The KDFE104DSS is a KitchenAid dishwasher. No published specification for this model was recovered, so there is no dimension or capacity quoted on this page. A number lifted from a sibling model would be worse than silence. The archive of KitchenAid’s US product site holds it from November 2014 through to September 2015, and no later capture carries it.
KitchenAid appends a production-revision code to the base number on the rating plate, and the codes actually observed for this model are KDFE104DSS0, KDFE104DSS5. A plate reading one of those is still a KDFE104DSS; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. A machine of that age has had enough cycles for the door seal, the pump and the spray system to have moved on from new, and that is where diagnosis usually starts on a KDFE104DSS. Being out of production, a KDFE104DSS has its parts position checked at the outset rather than after a diagnosis.

Most Common Issues on This Model
A heating element that has lost continuity, so the load comes out clean but cold and wet
Spray arm jets and bearings blocked with debris, giving a patchy wash on the upper rack
An inlet valve stuck part open or failed shut, so the machine either overfills or never fills
Filter and sump blockages, the commonest reason for poor drainage and a smell from the tub
