we upgraded to Bosch 2 years ago and love it.We've been in our house for 30 years. Started with a midrange Kenmore for the price and warranty. Later got a top of the line Kenmore for the quietness when the first one died. Replaced the motherboard once. When the rack rusted, got a top of the line Bosch and realized we didn't know what quiet was. Highly recommended.
Not a world beater dry cycle, but otherwise perfect as far as I'm concernedwe upgraded to Bosch 2 years ago and love it.
We have two dishwashers. No idea why it was done but it was.I learned over the years that having a dishwasher in the kitchen is not necessarily a time saver...and they can be a lot of work -- rinsing the dishes, loading the dishwasher, putting away the dishes, etc. And then washing the pots that don't fit in the dishwasher. Then there is the routine internal cleaning of the dishwasher itself (have you seen how much gunk accumulates in the crevices' and mechanics of a dishwasher?)
Our dishwasher broke a couple of years ago and we decided to not get it repaired. Now we do dishes by hand....and the old saying "many hands make light work" applies here -- one to wash, one to dry. We find a meal's worth of dishes takes no time to wash, especially if you have someone to dry. Washing dishes by hand is kind of relaxing...for me its a form of meditation...and I like the warm water on my hands (good for arthritis).
Anyone have a similar experience?
