We purchased a Kitchenaid KUDE60FVSS during the recent Sears 40% off sale. However, when it was delivered yesterday with our other purchased appliances, the supports for the 3rd rack were snapped off the inside wall. Incidentally, in total 3 of our 4 delivered appliances were damaged. (Is this normal for Sears?!?!) After two hours on the phone with various customer service departments, we were routed to the Sears exchange center. The person we talked to there confirmed that we couldn't get a replacement for our model until the end of May, which is just too long for us to wait. However, he got approval from the Sears store manager to let us swap our broken dishwasher for any other model Sears carries at the same 40% discount.

So now we're back to square one on figuring out what to buy. We want something in stainless steel with hidden controls that can essentially remove anything off dishes without needing to prerinse. The only brand we didn't like was Bosch due to the small interior and lack of heated drying. And although we liked kitchenaid, all of their dishwashers are out of stock or have long delivery times.

Can anyone offer advice on other models, especially the Kenmore Pro 1317 which is our current front-runner? We were also thinking about the Electrolux EDW7505H because, frankly Electrolux never goes on sale so 40% off would be an incredible deal. Any advice or personal experiences with these or other brands or models would be appreciated.
