The diverter valve seal wore out and water dripped one the floor after 3 years. The replacement dripped after a year. Third seal is still holding. I have a pan and leak sensor under it and recommend anyone buying a Whirlpool dishwasher do the same. Yes, KitchenAid, Maytag and several others are all Whirlpool and share common parts. Google Whirlpool or KitchenAid diverter valve for more info and class action lawsuit.
Other than the leaks, the machine cleans well and is very quiet. If and when it dies, my only upgrade would be to get vented fan drying.

Reading the fine print it sounds like they uninstall it if installation is included?
I hate to say this but all of them have failures. Yes it seems like I would avoid LG and Samsung but case in point, my sister has a KitchenAid Refrigerator and a Whirlpool gas stove The fridge is the french door with ice which sells for around 3,000 and the stove s around $1500. She's had both since around 2016 and the ice maker already went. The replacement has been a little meh. Sometimes it will dispense ice while other times it does not. This could be something though from Amazon as I don't really trust their sellers.
The stove had a cooling fan issue which made the stove unusable until I replaced it. Luckily these parts aren't expensive but I heard the labor on the stove could be around $500 as I did have to take a bunch of parts off to get to it.
Everything is luck of the draw. I've seen a few issues with posters here about the Bosch.
Also have its gas range, the knobs are pretty flimsy and come off after maybe 5 years. I can pop them back on but they feel slightly lose. The logo on the unit came off during day to day wiping through the years.
Would totally go for a KitchenAid deal next time if I need a new appliance

Is that possible for this deal, and if so how do you select that option (didnt see it at checkout)?
Secondly, is it worth it or are dishwashers a hassle to install? It would seem pretty straight forward to me (drain line and supply line) but I've never done it.
