Q: Does this dishwasher have a hard food disposal?

A: I believe it has a grinder not a disposal. Do not think you can get a disposal in any dishwasher anymore. Both come with a filter that needs to be cleaned on a regular basis.

Q: What if height not fit in under my counter top?

A: This dishwasher can be installed in a cutout of 34''-34.5''.

Q: How long does the dishwasher last before it breaks down ?

A: My unit broke within the first year and it took several repair attempts for it to work but now just months later the problem is back and will have to start the repair cycle again. Problem is error code i20 and the unit just quits washing leaving dishes soapy and wet.

Q: When using the dishwasher only 2x a week, does it have a smell?

A: YES, it's because it's a non-vented washer. Many are these days apparently. And using it every day helps "clean it out " from what i see and have heard. Ours smells after a day off. IF you're stuck with it, try putting a small glass of vinegar in the tray Upright so the vinegar gets splashed out slowly and helps sanitize it. I tried that and it seems to help a bit, and white vinegar is cheap at least. The filter smells even with a tiny bit of stuff in it too I think.

Q: Made in America?

A: The dishwasher is made in USA.
