Product review (1 stars): Kitchen Aid Superba NOT
I purchased the stainless steel KA Superba in 2006, $900. Food debris had to be cleaned off before use, as well as anything that needed scrubbing regardless of an immediate wash or not.  It was rarely used for the first 2 years.  The rack clips were fragile and were problematic from the start.  It was used every 3 days from 2008 to 2011.  Near daily use began in 2012.  The hinges broke, and then the device to lock it shut failed.  There are no small children to have stood on the door.  I have been using heavy duty tape to keep it shut until I choose another dishwasher.  It never took the place of scrubbing pots.  I was never thrilled over its washing results.  I have a water softening unit in my home, and that should have aided in a better cleaning result.  Kitchen Aid online customer service will have nothing to do with it due to the age, despite the lack of regular use for some time.
