This dishwasher doesn't clean well on items loaded on the outer edges (which includes all silverware). Maybe I need to use the pots and pans cycle for dishes. I liked the idea of the heated dry option...too bad it doesn't work well. Even the plates come out moist and I do use jet dry. May be I should have sacrificed some energy stars and used the "Pro Dry" option. Oops...this model doesn't have pro dry. The directions say to run the hot water closest to the sink until its hot before starting. Huh? Maybe that's what I did wrong...so now water usage has doubled...sacrifice some more energy stars. It also says to make sure your water heater is turned up high enough...another energy star down the drain. The stainless outer finish is subject to finger prints.Best Buy sent me an Email asking how I liked the two blu ray movies I bought...huh? They didn't ask how I liked the new dishwasher. Bottom line, a great dishwasher if you wash your dishes by hand first and then towel dry. Energy Star?...Only if you eat off of paper plates....

My new dishwasher came with free installation...how can you go wrong?
The first thing the installer did was pull the cover off the air gap over the sink before even looking underneath. He showed me the air gap and said I had a problem and I needed a new air gap. I told him the only wrong with it was it was dirty. He proceeds to remove the old dishwasher then calls me over to look at the broken corroded hose clamp...he needed to replace the whole thing or any leaks wouldn't be warrantied. The only thing wrong was the 80 cent hose clamp was bad. He sold me a new air gap for 100 dollars...I just wanted it in, so I reluctantly paid him. This , of course, made his job easier and me poorer. A new air gap is 16 bucks at home depot. New dishwashers come with wheels on one end...install it yourself, even if you get "free" installation...you'll be happier.

If you have 2500 extra bucks to spend and want a truly incredible picture, then this TV's for you. I didn't calibrate it and the picture is still awesome out of the box. That being said, 2500 bucks is a lot of dough, so lets get to the cons.... First, this TV is all picture, not much room for sound-you will need a sound bar at least. If you've done your homework, you probably heard that the voice and motion control is more of a gimmick than a replacement for a decent remote. Sound from a movie or my xbox will activate the voice control menu at inopportune times (I just died playing Call of Duty#. Motion Control? You had better be in a well lit room. It comes with two remotes. One is a touch pad like on your lap top...worthless, I don't use it. The other is a standard remote which could have been designed a little better such as more prominent keys for DVR functions. Even with their standard remote you will have difficulty entering a 4 digit channel. Last, but not least, the TV stand is as wide as the TV so you will need an extra long TV stand or wall mounting.
So, my fellow TV shoppers, you have to ask yourself some questions... Do you need 3D...why not...I love it #before you plug in that 3D blue ray DVD, note that 3D blue ray does not work in a standard blue ray player...you need a 3D blue ray player...found out the hard way) Um...how many people do you actually Skype? Can you get by with a less expensive model like the 7100...probably, but you will need to calibrate...girlfriend just got one. I've had this TV for 2 months now....would I buy it again? Yes, cuz I had 2500 bucks to burn. Will this TV last?...I sure hope Samsung makes better TV's than refrigerators. Can you hold out any longer for it to go on sale? Use all your willpower!. If not, you now know what to expect. Its still an awesome picture...
