Truth

My grandma still has an olive green one from the 70's in her kitchen! And it still works perfectly!

Regulations on how much water they can use that's y

Bite the bullet and buy a Bosch.

Bosch has been my choice.

@broox @WhirlpoolCorp in fairness the dishwasher probably costs 50%+ less that what it cost in real dollars 20 years ago.

Sorry you had a bad experience. BTW, my mom worked at Whirlpool for 27 years. If c you're buying appliances, I can get you the employee discount no problem. Ships directly from Whirlpool to your house.

Because they are a public corporation. Their end goal is to meet their earnings targets quarter after quarter to support their stock price; meanwhile, they face increased competition from other emerging players, some who have lower cost inputs and some who may even receive state subsidies. To meet those earnings targets the 2 easiest methods is to (1) cut costs and (2) leverage the balance sheet by taking on more debt.

We ended up with a Bosch. It doesn't suck.

We splurged on a Bosch in our Ankeny house & it was worth every penny!

Haha I was just bitching about ours this morning. How can an appliance that costs so much be so shitty. Ours hardly even works most of the time.

Guess I shoulda bought a Bosch
