This is a mid-priced dishwasher that functions pretty well. The dishes come out clean. It's noisy but if you don't need the dishes right away you can set it to turn on while you're asleep. After the regular cycle sometimes the dishes are very wet. Our previous, more expensive dishwasher from another company didn't last as long as we hoped, given the price, so we spent less on this one. I don't think it makes sense to spend a lot on a dishwasher if it won't last long. We bought this after a friend said they'd had a GE dishwasher for 15 years without problems. After I bought it I learned that a Chinese appliance maker bought the operation in 2016. This is their dishwasher with a GE name on it. I hope lasts as long as my friend's dishwasher.
