Product review (1 stars): KitchenAid KUDS30IXBL diswasher does not clean
This dishwasher was a problem from the day it entered my home.  In a few weeks it just stopped working had the serviceman out got it up and running and a month later it was down..  I honesty cannot count the times I had to take off from week to wait for a service man.  The only good thing was that customer support did extend the warranty to cover my service calls for 2 years.  Well now it is 6 months out of my warranty and it is not cleaning the dishes.  It never did a great job on the top rack.  It always left food dried on.  It does clean better on the bottom.  I thought it was the way the dishes were being stacked.  Didn't make a diff. It is disgusting.....food particles all over dishes.  I don't want to rack up a service call or again take the time off from work. I am still trying different things trying to avoid a service call.  It might be better to admit the dishwasher is a failure and buy a new one.  I have  a hard time spending the money........$700 dollars is a lot of money to literally throw down the drain.  Well just stay away from this. I am going to call support and see if they have a recall.  I will post if anything positive happens.

Update.......my husband found instructions in how to get down to the grinder and filter system.  It involved many steps.  there was a lot of gunk blocking  the filter which backed up into the washer causing dirty dishes.  It is a shame customer service did not recognize my problem and help with proper instructions.  we were going to buy a new dishwasher or possibly a service call of a couple hundred dollars.  Thanks to my husband and his research on the internet the dishwasher works great.  The grinder is small and delicate.  Clean food off your plates so as not to block the filter.
