Are you sure you're leaving it until the very end of the cycle? I've never had to dry mine with a towel, the dishwasher heat dries it all. The dishes are very warm, some might say hot to the touch when it's finished drying but the inside isn't steamy. The dishwasher is totally off and not making any more noise, the timer is down to zero and nothing else is happening so I assume it’s done. If I run it after dinner and leave it closed until the next morning, every single plastic dish in there will need to be hand dried and ain’t nobody got time for that. At least by opening it up when the thing shuts off, the Corelle type dishes and ceramic mugs will completely air dry by morning and all I’ll have to dry are the wet bottoms of the plastic stuff where the water pools, ugh. Oh that's a pain. It shouldn't be like that though.

Our old dishwasher with the heating element didn't dry much better than our current Bosch. Both suck at drying.

Yep, less than one year old $1200 dishwasher--got to open it right after it finishes (ours chimes 3 times when finished), bang out all the plastic items in the sink and then prop the door open at least 5 to 7 inches for at least 4 to 6 hours for everything to dry (it's the plastic that takes so long and we use a lot of Glad type reusable plastic containers). This is using the dry feature. Isn't that special???

Couple of things: I realized tonight that when I load the dishwasher my hands usually end up sticky/greasy/etc. So I wash them which gets the hot water running.
Also, I raised the amount of rinse aid released in a load and am noticing that the dishes aren't as wet. I had lowered it before because I thought it was making my rinse water cloudy but what I really needed was more, not less.
