Sooo...need a new dishwasher. Should I stick with the Lowe's/Home Depot delivery and installation option or am I burning money?

Get the Bosch, the quiet one with the light that shines on the floor so you know it's on. Best dishwasher I've ever had, by far.

I think the Dishwasher is the most overrated appliance in the home. Runs up the water and electric bill. Does a piss poor job of cleaning unless you pre-rinse and clean any sticky dried-up gunk because you let them set in the sink. Even if you do get a full load every evening if you don't rinse them you usually don't get clean dishes. Then there is the little problem that they don't last long and tend to clog your plumbing because the disposers in the dishwasher suck. All that grease and muck goes straight into your plumbing because it bypasses the sink disposal to chop up good.
But yeah if everything is plug-and-play and up to code Lowes or HD is fine. If they have to do extra it can be a problem. |

One of the best and most versatile power tools I own is the multi-tool (or oscillating tool). So many uses and its unique ability to do plunge cuts is epic.

Ours is about 5 years old and absolutely love it. We scrape off any chunks on the plates and never have a problem. It's just the wife and me now so we only run it once a week and everything is perfect. So quiet you can't hardly hear it when it's running.

My dumbass neighbor is finally finishing his deck. It has taken six years.
The smartest thing he is doing is putting up a wall so we can not see them when they are on the deck. It will not help him much with the southern sun but will help block his outdoor light that he leaves on all the time. it will block it from our deck when we are sitting there. |
