GE Profile - 24" Top Control Smart Built-In Stainless Steel Tub Dishwasher with 3rd Rack, Dedicated Jet Targeted Wash and 42 dBA - Black Stainless Steel

Great dishwasher., lots of room, easy to operate, easy to clean . It’s great when we have family parties, nobody needs to step away from the fun to stand at the sink to wash dishes

Our old Frigidaire dishwasher finally gave out, and we upgraded to this GE Profile. It's clear that dishwasher technology has come a long way in the last 20 years, because this machine is a huge improvement. Pros: * Perfect for Baby Items: This is the main reason we love it. The third rack is a game-changer for bottle nipples, and the enclosed silverware basket securely holds all the tiny parts. Everything comes out perfectly clean. I've attached photos to show how great the racks are for this. * Excellent Cleaning: The results speak for themselves. Dishes are consistently spotless. Cons: * Long Cycle Times: To quote my wife, "agonizingly long cycles" The cycles are longer than I'm used to, but it's a worthwhile trade-off if cleanness if your number one concern. Installation: I handled the installation myself. It was sort of easy for a novice, but be warned, it did take forever. Still, I was happy to get it done without hiring a professional. Overall: We are thrilled with this purchase. It has made managing the daily deluge of baby bottles so much easier. I'd strongly recommend it. I hope it holds up but if not that's why I bought it from Best Buy with their awesome return policy when you buy the protection plan.

This GE Profile model should be avoided at all cost. The lower spray arm is plastic, not metal. This leads to the potential for the lower spray arm to eventually contact the heating element thusly melting. This doesn’t completely render the dishwasher useless. But what it causes is the water to spray outward rather than upward. As a result, the owner learns that the seal for this dishwasher is not watertight, allowing water to leak out. Reasearch these issues and you’ll find out that this is a common issue with this dishwasher. So, why isn’t the seal watertight and the lower spray arm metal? Most likely, one can only assume, to save the company money. But not all is lost for those who are protected. For those who’ve invested in Best Buy’s Total Tech Membership, you’ll have a 2 years warranty on products like this dishwasher. Speaking personally, the Total Tech Membership has saved me thousands of dollars. And Best Buy’s Customer Service has always been amazingly helpful and wonderful to deal with. Total Tech is a must!

Looks great and has some great features, however could never recommend. Positives: 1. the wash jets under the utensil basket, cup holders (2nd rack), and knife rack in the 3rd rack are great. 2. The 1st and 2nd rack are very larger compared to the 5yr old Bosch we previously had. 3. It’s fairly quiet. Cons: 1. This is the biggest; it doesn’t always clean. Dishes go through a full cycle with steam, and pots and mixing bowls come out with food on them still. We scrape out the dishes before they go in, and usually spray them down. What is the point in having a dishwasher when you have to hand wash dishes coming out? I clean the filter weekly and run dishwasher cleaner through it every 3 weeks. We used cascade platinum tablets originally and then tried Finish Quantum, no change. This is the first dishwasher in over 30 years where I have dirty dishes coming out. And in most cases, the food remaining after the cycle can just be wiped out, it’s not like it’s even baked on! Absolute garbage. 2. Third rack is too small height wise to be useful for much of anything. 3. 2nd shelf is not removable and tines do not fold down on 1st or 2nd shelf. 4. Dishwasher is only a few months old and I noticed a small piece of plastic has chipped off on the top (not even sure how that could have happened, since that part sits under the counter unless the door is open! 5. This is a lesser gripe, but the utensil rack has a tendency of slipping out of its groove often. 6. The interior feels very flimsy and cheap, it doesn’t match the quality appearance of the exterior. I highly regret not buying the Kitchenaid 3-rack over this model; we chose this one over that solely for the free installation offer ($200+ value); we should have spent the additional money and bought the brand we trust.

Very nice dishwasher. Get dishes very clean even on standard settings. Extremely quiet!
