Also a true HOBART! No one knows dishwashers better than them. The vast majority of Chefs(such as myself) and Ecolab guys would agree. Many consider this to be Hobart's best residential dishwasher. Just remember that this is a commercial dishwasher at heart. It needs a reliable source of 140f water and you will have to scrape the dishes before they go into the machine. WK78 |

Why do you say it needs a reliable source of 140f water? Does it not heat the water? And why do you have to scrape the dishes in this model? Not that I would put huge chunks of anything in any dishwasher but I general don't rinse or scrape and in most of the KitchenAids I have used that has not been an issue. The 18 series is about the only one I don't have any experience using.

The pump of this machine is designed to wash and sanitize not grind up mounds of garbage. NO commercial DW pump is meant to. This does not mean that the machine can't handle a large load of VERY dirty dishes. However if large bits of food are on the dishes they will be in the filter when the cycle ends. WK78 |
