4 months in the unit started leaking around the door.
no authorized service in our area, 30 minutes from the twin cities. they said they would give me credit to buy a new one. 
the credit they offered was the purchase price. we bought the unit on sale and got an additional discount for buying the entire package. doesn't matter, i am not only the hook for disconnecting and reconnecting the new one, but also the difference in cost for a four month old dishwasher that is under full warranty. how is that an acceptable resolution?
we have purchased the same kitchen package and a laundry suit for out new home that we will now be returning because i will not deal with this again.
