We bought an LG recently, and I hate the mongrel-bastiche thing - the "adjustable plate racks" on the bottom always "adjust" flat whenever you try to put bowls in them, the wine glass bit up the top holds wine glasses, as long as you're willing to give up an extra row where you'd like to put glasses, the wine glass stem holder must be down even when not being used (unlike the "delicate cutlery" rack on the other side) else the dishwasher won't close, which rules out tall glasses along that side, its plate-holder up top is set so that putting large items up there is an exercise in puzzled Rubikscubism, and if you load it up with plates on the bottom, you have to be quick and firm wheeling the bottom rack back in over the "canyon" between the door and the dishwasher proper otherwise the wheels drop into the abyss, it all tilts up, and the bottom rack's pouring its contents into the dishwasher). Other than that though, it works.

Cheers,

We have ASKO washer and dryer and the SUCK. And now my mom is stuck with them, because she had a piece of marble custom fitted on them.

And despite all of your complaints Ricky, I still desperately want a Kitchen Aid Mixer.
