This dishwasher is busted

I'm so annoyed. Granted I run at least 1 load of dishes per day (and sometimes 2 which is impressive for someone who lives alone) but it was replaced just 2 or 3 years ago. Last week I ran a full load and when it was finished yes things were wet but they looked exactly the same as when I put them in. Fine so I ran it again. Same results. Fast forward to a total of 6 loads and there still is like no improvement. So what am I doing now? Running it again. I'm about out of dish tabs! I've also cleaned out the filter and run a dishwasher cleaning tab. Nothing. I have to see how things go today. If I don't get the call I am expecting by a reasonable time then I will call the management office to get maintenance here. There are people in this complex who have been living with broken microwaves and dryers for years but I am not willing to deal with that. I pay enough in rent to have functioning appliances.

Hope they don't ignore your calls for repair. Being without a dishwasher would be hard for me.

Good luck! I have a dishwasher that I haven't used in probably 20 years. I liked it but it took forever for Pretty and I to dirty enough dishes to make a full load. It's just easier to wash everything once a day by hand than to have dirty dishes sitting in the dishwasher waiting to be run.

Hopefully, it won’t take forever to get it fixed, or probably to get another one.

You should have it repaired. It happened to mine, so we called the expert to do it.

I hope it can be fixed. The dish washer is the appliance hat lasts less years. I have never been lucky with it.
