When the cabinets were initially installed, they had put a 15' cabinet to each side of the hood, but that left the spacing between the hood and the side cabinets 7' on one side and 4' on the other, making the hood off center. Now, if you will excuse me, it is time for me to go empty my dishwasher and hand wash what is still dirty.Īlso, of note in this deal is that upon my initial design and ordering, I have a hood located over the range with cabinets to each side that were to be spaced evenly from the hood. We got two rebates which we thought was a great deal. So, my question for all/any of you is.anyone else have issues with this machine? We got it based on Consumer Reports rating and $$. This unit is a replacement for a 14 year old Maytag that never had an issue with leaving food, grit or avocado behind on a plate or dish.same water temp and pressure. I had a chat with someone at the KitchenAid web site who questioned my water pressure, water temp as well as any clogs that I could see at the bottom of the unit. I have contacted the installer who has said that everything checks out on his end. In this unit I have been using Polmolive Eco and have just tried Trader Joes power, always with a rinse aid. I know that Cascade is the recommended detergent but I have a very bad history with our soft water and Cascade = etching on glass and china that resulted in having to toss several otherwise perfectly good pieces. Food is left on but has been turned into a fine, baked on grit that is all over the surfaces of 45% of everything on the top rack. It sucks!Įach and every wash cycle I have run has resulted in several items needing to be hand washed.

We just had a brand new Kitchen Aid Dishwasher installed on NovemModel # KUDS301XBT9.
