Hotpoint HDA1100NWH Full Console

We bought our Hotpoint dishwasher about 3 months ago. We had an old dishwasher which had served us well for years, but it was on it's last legs. We found this Hotpoint for an incredibly reasonable price(about 200 dollars!) and we were especially impressed with the bonus features we got in a machine which was priced so low.
The best thing, in my opinion, is that this dishwasher is incredibly quiet, making very little noise even when it's at the height of the wash cycle. It has a 4 level "powerscrub" system, which does an incredibly efficient job on cleaning the dishes. I especially like what they call the "Piranha hard food disposer".
When previously you might have had those bits of food which stubbornly cling to the plates, and then get washed off only to linger in the bottom of the dishwasher(yuck!), this eliminates that problem. I have yet to find any food clinging to the plates or in the bottom of the dishwasher either, so I'd call it a great success!
You don't have to do a lot of prewashing, either, this dishwasher can handle pretty much any dishes you can throw at it, including pots and pans. It does a good job of drying as well, when the dishes are done, they are dry, clean, and best of all, without spots!
We use our dishwasher pretty heavily, running it at least twice a day(with kids in the house, there's no avoiding it!), and we have had only success with this dishwasher.
It's very reliable, and I would recommend it to anyone. If you're looking for a basic bargain priced dishwasher that is reliable, quiet, and efficient , this is a good choice for you.
