Product review (5 stars): So far I'm IN LOVE!
Received my CTDW on Friday and I couldn't wait to see what it had to offer seeing as how there are some mixed reviews online.  First off it came in a massive box  that I literally had to drag inside, I cut into the box and it was beautifully packeged in another box with foam blocks on all the corners to protect it from travel.

When I opened the second box I was a little nervous because there was water on the outside of the unit, but dry inside, which confused my brain because it was sealed tightly in 2 huge boxes.

I did have a little trouble hooking the unit up I have a Koehler faucet. I ended up popping out both black rubber stoppers to make the unit compatible with my faucet. When I turned on the faucet there was some leaking, eeeeek! So I unscrewed the adapter and wrapped my faucet in some white plumbing tape wala! Problem solved. Granted this is only a temporary solution.  I'll need to buy an adapter.

So far I've done about 6 loads of dishes and I recommend running your sink till the water is as hot as it can get then attaching the unit before starting your wash cycle. My dishes have been coming out clean and shiny and free of spots with no soap residue. It uses minimal water which pleasantly surprised me!  Way less than when I was my dishes by hand. I use a generic brand dish soap from the local dollar General store, it seems to be as good as any name brand.

As a single mom that works 2 jobs this is huge for us, my kids like it, I love it, It's so easy to use. No leaks oh my gosh and it's SO QUIET. I kept asking my daughter is it running? Is it running? And as a bonus my daughter is using the boxes to make a box fort castle she's 13 and over 5 get tall. Will keep updated on this unit, but do it, Its a god send!
