Does anyone out there have a LG Dishwasher model # LDS5040ST? And have you had any problems with it ?

We used to a LG dishwasher and had nothing but problems with it
The best thing we ever did was buy the extended warranty on all of our LG appliances
I will never buy LG again

We purchased our LG 15 months ago and it didn't get the dishes clean at all. Had technicians out 6 times and finally LG decided to replace it. We've had this one for 3 months and it's doing the same thing. Have a technician coming tomorrow. And yes thank goodness for the extended warranty. Our refrigerator, range and microwave are doing great but dishwasher another story. It's as if there isn't enough water to do the job. And I'm with you, I'll never buy an LG appliance. They are way over rated.

Consumer Reports says LG & Samsung are the least reliable dishwashers.

We had a top of the line LG dishwasher in MI, and it was the worst dishwasher we've ever had. Didn't get the dishes clean, ruined the stainless flatware, never dried completely. And it broke. It had a stainless interior, and I will never have one of those again.
