I"ve never had a dishwasher but I'm planning to get one soon so I've done a lot of research and asking from friends and family. I'm going with a Bosch. I've never heard a single complaint about them!

I was always taught to never buy the cheapest or the most expensive appliance but to buy a brand name in between. I personally a Maytag person.

Always had kitchen aid & loved them! Never had a problem.
Then again can always get a lemon in anything.

We've had a Bosch for 13 yrs.....it's quiet and still cleans all dishes and pans beautifully, I love it.

I have an Electrolux, and it's so quiet! I have to put my ear down next to it to tell if it's running. I've never seen one so quiet.

We bought a Bosch because it is quiet. Our old machine made so much noise we couldn't hear the TV (kitchen and family room is an open area). The Bosch is sooooooooooo much better!

This machine has a short rinse cycle you can use without washing. The silverware tray is in the door. This dishwasher holds a LOT and big stuff too. Oh, and I can turn off heated drying. Saves a ton in electric costs.
I've heard Whirlpool makes a lot of other brands like Kenmore and don't remember the others....I think Signature (Montgomery Ward) too....and others.
I think we paid about $400.

I have the same dishwasher. What I love about it is how quiet it is and that it's spacious inside and cleans the dishes well. I thought having the silverware tray on the door would be a good thing at first, but when you have the bottom rack out, you can't put silverware in the tray. Didn't like that at first, but used to it now and like it because it leaves the entire lower rack open for anything. I do use the rinse feature if we won't be running it for a few days, that's a really nice feature to have. We paid the same, about $400.

I have a BOSCH and it is okay. The only problem I find is you have to run it every other day or it starts to smell. DH has tried everything to fix this but I guess it is common in some Bosch's.

I do baking, lots of it. I use 12' x 17' baking pans.
I can get 9 or 10 of them in my Kitchenaid dishwasher.
I still usually have to do 2 or 3 loads per day. I wouldn't know my dishwasher was running without looking at the lights on the front. I vote for Kitchenaid.
