I quit using my dishwasher. It's just DH and I and we use a lot of Dixie. But got tired of having to clean it on a consistent basis. Been about 9 months since we used it but it's just 2 of us and I get dishes done in under 30 minutes for a lot and dishwasher takes about 1 1/2 hours. So much mineral deposit, I had to rewash flatware and some dishes. A little exercise doesn't hurt me anyway. But again it's just 2 of us.
