LG's black stainless dishwasher is a lovable problem child

2015-12-29
many annoyances would you tolerate from an employee if he or she was really good at their job it's a question you actually might want to ask yourself if you're considering buying the $1,200 LG l dt 9 9 6 5 b d lots of little things about this dishwasher bug me but man it's really good at cleaning take a look at the upper rack see the way the bottom raises and lowers here I think it's meant to be helpful somehow I'm just not sure how what ends up doing is making it hard to find any position for glasses and bowls so that they're actually sitting firmly in there and I was following the recommended loading pattern from the instruction manual and still this thing was a pain in the butt everything ends up feeling unstable and knocking into each other and it's hard to fit anything on the side columns with the stem holders down and if you want to use the stem holders you have to put the wine glasses in the second row so they're taking up twice as much space as they normally would it's just not great and despite having a helpful program guide on the inside lip of the dishwasher a lot of what's here is still counterintuitive to use there's a bunch of symbols here near the control panel good luck figuring out what they all mean I to consult the instruction manual and even then I had trouble remembering and these symbols are what tells you what options you have selected it's also not great at drying dishes and that might be a bigger problem for some drying aside it gets just about every big thing right look at this thing beautiful the black stainless exterior resists fingerprints really well it runs at a quiet 42 decibels according to the manufacturer's rating if you don't abuse your dishwasher and you rinse everything before you load it in anyway you can spend less and get more features than this guy but the LG l bt 99 6 v BD is a great cleaner so if you're willing to overlook some annoyances you might actually find it's worth the price you
