Maytag MDB8979SFZ 24-inch wide top control dishwasher with powerdry option - Fingerprint resistant Stainless Steel

POWERDRY OPTION

The PowerDry option decreases humidity in the tub and dries your dishes 50% better without using rinse aid.

MOST POWERFUL MOTOR ON THE MARKET

Maytag® dishwashers feature the most powerful motor on the market2. Powerful enough to handle dried-on egg yolk and peanut butter without prerinsing, this motor can handle your dirtiest dishes.

4-BLADE STAINLESS STEEL CHOPPER

No more scraping plates. The 4-blade stainless steel chopper disintegrates the food particles that come off your dishes so they don't end up recirculating and sticking to your dishes and glassware.
