This is the dishwasher in my apartment. It was brand new, installed just before I moved in.
I am OCD about stuff like this, that is terribly out of level to my eye.
Out of level according to the bubble level as well.
It has from the start leaked water, which I think is condensation, because it doesn't begin to come out until after the wash cycle and the drying cycle begins.
It's hard to make out, but that is water.
I have run my hand down the left/sink side of the device and found that the water is coming out about 8 inches up from the bottom of the left side.
Sometimes it is worse than this, sometimes I don't notice it at all.
Last night I looked before going to bed, I didn't look THAT closely, but I did look and I didn't see anything.
backtrack a moment
about a month ago I bought was was sold as an 'exercise mat' ¾ inch thick, spongy rubber like stuff. I put it in the kitchen to help save my feet while I'm in there working, SO
It would normally extend from the doorway to the refrigerator.
Last night, I got up late and went to get something to drink. I put my foot on the end of the mat.
The water had WICKED up under it, all the way to the kitchen/dining room door. As soon as I put my foot down on it, it hydroplaned and if I hadn't caught myself on the edge of the sink, I'd have gone down HARD flat of my back.
For someone that is:
- my age
- my physical condition, and
- living alone,
this could have had a very different and VERY tragic outcome
