I just replaced my old GW dishwasher that was 8 years old. That is a testament to how well GE appliances are built. This new model is so quiet that I forget that I turned it on. The old one was quiet as well but this new model in the same class as that one is way quieter, has a nice digital display and looks very sleek in design. I am extremely happy with this purchase and performance of GE appliances.  I recommend this dishwasher
