She called me yesterday afternoon and said it wasn’t draining properly. I told her that I would take a look at it when I got home.

She didn’t listen, watched a video on YouTube about dishwasher maintenance that convinced her she could fix it, and now we’re going to Lowe’s to get a new dishwasher.

What are you baws using these days?

For dishwashers, not for teaching your wives how to listen.

Well until you get the new appliance, I would say “the wife” is the new dishwasher.

You break it, you make up for it.

At least she tried
My wife will see the dishwasher “broken “, I’ll fix it, then she’ll call me “cheap “ for just not buying a new one
Mind you, she has liked our dishwasher for the 11 years we’ve had it

She should have just called Jody. He would have fixed them pipes in a heartbeat.

90% of the time the dishwasher “isn’t draining properly” there is a broken wine glass stuck in the drain

This is such an insufferable and dangerous characteristic in people, especially women. Good luck.

I’m not sure she even got that far. She didn’t say if she ever found the initial problem.

We recently got a new Bosch dishwasher. I love it because it's 1000 times quieter than the one we replaces, but the wife doesn't like it because it doesn't hold as much as the old one.

I don't know the model number. We got it at a local scratch & dent place for about 40% off the retail price.

If my dishwasher breaks I'll just go to the bar to replace her.

How badly could she have screwed it up that you can't repair it?

Ive heard good things about Bosch. She wants KitchenAid. Let’s see what the underpaid and overworked guy at Lowe’s recommends

Curious. How did she manage to ruin your existing dishwasher? They are pretty simple machines...

Mine clogged ours up with sunflower seeds once, it took me two hours to find the issue and then I about blew a gasket.

She was spitting seed shells in a cup then just stuck it in the dishwasher, so it clogged the air vent thing that comes up to the sink.

She ripped the bottom out to get to the drain and filters and in the process broke the mechanism that spins and forced water throughout the unit for cleaning.
