Miele Series. The new series is very quiet at 40 dBA. This dishwasher comes with luxurious interior lighting, an adjustable 3rd cutlery rack, and a water softener to ensure a perfect clean every time. However, an open floor plan kitchen might have you looking for something even quieter, and those options are available. Having said that, the truth of the matter is that paying extra for anything below 44db is a waste of money unless you plan on sleeping in your kitchen every night.
At 44db you may still hear a very slight noise coming from the dishwasher so if you are extra sensitive to sound there are models available as quiet as 38db. But for most homes this will be overkill. The factors that go into determining how loud a dishwasher will be while running are numerous and diverse. The main sources of noise within a dishwasher are the movement of water through the water pump, the drain pump removing water from the space, water moving and bouncing off of surfaces within the dishwasher including the wash tubs and plates, and the movement of dishes within the device.
Units that utilize a hard food disposal system tend to be louder, as well. That being said, manufacturers have found effective ways to minimize the amount of sound that is produced and how much of that sound escapes the dishwasher. Some of these design innovations involve the washing process itself, using quieter pump systems and variable speeds that keep the dishwasher from constantly running at full power and full volume.
Another tactic manufacturers use is to add insulation around the unit to keep noise from escaping. This helps keep any sounds isolated to the inside of the dishwasher. Comparing brands when it comes to their decibel claims can be tough because there is no standardized practice for measuring noise levels. This means that one company could be measuring at a distance of one meter while another is conducting tests from across a warehouse, or in a different type of room.
Besides, are the brands considering the noise levels during water intake or discharge or are they measuring quietness during wash cycles? What is the soil level of the dishes during the test as the advanced sensors will adjust water pressure and cleaning intensity based on samples taken throughout the cycle? You can see from these examples how decibel level readings could be misleading.
Your only truly safe bet is when making relative comparisons between models offered by the same brand, because they at least can be expected to use the same noise testing methods.
Bosch and Miele dishwashers are the two brands who have the quietest dishwashers. They have been "battle-tested" and shown to have the best noise ratings across the board. Considering that their testing methods to be the most stringent in the industry we highly recommend them as a safe bet.
As a side note, we believe Miele dishwashers missed a great opportunity in marketing when the company decided not to release its great quietness ratings for more than a decade before circa Why We Like It: Ultimate in cleaning, and drying.

Eliminates musty smells that usually occur on dishwashers from other manufacturers. The quietest models tend to operate within a dBA or two. This difference is barely noticeable with some models operating at 37 dBA when using an Extra Quiet program, but there are other dishwashers that operate between 38 and 42 dBA in normal programs.
The choice of program is not the only factor that can influence the noise output of your dishwasher. Some experts argue that the soil level of your dishes can lead to louder operation. If you have dirtier dishes, the dishwasher needs to work harder to complete the cycle. This can lead to an increase in appliance noise output, but it is rarely more than 3 dBA, which is barely perceptible to human ears.
In the real world, a difference of a noise output up to 10 dBA is rarely noticeable. So, with typical dishwasher models operating between 40 and 55 dBA, there is very little difference in the noise output for the average household.
