BENTON HARBOR, Mich. (September 17, 2024) – Today, KitchenAid reveals the KitchenAid® 360° Max Jets™ Third Rack Dishwasher. Previously known as the FreeFlex™ Third Rack, the dishwasher provides total cleaning coverage for dishes in all three racks with more than 50 target jets² across four wash arms, allowing dishes to go straight from the table to the dishwasher without prerinsing. 

 

In honor of the relaunch of the most beloved KitchenAid dishwasher, KitchenAid is teaming up with Grammy award-winning artist and lead singer of the X Ambassadors Sam Nelson to write the ultimate love song. With lyrics pulled directly from KitchenAid consumer reviews, this song will have you falling in love at first wash. Keep an eye on the KitchenAid Instagram and YouTube channels this week to watch the music video as soon as it drops. 

 

KitchenAid created the song in an effort to translate consumers’ real love for the KitchenAid® 360° Max Jets™ Third Rack Dishwasher and (pun intended) sing its praises. As the lyrics note, the most beloved feature is the 360° Max Jets™  Third Rack.  

 

The KitchenAid 360° Max Jets™ Third Rack Dishwasher is the only third rack with 360° wash jets to clean pint glasses, coffee mugs and cereal bowls inside. Along with the largest third rack available³, it also has a removable utensil track for cooking tools and moisture-wicking tines for thorough drying, making unloading easy and moisture-free. 

 

“Our lives can get busy, and that's why KitchenAid designed the KitchenAid® 360° Max Jets™ Third Rack Dishwasher to help eliminate time spent cleaning up,” said Anthony Pastrick, KitchenAid Senior Brand Manager. “Whether you are running out the door or entertaining friends and family, the KitchenAid® 360° Max Jets™ Third Rack Dishwasher is ready to quietly tackle the mess and maximize time spent doing what you love to do.”

 

Key features of the KitchenAid® 360° Max Jets™ Third Rack Dishwasher include: 

• 50+ Total Wash Jets: Provide total cleaning coverage for dishes in all three racks with more than 50 targeted jets across four wash arms, so you can load without prerinsing. 

• MaxTub Largest DishWasher Tub¹: Makes room for 360° Max Jets Third Rack, which fits 10 extra glasses and mugs, freeing up space for larger items below. And fold-down rows in the lower rack accommodate cookware of various shapes and sizes. 

• 360° Max Jets™  Third Rack: The only third rack with 360° wash jets to clean pint glasses, coffee mugs and cereal bowls inside and out. The largest third rack available², it also has a removable utensils tray for cooking tools and moisture-wicking tines for thorough drying. 

• True Self–Cleaning Filtration: The only dishwasher filtration system that eliminates the need for manual filter cleanings. It continuously captures food particles, so only clean water circulates through the wash jets, then cleans itself as the dishwasher drains.

• Designed for Quiet Cleaning at 44dBA: Designed for Quiet Cleaning at 44dBA so you can let the dishwasher get a head start on cleanup while you entertain and enjoy meals, even in an open-concept kitchen.
