Dishwashers in the United States: prices, sizes and what to check

A built-in dishwasher in the United States costs approximately $329 to $1,550 right now, according to sellers' websites, October 2026. Most units are 24 inches wide, and the price depends mainly on the controls, the number of racks and the brand.

Energy and performance rules to check

The US Department of Energy has set energy conservation standards for residential dishwashers since 1988, and manufacturers must comply with them, so every new model meets a federal minimum. The ENERGY STAR standard is 3.5 gallons per cycle, and some listings mention that label. Residential dishwashers certified to NSF/ANSI 184 must reach a final rinse of 150°F and cut bacteria by at least 5 logs, which matters if you want a true sanitize cycle.

Warranty: what a standard plan covers

Most dishwashers come with a one-year manufacturer warranty, and some brands, such as LG, cover parts for two years from the date of purchase. Home warranty plans usually cover repairs for normal wear, but replacements are limited by contract terms and coverage caps. Read what is included before you pay for an extended plan, and keep your receipt in case you need a claim.

Season and delivery in your city

A dishwasher is used all year, so the season has little effect on price. October falls before the December to February winter, so there is time to plan the work, and the real question is when your old machine stops working. Ask each seller whether the price includes delivery to New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston or Phoenix and removal of the old unit. Measure the opening in inches, and check the height and depth too.

What to write in your request

Name the type (built-in or freestanding), the width, and whether you want new or used. Add the capacity you need, the features that matter to you (a third rack, quiet operation, heat drying), the connection under your sink and your budget. The more of this is in the request, the closer the offers will be to what you need.

BlaBlaPrice is free for buyers. Describe the dishwasher in your own words in a chat, and add a photo of your kitchen if it helps. The AI reads the request, asks for missing details and searches sellers' websites and price lists in the United States, then shows the prices and businesses it found. Registered sellers reply in the chat with their own price, terms and delivery, and your contact details stay hidden until you choose to share them. You can also browse kitchen appliances or create a request from the home page.
