Had I shopped in store instead of online, I would have upgraded just a bit.  I like GE appliances and happy with the performance of this dishwasher, but it looks and feels a bit cheap and flimsy.  I live alone and use the dishwasher minimally, my old GE was in my kitchen 20 years. I didn't feel the need for all the bells and whistles in performance, but if appearance is important I would suggest a few extra dollars.
