Works great!!

Got this a few weeks ago as a replacement for one we bought with our new house 5 years ago. It is so quiet and cleans the dishes 100% cleaner than our other one. We got it in the matte cast iron black color and it goes goes nicely with the "slate color" of the other appliances. Hopefully it will last longer that the previous one did!!!!
