Im very happy with this purchase, it does exactly what I bought it for and cleans everything beautifully on the light wash cycle. I chose this one because it has a good water rating (4.5 star) compared to others in the same price range. The energy rating (3.5 star) is the same as other brands. I also chose the Haier because I have a Haier front load washer which is awesome! I find the knife rack on the top basket useless but it lifts out easily and I store it under the sink. It may come in handy at a later date. One thing that surprised me is how light the dishwasher unit is, compared to my last dishwasher. Not a criticism, just an observation.
