Abstract: Your dishwasher, if it works well, is a hardworking appliance you hardly think about. It starts chock-full of dirty dishes, and quickly turns them sparkling clean. When your dishwasher doesn't work well, though, it's a daily annoyance of pre-washing (and re-washing!) dishes. If you're doing the work for your dishwasher, that's when you know it's time for a new one.
