Anybody recently bought an automatic dishwasher you love?  I'm researching a new one for us.

I used to have a larger Whirlpool. It was sufficient. Thats the best I can say about it. Now I have a smaller make Whirlpool It is not so good at all. Every thing  need so be prerinsed before loading.

We decided on replacing our stove, fridge and dishwasher last April. The dishwasher came with the house, and was about 10 years old, and leaking.

We bought a higher-capacity GE model, which I love.  The footprint is the same size, but the interior is arranged such that you can put taller stuff in it, and there's a stemware rack (which can be flipped down when not needed).

I think this is the one (from Home Depot):

All the kitchen appliances that came with our house are Kenmore and work good.  Nothing super fancy; but they do what we need them to.  Our house was completed in October of 2008 but we didn't purchase it till the next June.  So I assume they are 2008 models.

Anybody have the Consumer Reports article from last year with ratings, etc.?  From what I can find, the recommended in the lower range a Kenmore dishwasher.

I'm willing to pay for a better-grade unit.  The one we have is very basic, and it's been serving us now for almost 15 years (new in 1997).  It still works, but a lot of things have changed since then.

I've found a GE, a Frigidaire, and a Bosch that I like.
