The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other vacuum sealers, built-in and countertop dishwashers, food slicers, meat and grain grinders, spice mills and kitchen prep appliances we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
The EdgeStar DWP63 shares its cabinet dimensions with the older DWP62WH, at 19.63 x 21.63 x 17.31 inches, and weighs 44.1 lb. The main differences from its predecessor are the black finish and push-button controls instead of touch controls. It runs on 120 volts and holds 6 place settings, which is the standard capacity ceiling for countertop models.
At 52 dB, the DWP63 is reasonably quiet for its size, matching the COMFEE CDC22P1BBB and the Danby DDW621WDB on noise level. Push-button controls are a deliberate choice by EdgeStar and tend to be more reliable long-term than capacitive touch panels. The black finish and EdgeStar's black finish combination gives the unit a clean, kitchen-agnostic look.
The primary caution here is the review count. At just 46 reviews and a 3.9 average, the DWP63 has not accumulated enough real-world feedback to call its reliability track record established. EdgeStar has a longer history in the countertop appliance space than some competitors, which provides some confidence, but the individual model record is still thin. At $349, you are paying a premium over several well-reviewed alternatives.
Pros
- Quiet 52 dB operation for a 6-place-setting unit
- Push-button controls offer a tactile, durable interface
- Black finish suits modern kitchen setups
- 6-place-setting capacity covers small households
- EdgeStar has an established brand history in countertop appliances
Cons
- Only 46 reviews makes reliability difficult to assess
- 3.9 average rating is the lowest among 6-place-setting models in this group
- $349 price puts it above better-reviewed competitors
- No published wattage to estimate running costs
Performance notes
The DWP63 is rated at 52 dB, which is a competitive noise level for a full-size countertop dishwasher. The 6-place-setting capacity is standard for the category. Dimensions are 19.63 x 21.63 x 17.31 inches with a weight of 44.1 lb. It runs on 120V standard household current. No wattage figure is published in the available specs.
What buyers say
With only 46 reviews and a 3.9 average, buyer sentiment on the DWP63 is inconclusive. The small sample size means the rating could shift significantly with more purchases. Current reviewers are split, with some praising the build quality and others noting performance inconsistencies. Prospective buyers should check for updated review counts before purchasing, as this model's record may look quite different with six months of additional feedback.

Frequently asked questions
How does the EdgeStar DWP63 compare to the older DWP62WH?
The DWP63 replaces the DWP62WH and adds a black finish and push-button controls, while keeping the same 19.63 x 21.63 x 17.31 inch cabinet. The DWP62WH had a white finish with touch controls and carried a 4.3 rating from 361 reviews, which gives it a more established track record at the time of comparison. The DWP63 costs $20 more and currently has far fewer reviews.
Is $349 a fair price for the EdgeStar DWP63?
At $349, the DWP63 is one of the pricier 6-place-setting countertop dishwashers in this roundup. The COMFEE CDC22P1BBB delivers the same capacity for about $70 less and carries a much larger review base. The EdgeStar premium reflects brand positioning rather than a clear spec advantage, so value-focused buyers should consider alternatives.
Does the DWP63 need a water line connection?
The EdgeStar DWP63 is designed to connect to a standard kitchen faucet via an included adapter for water supply. It can also operate using a built-in reservoir fill method. Drain options typically include a pump-out hose to a sink basin. Refer to the installation guide for the specific setup that matches your kitchen configuration.
