Product review (2 stars): Built to break!
If you were as unfortunate as I was to buy a KitchenAid dishwasher, get ready to buy a bunch of these (at least they are about half the price here as they are at local stores). The housing that covers the chopper is designed improperly, and the chopper hits it and breaks off at the shaft. Luckily my dad was able to modify it a bit so it stopped hitting, but it took a lot of doing. Bad design, bad dishwasher -- will never buy KitchenAid again.
