Problem
30 year old Kitchen Aid (Whirlpool) is still working. But counter mounting brackets break every few years.

Repair & Advice
I gladly trade the longevity of this appliance for the inconvenience of replacing the mounting brackets every few years. I'm just very glad the bracket are still made. Advice - remove the old bracket screw from the counter prior to pulling out the dishwasher. You can't remove the counter screw with the appliance out. Also use a small screw driver to line up the under counter screw hole with the bracket hole. It's very hard to see behind the new bracket when it is positioned on the dishwasher frame.
