So the "fails to complete a cycle without erroring out" rate finally seems to have reached 100%, on the Samsung dishwasher that came with the house.

What do I need to know when picking a new one, and/or what models do y'all recommend?

I'll take recommendations about how to fix the current one too, I guess, but I already got advice from an appliance repair man, who basically said "it would need a new control board, I.E. ditch it." The error code it's giving is supposedly about insufficient water or water flow, but the water feed is completely fine, as far as I can tell.

Bosch 800 series are great. Had one in our last house. New house, couldn't get another within a year. Went with Beko, somewhere near the top of their line. I would say it competes well with the Bosch. Close enough to call it a draw after one year.

That said, check the drain and supply line on the one you have. If you have too much restriction or if the linea are routed higher rather than lower (requiring more pressure to pump) it might be stopping due to flow rate issues. Could be as simple as a line maybe got kinked.

Seconded on the Bosch 800 series. Have had mine for 4 years now. It does a great job cleaning dishes, much better than the GE it replaced. Mine is run just about once a day and the screen needs to be cleaned every week to two weeks.

It's also very quiet. You can't even tell it's running when in the kitchen.
