To find out which brands make the best dishwashers, we created a statistical model that incorporates the Overall Score of each dishwasher we’ve tested. We specifically looked at brands with at least four models in our ratings.
We looked at how well the dishwashers of a certain brand performed in our lab tests, how reliable and satisfying they were to the CR members we surveyed, and how easy they were to use, which is based on the number of features the dishwashers have.
We also considered price. If a manufacturer produces dishwashers at a lower price that perform well in our ratings, it will get a boost in the brand score compared with a brand that makes similarly performing higher-priced models.
In looking at overall brand scores, Bosch stood out as a dishwasher brand, followed by Miele and LG.
