Finally, a dishwasher that fully cleans my dishes!
on February 27, 2024
Posted by: ljh3822
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Cafe dishwasher combines customization and functionality for optimization. This dishwasher is fully utilized when connected to the SmartHQ app, which connected with ease on my first attempt. I have the ability to monitor my dishwasher from anywhere and I can customize and run cycles with just a few buttons, get notified when a load is finished, when to clean the filter, as well as other alerts and reminders to run and properly maintain the dishwasher. This dishwasher is very quiet and you will probably not notice it is running, which I enjoy.
A favorite feature of mine is the multitude of wash cycles and options I am able to customize. This dishwasher can pre-soak and sanitize, which runs at a high temperature to help loosen food before the wash cycle. This has made a noticeable difference in getting my dishes fully clean. I have not had to rewash dishes like I had to with our previous dishwashers. The adjustable racks were designed to recognize that one size does not fit all when it comes to the items going through the dishwasher. You are able to load your dishwasher as you want, sliding the handle on the top rack to allow for really tall items on the middle rack and pushing down sections on the lower two racks to fit larger items.
The bottom basket has a dedicated set of jets underneath to really get in there and clean its contents. The top rack also has a removable utensil tray with its own set of jets, so if you have a cup or bowl that needs a deep clean, this would be the perfect location for that. A few other features include leak detection, four bottle jets, and dedicated wash zones. If you want to run half a load, you can create a wash zone to only wash the upper or lower rack. This will not only save time, but also conserve energy and water. I also wanted to note that while every dinnerware set is different in size and shape, this actually fits our stuff, whereas the previous two we have owned have required creative placement to get certain dishes/cups to fit.
At the end of the day, I feel this dishwasher is a great investment. It looks nice, it is quiet, and the customization of both the cycle options and the dishwasher rack layout provide everything needed to keep family meals running smoothly. With the addition of it being wi-fi, smart enabled, this is a no-brainer for this busy mom.

Overall an amazing clean
on February 29, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have never owned a dishwasher with the control buttons on top and was very confused how it worked at first. I didn't have instructions and thankfully the Internet was useful on figuring it out.
The app works ok, but I haven't quite gotten the hang of all the different options available.
Some of the settings are not needed for what we use a dishwasher for, but I'm glad they are available in case we ever do need them.
This specific dishwasher has 3 drawers on it that are customizable . The bottom drawer has the option to lay down the rows in order to make room for bigger items . The bottom silverware holder in my opinion is flawed. The holes are too big and our silverware drops down in them, forcing us to use the top drawer that you have to tediously place in the slots to get them cleaned.
The spaces on each level are too wide and let them slip through and you need to be careful with placements.
The middle drawer has the amazing bottle sprays to clean the dried on nastiness of whatever needs washed . It also has a nice area that kids are supposed to be placed, but again the spaces are too wide and my tumbler lids either fall through or can't clip into place so it just doesn't work well for me. There is also customizable options for this area as well to place bigger or smaller things in the rows that I like
Onto the top row. It has a place for silverware to be laid in slots to clean it very well. The right side will slide over to make room for the taller cups/bottles that need washed on the second level. I especially liked that for our blender bottle that needed washed.
Overall it cleans much better than our previous dishwasher without needing the extra hot water or extra dry time. If I did the max everything it would take 4 hours for a cycle. We are happy with the auto cycle with normal heat and try and it takes about 2 hours.

This dishwasher keeps my dishes spotless
on March 1, 2024
Posted by: qromi
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Café dishwasher has been an amazing upgrade from our previous dishwasher. The design of the dishwasher is very modern, sophisticated and sleek, but it’s still super user-friendly. It has all the greatest features that are so nice to have and makes cleaning dishes so satisfying. Particularly noteworthy are the dedicated silverware and bottle sprayers, ensuring spotless cleanliness for glasses, baby bottles, and travel mugs. The inclusion of a top shelf for larger utensils and baby bottle parts is a standout feature. Moreover, its array of wash and drying options, which can be saved as favorites for convenience, offer optimal flexibility. This dishwasher is a true lifesaver, effortlessly delivering pristine dishes with the simple press of a button.

State of the ART!
on March 2, 2024
Posted by: sharon2599
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was immediately shocked when I opened this how AMAZING it is. It has so much storage for so many different hard to wash items. I enjoy all the different areas that I can move around to accommodate practically anything. I love how sleek this looks also. The bar with the gold on it screams premium, and that’s what this product is. I love how I can program everything on my phone. Amazing settings that can wash everything, and anything. This product washes and dries extremely well. Many different cycles. The only complaint I had, was it came with some scratches on the front. I’m assuming from shipping. But all in all a dream dishwasher.

The Cafe Dishwasher w/ SmartHQ is amazing!
on March 2, 2024
Posted by: melaniem307
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This dishwasher has literally everything you would want in an appliance. It was very easy to install. It was an hour from start to first use! We are loving the three racks! The silverware container and top rack have their own jets to allow utensils to get perfectly clean. It is well constructed with a stainless steel interior, as well as heavy duty, yet beautiful handle. The top controls are great if you have children, as well as making the appliance look more sleek. The Smart HQ is a total game changer. This features allows you to not only control the dishwasher from you home devices or phone, but also alerts you to issues and diagnostics. We will be purchasing more Cafe products in the future! Top of the line!! A+++++!!

Best Dishwasher I’ve Ever Owned!!
on March 2, 2024
Posted by: iamabrahamfroman
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The GE Cafe CDT858P2VS1 Dishwasher is not only everything I wanted in a dishwasher but it’s also got things that I didn’t even know that I wanted!
This dishwasher is amazing. It’s got three racks. The top rack has a special tray that sits on top of its own water sprayer. The other half of the top tray retracts so that you can fit tall items on the middle rack. The middle rack is one of the deepest middle racks that I’ve ever seen on a dishwasher. It also has adjustment points to fit in anything you could ever want. The bottom rack is equally impressive. The silverware basket sits on the bottom and has its own dedicated water spray points just like the basket in the top rack.
This dishwasher is quiet too! I barely know that it’s running. The insulation that surrounds the dishwasher is THICK and aids in sound dampening.
This is also a smart dishwasher that connects to WIFI. It gives me remote control, the ability to send voice commands from my Google Home client and sends me notifications to let me know when my dishes have finished washing. And if the smart functions intimidate you, you can still operate the dishwasher from the door panel.
This is the most luxurious dishwasher that I’ve ever seen. The future is here and it’s inside my GE Cafe Dishwasher. If you’re looking to upgrade or replace your current dishwasher, this is the one you want to get!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got my hands on the Cafe Smart Energy Star Dishwasher, and wow, it's a game-changer! First off, it's so darn quiet; I can barely hear it running. And get this – no need to rinse dishes beforehand, they come out sparkling clean every time! The ultra-dry feature? A total bonus! Plus, it's super easy to use, like, no-brainer easy. If you're tired of the dishwasher hassle, this one's a winner. Trust me, you won't regret it!

Sleek and quiet
on March 10, 2024
Posted by: sarahf904f
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The GE Cafe line dishwasher is amazing! I was lucky enough to to obtain one from GE & Influenster. I love how stylish it is and the custom fit lid caddy is awesome with how many cups my kids use, the lids don’t get tossed around the dishwasher. There is an adjustable middle rack which is genius. The top rack is great for spatulas. Overall I would recommend this dishwasher if you are in need of an upgrade!
