ZLINE Autograph Edition 24" Dishwasher with Gold Handle — Is This 51dBa Quiet Machine Worth It in 2026?

Strong capacity and 8 wash cycles stand out, but at $1,255, missing a sanitize cycle, delayed start, WiFi, and interior lighting makes this a difficult buy.

How this product scores for different use cases

Family Household
86/100

The 15 place settings and third rack handle large loads well. Missing a sanitize cycle and delayed start limits daily flexibility for busy families.

Premium Kitchen
70/100

The gold handle and 304-grade stainless steel panel add luxury appeal. However, missing sanitize, WiFi, delayed start, and interior lighting fall short of what premium buyers expect at this price.

Quiet Home
59/100

At 51 dB, this unit is louder than premium open-plan dishwashers, which typically run at 44 to 46 dB. It is not suited for noise-sensitive environments.

Small Kitchen / Apartment
51/100

This is a standard 24-inch built-in unit at a premium price. It is not compact or countertop-style and does not suit small kitchens or apartments.

Smart Connected
33/100

No WiFi, no app control, no Alexa or Google integration, and no delayed start. This dishwasher has no smart home compatibility.

Budget Buyer
20/100

At $1,255.58, this is one of the most expensive dishwashers in its class. It is not suited for cost-conscious buyers.

Our Verdict

This dishwasher offers 8 wash cycles and a 15-place-setting capacity. The 304-grade stainless steel tub and auto-sense technology are real strengths.

At $1,255.58, you get no sanitize cycle, no delayed start, and no WiFi. These are standard features on many dishwashers that cost half as much.

The 51 dB noise level is rated below average by benchmark standards. Premium models in this price range typically operate at 44 to 46 dB.

The gold handle and stainless steel panel give your kitchen a polished look. But the feature set does not match what the price suggests you are getting.

What We Like

  • 8 wash cycles including a 50-minute Super Mode for fast, thorough cleans.
  • 15 place settings fits large household loads in a standard 24-inch footprint.
  • Third rack adds dedicated space for utensils, lids, and small items.
  • 304-grade stainless steel tub resists stains, odors, and corrosion.
  • Auto-sense system limits water use to 3.4 gallons per load.

What Could Be Better

  • No sanitize cycle, a standard feature on most dishwashers priced above $500.
  • No delayed start, which most competitors at half this price include.
  • 51 dB noise level is louder than the 44-46 dB typical of premium dishwashers.
  • No WiFi or app control, a common feature on premium units above $1,000.
  • No interior lighting or leak protection, both offered by competitors in this price range.
