A:AnswerHello star - this is Nancy at GE Appliances and I am happy to help you. This is one of our top-of-the-line dishwashers. It does not have the option of turning off the "pre-rinse" feature. However, keep in mind that this dishwasher is very energy and water efficient. I hope this helps! Thanks for checking with us!
A:AnswerHello verticallychallenged - this is Nancy at GE Appliances and we are happy to help you. The cabinet space for this dishwasher from the floor to the bottom of the countertop should be anywhere from 33-1/2" to 34-3/4". I hope this helps! Thanks for checking with us!
