I too have come to evangelize for Bosch. Here's a game you should play when you are looking at new model dishwashers. Pay attention to what the button layout looks like between brands. Then look inside at the racks and general hardware. You'll start to notice that they are all essentially the same model with slightly different features, but wildly different prices. I swear they are all made in the same factories but one gets they maytag treatment and one gets the whirlpool. Then look at the Bosch and you should notice how weirdly different it is overall. My Bosch has been reliable as rain and has never gotten moldy or stinky or anything like that.
