    • Convertible: true
    • Tub Finish: Plastic (Certain coatings or materials on the inside of the dishwasher, such as stainless steel, are more durable, retain heat better, and can withstand higher temperatures than materials such as plastic. These higher quality materials may increase the appliance’s efficiency, but there may be also be extra initial cost. Some models marketed as Hybrid will use both materials in the tub, often using stainless steel on the interior door to increase durability on the part of the appliance with the most common wear and tear.)
    • Tall Tub Design: false (Extra capacity of inner tub fits a wide range of dishware shapes and sizes. Standard dishwasher tubs may accommodate 10-12 place settings, while tall tubs may hold 14-16 place settings.)

  • Features
    • Hard Food Disposer: true (This feature has blades to chop and disintegrate hard food particles, making them small enough to easily drain away. This prevents them from being recirculated back onto dishware and allows for easy maintenance.)
    • Drying Method: Heated drying (Appliances that use heat to dry the dishes will include a heating element or minerals which transform moisture into heat. A fan or vent then circulates the hot dry air throughout the tub during the drying cycle. This may reduce drying time and the risk of water spots. Appliances that use minerals to produce heat are considered more energy efficient than those that include a heating element. Appliances that use condensation drying are considered more energy efficient than those that use heated drying. Instead, high temperature water is produced during the final rinse cycle which warms the interior and eventually condensates and drains out of the machine.)
    • Operating Sound Level: 64 decibels adjusted (Today's appliances are pretty quiet. To get a sense for how quiet you'll need, think about having a conversation in the same room. Choose from Not as Quiet (56 dBA or higher. You'll likely need to raise your voice); Quiet (50-55 dBA. Need to raise your voice slightly); Very Quiet (43-49 dBA. Easily have a conversation right next the appliance); and Nearly Silent (42 dBA or lower. You'll hardly know the appliance is on).)
    • Delay Start: false (Allows you to program the appliance to automatically run at a later time. This feature helps you coordinate with your household’s water needs, noise preferences, and more. Additionally, operating your appliance during off-peak hours may reduce energy costs.)
    • End-Of-Cycle Signal: false (An audible alert and/or visual indicator that notifies you when a pre-selected cycle is complete.)
    • Cycle Status Lights: true (Lights on the control panel that indicate which cycle is in use and/or its current status. Know when to unload with a simple glance.)
    • Automatic Detergent Dispenser: true (An interior detergent dispenser that opens automatically before or during the main wash cycle to release pre-loaded detergent into the lower water basin.)
    • Child Lock: false (Setting that allows appliance to be temporarily locked to prevent use.)

Q: We want to use this dishwasher as a portable - does it include the required hoses and electrical cord or is that extra?

A: Hello, This is Joyce from GE. I will be happy to help. The dishwasher comes with everything you will need for a portable installation. In the future if you ever want to install it you will need a conversion kit. The conversion kit part number is WD35X10351. The conversion kits contain a water valve, hardware (brackets, screws, bolts, etc.) and instructions for adapting a GE convertible dishwasher to under-the-counter installation. Note: The conversion does involve alot of disassembly. The sides, top and rollers must be removed, water valve changed and springs re-located. Thanks so much for checking with us. Have a good day!

Q: Hi does this chop food up dispose of it like my old whirlpool I have new one now and it has screen you have take out screen a lot just keep it clean and its annoying and not cleaning well at all

A: Hi deebo- Thanks for considering our GE® Convertible/Portable Dishwasher GSC3500DBB! Yes, the dishwasher has a Piranha™ hard food disposer that grinds food into small particles that are washed away. It also features two-stage, self-cleaning filtration with Extra Fine Filter- Extra filtration keeps the water clean. Keep in touch! SUEatGEA

Q: How does this portable dishwasher work? Do you hook up a hose to the faucet to run water into the dishwasher and then how does the water drain, is there another hose that you need to put into a sink drain? How long is 1 cycle?

A: It hooks up to the spigot at the kitchen sink. There is a hose with an attachment that is self stored in the upper back side of the machine, along with a plug to plug into a wall outlet for power. If needed, the dishwasher comes with an adapter to put on the end of the spigot so that the hose can attach securely when in use. The water drains into the sink from the same attachment. For this machine, a regular cycle is about 1 hour.

Q: Is all the GE dishwasher workable under the 220v, 50hz?

A: Hello Tommy - this is Nancy at GE and I am happy to help you. Our dishwashers should be connected to 120 Volt, 60 Hz. properly grounded individual branch circuit protected by a 15 or 20 Amp circuit breaker or fuse. I hope this helps! Thank you for checking with us!

Q: So if the plumbing connections are on the back then what is the conversion kit for? Can the water connections be moved to the bottom? Ours us a portable connected like a stationary with the connections on the bottom.

A: Hi Robin- Convertible/Portable dishwashers can roll to the sink to do the dishes and then roll out of the way when not in use. A convertible dishwasher gives you great flexibility, since you have the option to later build it in using a conversion kit. Conversion does involve some disassembly of the dishwasher. The sides, top and rollers must be removed, water valve changed and springs re-located. Conversion Kit WD35X10351 sold separately. The portable dishwasher is equipped with a unicouple that attaches to the sink faucet. The unicouple’s small hose carries water from the faucet to the dishwasher. The large hose carries water from the dishwasher to the sink. Orient the faucet with the unicouple attached so water from the unicouple will run into the sink drain. Dishwasher unicouple hoses are 32" from back of unit to the unicouple connection. The hose comes out of the back near the back left corner (same place as the power cord). If the unit is converted to built-in, the connections are made in the front behind the toekick. Thanks for checking with us! SUEatGEA

Q: can this be hooked up to cold water does it heat the water

A: Hello - this is Nancy at GE Appliances and I am happy to help you. This unit has a "Hot Start Option" which will heat the water about 20 degrees F hotter than the incoming water. The incoming water temperature is suppose to be 120 degrees F in order for the dishwasher to clean properly. I hope this helps! Thanks for checking with us!

Q: Where is it made?

A: Hello Mort - this is Nancy at GE Appliances and I am happy to help you. This dishwasher is Made in America, 70 to 90% U.S. Content. I hope this helps! Thanks for checking with us!
