Not being sarcastic or facetious, but do food particles still dissolve on the 1 hour cycle? Will the filter clog up after constant use of the 1 hour cycle?

POST # 80 ???
Or perhaps, they are realistic enough to know that the function of a dishwasher is to clean dishes.
Right, because people want their dishes done in an hour. I think the constant use of the 1 hour cycle speaks for itself as to what consumers actually want and need.
People pre-rinse due to the fact so many US dishwashers lacked fine filters, long enough main washes, ample hot water, maceration and good water distribution. Every single dishwasher outside of the Whirlpool Power Clean Filter Module, high end Maytag Jet Cleans, some Kitchen-Aids and the GSD2800 lacked in some or all these categories.
US Dishwashers become the best in the world, by far when the Whirlpool Power Clean Filter Module and Maytag JetClean with the long heated main wash came to the market. After that, they've become some of the worst in the world.
Plastic bits do not belong in any dishwasher. Just like they should not go in a garbage disposal. This I would actually call user error.
I think used properly is a relative word in this thread with variable goal posts.
Still can't do what a Power Clean can do.
1/16th house power vs 1/3 horse power. What a tragedy.
Many people who loaded as is with a Power Clean Filter Module share experiences similar to Pat.
Power Clean = clean dishes, no smells, nothing left behind
Tall tubs = food bits at the bottom of the machine, clogged filters, smells, mediocre wash results.
So people pre-rinse now...
People are not pre-rinsing now versus what they did in the past, current dishwasher’s work better overall than dishwashers ever worked the combination of better detergent better cycle programming longer cycles has made for superior dishwashers worldwide.
Plus, the idea has been hammered in that you do not need to pre-rinse both from manufacturers and environmental groups detergent makers nobody recommends pre-rinsing so i Definitely see far less people pre-rinsing dishes today.
Chet you need to get out in the real world and deal with customers and people either in sales repair design or something and stop getting your information off people who whine on the Internet. That’s not a statistically accurate sample.

Bosch has always had a removable filter even on US models. Many GE have also. I think the Nautilus one from the 90s, too. It was at the back of the tub. More of a screen pocket. My GE has an oval one. Not a fine filter, but for larger things.
I am glad you have signed and sealed your statements. Going by your own admissions people are using the 1 hour cycle, pre-rinsing, and filters are getting clogged.
Appliance makers, detergent manufacturers and environmental groups are free to say what they say too.
Our KDI-17a was initially used every day. No prerinsing.
The parents slacked off on use of it for the two of them after the offspring exited from home.
The 2002 GE that replaced it didn't get much use other than holiday gatherings. I never prerinsed for it, can't say what mom/dad did on their occasions of using it. It was prit'much like new when ...
.... replaced by a WP last Nov 2024 as part of sister and SIL refurbing/updating the house in preparation for moving in with mom. It's on the pattern of use only during gathering/visits. They primarily use paper plates, although not so much disposable drinkware and utensils. It's a mystery to me. Plenty dishware there.

Ask the people who lost homes and families in the wildfires and the earthquakes and the mudslides and floods that are happening all over the globe right now how the Earth is doing

Yikes! I have to agree, that is a terrible place to put a filter at in a dishwasher. And I-yi-yi, I was just reading over the comments in the videos, this is a very common problem. I don't feel comfortable now buying one of those dishwashers.

If you can’t see how your comment was racist and could come across as offensive, there’s nothing more I can say.
Which is all caused by global warming… but that is perhaps a topic which should be discussed on the paid forums without digressing too much from here.

Not sarcastic/facetious at all. Yes, they do. It will use a third more water and higher pressure in the wash to achieve the same results, with the trade off of using slightly more energy to heat the water, and ever so slightly more noise with the high pressure. Soils are still held in suspension in the sump, and pumped away at the end of the wash.
You can even use the “extra clean” option on the quicker cycles to add a prewash and a rinse, which adds about 15 mins or so to the cycle off the top of my head.
I would gladly love to discuss it at length
No, I don't read racism into it. Should we live a life void of offense ? Many people here offended me by the things they said, but it's okay. I don't take any of it personally. I'll still love on the haters.
Yes and it was global freezing in the '70s and acid rain in the '80s and I have no idea in the '90s or now..... It's all control of YOUR life Jon....wake up.
That is a nice feature, speed is a good thing and great that option is offered. I wouldn't worry about the slightly more energy used.
In the 90s it was the hole in the ozone layer, caused by the government using CFC to clean their wings. Guess who took the blame? Consumer refrigerants.
