We love this dishwasher.  It dries very well considering it does have a heated element.  We never have food after a wash.  And the best - wisper quiet.  Our kitchen and family room are one big open space and you can't hear the dishwasher run from the family.  And even in while in the kitchen, you have to listen closes to hear anything.  And the flexibility of the different cycles is awesome.  Did I say already that we love this dishwasher.
