Product review (5 stars): No Joke
After my wife and I separated, I moved into a small apartment which did not have a built-in dishwasher.  It was fun washing dishes by hand for a few weeks.  Being the ultimate procrastinator, that quality time in the kitchen after every meal became a chore real fast.
I did my research, and despite mixed reviews I decided to order the Danby counter-top model dishwasher.  It was light, for me anyway, and it fit my counter perfectly.  All the components were accounted for and installation was quick and painless.
The first loads were done on the P1 setting, but I have since set it down to the P2 setting.  I like that the controls return me to the P2 setting when I power it up.  If you have to open it during a cycle, say to put in the detergent you forgot (cut me some slack, I'm a man),  the water stays inside.
I don't rinse my dishes off beforehand, but I don't stick chicken skeletons in there either.  Just use some common sense.  The stainless steel particulate trap does a great job of catching the wayward corn kernel and similar sized food items.  Pop it out and rinse it every-once-in-awhile; It's not rocket science.
It has been running, at least twice a week, perfectly now for over four months.  Anything small enough to fall through the basket can be arranged to stay put.  A cookie sheet, aluminum pizza pan and a large stock pot are the only dishes I own that are too big.  I can deal with it, I just don't make pizza, cookies and huge batches of chili anymore. Just kidding.
I am very happy with my purchase.  No Joke.
