The primary reason I selected this dishwasher was because of the wire cutter review. This dishwasher is light years ahead of my last one. I no longer have to pre-wash dishes before putting them in the dishwasher and it is super quiet. I had a contractor at my house to look at my siding, and while we were inside talking, he suddenly asked what is that noise?  He was shocked to learn that it was my dishwasher. It was so quiet he couldn't believe it.
