Dishwasher horror and success stories please.

[BigV]

I have a Hotpoint dishwasher right now that I bought used, and installed myself. That was at least ten years ago. I have installed a couple of them, they're not especially difficult to install, except the clearance for the plumbing/electrical when sliding it in under the counter can be difficult.

I don't have any experience with repairs, really. I've cleaned the filters, repaired (reconnected the clips, wheels, etc) racks, cleaned pipes and vents all myself. No warranty, and no giant investment to justify a repairman. But also no problems that necessitated one.

Good luck.
