Apparently they do better in the Netherlands. On the Dutch website "Kieskeurig" (similar to Epinions) their washing machines get very high ratings:

My experience selling Samsung dishwashers leaves a lot to be desired. Ho hum |

Now that there are more videos of this on the internet...
The water shoots out from 6 holes in a distributor arm in the back of the machine into the moving water wall arm. Any chance of this getting clogged up? Is it easy to remove and clean out to keep the 6 jet holes aimed properly? What is the mechanism that moves the water wall arm back and forth? Since the distributor arm appears to takes up a lot of space in the back of the machine, how to items placed back there get cleaned, since the water wall can't get all the way back? If the water wall arm gets blocked, how would the movement mechanism be damaged? What's the water pressure like for the different cycles? It must be significant to get across the bottom of the tank when the water wall is furthest away. No food grinder... Filtering system... Rinse water getting sucked through the gunk... Dishes are really clean? |

Watching it work, it reminds of of the scanner I use with my computer. I wonder if these DW use the same technology. i.e. cables and motors to move the wash arm. |

people probably post the same threads because it gets so far down they don't realize it's already been posted.
At any rate, it does look like of cool to me, but when they put the cam to the side/top, I'm not sure sure the water is getting at the very top very well. I can't imagine items in that top tray getting clean, only because it doesn't look like enough pressure toward the top. |

The bottom sprayer does not have to reach all the way up - there're two more spray arms. I posted a video of this dishwasher here (reply #22)

I love how the media is just eating this up. Sadly, human society is too easily impressed these days by gimmicks and advertising. There is a reason that with all the "innovations" made to the method of spraying water, dishwashers have always reverted back to rotating wash arms, and for good reason; if something is not broken, and it works well, don't fix it. I looked at this machine hands-on at Lowe's the other day. The track that the "deflector" rides on is flimsy, and as far as the scanner comparison someone stated earlier, the rubber belt that moves it back and forth is exactly like the ones in scanners and printers, in addition to the fact that it's exposed underneath the track. What's going to happen in a couple of years when steam and splattered debris start causing mold and rot? That is if the rubber belt doesn't disintegrate from heat in general before that happens. Also, even in the alternating arm systems by Bosch and Whirlpool, the spray from the bottom arm has enough force to hit the top of the tub without dishes, but this so called WaterWall barely has enough to reach the top rack. Yes, the upper rack has a dedicated wash arm, but that's not the point. If the spray can't even reach the top of the tub, how will it have the power to peel off dried soil and gunky foods like peanut butter?

That's also a good point. A traditional wash arm makes a full rotation every 1.5 to 3 seconds, which means in that time, each side of the arm has made a pass under the dishes. In 30-45 minutes time (normal Main Wash time for dishwashers that don't alternate racks, and that's probably pushing it even) that's a lot of revolutions, and a lot of sprays delivered. This looks like much more time goes by between passes, which means that unless the cycle times for this machine have also been substantially increased, that's not even as much wash action frequency as resource-saving models now.
