Is the Samsung DW80B7070UG worth $799?

At $799 at The Home Depot as of November 5, 2026, you pay for quiet operation, strong pot cleaning and door-release drying. If noise and drying are your priorities, it is a fair buy; if you want the lowest price, a basic 50 dBA model costs far less.

How does StormWash+ differ from a standard wash cycle?

StormWash+ adds a high-pressure spray jet and dual wash arms that hit the lower rack from several angles. It is meant for greasy pans and caked-on food, not for delicate glassware.

Does the door really open by itself to dry?

Yes. AutoRelease cracks the door open at the end of the cycle while a heated fan circulates air. Leave clearance in front of the dishwasher and expect some warm, humid air in the kitchen.

What are the cutout dimensions?

The unit is 24 inches wide, 25 inches deep and 35 inches tall. Check your cabinet opening height, since 35 inches is taller than some standard 34-inch openings.

Does it work with Alexa and Google Assistant?

Yes. It connects over Wi-Fi and supports both Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa, so you can start or check cycles by voice through the SmartThings app.
