This buying dacor dishwasher guide covers the two current 24 inch panel-ready platforms Dacor sells — the DDW24G9000AP and the DDW24T999BB — both Samsung-era units, and what genuinely differs between them.
DDW24G9000AP: the current flagship
The DDW24G9000AP is documented with StormWash+, a dual intensive wash-arm system, a built-in water softener, and AutoRelease, the automatic door-pop mechanism that assists drying at the end of a cycle. It carries an ENERGY STAR Most Efficient designation and is sold in Silver Stainless and Graphite Stainless finish-kit variants under their own suffixed model numbers.
DDW24T999BB: the earlier Modernist-generation platform
The DDW24T999BB is built on an earlier Modernist-generation platform — internally, its manual is filed under a Samsung part-number-style designation — and is documented with top controls, a WaterWall wash system, AutoRelease, a third rack, and a 44 decibel noise rating. It remains a genuinely different platform from the newer DDW24G9000AP rather than a finish variant of it.
What both share
Both current platforms run the same Samsung-era code family — LC, 4C, 5C, HC, 3C, PC, AP — documented in Dacor’s “Information codes” section, and both are panel-ready installations requiring a custom cabinetry front rather than a visible control panel on the door itself.
What the Legacy EDW/IDW platform offers instead, if you already own one
If you are weighing whether to keep an existing Legacy EDW/IDW dishwasher rather than replace it, that platform’s WPS-based sensing architecture is a genuinely different, older design running its own F-1 through F-9 code table — it is not a lesser version of the current platform, simply an earlier one, and parts availability for it is a separate consideration from anything about the current lineup’s features.
What we could not confirm about pricing or availability
Neither platform’s current retail pricing nor regional availability is something this guide states as fact, since that information changes and should be confirmed directly with a retailer or with Dacor before a purchase decision. What is documented and stable is the feature set described above for each SKU.
Where to go from here
Our dishwasher appliance page lists both current SKUs with their documented features, and our dishwasher error codes page covers the code table shared by both. If you are deciding between a repair on an existing unit and a new purchase, scheduling a consultation can help frame that decision with an experienced technician. Dacor’s own site lists current dishwasher pricing, finish, and availability.
