Design and Quality
The Maytag MDB4949SKZ dishwasher comes with a simple and beautiful design, Its fingerprint-resistant stainless steel finish makes it look really classy and expensive. An integrated control panel is responsive and improves the overall look of the dishwasher.

Capacity
This front control dishwasher has a 14 place settings capacity with 2 racks. Increased upper rack height fits pots and pans easily, and big dishes in the bottom.
The lack of fold-down tines makes it harder to fit odd-size items like chunky mugs. This Maytag dishwasher doesn’t have 3rd rack for silverware, it has a silverware basket that allows you to place just one spoon, knife in each slot.
Capacity Rating 7/10
Maytag MDB4949SKZ Cleaning Performance
The Maytag MDB4949SKZ offers 5 wash cycles, this dishwasher does not disappoint you at this price range but scores lower than its competitors.
The PowerBlast® cycle cleans well but it takes more time to complete the cycle. The Normal cycle scored an average in our test and it takes nearly 3 hours to finish. The Quick cycle takes a hour to clean the dishes but well-suited only for lightly soiled plates and glasses.
