I've read that too, and reviewers note it as a drawback. I don't want an
"eco" dishwasher. I always leave ours on the sanitizer cycle and high-temp
scrub.
We'll go looking at dishwashers this weekend. But unless the Miele is some
sort of dishwasher from God, maybe I have to keep fixing this POS for now.
I guess an hour's repair and $200 of parts to buy another 5 years might be
OK after all. But it sure isn't like the old ones were.
That statement in "The Graduate" was prophetic: "One word -- PLASTICS".
If he'd have thrown in "cheapen everything and make it overseas" he'd have
described US manufacturing in the last quarter of the 20th century and
beyond.

The latter point is why we stuck with Kitchenaid for our latest go-round in
2003.
