So the "fails to complete a cycle without erroring out" rate finally seems to have reached 100%, on the Samsung dishwasher that came with the house.
What do I need to know when picking a new one, and/or what models do y'all recommend?
I'll take recommendations about how to fix the current one too, I guess, but I already got advice from an appliance repair man, who basically said "it would need a new control board, I.E. ditch it." The error code it's giving is supposedly about insufficient water or water flow, but the water feed is completely fine, as far as I can tell.
Did you check the little filter that you might have on the thing that connects the hose to the valve? There might also be one on the other end, but most of the time there isn't. It could be that the aquastop if you have one (the bulky thing on the end of the hose) malfunctions.
I bought a AEG and i like it so far, especially for the price.
