It is a good start, but get rid of the dept. of education, EPA, and ALL the endowments, etc-especially anything to do with climate change and fed regulation thereof.
I’ve got the same problem-the dishwasher in the home we sold 7 years ago ran quietly and always left the dishes clean and dry in 30-45 minutes. We built a new house then, with those new, energy star appliances-the dishwasher is a deafening piece of crap that stays on for 90 minutes and leaves the dishes wet, and you have to practically run around under the new low flow shower heads to get wet and clean, flush the low flow toilets 6 times, etc. I still have my old washer and dryer, and do not intend to part with them-I do not want to try to get clothes clean in something that uses so little water that I see products advertised especially for it because it makes everything stink-that is NOT clean.
We bought a W/D from Sears about four years ago. Front loader Washer and Energy efficient dryer. Love them both. The dryer gave me fits electrically but that's okay I have spent my whole life fixing things like it.
The washer is awesome. It washes everything well and uses less than half the water of a top loader. I can't say enough good things about it.
