Hi all,
I've got a GE POS dishwasher in my house, about 2.5 years old. Since new (previous owners installed it just before we bought house) I've hated it for two reasons. 1) the door/hinges are so flimsy that they will go out of alignment after a while, meaning that the door won't close smoothly as the plastic liner will be rubbing on the tub, so you have to grab ahold of it and twist it back into shape so that it will close smoothly for another couple weeks. Not sure that anything can be done about this save for buying another dishwasher, which I'd like to do someday... 2) the upper rack has a lot of friction in its slides, such that when you're pushing it back in it will suddenly come to a halt about 1/2 way in, causing all your glasses to fall over etc.
What can I use to possibly lubricate these glides so that this won't happen? I thought maybe silicone might not get washed off, but spray silicone really didn't do anything noticeable at all.
Or... should I just buy a new dishwasher? Who makes a GOOD one? One that won't make me cuss at it for being such a flimsy, noisy, obviously cheaply built POS?
thanks
