D/W stands for Dishwasher, a classified ad abbreviation.
Indicates that a kitchen includes a dishwasher, listed among appliances in rental and sale ads, as in "D/W, microwave, fridge."
Example: Kitchen has new D/W, gas range and granite counters; heat and hot water included.
Usage notes
Also written DW. Older apartments, particularly in large cities, often lack dishwashers, so landlords advertise one prominently. The slash form mirrors other appliance shorthand such as W/D. Listings may also mention a garbage disposal.
