Well this maytag is pretty quiet, but I am just so annoyed with having

Ditch it like we did and buy a Bosch. You’ll never regret it. It’s so quiet
the cat’s purring downs out the sound it makes. It cleans stuff that we used

You don't need a new one, you need to fix your old one. The things that
spin around and shoot water at the top and bottom need to be cleaned out, or

Grab some tools and start taking it apart. Follow the path of the

The Bosch gets hot from the water, and you leave the door closed for
some length of time and it dries the dishes. i don't think it has a
separate heat blower to dry them. The instructions say to leave it
closed for some length of time.
