Product review (2 stars): Overall design questions
Let me say that the supplier is not responsible for this low rating (except maybe for the price). They delivered the part in a timely manner. This is a manufacturer issue.

We had to replace this basket bar due to a number of the tines rusting and falling off the main support. The washer is only 5 years old and as one of the higher end more expensive dishwashers it should have parts that would last longer. For that matter, this is not a part that is under any real stress in my opinion so it shouldn't fail at all. In addition, a replacement is considerably expensive and if all of the racks need to be replaced then the cost would be more than 1/2 the original cost of the entire washer. We have another bar that looks like it will fail soon so how long will it be before they all fail?
