I know everyone here seems to love Bosch, but I'm very happy with my KitchenAid. Part of it is how you load things in the KitchenAid, part of it is that the parts are shared between Whirlpool and KitchenAid, such that finding replacement parts wouldn't be a problem (and I can use all the old accessories I had from my Whirlpool in the KitchenAid). Also, I know Bosch has gotten better on this point, but I really wanted something that had a heating element at the bottom for drying.
If anyone's curious, the KitchenAid I ended up with is this one, very highly rated:

Edit: in re-reading my post, I forgot to mention one VERY important deciding factor for me personally. I needed something that would definitely have completely removable racks, so that I could use the dishwasher to fit extremely large items. Really easy to remove the racks in the KitchenAid.
Ouch. Hopefully the strings represent the Kitchenaid and the trumpets and trombones represent the Bosch.
