[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the capacity and the additional top pullout shelf. We save on runs due to the capacity/holding.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Nice washer

The washer is very quiet when operating. It does a great job cleaning the dishes with minimal pre rinsing. The drain screen is easy to access and clean.

GE Cafe dish washer

GE Cafe dishwasher is very quiet, you barely know it is running. Cycle typically takes two hours, but cleans dishes nearly as well as hand washing. It does look nice, especially when paired with the rest of the GECafe suite we purchased (refrigerator, stove, drawer microwave, vent hood,& toaster oven) during our kitchen remodel.Racks are adjustable which helps when larger items are placed in the unit.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love our cafe’ dishwasher. It offers multiple cycle choices, it runs quietly, has 2 upper racks, is large capacity and energy efficient. We purchased the matte white finish and it’s really pretty.
I would recommend this to a friend!

the recommended cascade pods not fully dissolving. leaving residue in dispenser cup. water is hot enough.
top rack for glassware does not fully extend/pull out. it sticks or glides roughly. difficult to load.
black plastic strip underneath, front right side, corroded, cracked and broke off after 4 months.

Silent Night

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The topic is noise. There isn't any. I thought the dishwasher didn't run as programmed. I had to get within a foot of it to hear anything.

Decent Dishwasher Grossly Overpriced.

This dishwasher is no better than the 10 yr old Maytag it replaced. The DW is very quiet. It cleans well and has plenty of functional options. The third rack on top is a good idea that doesn’t really work. With the middle rack in the upper position, my tervis tumblers drag on top rack. With the middle rack on the lower setting, the middle rack drags on the dinner plates on the bottom. I tried many times to make this work. Eventually, I removed the top rack. If there was an intermediate height setting on the middle rack, it might have worked. Also, the middle rack doesn’t slide out very smoothly. It has a noticeable drag about halfway out. The utensil caddy so/so. There are plenty of slots, but the utensils tend to get stuck in the holes making it difficult to remove them. After a week of using the DW, I had to call the installer to come back and reattach the DW to the cabinet. The flimsy tabs used to secure the DW came loose on the top support. Installer indicated this was a common problem and design flaw. The DW is very attractive. Hoping it lives up to its reputation for reliability. If it cost three times as much but only last twice as long, that’s not a good value.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
