the NEW dishwasher...

Our old dishwasher was pathetic and we weren't using it as it left white film on everything and that's useless.. so after a month or more of washing all the dishes for the most part.. or rewashing glasses after a cycle had run. The new dishwasher was picked out on Friday afternoon and delivered and installed Saturday late afternoon.

Since 11 years ago in 2011 when we designed our kitchen we chose a "bisque" colored sink, and appliances.. which seemed like a great color with our oak cabinets. But now as we have the first appliance go bad, we have found that "bisque" isn't a color that is being made (or displayed) in appliances stores at Pacific Sales where we originally bought it. But if they do alot of work they can find that KitchenAid still makes this color and have it delivered pretty fast.  You get one option of dishwasher in this color ~ and that is the way it rolls, so we paid, scheduled the installer,that doesn't take very long.  We maybe discussed the option of starting in the stainless steel model for a minute and headed home in the matter of 15 minutes start to finish. My kind of shopping, but since it was a no choice decision for less steel models, but decided we'd cross that bridge if or when we were still living in the house, for now just match them up.

This is the old KitchenAid dishwasher which is a mere 11 years old but that is like 25 years in appliance years as they don't build them to last more than 3 years anymore... isn't that sad!

having the old dishwasher out of the hole was about how useful the dishwasher was while it was in the hole... not so much...

the NEW dishwasher.. a KitchenAid
 
Now for that first load of dishes to have come out of it, ready to be put into the cabinet and not rinsed film off of and dried..  These luxuries don't come cheap, but in resale of a home, you can't have one that doesn't work..
