I Don't Fix Dishwashers. These Are the Only 3 I'd Buy.

I fix washers and dryers — I don't fix dishwashers. I did for a while, then I quit on purpose. Here are the only three I'd actually buy, cheapest to best — and exactly who each one is right for. This is the follow-up a lot of you asked for after my refrigerator video. No sales pitch. No manufacturer talking points. Just straight answers from a repairman who's seen what fails and why — real service data, an independent survey of 15 repair shops, and the machines themselves. 📌 Model Number Note: Bosch model numbers look like a license plate, but the letters just stand for the handle, color, and year. The same machine shows up under a few different numbers. Match the specs to what I give you and you've got the right dishwasher — a bumped letter is usually just a different color or last year's run (often cheaper). In this video: — The two designs inside every dishwasher that decide how it runs: grinder vs. filter — Why I'd take a filter machine over a grinder every time — The Whirlpool WDT750SAKZ — the cheap one that lasts, assembled in Ohio — The Bosch 500 Series SHP65DM5N — the one I'd put in my own kitchen, with AquaStop leak protection — The Bosch 800 Series SHP78CM5N — the best there is, and why you only pay up for the drying — Miele — German-built, but read the service caveat before you buy — Why Samsung isn't on the list — The one thing that'll cost you more than the dishwasher — and it's got nothing to do with which one you buy — My mother, and a thirty-year argument about rinsing ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🛒 SHOP As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
