Well, I didn't wind up taking pics of full-on dirty loads, but here are some shots of the machine and things it will hold. This won't impress those of you who all ready have tall-tub machines, but I'm amazed!

What I like: SS tall-tub, extremely versatile loading options, adjustable/removable upper rack, very quiet operation, cleaning ability (especially noticeable with crusty pots and pans), 38-minute Insta Wash cycle

What I don't like: no countdown timer or cycle progress lights, 160 Degree Wash option is actually a 160 degree rinse option

I brine turkey before roasting in a 7-gallon plastic tub. It is 13" tall nad 16" across the top. It wouldn't fit in my previous DW. The upper rack is in the upper position in this pic. The roasting pan for the turkey is 14-1/2" x 17". It fits along the side, and it came out clean!

Here are the cycle pads. The NORMAL WASH cycle clocks in at 1 hour 50 minutes, with an incoming water temp of 140 degrees. The HEAVY WASH cycle using HEATED WASH and 160 DEGREE WASH options clocked in at 2 hours 18 minutes. The INSTA WASH cycle takes 38 minutes and allows no options. Haven't used the sensor-controlled AUTO CLEAN cycle yet. The operation manual says that the sensor is active in both NORMAL and AUTO CLEAN cycles.

And here are the cycle options. HEATED DRY and HEATED WASH options are automatically chosen for AUTO CLEAN, HEAVY and NORMAL cycles. TOUGH SCRUB PLUS increases water temp and wash time.

Just for fun, I 'christmas-treed' the HEAVY cycle (used all the options at once). It clocked in at 2 hours 30 minutes.

Eugene you have captured the sheer flexibility of this Maytag. I'm not even sure the GE Tall Tub culd do this, but wish I could give it a try if I had one.
 
I have to say I'm pretty impressed with this machine, too. I've been cooking for a lot of company so the DW has been running almost constantly the past few days. It is definitely the quietest DW I've ever owned. I can't imagine how quiet a Bosch must be! But mainly, I'm happy with its capacity and loading flexibility for out-sized items.
