Holy crap, have I had a crazy week! My dishwasher heating coil burned through the bottom of the dishwasher and flooded the kitchen, UNDER the flooring. When you walked on it, it went, squish, squish, and was like walking on a waterbed. It was both freaky and cool and an OMG moment all the same time. Bad news is, this means slows down a lot while I deal with this, but hey, good news is I get a new floor/dishwasher.

@KARiley40 that's a bummer! I didn't know that could happen with a dishwasher. Quite a dramatic malfunction!

@codechemist According to the repair guy, it's not uncommon, especially with older models (though, this one was only 3 years old and a good brand not at all known to do this). I guess, this is a PSA in a way too. This could have started a house fire. Don't run your dishwasher at night or when you're not home,.

@KARiley40 yikes! *looks sideways at dishwasher that we got in 2014* 😬 Anyway, good to know!

Ahhhhh that sounds scary! Good luck!!
