Why is our one year old dishwasher not working right? Water spots on everything....
We have a really nice dishwasher (Bosch) and it is only about a year old. It has never been that great, which makes me mad b/c we paid a lot of money for it. Anyway, before I call the manufacturerer I was wondering if anyone has resolved a water spot issue with their dishwasher? We have tried jet dry and opening the door to the dishwasher (which the users manual suggests) to let it air dry a little. Nothing seems to work. Suggestions??

Alicia- do you guys have a water softener? The water in our town is really hard and we got really bad water spots too until we got a softener.

Yes, we got a softener about a year ago too although it isn't working properly and it is getting fixed on Tuesday....maybe that is causing all the problems...

I would have suggested jet dry, but it looks like you already tried that

I'm going to ask the same question that a lot of people have asked already... What kind of detergent are you using?
I was using gels and powders and having a lot of problems with spots. I changed over to the Electrasol tablets with the Power Ball, and since then haven't had any problems... and no further need to use Jet Dry which a tech told me could tend to put spots on your dishes if your washer is a high efficiency machine (which is what ours is)...

I actually switched from a powder that I can't remember the name of (popular brand) to sun light powder (only thing eckerd had)...but I am going to take your advice and get the elctrasol tablets! Thank you...
