Short dishwasher update

Cross your fingers!  The guy came out on Monday, just as I requested on email.  He replaced both controllers and both heating elements.  As he was doing a final run of the machine, he decided the top drawer was making a noise.  My heart sank.  More time with no dishwasher.  I was in luck - he had the plastic (gasp) parts that are with that drawer (it will take more time to explain what they do than I want to spend here).

Anyway - it works - at least each drawer individually.  It's quiet.  He does clean so nicely.  BUT I haven't had a chance to run both drawers at the same time.

I don't think we will really love this machine.  It is small really.  My dinner plates are too big to fit the way they are supposed to, but apparently this is a problem for all people.  The tech showed me what to do - turn the plates around.  I did - and it works,

Guess I will contact Discover and allow payment to go through in a couple of days.

A friend thought those drawer kind would be fab, so she got one and...within the month had sent it back and got a regular dishwasher. Two racks, two wash arms. Hope yours keeps working!

Sounds like you had a repairman who knew what he was doing. Hope it's working right now and that you have come to like it now.

Whew! Can't live without a dishwasher! But I remember doing dishes "by hand", my sisters and I taking turns drying, gossiping, laughing. Ah, good old days!
