A:Answeryes to jet dry soap weird, If you use pods you have to place it in the flatware basket I sometimes use gel and have not had an issue but they said liquid . The dispenser is very awkwardly placed. I thought this was a cool appliance but I have had it 4 months and totally regret it. The racks are hard to use the bottom drawer can't handle oversized plates , bowls fall over and glasses are an ongoing puzzle. Think long and hard before purchasing. I miss my wonderful Maytag.
A:AnswerHi there, thanks for reaching out to ask. Per page 11 of the Use and Care manual, do not use liquid detergent in this dishwasher. Also, do not place tablets or put liquid detergent in the detergent dispenser. If using a tablet or gel pouch, place it in the cutlery basket or at the edge of the base rack. You can read more about the detergent dispenser on pages 11 and 12 of the Use and Care manual. If you need to take a look at that, you can view it on our website. Hope this helps! All the best. -Michael@Cafe
A:AnswerHi, and thank you for reaching out to us. When the cycle is running, the drawer is locked closed. To open the drawer mid cycle, you must pause the cycle. Since there are no controls on the outside of the dishwasher, you must knock on the right side of the drawer front, 2 knocks, wait for 3 seconds and then open the drawer. We hope this helps. Have a great day! -Mel@Cafe
A:AnswerHi - Thank you for your interest in our beautiful Café double drawer dishwasher. The interior tub and door liner are plastic. This is a beautiful model dishwasher and we do hope you choose this Café model for your home. We recommend checking with Fisher & Paykel for information regarding the appliances they offer. All our best! Vikki@Café
A:AnswerHi there,
Thank you so much for asking about this incredible dishwasher! It is not possible to have the drawers installed separately. This is one complete unit. If you have any other questions, we're always happy to answer. Take care! Mike@Cafe
A:AnswerHi there! We appreciate your interest in this great dishwasher. The drawers can be run at the same time or independently. If there’s anything else we can do to help, please let us know. Have a great day. -Gina@Café
A:AnswerDon’t buy it. You get notified on your phone when it starts running and when it completes but no one else in the house does so if your not in the kitchen to announce the cycle is complete the family puts dirty dishes in. Epic fail not including a light or alert on the dishwasher confirming progress of the cycle. Dishes don’t come clean anyway so stay clear of this one!
A:AnswerWhen the dishwasher is in the pause mode it will beep intermittently. If this happens again press the pause button on the control panel than close the drawer to resume the cycle. If this doesn't help, we recommend that you reset the electronics by flipping the breaker off for at least 2 minutes. Then restore power. If this continues, please take advantage of your warranty and reach out to Bodewell at 1-833-426-3393.
A:AnswerCheck with GE to see if there is a kit available - the cafe handles are key to the operation of the drawers and they would have to be removed and retrofitted to the cabinetry to work properly. We actually removed the previous panel from our old dishwasher to reveal the sleek beauty of the dark gray steel .
A:AnswerYou don’t really need them. If you take out the bottom drawer you will find built in fins that you can screw to the side cabinets. They are in the front and back they have cutouts in the insulation.
A:AnswerOver the years, we have with great success used both plastic and stainless in the design of the tub and door liners in our dishwashers. The decision as to which to use on a specific model is determined by our engineering and design teams for several reasons. We have in the past developed and utilized some of the most durable plastic materials available and have no reservations using plastic in our beautiful Café dishwashers. Our drawer model dishwashers are not available with a stainless interior.
A:AnswerYes, but the rack is tightly compacted and some dishes do not sit well in the washer I have also noticed that the bottom draw seems to never completely drain after a cycle I see a layer of water sitting at the bottom of the draw. The top draw occasionally does the same
