Four arms at work
It's true: if you had the time in your busy schedule to wash the dishes by hand, you could clean them thoroughly, gently, and efficiently. However, you'd rather spend after-meal time with friends or family, or maybe just with a good book, so you need a dishwasher that can achieve the same level of washing performance you could deliver yourself. Presenting the KUDC20FSS from KitchenAid. First, this built-in dishwasher uses four stainless steel wash arms to spray wash and rinse water to ten precisely angled locations throughout the stainless steel wash tub, delivering maximum coverage of the washing area and a thorough clean. Second, an Optimum wash sensor adjusts each wash cycle to the specific water conditions generated by each load, providing both maximum cleaning performance and high efficiency. Further, for a heightened level of clean, the KUDC20FVSS offers an NSF -certified Sani-Rinse option, ensuring that your dishes are not only clean, but sanitized.
A peek inside
With its stainless steel design and fully integrated control panel, from the outside, the KitchenAid KUDC20FVSS looks, well, modern, stylish, and unassuming. On the inside, however, you find a variety of versatile, performance-enhancing features. First, a built-in hard-food disposer is capable of processing food particles, effectively eliminating the need to pre-rinse your dishes. Second, an adjustable upper rack can be raised or lowered by two inches, giving you the ability to fit larger items on either the upper or lower rack for a maximized use of space. Third, when combined with the Heated Dry wash option, the KUDC20FVSS's stainless steel tub retains heat better than plastics, delivering improved drying performance as well as enhanced resistance to wear. Finally, a Durakote nylon-coated rack system with SatinGlide rack glides protects dishes from scratches and accommodates up to 14 place settings.
Why, I don't hear a thing
Everything is perfectly okay, folks. Yes, the KitchenAid KUDC20FVSS is working properly . . . even though you can't hear a thing. If there's one thing about your old dishwasher that you never could quite get used to it was the sloshing, gurgling, churning raucous it made while operating. With the KUDC20FVSS and its 54dB-rated Whisper Quiet sound-insulation system, you hear, well, noting but a whisper.
ENERGY STAR efficiency
Seeking to meet your demand to reduce energy use and preserve the environment, KitchenAid has made sure that the KUDC20FVSS meets the U.S. government's standard for ENERGY STAR qualification.

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.
