I definitely know what I like and don’t like in a dishwasher. With a family of 4-5 (one away at college most of the time) who prepare a lot of meals at home, the dishwasher is probably our most used appliance (other than something like a refrigerator that is always in use). Rarely does a day go by that I don’t use it, many days I run it twice and in the days leading up to a holiday meal I may run it 4-5 times in one day.Right now ours sounds like a rocket taking off, so anything new will probably be quiet in comparison. This is a lot of info! Who knew dishwashers were so captivating?!
What the PP said! I think we ran it 4 times yesterday!
I will say, a cycle on our Bosch take north of 2 hours (depends on the setting--2:15, 2:25, etc.). Yesterday, it seemed like it was running all day. Not because we could hear it--because of the dishes piled up, waiting for the next round. Normally we have 4 living here--DD18 is at a local college. But, she's home for break, so I made a turkey and some sides--one of her favorites. And her brother made cookies.
