My new (couple months old) dishwasher is leaving dishes not cleaned. Glassware seem cloudy. I usually use Jet Dry, and up until now it was OK, but something has happened to cause this. I looked inside and noticed that there was still some water left in the bottom (in the drain mesh). So, I am thinking that maybe water is not draining right. Any suggestions?
Thanks

If the food chopper screen gets really plugged up with stuff then the dishwasher will not clean very good. A plugged up chopper screen will cut down on the water pressure to the spray arms. You will often notice this as the top rack does not clean very good anymore.
