Product review (1 stars): Cost us 1000$ in HomeOwners deductable es
A horrible idea from the day we got it. SO poorly designed that plates and bowls do not stand up but lay on each other so nothing gets clean. The lid to the detergent box does not open so just don't close it! The dry cycle is ridiculously long and makes the "normal" cycle 4  freeeking hours long, and then they are not clean OR dry. BUT the real kicker was that the plastic vent covers on the inside of the front of the drawer broke almost immediately, allowing water into the inside of the drawer front which drained all over my kitchen floor. I found the lake an hour later and by that time it had gotten thru to the subfloor and raised all of my laminate. Our went from the kitchen into the dining and living room one direction, and down the hall in the other and they don't make it anymore, so we couldn't just replace part!  I turned it into my homeowners, paid the 1000 deductible, and replaced all the flooring. The Sears repair came out, told me he agreed that todays appliances are crap and ordered new vent covers. After a month of doing dishes, we installed them I began using the dishwasher again and GUESS what! Still leaking! Hands down the worst idea ever! Who designs this stuff. It's as bad as the front mammoth front loading washers with the gooky rubber seal that grows mold and makes the clothes stink OR the new washers with no agitator, clothes come out stinky and so twisted up and tied together that I have to wrestle them apart to get them in the dryer. If you have vintage appliances KEEP THEM! I called Kitchenaid and the just blew me off. No such thing as customer service anymore.
