Author's Review
I have to begin by saying that this dishwasher cleans very well and is extremely quiet - so quiet that you often don't realize it's running. I can't count the number of times that I've accidentally opened it mid cycle to add a dish or spoon. The quietness alone is enough of a reason for me to recommend it. I have found that I do not need to rinse dishes before putting them in which is a bonus. On the down side, this dishwasher does not dry the dishes which is annoying if you have a busy household and end up running, emptying and refilling several times a day. Generally, if I run the dishwasher in the evening and wait until morning to empty it, things are relatively dry, but not completely dry, so a good dishtowel is still a must. Yes, you do need to use Jet Dry (or the Electrasol tablets with the jet dry in them). Otherwise you will get spotting. At first I didn't think it was such a big deal, but this machine seems to drink Jet Dry which is NOT cheap. The final concern I have is that there is no way to tell from the front of the unit which cycle you are running, where it is at in the cycle or how much time is left in the cycle. The streamlined design of the dishwasher is attractive, but I think an indicator screen on the front would be nice.
