I chose this because I have a back injury. On bad days I can just use the top draw. And unlike a regular dishwasher I can wash pots and pans etc in the top draw without bending so far and save the bottom draw for lighter things. The only negative was that due to my kitchen design the handles got in the way of my cutlery draws. But the clever installation man resolved that issue for me. I plan to get another dish draw so I can have two side by side when I remodel my kitchen.
