As an FF7 Owner I can't imagine the programming is much different in the commercial machines vs. the residential models. I going to hazard a guess that the default cycle on the machines you'll be receiving is the Normal Cycle. On mine (labeled Normal Eco) the default program time for that cycle...

Short rinses When I was shopping around for a new washer a few years back I had my search narrowed down to either a Speed Queen or an Asko. My one main concern with the SQ's was the incredibly short rinse cycles (I watched as many Youtube videos as I could find on them). I was worried that the...

Interim Spins I don't necessarily think it is suds-locking it's more of water-locking issue. Those flannel sheets absorb so much water that when the washer starts to really get going in the spin, more water comes out of the load than it can pump away. Which is why you see it cascading down the...

Cavitating pump When you hear this cavitation, do you ever open the door and see if the bottom is full of suds? When I had my Kitchen Aid, some dishwasher pods, in particular Cascade Platinum, would cause a fair amount sudsing to occur and as a result, the pump would cavitate. Generally by the...

Quick Intense with Auto Open Drying Hi Bob, When you run the Quick Intense wash, the door will remain closed for upwards of 30 mins or so after the cycle is complete. If you don't open the door yourself, it'll do so automatically. My dishwasher has front controls and at the end of the cycle...

Miele G7106 here Hey Bob! Congrats on your new Miele dishwasher! They are great machines if a little quirky with the loading. But once you get the hang of it, you'll be amazed at how much you can get in there. Like you I added the second interim rinse to mine as well. I included some pictures...

Finish Ultimate I purchased a small bag of them about 2 weeks ago and have had absolutely brilliant results. Out of all Finish and Cascade products, these do foam a lot less and my glassware is crystal clear. Haven't had any trouble with dishes not getting clean, even the very dirty stuff.

I see no difference either But I do love the bottle cap design. You can open it, flip it over and nothing drips or leaks out unless you squeeze the bottle. I saved my bottle from the last time I purchased it and decanted my Jet Dry into that. It makes filling the rinse aid dispenser so much...

My SQ FF7 My Speed Queen FL will fill the entire bottom of the tub to just an inch or so below the tub opening on all cycle except "Sanitize with Oxi". That cycle fills up to the bottom of the door for the Soak (if added), PreWash (if added), and Main Wash portions; rinses are at the normal...

Mine too I can confirm that my 6 month old SQ FL'er does this as well. But it will do it regardless of water temp selection. I have observed that the water level stays below the door but the water level does start to climb when the washer pauses between tumbles. I guess it's conceivable that if...

Did you notice... The Miele and Electrolux canister vacs when he goes from present day to the GE set? Thought that was pretty neat. Since we're on the subject of Downy, has anyone purchased a bottle of the April Fresh in the last few months? I swore the stuff off when P&G ruined the fragrance...

Lakewebsterkid - Cascade Platinum I like them a lot. I haven't used the regular pacs in several years. But these do an outstanding job especially, on my stainless steel All-Clad pots and pans. It makes them look like I scoured them by hand. I do have a container of Cascade Complete pods which I...

Tonight's contribution... It took two days to fill her up but here is my BobLoad(r). Cycle selection is: ProWash, Sani Rinse, and ProDry. Detergent is a Cascade Platinum Plus pac.

Here's my contribution These were taken a while back...

KDTM354DSS - Closeout model According to the Kitchen Aid site this model you're looking at is a closeout. I noticed looking at the pictures of the machine on their site, the venting configuration is different from mine; which could be why the parts diagram you're seeing has the vent in the...

@chetlaham You're very welcome! I'll try to answer your questions the best I can: 1) The spray arms do alternate. I haven't found an occasion yet where they both spray at the same time. As far as the filtering mechanism: I can only imagine that if a ball bearing somehow made it passed the...

Self Cleaning Filter animation Here is an animation I found on the Whirlpool training site that shows how the Clean Water Wash system works. They also have a few other videos on there which are insightful...

Sump area & General pics Here are some pics of the sump area as well as couple of general pics. I have never done the coffee ground test but I can tell you that I've never found food particles in the bottom of coffee mugs or anything else that holds water. As far as the exposed heating element...

Vote for Kitchen Aid I have had the KA KDPM354GPS with the self cleaning filter for just over a year now and I really like it. The only thing I ever find that I have to clean is the Coarse strainer if something too large was left on the dishes; that's it. The dishwasher cleans very well and...

Agnolotti Thank you so much for you detailed reply Freddy, very helpful indeed! I don't blame you for not disclosing your secret ingredient. I make an apple cake that that I add a secret flavoring too that I won't share with anyone! lol
