Product review (3 stars): Not a Bad Replacement
If I could, I'd give it 3.5 stars.

I bought this as a replacement, purchased "bisque" color version of this dishwasher but basically the same on everything else.

PROS:

* ZERO electronics panel to go bad, MANUAL control knob ALWAYS works!
* Large enough to put most of the dishes inside, even wine glasses
* Cleans dishes fairly well

CONS:

* Loud (but I can leave the room)
* Ugly steel panel across bottom makes it looks dated
* Makes strange, loud noises during cycles (detergent release switch, etc.)
* Cycles take a long time to complete
* Installation; did not quite fit right, needed trim to cover edges
* Lid does not open completely, tray needs to be propped to fill

I bought this after being tired of electronic panels going out on other models. I'm getting ready to sell, so I didn't want to pay a lot for this and I didn't, got it on sale for 325.00. It works, does the dishes and had not (knock on wood) failed yet after a year. With so many complaints about electronic panels going out in reviews and my own experience, I will never buy another electronic "touch" panel dishwasher again. I'm even putting a manual model in my new house. Face it, all of these hi-tech dishwashers are junk because they all buy their computer boards from the same place in China. A manual control with an electric timer is the way to go and I'm never looking back! This one ain't perfect, but it's a whole lot better than a 700-dollar boat anchor that goes on the fritz every time there's a power outage. Steer clear of computer-board, touch-control dishwashers!
