This product thoroghly cleans We upgraded our kitchen appliances November 2012. PROS: The first load came out cleaner than I have ever seen before from a dishwasher machine. The cleaning has been consistantly great. And the stainless steel tub remains just as clean. Cons: I would prefer to have the ability to just to a quick rinse until I am ready to wash a full load. I am concerned about the digital controlls. If anything goes out, that would be expensive to replace. Hoping that it will last me 12 years like my last ones, April 3, 2013
Does a good job of cleaning. Does a good job of cleaning. Hard to load. Wish the silverware tray was in front instead of side. Bowls are hard to load on top shelf. March 1, 2013
THIS PRODUCT HAS GREAT CLEANING ABILITIES I REALLY LOVE MY DISHWASHER. IT CLEANS MY DISHES REAL WELL, SO MANY FEATURES TO CHOOSE FROM, MAKES ME HAPPY February 18, 2013
Quiet, but difficult to load - especially cereal bowls The tines in this dishwasher make loading anything other than plates difficult. Cereal bowls are crowded and some don't fit at all. Although we use sanitize settings and added heat, the interior of the dishwasher is very wet the cycle is much longer than my previous dishwasher, but I never had this problem before. There's also soap inside the dishwasher although we've followed all instructions. The flatware sections could be narrower so the flatware stand up instead of flopping all directions - even sometimes interfering with closing the rack. January 12, 2013
Super Quiet Lots of room on top and for utensils. Still figuring out how to get the most big items on the bottom. It's great to be able to adjust the top rack on one or both sides. Seems to really want the recommended soap, mine leaves residue inside the tub. My husband has had to ask many times if it was running, so quiet. December 5, 2012
Finally a silent dishwasher After reading every review on every site I could find I selected this one and I am so pleased. It cleans perfectly, very Versatel and attractive. Most of all it is so quiet you have to listen for it. I read a review that said he could only hear the water fill and not the normal running and I found that true. My water tested a 2 and this machine adjusts to water hardness. No spots, cleans everything and dries well. September 14, 2012
Mr I HAVE BOUGHT MOSTLY ALL GE PRODUCYS. IT A PRODUCT I LIKE August 27, 2012
A solid washer at a reasonable price I was washing dishes by hand for 6 months before we decided on this solid dishwasher! I love the out of view controls which really helps keeping curious little fingers from false starting a cycle. It cleans very well. Stainless tub was a requirment. Its sleek looks, great performance and quality materials made it clear that this was the washer for our young family! August 24, 2012
