Super disappointing experience with our dishwasher...

Super disappointing experience with our dishwasher. After our 12 year old and originally less expensive dishwasher needed replacing, we decided to spring for a kitchenaid 3 years ago. We were very optimistic that the additional investment would be worth it. Today, we received a quote for $650 to replace the wash motor and the control panel! 3 year old machine and repairs costing just under what the machine originally cost. That's just NOT OK. To top it all off, due to covid, it appears we will be washing dishes by hand or eating off of paper plates for 6-8 weeks as there are no dishwashers to be found anywhere in local stores. I will not be buying a kitchenaid again and will certainly NOT be recommending any brands in the whirlpool family to my friends. Such a huge bummer!
