AMKrayoGuy the Samsung King and his new Dishwasher!

[daveamkrayoguy]

didn’t even know it was on, the inaugural cycle is a short one run empty, so i hope capacity and performance in the upcoming load will speak excellently for itself... the old one’s control board was on the verge of separating from its gasket, as had there. been a water leak in one corner under the door, requiring a bit of guff to latch...

Congratulations. Let us know how it compares to the old dishwasher.

 

[daveamkrayoguy]

Well here's how she cleans:

This is actually the second load I've done, the first turned out near excellent but it was excessively wet in there despite using a rinse aid, so after applying it in the dispenser the supposedly right way, the dampness is under control, just need to empty her...

Also the initial load was on Heavy Wash which I used again, only this time with the Sanitize, Storm Wash and even Extra Hot Wash Booster...

Does this have regular spray arms, or that water wall contraption?

 

[chachp]

Waterwall contraption..

 

<span style="font-family: helvetica;">A friend of mine has/had one and loved it until recently it took on a life of it's own.  It goes sometimes, other times it doesn't  and sometimes it throws an error that it's blocked when its not.  I think he replaced it.</span>

 

<span style="font-family: helvetica;">I think the one in this thread is a regular wash arm machine.</span>

It looks like that load deserves a BobLoad certification

Rinse aid

"it was excessively wet in there despite using a rinse aid, so after applying it in the dispenser the supposedly right way, the dampness is under control"

How were you using the rinse aid in the first load? and what is the "supposed" right way?

new SS DW

The dishes do-not even look dirty, how do you know it cleaned anything ?

I could never load a dishwasher like that. It's how do you expecto to wash plate on top of plate correctly. I have a point voyager that cleans really well but I would never think of expecting any dishwasher to clean item on top of item.

 

[DADoES]

 
Items atop others will wash adequately if there's space around/between the lower items for the water spray to pass.

 

[eronie]

That's how a single arm KitichenAid did it!!

 

[daveamkrayoguy]

Well, here is how.I put the rinse aid in just so I know how much is directly going in rather an endless amount that doesn't let me see when I just put it in a hole, and like I said, it's been much dyer in there...

The stuff's clean, and even a plastic pitcher that wouldn't fit in the top rack came out perfect without being melted or deformed in the bottom...

[No message]

 

[Taurn67]

your kidding right?

you add it at the start of the cycle with detergent?

 

[daveamkrayoguy]

Well, when is the best time to put it in, and I’ll solemnly swear to put in in the hole of the dispenser and stop when it overfills which I’m surprised is after a few drops...

[Taurn67]

read your manual. then read it again.

Rinse aid goes in the last rinse. From what I see, your dispenser is empty, fill it where the lines are beside the "MAX", not the little hole.

 

[DADoES]

Dave, your dishwasher has an automatic rinse air reservoir dispenser. It's not a one-shot thing separately for each load.

You fill it with however much rinse aid it takes to the Full mark and then it dispenses automatically at the appropriate time (last rinse). It doesn't need to be refilled until it's near empty, a reminder signal should appear on the control panel.

There's usually an adjustment to increase or decrease how much is released at each shot according to factors such as water hardness and what drying performance you want to get out of it. It may be a mechanical adjustment directly on the dispenser, or it may be an electronic adjustment through the control panel. Details should be in your Instruction Manual.

 

[daveamkrayoguy]

Get this: My Samsung sings "How Dry Am I"!

Well, this time I didn't pour any (more) rinse aid in and this load came out completely dry...

Whatever was only a little annoyingly wet I just set in the dish drainer, just as with my old dishwasher...

Dishwasher Load Pictures

If you are going to do Bob Load pictures you need to do before and after pictures so we can see the results, otherwise we are just looking at a DW full of clean dishes, not interesting.

[daveamkrayoguy]

okay, if you don’t get grossed out I can show you a dirty load then, I would love to...

& After:

[daveamkrayoguy]

Another before:

Well, one plate short of a full load, which it finally got:

As for the after, I'd better bend over, I "clean" forgot right when that last clean fork got put in the drawer and that last dirty coffee mug got placed in the top rack, before I realized I was supposed to take those pics...

-- Dave

 

[daveamkrayoguy]

Here's a before/after with third rack removed to accommodate some large items and luckily didn't have any real small items that would get lost without it as much as with a cake I baked and messy pasta going through my colander needed to get an "all of a sudden full load" done:

No hand washing for Dave

Wow Dave looks like your new machine can accommodate all your preparation dishes, utensils, cookware, tableware and leave you with no sink washing leaving you only to put away at the finish, very impressive, enjoy.

 

[daveamkrayoguy]

Every lick it you, lick!--Ick!

Ah, yes---about the only thing I can't put in there is my ice cream scoop with the anti-freeze built into the handle, but I don't like washing anything by hand, so with me being the only one who uses it, just found some other "method" to getting the melted scooped ice cream off without soap, water and dish pan hands, since I'll never even need another dish pan again...

Besides, the ice cream right off of it tastes the best!
