Recommendations for a new dishwasher

[Tyler H]

Our kitchenaid has been nothing but a hassle. Have loved a Bosch in the past. What is the most reliable to buy? I'm not against used. If 5 yr old xxx brand was great but new xxx brand is poor, then I'm happy with an older one.
Would consider shelling out more for a miele... but i seem to see a fair number of those for sale used, due to needing a part replacement.
I feel like a dishwasher needs a garburator and a strong drain pump, and 90 percent of issues could be avoided?
Looking forward to testimonials and recommendations!
I know Jake here has recommended Maytag in the past. May go that route but also looking for other input and to see if anything has changed.

Asko? We have 4 kids and 5th on the way. Need lots of capacity and reliability.

I have no experience with Asko dishwashers or Bosch dishwashers, I've heard Bosch is a good dishwasher along with Maytag.

Let's see what others think too.

What do you know about the strength of drain pumps? Seems to me that is the problem I face most often - dishwasher not draining. Pump giving out, or lines getting clogged. How can I find who has the most powerful or reliable drain pumps?

That's a good question, but I don't know.

Very few issues with either drain pumps.
