I'd like to replace a dishwasher and am looking for suggestions for a no
frills unit. All I'd like are:

- Integral water heater
- Ability to accept (some) solid food waste
- ON/OFF control. We don't seem to use any other options on this
dishwasher.
- Drying with forced (fan) heated air
- Quiet
- Reliability

We have another dishwasher that is used for china and crystal, etc. so
the one we're replacing is the work horse, pots, pans, and other
(expendable) daily stuff.

Thanks,
Boden

Hmmm,
You wash crystal(real crystal) and china(gold trimmed collectible
vintage) in a washer? What brand/model is it? I wish I could have a
washer safe enough for that task.

well our bosch, the most unreliable appliance we ever owned died at 3
years old...... and 4 failures over that time:(

replaced it with a whirpool that had 4 control board failures but now
appears fine

however the whirlpool wash is anemic in comparison to the bosch......

i kinda wish we had bought bosch again with a long term warranty

I'm coming up to six trouble-free years with my Bosch. Very quiet and
energy and water efficient, plus the cleaning performance is
outstanding.

Friends of mine have an old RCA dishwasher that continues to soldier
on. Guzzles water and electricity like there's no tomorrow and sounds
like a succession of Studebakers being sucked through a jet engine but
it still works and they have no itention of replacing it until it
dies.

Cheers,
Paul

Pretty much all dishwashers are perfectly safe for crystal and china,
it's the normal dishwasher detergents that are not.
