We love the way the dishwasher is able to clean the dishes and pans during one cycle. We continue to use Cascade gel and Finish rinse solution for all our loads. 

Most loads are lite and do not need a pre-wash before stacking. Frequently we will go 2-3 days between loads since it is only the 2 of us.  It took me a while to get use to a standard load taking 2 hours and a lite load taking 1 hour to complete. 

My wife tested the unit by washing everything in our home without a complaint.  The great news is we notice a decrease in both our water usage and our electric bill.
