Great cleaning
This dishwasher never fails to clean my dishes as well as if I did them myself. It’s wonderful
by
    Hopefully one time is all
    I am a new construction and I moved in on a Saturday, washed my dishes the next morning that were packed in boxes before putting them in my cupboard and the top right corner of the machine pulled away and broke. My dealer told me this has been an issue and ordered a new top piece! I hope this is not a chronic issue and will keep happening. Also, it’s not cleaning my coffee cups. This week I will be seeing if the bottle jets will get them clean!

        Worst dishwasher ever
        This dishwasher runs for hours and does not clean as intended. If you don't clean out the filter in the bottom almost daily you get black mildew residue all over your dishes and the I side of the dishwasher. It is disgusting!

        Hi, We're sorry to hear this dishwasher isn't performing as expected. Seeing that your dishes are still dirty after a cycle can be disappointing, and we'd like to help with this. Please make sure large dishware does not block the detergent dispenser or wash arms, as this will keep dishes from being cleaned properly. You can find tips on loading your dishwasher on page 13 of the Use and Care manual. Here's a link: https://products-salsify.geappliances.com/image/upload/s--naYED2k---/jhwl0efhhuz7hitwmwqx.pdf?_ga=2.159308280.315225588.1685470995-1738956166.1665760597 If this doesn't resolve the issue, more troubleshooting tips can be found on page 22. Thanks for writing a review. We hope this helps you get the quality wash you deserve. Take care. -Sylvia@GEA

            Super Quiet
            Had this for over a year. Hard to tell when it's running. So Far, Very Good. Don't forget to Clean the Filter, it Twists Out of the bottom. One a month or so use a Half cup of Citric Acid to clean the Whole Dishwasher. Keeping it clean will make it last longer.

              My Dishes Are Clean
              I have had good experiences with GE appliances and dishwashers are important. I have tried every other brand at other properties and this time around I have a GE dishwasher, washer, and drier and I am proud of it.

                Worked great for 3 days
                It was a nice and quiet dishwasher for 3 days. I woke up this morning to find that one of the roller assemblies from the bottom rack had become dislodged and then melted into the heating element. I’ve never seen anything like this before, it’s a major design flaw. Someone was sleeping at the factory when they put this together Now I need to figure out how to deal with this.

                  Love My New Dishwasher
                  It has a nice look—NOT too much on the front of the dishwasher. GE brand and towel bar. All the controls are on the top of the door. Runs very quiet…really cannot tell it’s on.

                    It arrived full of swamp-smelly water in hose and machine
                    I moved the supposedly “brand new” machine hose and our newly remodeled kitchen was seasoned with a heavy shower of stinky water. If you’ve ever had a dog escape and come home wet and smelling like rotten fish, you get the idea. Our just-washed dishes smell like rotten fishes. Home Depot told me thats bormal for GE. It would he been nice of Home Depot to tell me before the purchase Even after several washes and six days later. Even woth cascade platinum. Also, I used the 1-hour setting and dishes were dirty so I added another Platinum pod and ran the same dishes on the highest setting. The highest setting did better, but some dishes still didn’t clean.

                      This dishwasher is beautiful
                      We just installed it yesterday so have only used it 1 time. It did a good job. The controls are easy. Its quiet. I like the bottle washers. The installation was a bit difficult for my husband, who has some experience doing the job.

                            Clean and Quiet, 2 of my fav things!
                            Bought this dishwasher to replace a GE Nautilus that lasted 20 years. Salesman said I won't get anywhere near 20 years with a new one (any brand), but I already knew that I was going to stick with a GE.I love the new one. It has a stainless interior and seemingly holds more than my previous one, even though they're technically the same size. I was running the old one every day, seems like I only have to run the new one every other. Don't use the bottle jets much, but they're nice to have. Installation was straightforward. Dishes come out perfect and dry. Couldn't be happier.

                              I have had 3 defective dishwashers including the one I currently have. they did come and remove the first two but need to contact for the current one. the heating element is not working and when the cycle is done the inside of walls and dishes are soaking wet.see attached photo I had these exact same dishwasher in PA without any issues maybe because I bought it from a mom and pop store instead of a big box one

                                  My wife loves this dishwasher especially with the No fingers prints after our grandchildren have left. The only real complaint is this dishwasher is noisy and wish GE would have put on the thick jewt Matt around it instead a light type thin insulator. We believe this would solve the noise issue. Other than that the stainless steel interior is the best always look clean and expensive.

                                    It's very new to us, installed just yesterday. But it is so quiet compared to our last GE dishwasher that was the same decibel rating. So far, we are very happy with our purchase. All my appliances have been GE. I still continue to be loyal to the brand.

                                      Horrible design, cheaply made
                                      I have owned this dishwasher for 1 year and have had to replace the wheels on the bottom rack with 20 replacements. There are 8 wheels on the bottom rack that constantly pop off. They will melt onto your bottom heating element and be ruined. The wheels snap onto a cheap plastic hub that does little to hold the wheels on. The trim on the door is cheaply made and constantly separates from the door. I have reglued it on three times in the past year.

                                          I got this model because of the option to do a half load. I’ve only been using for a few weeks but so far I’m very happy. This dishwasher is incredibly quiet and the dishes come out clean and mostly dry. I haven’t used the dry boost yet though. I would highly recommend this dishwasher.

                                                  On my third GE dishwasher. I kinda need to stick with them due to the flooring in my kitchen being raised. I did have my last one fail after three years but I did get the extended warranty this time so should be no issues this go around. I really like the hard food disposer and it’s quiet!

                                                      This is our 2nd purchase of this module. We had to buy a 2nd dishwasher when we moved and sadly my husband picked up some other cheap model (other brand) that gave us nothing but problems, so we rebought this model and learned a lesson! It’s quiet, easy to run and gets the dishes very clean. We will never pick another brand again

                                                          Great Clean. Quiet enough for sleeping baby
                                                          I was so impressed. The cycles run quietly. Cleans dishes thoroughly even on quick wash. Love the pre-set cycles. We have owned this dishwasher for a few months and our water bill is lower than it was when we were washing dishes by hand. The best investment.
