  • Do you LOVE your dishwasher?

    I am in need of a new dishwasher. Has anyone recently bought a new one and would recommend it? The one I have now is a Kenmore and is 25 years old, I love it cause I can pack it so well but its giving out on me these days.
    Any suggestions anyone?

    I wash all my stuff by hand, there isnt enough room in my kitchen for a dish washer.

    (not that that is much use to you).

      My dishwasher is my husband..lol....
      Kitchen is far too tiny to fit a mechanical dishwasher into it!

      Problem at the moment is my dishwasher (hubby) is broken.....hand and wrist are in plaster!
      Tommorow though it may be mended after a hospital check up...
      God I hope so...my poor hands....

        I too have an ancient dishwasher. It should be in a museum. It takes over 2 hours to run a regular cycle. It sounds like a jet is in our kitchen when we use it, but it still gets the dishes clean, so I'll keep it for now.

        Good luck. I hope you find a good one

              I bought a new Kenmore last year to replace an ancient GE. I bought one of the least expensive models because Consumer Reports reported it as a 'best buy'. They also rated it as mid-range as far as noise level; but compared to the GE this is very quiet to me. Cleans very well too.

              Atkid, my $0.02 says stick with a Kenmore.

                  I must have tried every brand name going with no joy. The one I have now is brandless lol. It came with the kitchen set I bought and it is amazing!

                    Hey, I used to sell dishwashers. Been a few years so I can't really give you specific model numbers BUT a couple notes that might help.

                    It seemed like any dishwasher above around $450 bucks just plain cleaned better (regardless of model or manufacturer).

                    We got the fewest returns/complaints about Bosch and Whirlpool gold. Those seemed consistently reliable and quiet too.

                    Worst dishawashers we sold seemed to be made by Frigidaire, at least as far as what we head back from customer and how many we got returned.

                    Hope that helps!

                          Will check out the whirlpool, thanks for the feedback! So right now I will be checking out the whirlpool, whirlpool gold, and the kenmore. Stephbob loves hers but it is brandless so that would be a fluke if I happened to find it, lol!
