    Work at a dishwasher factory. We used to make a model with windows, they were really expensive parts, which meant that they were really expensive dishwashers for a feature that really isn’t useful.

    It makes sense in a microwave or oven because you can check in and make sure it’s all good, or pull it out if it’s done. You can’t do that with a dishwasher, it just runs it’s course.

    Plus all you could see in the thing was splashing soap water.

      Also, it wouldn’t really look nice - a typical stainless steel dishwasher looks clean - a microwave and oven (hopefully) look clean and tidy through the window. But a windowed dishwasher? Half full of dirty dishes for most of the day, and even when the dishes are clean they won’t look neater than a plain stainless steel finish (or whatever finish you prefer)
