well, if old Mr. Fudd ever does have his opportunity to dine upon rabbit one evening, chances are good that he'd appreciate a little quiet relaxation after his meal, free of the din of the dishwasher running. Reducing the sound of the washer operating to below the level of most common household sounds, a Quiet Partner™ I sound package makes the DU1055XTSQ a subtle addition to your kitchen.
Go ahead, put the silverware AnyWare&trade
With the AnyWare&trade silverware basket, the DU1055XTSQ gives you optimal organizing and loading versatility. Not only can the basket be placed in the door but it can also be placed on the outside of the lower rack, thus freeing up 100% usable space for loading other dishes on the racks.
ENERGY STAR of approval
Seeking to meet your demand to reduce energy use and preserve the environment, Whirlpool has made sure that the DU1055XTSQ meets the U.S. government's standard for ENERGY STAR qualification. What does the ENERGY STAR qualification mean? ENERGY STAR is a government-backed program helping businesses and individuals protect the environment through superior energy efficiency. For the family or homeowner, energy efficient choices can reduce energy consumption and expenses by up to one third while resulting in similar savings of greenhouse gas emissions, without sacrificing features, style or comfort. ENERGY STAR helps you make the energy efficient choice. When a product boasts the ENERGY STAR qualification, this means the product meets stringent government standards set by the EPA and US Department of Energy for conserving both energy and the environment. So whether you are concerned for the environment, your pocket book or both, this appliance helps ensure both are given an easier load to bear.

I purchased an open box version of this item. It was an incredible value and the dishwasher is excellent. It is quiet, energy efficient, and leaves the dishes clean as a whistle. The only downside is that it takes a long time, but that is the tradeoff for the other features and well worth it. You can set it to run overnight and your dishes are clean in the morning.

This is a fine replacement for my old Whirlpool which lasted over 12 years before finally beginning to break down. The streamlined design makes excellent use of every available space and I like that the center water distributing column on the bottom has been dropped down so that the first loading shelf has more uninterrupted room for larger pots and baking trays. The tall design also allows plenty of space on the top shelf for taller items such as small pans, coffee carafe, etc. A silverware holder which can be placed on the inside door was a must for me to save space but can also be optionally placed anywhere on the lower rack.
The machine is very simple to use with easy push-button controls and many options. It operates very quietly in all cycles and the smooth exterior and flush surfaces make for easy cleaning. Very nice!
