I say basically new because we’ve had them for maybe a month. Had to run the dishwasher again to get it unstuck. It’s a crappy apartment provided dishwasher that doesn’t do its job well (notice the food stains that won’t come off). There’s still melted plastic on the heating element and the plastic fumes are strong.

Edit: I was never taught that you’re not supposed to put knives in the dishwasher. Going forward I will wash them by hand. Thank you all for letting me know.

    if there are food stains in the dishwasher after a full cleaning cycle, then you shouldn’t be using the dishwasher for anything. the landlord might replace it, but it’ll just be another discount bin bullshit washer.

      Food staibs is probably because the jets on the whirly spinny water fan are pluged. Remove and place under sink tap and see if all the ports are flowing. I had issues like that. Now I don’t even prewash my dishes just get the large shit off with a fork.
