[Shop-talk] Best dishwasher?

[Bob Spidell]

While on the topic of washers and soap ...

I have a late-model, low-end Maytag that, so far, has performed adequately.  My choice was limited by the small size of 
my kitchen enclosure--it was the only one I could find locally that would fit.

Anyway, for the last year or so--coincident with the detergent reformulation?--I've noticed a problem.  My son drinks a 
LOT of milk, specifically 1% lowfat, and my glasses have acquired a semi-permanent milky residue.  It's almost as if the 
milk is etching the glass.  It can be mostly scrubbed off with a Scotchbrite pad/sponge, but this is a PITA (and try to 
get a 20-year-old semi-man to do this).

Anybody else seeing this phenomenum?
