"The worst part is that when my husband explained his anger and frustration was due to the fact that we have a potentially volatile dishwasher sitting in our kitchen, that our 19 MONTH OLD SON, was sitting next to when this happened" But you ALSO say.."I ran into the kitchen to thick smoke," which leads me to think you were in a different room than the child, so your going to blame his safety on a dishwasher?? That is your problem. There is ALWAYS a risk of something going wrong with electronics and appliances.
