Is our dishwasher no good? We have hard H20 and
If you have hard water, glasses can look spotted and cloudy even after cleaning. Sometimes changing the dishwasher detergent can help. The easiest solution to clearing up glasses that start to look cloudy is to add some vinegar to the bottom of the dishwasher before you start a cycle. Simply add 1/4 of white vinegar and it will clear up your glasses very well.
You should see marked improvement after the first time you do this. If they are not crystal clear then simply repeat the process until all of the cloudiness is gone. In fact I recommend to using a little vinegar in each cycle to maintain the clarity of the glass.
Note: you can pre-test this by rubbing some vinegar on an individual glass with a cloth. If you cannot remove the cloudiness by soaking it and rubbing vinegar on it then it is possible that the glass is etched due to harsh or cheap dishwasher detergent and vinegar will not solve the problem.

My dishwasher is leaving sediment on my glasses
Here'sthe best and final trick which I continue to do about every 6 weeks orso: Pour 1-2 cups white vinegar into the dishwasher and run it throughits longest cycle, using the hottest water setting. This will dissolveall the hard water mineral deposits and clean the dishwasher's pipes out reallywell with none of the danger associated with muriatic acid. And it's verycheap. If that doesn't do it tryreplacing the pump.

My dishwasher won't start at all
There could a number of reasons why it won't start but start with the locking mechanism first. Make sure the locking mechanism is in the "Locked" position. It will be the lever at the top of the door. If that isn't the problem try describing everything you have tried and post your question again.
