Congratulations Austin. I'm very proud of you. Now, the no pre-rinse support group is in session. Your mom has a standing appointment. Now you know why Todd and Greg don't have food bits in the filters of their Bosch & Asko, respectively. The food is varporized. Todd is convinced if he put a car engine in it, it would come out show room brand new. | ||

vaporization It could be because Cascade claims that their detergent "dissolves" food particles. | ||

Vaporizing action As guilty as I feel about not pre-rinsing, this dw sure gets 'em clean! Guess we better be careful with that Cascade. I wouldn't want to drop any on the floor. It might dissolve the foundation. LOL | ||

Austin, I love your new dishwasher...I got the exact same one a couple of months ago! I think the cascade does vaporize the food particles. I never rinse, though someone in the house tends to put plates into the sink and fill them with water to soak...a hold over from the old dishwasher days. The filter is always clean, as is the large object trap. As far as I can tell, every time I have run the dishwasher, it has deleted a water change. After the first quick 1 minute rinse on the normal cycle, it does not change the water again before adding the detergent. I have been surprised that the water is not very dirty at all after the quick rinse. Everything has always come out spotless. I have medium hard water, and fill the detergent cup up to the 25ml line. Good luck with your new dishwasher! Joe | ||

Venus, There is nothing like a good cheesesteak! The big question is, which is better, Pat's or Geno's? Pat's http://www.patskingofsteaks.com Geno's http://www.genosteaks.com I have been keeping one side of the silverware basket's lid down, and putting each piece in its own slot. I thought it would be cumbersome at first, but now it is not a problem. I put knives in with handles up, and the rest will only fit handles down through the slots. So far, so good! Joe | ||

Great dishwasher! Thanks for the pics----and in what can only be described as a weird coincidence, I just put a load in my dishwasher with a 10" chef's knife in the top rack and one of those plastic slotted plate covers for the microwave in the bottom rack. Unfortunately, my new Frigidaire doesn't have a spiffy stainless steel interior. It's a good-looking machine, Austin. Congrats on getting rid of your Hotpoint!

Great pictures, great dishwasher! I also load the knives with the sharp side down. The same goes for the forks, fortunately mine don't fall through the openings of the basket. My dishwasher came with a grid too. My old flatware (cutlery) didn't fit into it, so I never used it. Last week I bought a new set and this set does fit in, but after using the grid a few times I threw it out again, I really hated that thing. Loading and unloading without that darn thing is just way easier.

Knives in the d/w Guilty as charged. Then again, if I had sharp knives, I would be dangerous (not to mention missing several digits). | ||
