Top control dishwasher with Third Level Rack and Dual Power filtration - MDB9979SKZ

Dual Power Filtration

Skip soaking, scrubbing and pre-rinsing with Maytag engineering that puts an end to pre-work. Industry-exclusive Dual Power Filtration combines 100% microfiltration and a 4-blade stainless steel chopper to filter out then dispose of any food in its path.

3rd Level Rack

Put more than utensils in the Maytag 3rd Level Rack. With a specialized wash zone and room for mugs and bowls, this distinct design brings more loading space and cleaning power straight to the top of the dishwasher.

PowerBlast cycle

The PowerBlast cycle scours away stubborn foods like egg yolk, peanut butter and even dried-on oatmeal. High-pressure jets, increased water temperatures and hot steam work together to clear food off dishes—so all you have to do is load them in.

PowerDry option

Get 60% better drying with the PowerDry option. Heated drying, combined with a powerful fan, removes humid air so dishes come out cabinet-ready.

Long PowerDry option

Put all the muscle of PowerDry to work in a longer option and get even better drying.

Touch controls

You’re in control with a simple tap of your finger. Smooth, tap-to-activate settings give you quick and seamless access to powerful cleaning.

Fingerprint resistant stainless steel

Easy-to-clean, fingerprint resistant stainless steel resists smudges and streaks to keep your dishwasher looking as good on the outside as it works on the inside.

Leak Detect

The Leak Detect system is a combination of multiple features that measure and monitor the flow of water at various points. If a problem is sensed, the unit can take action by draining the tub and alerting you when necessary.
