Dishwasher Update

A lot has been going on in the dishwasher segment that's worth noting. Consumer Reports has a good writeup which is worth checking out. As I have mentioned before, I am generally a fan./ They do make the point that you don't need a stainless steel tub. While I agree in part - you don't need one - they do aid in drying in two ways:

  1. Stainless tubs retain the heat from a high temperature rinse longer, and,
  2. They capture most of the moisture condensation during drying and allow it to run to the bottom of the unit.
This is a big help with dishwashers that don't use heated drying. Bosch, for example. Heated drying uses lots of electricity and it's worth avoiding if possible. You should always use rinse aid.

Also, our friends at Affresh (of laundry fame) now make a dishwasher cleaner. Early reports are in and indicate that it is superior to the other ones out there. You might want to grab a bag and give it a try.

It's Been a While

A lot has been going on since I last posted. I won't bore you with details, other than the fact that I have had to go back and forth to New York quite a bit since mid July which hasn't left me with a lot of posting time.

Anyway, I'm back.
