Jenn-Air JDB2150AWP 24 in. Built-in Dishwasher

Pros: Looks, looks, looks Quiet, quiet, quiet
Cons: Expensive. Some of the (many) settings are redundant.

I hate appliances with membrane pad push buttons. This machine is basically a high-end Maytag with a big, sturdy cycle knob and real push buttons. The handle is also sturdy and machined from stainless steel. This unit would look perfectly at home in a research lab. Inside, it is a typical Maytag in terms of racks and sprayers. I liked that, because Maytag parts are plentiful. The unit is said to feature a better insulation package than the Maytags, and I don't doubt that. It is very, very quiet in all phases of the cycle. Yes, it is much more expensive than a 'tag, but go see one before you decide to buy something less, or perish the thought, one of those European brands.
I've had it for about 9 months now. It just came out when I bought it. It does about a load a day. No problems so far.

UPDATE 5/8/2007. Fortunately, it's still beautiful and quiet. Still doing a load a day. Cleans very well, especially on the intense cycles. Just need to get the big chunks off the dishes first.

Pros: Looks nice
Cons: Wish it would function properly

This came new with my house 4 years ago. The knob got stuck on the sani-rinse cycle - got repaired. Then 3 months laters the heating element got so hot it melted everything plastic in it, including it's own washing arm, the lower housing, the utensil baskets have wholes melted in them and plastic bowls melted onto the rack into several plastic balls which are not removable from the rack. The repair man said it's unrepairable.
