a cheapie dishwasher that was so loud I'd only run it when I left
I'm not sure that's a good idea.
I had a dishwasher that had the failure described in the article linked below. The electronics circuitry (top of door) caught fire. Opening the door didn't stop the smoke, and also caused water to spew uncontrollably into the kitchen.
Fortunately I made a quick dash out to the garage and turned off the breaker so there was no damage to the kitchen.
But if I wasn't home .... what would have happened? If we were all sleeping upstairs while the fire was downstairs .... what would have happened?
