Is it a European upscale model in excellent condition? Fix it.

If it is a low-end model, replace it.

If you paid less than $300 7 years ago, you got your money's worth. If you
have an expensive premium dishwasher, its probably a damaged rubber seal or
gasket (didn't say where the leak was) and worth fixing. Depends on your
budget, fixing yourself will be far less than replacing. Calling a
repairman may cost most of a cheap replacement

Just stay away from the 3 rack Maytag models. Read reviews at
www.epinions.com. I tossed mine after 4 repairs in 2 years. It is junk. A
repair guy told me the newer ones are worse.
