[Electronics-Talk] dishwashers

[Chip Orange]

Like you Matthew, I have a Miele, which is also pricey but also has a combination of buttons and a display screen.

If you get some initial sighted help to set the default program for washing to be what you wish, you can then use buttons to start/stop, turn it off/on, etc.

Actually, this is their "top of the line" Miele, and I seem to recall other models which are buttons only without any display screen.

We purchased a Miele because they're rated the quietest of all dish washers, and because they have a third level rack for flatware instead of a basket.

I believe my Mother-in-law just went to a big box store and bought their cheapest model dish washer (no options at all), and she did because it was buttons only, and just a few buttons, so it was very simple for her to operate.  So, I would think a little research at appliance stores or big box stores should turn up button only units if that's all you require.

Hi, Evelyn.  I have a Bosch, but it's a wee bit pricey at about $1,200. 
However, it has buttons, and once you get the hang of which ones to push
and when, it's a no-brainer.I have no problems loading and setting up
the particular type of load i need to use, and so on.  If your finances
permit, take a look at the Bosch line.  That said, however, don't buy
the ones with the plastic tubs; you want the ones lined with stainless
steel; they're of higher quality and last a lot longer.

Hope the above helps.--Matthew Chao

Because it had a row of buttons, I had to do nothing about accessibility-not even labels.  I'd be interested in your eanderiences with recent models concerning accessibility and reliability.  Thanks in advance.
