We recently replaces our 8 year old Whirlpool with a new Bosch 300 series model. We absolutely love it. It cleans like you wouldn't believe. You can actually hear some of the dishes moving about in their tines because of the high water pressure. Some of the new Whirlpool machines are compared to "peeing" on the dishes because of their anemic pressure. This machine cleans everything we throw at it. You can get the cheaper Ascenta model and it should suit you well. Our new machine uses less water and energy, is far quieter, and has incredible cleaning performance. One note though, be sure to use rinse aid. It certainly helps with drying. The racks take some time to get used to, but I find that I can fit more in this machine than the one that it replaced. Bosch machines also have a water leak feature that prevents flooring damage. Look for one on sale to sweeten the deal. Let me know if you have any questions.
