Hey guys,

Our dishwasher conked out (pump died, it was about 15 years old). I've already repaired this thing a couple times and it's not worth it now.

Are any reputable brands around anymore? Aren't they all owned by whirlpool?

I'll pay the extra money if it means longevity. Budget probably $1200 or so.

Any recommendations?

If you have a sizable amount of dishes, a dishwashing machine requires far less energy, far less water, produces much more sanitary dishes because it uses water at tempertures that human hands would be harmed by.

This is where we discuss how to repair appliances, large and small. We are not waiting for #right2repair law to be enacted. The civil disobedient practice of repairing instead of wasting and re-buying is welcome here. I will also turn a blind eye toward “piracy” of manufacturer service manuals that are otherwise unavailable to the general public.
