Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of GE GDWT260RSS Fully Integrated Dishwasher - Stainless Steel
Customer Review: Basic no frills dishwasher
Summary: 4 Stars
We bought this dishwasher to replace a 9 year old Frigidaire unit. There was nothing really wrong with the old one but the rack tines were splitting and starting to rust quite a bit. Instead of spending the $125 for new racks, we decided to freshen up the kitchen a bit with a new unit instead (we've already installed a new fridge and stove, so it made sense to update the dishwasher as well). Our only real requirements for the new unit were that we wanted stainless steel finish, that the unit had a rounded stainless handle, hidden controls, and a stainless tub. This unit met our needs and the price was right ($619 at HD w/ free shipping - some of the online retailers had it a bit cheaper but I wasn't comfortable with their return policies in the event that we had an issue -- HD is right up the road if I have a problem). I got the recommended GE install kit for $10 which included a new braided water supply line, brass elbow and a pair of pipe fittings (which I didn't need for my install). I've never installed a dishwasher before but had no problems installing this one but note I was simply installing it into an existing location and not doing a complete install. The installation instructions were clearly written and easy to follow. I will say to make sure that you check for level on both the side to side and also the front to back to avoid leaking (I think if you have it adjusted with the rear tilted too high the front door can leak on the bottom). We've run several washes though the new machine now. We don't tend to put "dirty" dishes in the dishwasher, so I really can't say how it is for cleaning caked or baked on dirt. I'm still getting used to the new racks and figuring out the best way to position our dishes to optimize the load. The unit is very quiet - not so much so that I can't tell that it's running, but it is noticeably quieter than our older Frigidaire unit. The fit and finish is quite nice. The side mounts are nice since we have granite counter tops and can't use the top mounts with the granite. The only thing that we question is how can the stainless "steel" front door not hold a magnet? My kids discovered this trying to put a magnet from our refrigerator onto the new dishwasher and it wouldn't stick. Is the door steel or not? Our stainless stove and fridge facades both hold a magnet, why not the dishwasher? I'll be sure to update my review as we use the dishwasher more.
