Gotta A Kenmore -- Love It!

I bought my Kenmore over 10 years ago; she works like a dream -- still! Best part, I think, is that the appliance was on sale, so I was able to purchase a 3-year added warranty for the difference! As it worked out, however, the extended warranty was unnecessary. The only problem I have had is that the dispenser no longer works (this problem appeared well after 3+ years). No problem: I just fill the slot, then proceed as usual. The dishes have been immerging clean, clean, clean for many, many years.

I would suggest that you consider purchasing an appliance with the built-in ability to heat your water to the necessary temperature. This saves a tremendous amount of $$$ since only the water used is heated, not your entire water heater's capacity! Another item I will make sure to look for next time is a water-saving unit (in CA, water gets expensive during periods of drought).

No matter what, good luck with your purchase; you'll find precisely what you seek (and probably at an excellent price as well!).

Cheers!
