Drying Cycle.
Yes, I always leave the heat on. The KDS-19 did NOT have a heated dry. Just the fan that pulsed on and off every 5 minutes. The 19 did a terrible job of drying plastic.
This 20 however does a darn good job. But it's rare that Plastics come out Bone Dry on any machine (In my own Opinion).

OMG that thing cleans like a champion! Again, congratulations Eddie - you struck gold there for sure!!

What was said earlier by Allen "Whirlcool" about people feeling it is easier to wash dishes by hand is true of my oldest sister and her husband. True, they have a BOL Frigidaire/Electrolux dw, but with proper loading I've proven to her that it can do a decent job. She claims that she can notice a significant jump on their electric & water rates when the dw is used. Although there may be a slight uptick in electric usage, I've tried to show her that their water consumption would actually decrease, but she's convinced otherwise. Oh well, I tried.

I can't believe how clean that pot came out! I am shocked.
Is that a Le creuset pot? I didn't know they were dishwasher safe.

The Pot
@ Whitetub...
It like Le creuset, it's called Chantal and I just got it as a gift. And the tag said "Dishwasher cleaning is NOT recommended".
So of course I did. It did not harm the finish. It is Porcelain Enamel.(The same as the Wash Chamber of the KitchenAid)So I figured "What the Heck ???"

It did a great job. Keep on putting it in then. But I think if there are any part of the pot that is not coated by the enamel, it might rust. Like the top edge of the pot. It must be cast iron underneath the porcelain.
Anyways, great dishwasher. It's sad that they don't build them like that anymore.

That's a great find, Eddie.
I found one at Habitat For Humanity last year. It wasn't as nice as yours but by the time I got done with it it almost was. And the great thing about it was, I was wandering through an old local hardware and appliance parts store shortly afterwards and found all kinds of replacement parts. I couldn't believe it. A new wash arm support, four-way hydro-sweep, the original water valves, door gaskets and I can't remember what else. Between those new parts and the parts from our old machines, there's enough to keep a KDS-20 going for a hundred years. But I won't be here to keep 'em going though.
Maybe I can get my nephew interested someday? If you haven't seen it already, it's thread #31983

Non-Dishwasher Safe
I hate that crap. Washing that stuff by hand when the d/w's half full and then running the machine. Makes me mad. Except for the old cast iron skillets and dutch oven I have, everything else goes in there or it goes in the trash.

Pallet Wrap...
I get it from my Produce Warehouse. (Where I used to work)
As far as Pre Rinse Washing, I never did that. A Dishwasher has to wash dishes. I don't anymore have Cast iron , but most of my Cookoing Utensils are Stainless or Dishwasher Safe in my eyes.
