How long is a dishwasher supposed to last nowadays? We’ve been in our house for over four years now and we were the first occupants. After the first year the racks started to rust out. Now, it seems like every time we run the dishwasher, the dishes aren’t clean (and not just from the rust but from food that was rinsed)! This is extremely frustrating as the reason for using the dishwasher in the first place is to eliminate the need to wash the dishes by hand. Now I’m doing both AGAIN! I hate the thought of replacing it already (I never did replace the racks) but I’m tired of the dirty dishes! Besides, I don’t have time to run and empty the dishwasher and then wash them again by hand. What would YOU do?

I’m not sure about your situation, but most contractors use the least expensive appliances when they build homes. I’d probably replace it. You don’t have time for that nonsense.
