Aloha All, I recently bought a Whirlpool dishwasher and tried to get a braille overlay. I was told that they are not making the overlays anymore.
I also learned that once the dishwasher is set, for example normal and for no heat, you can just push the start button and the machine remembers your settings. The buttons on the machine are raised soft buttons, but you can feel them easily and they are different sizes. I just made a list of the buttons in case I ever need to know which is which.
