America's Smartest Dishwasher
It's simply genius! The SmartDispense™ reservoir holds an entire 45-oz. bottle's worth of liquid dishwasher detergent, automatically dispensing just the right amount for every load.
Sound Ideas
Kitchens stay quieter with GE's QuietPower™ sound packages. The QuietPower7 models, with a hidden vent and additional insulation to seal in the sound, are our quietest ever at 47 dBA.
Ultimate Flexibility
Angled Rack Dry™ system securely holds mugs and cups at an angle so water won't pool on top. Single Rack Wash™ selection saves time and energy by washing up to five place settings in the top rack only.
