Product review (5 stars): Value worth the cost
I've had this for almost a yr now and I love this thing! My dishes come out clean everytime! On occasion there might be a dirty-ish dish, but that's always been due to either be clearly over-laoding it, or having it wash a dish that really should have been soaked first.

It's super easy to clean, set up, and move around. Yes, the dishes aren't dry. Woopty-doo... just open the door and give it 20 minutes..the dishes are too hot to put away right away anyway. Speaking of hot, I love that I don't have to use hot water but that it takes cold water. It does take about 2 hrs per cycle, on "mormal," but that really evens out since the amount of dishes I get in there would take me about 40 mins to wash anyway-plus I'd have to still stack my dishes on one side of my small sink counter, then wash them, then try to re-stack them on the other side to dry...I never had counter space before this thing and it took the same time before I could put them away as this thing, only now I simply rinse well, store in dishwasher, and every third day or so, my 4 yr old gets to start it! He is very protective that that's HIS job ha

Anyway, it's expensive...it is. But every now and then you find value in a cost. And I'll tell you, from personal experience and 2 yrs of researching various brands and models, that there IS value in the cost of this bad boy.
