Re: [DIY] Dishwasher is DEAD DEAD DEAD

Well Kitchenaid is always a good one. I think that is what my mom usuallyi gets. I never buy the cheapest...but cant afford the top of the line either... but I did always buy a top brand.

I finally got tired of replacing them every 5 years or so. Pulled it out the last time and I now use that area for storing my craft supplies.

Our 19yo Kitchenaid dishwasher finally died. It fills up but doesn't wash or drain. Not surprised, it's pretty old and the control panel buttons lettering have pretty much worn off and it's not cleaning as well as it used to. I think we got our moneys worth after 19 years so we're good with getting a new one. This Kitchenaid dishwasher has been a real workhorse.

Soo...we're in the search for a new dishwasher. Like the Kitchenaid, we don't believe in buying a low end appliance since it'll most likely end up costing us in the long run.

We've looked at Bosch, Kitchenaid, Asko, Fisher and Paykel (we have their washer and dryer and really like it) and some others. My wife saw a friends new Asko and is seriously considering that brand/model.

Any comments/recommendations on a replacement dishwasher? We have to do this either TONIGHT or Saturday. We have a very busy household and the thought of hand washing everything is frightening.
