    Whirlpool WTW4816FW2 Cycle Description

    the frontal loader... In the garage...if I sell and move, it stays with the house...it didn't use as much water as my prior LG, and made its own options of temperatures, despite what was selected...I use Delicate a lot, and it wouldn't spin after the wash...and spinning was another issue, along...

    KitchenAid Convertible POD 10/14

    Noticing the loading on the bottom rack of the center photo...plates and bowls facing the right...growing up with a GE, I always loaded the bottom rack facing the center...did the bowls on the far right facing the dishwasher wall come clean in a KitchenAid?

    Best Performing Vintage (Pre 2000) Dishwasher Model Ever!

    White-Westinghouse, back in the 80's... had a similar test, placing a poppy seed cake in an empty dishwasher...simultaneously, they would run the front loader with the towel tied up with sand, and prepare steaks on the no-turn speed broil...all made for a fancy sales demo in the office.

    Fun thread, favorite dishwasher detergent?

    I have a year-old Maytag, and it has a strange detergent dispenser design...I can't use liquids or gels, as they will dribble out of the dispenser before the main wash...powders will be partially diluted as water enters the dispenser during the prewash...Cascade pods create suds...so, I use...

    kitchenaid dishwasher model #KDFE104HPS

    Maytag MDB4949 I bought the Maytag a few months back due to the self-cleaning filter...the first one had a loud buzz from the pump and had to be replaced...the washing is just ok...I have tried baked-on casseroles on the max cycle and heat, and they are still dirty...it is very quiet...the...

    Premature Sudsulation

    update Running the Maytag on the "Auto" cycle, "High Temp" option, with a Powerball...no suds, and the initial rinse lasted 8-10 minutes...drained, then filled for the main wash... heard the dispenser open, and the Powerball dropped (opened to ensure)...main wash lasted 5-6 minutes, less than...

    Premature Sudsulation

    Finish David, that's good to know, and makes sense. I bought the Powerballs and will try them tonight. When I opened the machine after about 5 minutes using Cascade, still in the pre-rinse, there were suds, and I opened the dispenser. The pod had essentially dissolved, so I suspect in the main...

    Premature Sudsulation

    Thanks John... I appreciate your input. But I suspect with this Maytag, the detergent will have dissolved in the initial wash/rinse. It just doesn't make sense to me. Are other dishwashers designed in a similar fashion? BTW, I chose the Maytag based on your recommendations. No second thoughts...

    Premature Sudsulation

    surprise surprise I checked the dispenser with a mirror and flashlight. Even though the closing mimics a tight seal, there are openings on both sides of the dispenser allowing water to come in, go out. This design seems counter-productive.

    Premature Sudsulation

    leaky dispenser Thanks for the replies, I'll get some Finish tabs today. What surprised me was how the dispenser, which seems to have a tight seal, was filled with water and the subsequent dissolved pac before it opened in the wash cycle.

    Premature Sudsulation

    Greetings! A few months back, I bought a Maytag MDB4949 dishwasher, to replace a Frigidaire. I chose this model for the self-cleaning filter feature. I have a water softener, and couldn't use the Cascade Platinum pacs in the Frigidaire due to foam. Still have the container of Cascade, and have...
