Have you considered looking on CL for a relatively new Kenmore/Whirlpool UltraWash/PowerClean STANDARD TUB machine. These were discontinued about 2 years ago but were one of the best performing dishwashers ever made. I've picked up 3 of them in the last year (for between $100 & $150) and installed them for friends and family who had new-ish machines that were performing poorly. Also, the true Kenmore/WP tall tub machines that were made from about 2001 on were decent performers for the price. In fact i have one in storage if you might be interested... LOL

We have an LG and its really good. I know many people hate LG but I have an LG washer, dryer and dishwasher and they're all brilliant. Otherwise a whirlpool |

We have put Frigidaire's in other rental properties, I'm going to have to respectfully disagree I think the GE cleans great. But to each his own... |

Regarding the "wash tower" dishwashers. When I first moved in this house in 2004 (brand new) there was a BOL Whirlpool dishwasher with the center wash tower and two buttons on the console (On/off) heated dry and the mechanical dial.
It was loud, but you could REALLY hear the water sloshing around and it DID clean well! So I'm assuming that the GE wash tower BOL is very similar and probably cleans well too, but I've never owned a modern GE dishwasher. I sold that dishwasher to my friend who lives across town and purchased a MOL WP dishwasher in 2005. Her dishwasher and mine are still going. I would get a MOL Maytag with Stainless interior. For some reason, the Maytag brand (even though WP), you seem to get a little bit more for less price. Not sure why |

That is a good choice but if you have granite counters they can't install it and I had to exchange it for a L.G. dishwasher which as been a great dishwasher for me,yes I know everybody trashes them in here but I use mine like a old Maytag Reverse rack.You will be happy with your Maytag though we some of those in our rentals.. |
