Product review (2 stars): It's quiet ... It will wash pre washed dishes ... Looks cool
We got ours scratch and dent for $495 2 years ago. Based on that price, it's as good as I would expect and I feel was a good deal. However, for those of you less fortunate, looking to pay over $700, I'd say spend a more and go Bosch. We had a Bosch at our old house and it was phenomenal. Now we have to nearly clean the dishes before loading the thing.

The silverware baskets started breaking about one year after we got it and now has multiple holes where silverware will slide right through. The soap door occasionally fails and won't open. It takes a long time to run a cycle.

It will not do pans, deep dishes, mugs. Pretty much your bread and butter cups, bowls and plates are all it can handle. The cleaning power reminds me of dishwashers in the 80s, when you really couldn't allow a scrap of food in the thing or it would just splatter it around.

Overall, Samsung smeared their own name with this one. Disappointing!

UPDATE 1/20/2014:  running about the same. Basically buying our time to get a new dishwasher. Cleans most stuff acceptably if you you thoroughly pre-rinse everything, essentially defeating the whole purpose of having a dishwasher. Continue to have issues with foul smell, and my wife is very diligent in cleaning all the nooks and crannies. Seems that it is just a really poorly designed machine. This contrasts to the Samsung fridge with which we have had no complaints.
