As part of our kitchen floor tiling team, I couldn't see why it was necessary to pull out the dishwasher and tile that area of the kitchen. It's never seen and I just assumed when we replaced the washer in the future, we'd just slide a new one in the same place so it would cover up whatever flooring we had there. But I was overridden by the collective experience and opinion of all the people actually doing the work so I gave up easily. Once we got the old dishwasher out, Carolyn decided that she really didn't want to put it back. While Richard and Natalie were cleaning up, Carolyn went dishwasher hunting. She brought back one that has all sorts of special features. It has water temperature and clarity sensors so it can tell how dirty the dishload is as well as how hot it needs to heat the water to optimally clean. The onboard computer will also lengthen or shorten the wash and rinse cycles as necessary. Pretty slick. I'm surprised it doesn't have Internet access.
Richard connected the plumbing and electrical and made sure the washer fit into the slot left by the old one. He and Carolyn wrapped & taped the sound insulation then pushed the machine into the empty space. They did leave to me the job of screwing in the two little screws that prevent the washer from tipping over when you pull out the drawers. So there it is - a new appliance I didn't even know we needed!
