Well I am unaware of any deaths or injury from dishwashers in the United States, so it seems those regulations are fine.

Hope you don't accidentally fall off a historical ledge that can't get a handrail.

Probably there are plenty of regulations related to safety and suitability regarding electricity, water, washing residue on dishes, etc.

Without being more specific, the only thing I can presume is that you were unwilling to follow regulations here.

I furnished and equipped my home a couple of years ago, and I had plenty of options for dishwashers, from multiple brands. Many different models at varied price points.

This tells me that serious companies have little problems to follow regulations to compete here.

This all really sounds like a "you" problem.

Yep, small biz can't compete with big business.

And to clarify, if there was a single regulatory body, it would be fine. I just didn't want to deal with each country.

Probably a shame since it was totally safe. Too much regulation causes your costs to go up and features to go down.

I don't blame your attitude here. If you can't get something, you want to come up with something that makes you feel better.
