You can add your dishwasher to Class 8 if you want.

The $500 minimum is really just for tools. However, many people use the $500 as an unofficial minimum for all class 8 items (and some other classes as well). So if an item costs less than $500, many people will just claim it as an expense in the year they bought it, rather than depreciate the asset slowly through CCA.
