We have had one of these for at least 4 years. It has worked great for us. And the price was reasonable.

In the past, we had a magnetic one. After moving to a different house, we discovered that the magnetic one would not work on the dishwasher in this house, because the door and the rest of the dishwasher front has very little steel or other metal, to which a magnet could cling. Some kind of plastic laminate I guess. Our old magnetic sign-flag-indicator thing-ee just fell on the floor.

So we bought this one, because it does not depend on a magnet. I was leery at first, worrying that the suction cup would fail quickly. The suction cup on this product has clung to the dishwasher door for 4 years. The door is opened and closed daily, yet it has never fallen off.

However, this may not be a good choice for some dishwashers:

(1) if the dishwasher door does not have a smooth surface -some type of textured or bumpy surface -the suction cup may not cling properly.

(2) if the dishwasher door is BLACK, this item will be very hard to see. The colors of this item are NOT the black and white, which you might guess from the photo. There is no white area on this; the actual colors are black and CLEAR plastic. The word "DIRTY" is in clear plastic surrounded by black; and the word "CLEAN" is black surrounded by clear plastic. When placed against a BLACK dishwasher door, the clear plastic areas will just look black, such that the entire thing will look like a round black button.

For our dishwasher, it has been fine. The wheel does not seem to spin around when the door is opened or closed on ours, but if it did it would be no problem to reset it.

I've had one now for 2 years.

Still sticking on the door.

Never had to restick.

I'm buying some more as gifts for friends!

Okay, I know you should read the product specs closely, but I put in "Magnet" for the search and naturally assumed that that's what I was getting.... It's not a magnet AND more importantly, the parts that appear to be white in the photo are actually CLEAR. So, if you happen to have a black dishwasher like I do, or even a stainless one, you can barely see the indicator, let alone read it. Just some thoughts to keep in mind.

With 5 people in the house we really need something to cling to our dishwasher and let everyone know whether the dishes inside are 'dirty' or 'clean'. Our dishwasher has a stainless steel finish, so a magnet will not work. I thought this suction-cup thingie would work perfectly! Afterall, the surface of the washer is as smooth as humanly possible and perfectly clean. Wrong. The suction cup would never stay on for more than 30 minutes before falling away. After it fell for the second time, from a height of approximately 2 feet off a linoleum surface, the plastic disk (that has the words 'clean' and 'dirty' and that you rotate on the spindle) broke completely in two. I glued it back together, but of course now it looks awful and in any event it still won't stick to anything without falling off within a few minutes. Yeah, it's only $6 after shipping, but spare yourself that wasted $6 and buy something else.

Opening and closing the door causes it to spin to where you can't trust it.
