(More customer
reviews)I installed the unit in the crawl-space above a
new washer/dryer hook-up.
Reason:
The distance of the vent hose was about 20 feet. I was using a "Y"
4" PVC pipe fitting to tie in with an existing 4 inch bathroom vent
hose.
Pros:
- Wiring a regular on and off switch was easy.
- The unit has excellent draw, zero moist air backs-ups into the
room.
- The mounting brackets were very handy to secure to the studs.
- It's very quiet, this was a concern as it is a rental unit and
there is a shared wall 12 inches from the unit.
- The unit has no noticable vibration, very important when
installing in a ceiling.
Cons:
- I wish the unit had an auto-sensor to turn-on once air pressure
from the dryer hit it; for the price, I think this would not be too
much to ask.
Concerns:
- I hope it lasts a long time as getting into the crawl-space to
replace or repair the unit would be a nightmare now that my
teneants have moved in.
I didn't buy the unit because it was the cheapest, I bought this
model because it looked well designed.

DO line up. as you build the walls just start but don't tighten any
of the screws. when all walls are installed go around and tighten
all screws. when building the roof start but don't tighten the
screws until all screws are in one panel, then tighten all in that
panel. go to next panel and repeat previous step. the instructions
were clear enough. yes it is a long job and physicaly tiring,
taking 2 whole days (10am to 5pm) with my 13 year old son, 14 year
old daughter and myself. but i didn't see anything about it to
merit the bad reviews i read. one complaint, not enough white
plastic washers, but my kids were in charge of handing me screws
with washers and might have lost one sheet. had some left over from
previous shed i built 20 years ago so no problem. only change to
instructions, i loosely assembled gables and roof beams on the
ground and lifted assembly to top off walls instead of piece
working it. this shed is replacing my smaller 20 year old arrow
shed which was still good but rusted ugly and too small for all the
20 years accumulated stuff. 20 years and still usable, from a
$400+/- shed was a fair deal, thats why i got another one. and no i
don't work for arrow or lowes and have no interest except the bad
reviews seem unjustified to me.

which it didn't for long. It looks good tho. I made the assumption
that I was buying high end based off the brand and price but was I
ever wrong. I sure wish that I had read all the negative reviews
online about all of the kitchenaid drawer dishwashers. Also, the

KitchenAid has spent decades creating innovative products for the

Double drawer dishwashers offer the best of both worlds. They fit
in the same space as a regular full-size dishwasher, but each
drawer operates independently. You can wash heavily soiled pots and
pans using once cycle, and a separate load - using a different
cycle - in the other drawer.

washer. It is because there is usually a load of washing in the
washer waiting for the dryer to be emptied which inspires mold,
which causes oily stains. NOTHING I tried before Spray N Wash Max
would get them out and I tried EVERYTHING. My mother viewed washing
as an art form so my ammunition is extensive. This stuff takes out
other stains too, but the reason I'm in love is because it takes
out the spots. I have ruined many a favorite top because of them
and now I have a new weapon! By the way, if you are getting oily
spots from your washer, put 1/3 or so cup of dishwasher soap in
washer drum (where the clothes go) and run the washer on hot. Then
do a load of whites with bleach. Then something light (like
towels). Do once a week or so.

operation. The built-in water softener really works with our hard
well water. The fingerprint resistant stainless steel front is
great. The display is excellent and informative. The various cycle
selections are versatile. The auto-sense wash adjustment time works
fine. The half-load works even in the pot scrub mode. The water and
energy usage is the lowest on the market. And the 24/7 water
protection with automatic shut-off at the water source can prevent
a flood even when you're away.
Oh yeah...Our dishes and glassware have never been as sparkling
clean as they come out of this dishwasher. The in-line water heater
regulates the water temperature as needed for the cycle in use. The
dishes are dry after the cycle is complete and we keep the door
closed for an hour or so.
The dishware tines in the lower rack might be a little close
together for some shaped plates, but not for the old and new style
of dinnerware we own. Tall wine glasses fit fine in the height
adjustable middle rack. The upper cutlery tray safely holds a full
dinner party of silverware and keeps everything separate and easy
to unload.
Get it? We love this dishwasher! Really, this is a wonderful
dishwasher...the best dishwasher we have ever had.
Update on 1/1/2010: I just re-read my review and came to the
conclusion that my enthusiasm for this dishwasher might imply that
I work for Bosch. That is not the case. I am in no way connected to
the appliance industry. I'm just a happy Bosch SHE68E15UC
owner.
Update on 1/14/2010: We originally used Somat (Miele) brand
"Dishwasher Salt" for the built-in water softener in our Bosch
SHE68E15UC. An entire 2.66 lb. (1.2 Kg) box of Somat salt lasted
for about one month. I have the Bosch set for the highest water
softening level because our well water has 35 grains of hardness
(600 milligrams/gallon). Using a $9 box of Somat salt per month
would be too costly, so I decided to switch to the considerably
lower cost Morton System Saver II salt sold in a 40 lb bag for only
$6. The System Saver II salt is processed 100% pure salt and is
supplied in a pellet size that easily flows through the filling
funnel provided with the Bosch dishwasher.
Cargill's "Diamond Crystal® Pellets with Softener Care(tm) Formula"
will work just as well as the Morton System Saver II Salt
Pellets.

Evolution 800 Plus Series Semi-Integrated Dishwasher - Stainless
Steel
History of Bosch 1886 - A modern industrial giant began humbly
enough when German engineer, Robert Bosch, opened his Workshop for
Precision Mechanics and Engineering. 1906 - Bosch had established
its first U.S. subsidiary. That was followed by 60 years of growth
into what became the Robert Bosch LLC. 1990 - Through acquisitions
and innovation engineering, Bosch Appliances had grown to 41
subsidiaries worldwide. 1997 - Bosch made a bold commitment to the
U.S. market with the construction of the New Bern, North Carolina
Dishwasher plant. 2001 - Bosch Appliances are now available in 100
countries across the globe. The brand is proud to be ranked as the
#1 and #2 dishwashers in a leading consumer magazine. 2002 - The
on-going quality dedication and quest for innovation continue to
make Bosch the leader in upscale appliances. Unmatched silence.
Unrivalled energy and water efficiency. That's the story behind
every Bosch dishwasher. Their dishwashers are manufactured to the
strictest specifications using the highest quality materials.
What's more, they are intelligently designed with a host of
conveniences to make everyday use a pleasure, and engineered to
deliver sparkling clean dishes wash after wash. Available at AJ
Madison. Bosch Outperforms Miele By Out-Engineering Them. For the
800 Plus, quieter and more efficient translates into operating as
quietly as 40 dBA and using 156% less water than the average
dishwasher - numbers that Miele just can't match. And with the
unique AquaStop Plus safety feature and a third-rack design that
fits small cutlery as well as larger, oddly shapped items, you'll
see for yourself how the 800 Plus stacks up to the Miele line.

to [...] to find one, however, partselect would charge shipping and
ship slowly. The product is the exact one #PS1943998 on partselect,
so it may fit a lot of washers and electric dryer. Although its
instructions say for MAH6700 washer & MDE6700 dryer only, but
it fits my Amana NFW7200TW washer and Amana NED7200TW electric
dryer very well (you may need remove two screws on the washer
before assembling the two Rear Brackets). I think it also fits
Maytag NFW7200TW and Maytag NED7200TW. As mentioned at the

reviews)I have a newer GE profile top load washer and
with a standard standpipe and I could not use this device. My stand
pipe is only about 6 inches below the top of the washer so I had to
mount the Filtrol 160 so the top of the unit was about 60" high to
put the bottom discharge hose of the Filtrol slightly above the
stand pipe.
After I installed the unit I found that the water would come
flooding back into the wash tub after the final spin cycle
completed. Which of course soaked the clothes. I guess the pump
can't handle the height of the Filtrol 160.
I think if you have a lower stand pipe or use a sink to drain your
washer it would work. I would steer clear if you have a standard
height drain pipe. My washer and dryer fit snugly in a small
laundry closet so I don't have room to bust out the wall and lower
the standpipe, there would be no room to mount the Filtrol unit
lower anyway.
After I unhooked the unit my washer is back to working like
new.

Septic Protector Filtrol
160TM
Washing machines are a leading cause of septic system failures. A
typical family washing machine produces enough lint every year to
carpet a living room floor! Lint screens and nylon socks trap less
than 5% of these particles. These small, light particles don't
settle in the septic tank. Instead, they in suspension and are
flushed out to the drain field, where they plug up the pores of the
soil bed. To compound the problem, much of our clothing is now made
of non-biodegradable, synthetic materials such as polyester and
nylon. Once these synthetic materials enter the drain field, there
is no way to remove them. The Septic Protector is the only product
which can eliminate this problem and has been featured on CNN, ABC,
CBS, NBC, PBS, FOX and in Mother Earth News, Family Handyman and
numerous other publications. The Filtrol 160TM washing machine lint
trap is the only filter designed to remove these damaging particles
before they go down the drain and damage your system. The Filtrol
160TM is a patented, re-useable, in line filter that you attach to
your washing machine discharge hose that protects your septic
system.The Filtrol 160TM comes with extra hose, clamps, fittings,
and a mounting bracket for easy installation (you supply the 2
screws that hold the bracket on the wall). Most homeowners can
install the unit in 10-15 minutes. It comes with a bracket for
mounting on the wall near the washing machine. These are examples
of typical installations, however, because not all laundry rooms
are the same you may have to modify your set-up.

Bed speads are no trouble. There are different cycle options. I

optimum performance, make sure to install the dryer correctly. We
used 4" metal duct pipe/elbows fastened with clamps as the

they pose a fire hazard and increase drying time significantly.

(More customer
reviews)This is a well-made product, with solid brass
fittings and ball valves (it is heavy!) Theoretically, it is easy
to hook up. You unhook your washing machine hoses, connect the
Tropic Shower, and hook your washing machine hoses onto the Tropic
Shower. You then control whether you want water to go to your
washer or out to a hose (which connects to the Tropic Shower) using
a ball valve. You also control the amount of hot water coming from
the hot water tap using another ball valve. The challenge (if you
have an older home) is getting those darned washing machine hoses
off of your faucets to begin with, and making sure everything is
hooked up with no leakage (make sure you turn off water to the
house and water to the hot water heater before you start!) Teflon
tape may be your best friend. We highly recommend you use teflon
tape even if you have a newer home where the threads on your
faucets are in better shape. Also, make sure that the valve is
turned to the "off" position (water to the washer only) before you
turn the water back on! This is serious high-pressure water. I
wouldn't want you to ruin your nice wood floors with a flood. Once
hooked up to the washer/dryer faucets, then all you do is hook up a
hose, and you're ready to go. Another piece of advice - get a
high-quality hose that won't kink, and use teflon tape! We got a
cheapo hose and it never stopped leaking where it connects to the
Tropic Shower (it was the hose's fault, not Tropic Shower's), even
with gobs of Teflon tape. Plus, it kept kinking, building up water
pressure behind the kink, and contributing to the leaking. Also
make sure that when the plastic shower head is turned off (a big
water saver when bathing a dog!), that there are no leaks at the
point where the hose connects to Tropic Shower. I wouldn't want you
out there for an hour bathing dogs, only to come back to puddles of
water. My only piece of advice to Tropic Shower is that they
somehow make a "lock" that will hold that ball valve in the "water
to the washer only" position when you're not bathing dogs, so that
if you accidentally bump that valve in any way, you don't get a
face-full of high-pressure water.
OK, if you have managed to successfully hook up the Tropic Shower,
it is time to give your dog a bath. The nice thing is that you can
control the water pressure to the hose by simply turning the valve
as far as you want. Let me warn you now - if you have water-shy
dogs, turning the valve ALL the way on will result in water
pressure similar to the one produced by the Shower Head for
Elephants that Kramer bought off the black market in Seinfeld.
Enough to blast your dog right out of his Booster Bath (which, by
the way, is another great product). So, we like to turn it on only
half-way or a-third-of-the-way, especially for our very water-shy
dog. Test the pressure and temperature of the water before shocking
your poor dog. If it is chilly outside, remember that when you turn
the shower head off, the water in the hose is going to get cold, so
when you turn it back on, let it run till the water warms up. A
warm bath is priceless - it helps the dogs relax (well, as relaxed
as dogs who hate baths can be) and it is also nicer for the humans
to get pelted with warm water rather than cold when the dog shakes.
Our dogs cried when we gave them baths using just cold water from a
hose, even when it was warm outside. Talk about guilting us into
buying a Tropic Shower! But seriously, cold water (and remember,
even on a warm day, if the ground is still cold, that water is
COLD) could be considered some form of animal cruelty. We really
feel a lot more humane using nice warm water. Plus, that means you
can give your dog a bath on a nice sunny day, even if it's chilly
outside. A tip for those of you who struggle with dog shampoo - we
use a great all-natural dog shampoo (not sure if we can advertise
it here) and the best way to not waste it is to fill up a gallon
jug with warm water, add plenty of shampoo, and shake to mix. When
starting your dog's bath, simply use the gallon jug of very soapy
warm water to suds up. It saves water, saves on shampoo, and makes
it much easier to work the suds into the coat. Then when done,
simply turn on your Tropic Shower and rinse. OK, OK, we use
conditioner too. And then we rinse again. Spoiled rotten dogs. My
only other suggestion to Paws Tropic is to make a pole with a
moveable arm which attaches to the booster bath to hold the hose.
Your arm gets mighty tired holding up the hose with one hand while
desperately trying to rinse thoroughly with the other.
Overall, a great product. I do think that the instructions that
come with the Tropic Shower could be a little more detailed (using
Teflon tape, checking for leaks, etc.) to prevent runs to Home
Depot during installation, and I also think that the labeling on
the Tropic Shower itself could be better. I had to tape a piece of
paper onto the Tropic Shower to remind me of which valve position
means what. I also think that since this attaches permanently, some
mechanism to lock the valve in the "water to washer only" position
would be a very nice feature, if only for peace of mind.

(More customer

washing dishes. It is pleasantly quiet and has features that are
useful, and then some.
It is a good value for money as a mid level appliance, which if you
are careful, you can currently get in the $450-$500 price range
(out-the-door price, but not including installation).
A few features that are very useful:
The Powerscour option, allows one to fold down one row of rack
tines and conveniently face casserole dishes and baking pans
directly into the flow of several water jets. It may not clean 100%
of a heavily enameled food on a baking dish but it will soften even
the toughest job to an easy wipe off removal. This is very
convenient.
While I've not thought about noise from a dishwasher as a feature
before, this machine has a soft kind of processing noise that is
more reassuring than distracting.
The utensil rack fits neatly in the door. It is also flexibly
designed so it can be moved to the bottom rack. This is an
efficiency gain on other models because it leaves more space to do
other dishes on the bottom rack.
The rinse aid is used very efficiently. It seems that 1/4 cup of
rinse aid will last for about 4 dishwasher loads, and you do not
need to refill in between.
A few improvements would move this from "very good" to
"excellent":
The tine rows on the bottom rack are either not spaced wide enough
or not constructed in such a way as to properly secure plates. They
will roll and even crash into other dishes with even slight
movement of the bottom rack. Anytime one pulls out the rack or tips
it with the door, the plates will shift and often roll and clang
into other dishes.
The silverware slots in the door utensil holder are too small and
spaced too tightly. One can get scratched too easily trying to
maneuver too many utensils into the too tightly spaced slots.
Rather than cramming 11 utensils into one tiny compartment, maybe 9
with slightly larger slots. With two open compartments, there would
still be enough room to accommodate 14 place settings total (42+
utensils).
Even with a rinse aid, the dishwasher does not quite get the dishes
dry, even if they sit another hour after the heated dry cycle has
completed. This is not a big deal to me, having small residues of
water remaining, but would move this from very good to
excellent.
A few minor improvements also,
Simplicity makes things better. There are a bit too many buttons on
the console, crammed together. Eliminating say a button for one
cycle and one option and one delay start option would help a lot.
(My suggestions would be combine "china" and "express wash",
combine "high temperature wash" and "sani-rinse" option, and
eliminate the 4 hour delay start (leaving 2 and 6 hours).
The adaptive wash cycle could be made much more flexible to
accommodate the size of a load and its dirtiness, it doesn't seems
to vary much in time of wash cycle but could be very useful if it
greatly customized the wash cycle to the particular load.
In the end, the quality of workmanship will prove itself out. My
expectation is 10 years with no repairs, we'll see. I will be
delighted to get 14 years plus.
Overall, this is a good value and does its main purpose of washing
well, drying not so well.
