Hi all. After working quite well for a very long time, quite sometime back my Superba started filling with water only during first rinse, and no water on later cycles. I didn't try it again for over a year, and now it's not bringing in any water on any cycles. From my reading here, the strong...

Hi. My KDS-18 is suddenly not filling at all. If there's any water it's extremely minimal. I can hear the motor going fine, so I'm assuming a problem with the fill valve.

Hi all. I have a working KDS-18 with a KDS-20 manual. I'm trying to find out what specification differences there are between the two units. In particular, are the water usage estimates for the various cycles the same (or similar) between the 18 and 20? What important differences are there...
