Dishwasher question

We are buying a new dishwasher and I'm noticing that many of the high end brands do not have a hard food disposer. They have a filter that you have to clean out. This is probably an issue for us because DH does not clean off the dishes first - dumps everything in there.

If anyone has this, is it really a pain to clean? Do you wish you had the disposer instead? If anyone can recommend their dishwasher, that would be great too. Thank you!

Thank you both. I'll have to take another look at the KA.
