A dishwasher can comprise a tub to define a treating chamber in which articles are treated according to a cycle of operation. The treating chamber can have an access opening with a cover selectively permitting access to the treating chamber. A condenser assembly can fluidly couple to the treating chamber for drying articles washed during the cycler of operation. The condenser can fluidly couple to an exhaust conduit disposed in a toe kick panel, which attenuates the sound travelling through the toe kick panel.

A dishwasher can comprise a tub to at least define a treating chamber. The treating chamber can have an access opening with a cover selectively permitting access to the treating chamber. The condenser assembly can be made of a multi-layer absorptive acoustic material, which attenuates sound emanating from the treating chamber and travelling through the condensing section. The sounds attenuation can provide for reducing or eliminating the need for sound insulation necessary within the dishwasher.
