Space is crammed. Half the dish wrack is straight up not partially slanted which is standard for dishes. There are two levels for the top rack; if you use the high level there is no room to put your bottles in the bottle spray section. If you use the lower level, the spinner hits my dishes. The very top rack has no section for straws. Worst of all: the cascade detergent pods are only partially used during the wash, resulting in a goopy blob of detergent to be pulled out of the detergent slot after every single wash. Overall, I am sad to be stuck with this machine for next few years.
