Well both the Consumer's Report 2008 Buying Guide and Consumer Report March 2008 Magazine say that Kenmore by Sears model #1374(2) is rated #1 and that it's the best buy and it says that it's $650.

The magazine says that for excellent cleaning and quiet operation both of these are CR Best Buys:
1- Kenmore(Sears) 1374(2)-$650
10-Bosch SHE33MO(2)UC- $540
Both are energy-efficient. The Kenmore has targeted spray jets. The Bosch has a stainless-steel tub and a slightly shorter cycle time,115 minutes vs. 125for the Kenmore. You'll occasionally have to clean the Bosch's filter by hand.

If price is more important than quiet:
7-Whirlpool DU1055XTS(0)-$350
12-Kenmore(Sears)1373(2)-$500
21-Whirlpool DU1100XTP(0)-$450
All offer excellent cleaning but the Whirpool (7) is a bit more basic.

Does any one have any of these models? If so how are they? Like I said before I also have to have one that has a water heat setting.
