The water can not get as hot as with steel tubs, therefore your dishes get more sanitary when you use steel tubs.
That is a generic claim that pops up and repeated when reading about dishwasher feature options on various sites. There is more marketing involved in that claim than reality. Steel CAN handle more heat but do manufactures actually use different setpoints and temperatures for each type/model in practice? Keep in mind even a stainless tub model still has a plastic screen, filter, basin catch under the tub, pump housing, hoses, impeller, coated racks, silverware tray, drawer wheels and so on.
My current Frigidaire dishwasher is plastic and has the same three water temperature options as my previous model. The manual states the sanitize option raises water temperature to about 156F. Comparing to a similar model but stainless the manual claims sanitize is the same exact 156F.
I looked at some manuals for random Whirlpool models at Lowes (stainless and plastic). Specific temperatures were not listed in the manuals but they all claimed that the sanitize cycles meet "NSF/ANSI Standard 184 for Residential Dishwashers" which is a minimum of 150F. Reference: https://www.nsf.org/consumer-reso...tificati
It would be wrong to assume because a model is stainless inside, it will run hotter or be "more sanitary". It will wholly depend on the specific models programing. If you want higher temps, compare that specific parameter directly and not just "is it stainless". Some manufactures do not even provide the temperature details of cycles in the manuals either so comparison will not be easy.
Mine is expected to be delivered tomorrow.
I'm also wondering if this can be used as a standalone appliance in the basement like a washer or if it needs to be installed within a cabinet setup?
