[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the dishwasher. It is quiet and it does a great job. The installation went great and I couldn’t be happier with the GE product. GE to me means quality appliances that you will have for years to come.
It is quiet and cleans dishes well. The cycles are adequate, and are simple to use. Installation was quick with no issues. There are very few features, such as drop down shelf for serving spoons or utensil basket cover to keep small items from flying around while washing. The racks are quite cheap and flimsy and dishes clank around when pulled in or out to load due to the very lightweight wire racks, and first dish loaded bangs on the sides of the dishwasher, as it is angled to close to the edge. I do not believe the racks will hold up for long, and sure the prongs will break off soon. I hope replacements are available if needed in the future. Also, the capacity is not equal to my old dishwasher, although the same measurement.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We're glad to assist you with your dishwasher by providing some helpful loading tips that will help with the racks. The upper rack is primarily for glasses, cups, and saucers. For best wash performance, tilt cup and glass openings toward the center of the rack. The lower rack is best used for plates, saucers and cookware items. Large items, such as broiler pans and baking racks should be placed along the sides of the rack.
You can refer to pages 11-15 of the owner's manual for additional loading tips. Here is the link: https://products-salsify.geappliances.com/image/upload/s--3wSe9zks--/a59b5d15aed1d69ae0bc2b25d1613503520e95e4.pdf

We want to help you with your dishwasher's operation. We recommend Pouring 1 quart of water into the dishwasher to lubricate the pump seals and eliminate rattling and squealing. Allow the dishwasher to run for up to 10 minutes, then check to see if more water has entered the tub. Additional troubleshooting can be found here: https://products.geappliances.com/appliance/gea-support-search-content?contentId=17392
If your issue persists after troubleshooting, we recommend scheduling service with one of our Bodewell technicians by calling 1-833-426-3393 or visiting us online at: https://www.geappliances.com/ge/service-and-support/service.htm
The materials are cheap and made out of plastic. It doesn’t feel sturdy. It sounds loud during the wash. The dishes do come out clean and dry.

We'd like to lend a hand with your new dishwasher. With the unit not feeling sturdy, it may need to be leveled. The dishwasher must be leveled left to right and front to back. We recommend referring to page 10 of the installation instructions for guidance. Here is the link: https://products-salsify.geappliances.com/image/upload/s--o3qf-gw5--/492ab846f22e21cede3855223e99daa9f4a22306.pdf
As far as the sounds, actual sound levels can be a little different once an appliance is installed in the home. You might find your dishwasher is quieter or louder than the decibel rating suggests (This unit has a dBa of 60). The sound level of a dishwasher can depend on the installation location, the cabinetry where it is located, the flooring, the countertop above it, what's loaded in the dishwasher, and even whether the dishwasher is full of dishes or partially empty.
You can refer here for more information on sounds: https://products.geappliances.com/appliance/gea-support-search-content?contentId=16269
