I'm on the hunt for a reliable dishwasher priced between $650 and $850 as we renovate our kitchen. I want one that actually gets the dishes clean without needing pre-washing. I've always liked Bosch but they're usually too pricey for me. I've heard positive things about GE and KitchenAid models too. If you have a specific model you love or any to avoid, please share the details!

If you can swing it, I'd still recommend looking for a Bosch. They’ve got a great reputation for quality, but I understand they can be pricey. If you find a deal, it might be worth it, especially since they often recommend those in Consumer Reports!
I've been really pleased with the Whirlpool Top Control Large Capacity Dishwasher. We got it from Costco for about $580, and it has a 3rd rack and fingerprint-resistant stainless steel, which is a bonus! It has a leak detection system too, making it a solid choice for the price. Definitely check it out!
We bought a Maytag around $650 about 6 or 7 years ago and it’s been a champ! It's super quiet and does a great job cleaning. We liked it so much that we bought another for our new place. It's definitely better than the cheaper GE models we've used before. If you're considering a reliable option, this one's a winner!
What model did you go for? I'm curious if it has the 3rd rack since I really want that feature!

I also found a good deal on a Maytag at Home Depot for around $600, and it’s been working great for us too!
