I've had problems getting dishes clean, too. To the point where I spread the dishes out face down...and consequently run the machine more often since I can't put as many on the racks.

But I have also had the problem of just getting it to run. The "start" area is really worn on the digital pad, so no doubt the problem was there for the previous owner, too.

In my previous home up North, I had an appliance repair woman tell me to never buy a dishwasher with a digital pad because they are so expensive to replace, you may as well buy a new dishwasher. Go for the push button models, she said. And yes, will try to do that for the next go around, but I wonder what the odds are in finding one in bisque. Whose idea was it to put bisque appliances in many of these homes?
