Hey guys, we bought a Whirlpool dishwasher (DU1145XTPBA) from Lowes and had it installed a few days before Thanksgiving, but we haven't used it yet because we  believe it was not installed properly.  Does a dishwasher have to be plumb? I put a 24in. level against the door and I have to pull the level 1/4" away from the bottom half of  the door to get a plumb reading on the level. Will I damage the washer if I use it like this? Will it effect the cleaning ability? I called Whirlpool, but they were not much help...the first rep asked me "what do you mean plumb?":shock: and the second rep told me "it's okay...it's just cosmetics...line it up with your cabinet", but she didn't sound very convincing or confident. Is their anything else I should check for before we run the machine? We would really appreciate your help. Thanks.:)
