After several hours of looking on-line, I am more confused than when I started. Very few models of any brand get five stars. Even the ones that score better, have a low score and comments from a few people. I know this is the same with anything you look up for a rating. So, does anyone have any suggestions in a make and model that has been somewhat recently purchased and is a great choice? Thank you for any input!
Bosch dishwashers are rated highest in Consumer Reports this past year and in previous years.
We have a Bosch in our MI home. We've had this one for 6 years with no problems. It is much quieter than the GE that we have in The Villages. That one had a recall for the heating element. Based on Consumer Reports Reliability/repair-wise they are rated pretty high along with Whirlpool. Reliability was rated poor for Maytag and LG. See page 56-59 in the 2013 CR Buying guide or go online for more info.
