although the dishwasher was "new" I didn't have much faith in the performance due to an issue with GE appliance I owned years ago.. unfortunately, this dishwasher doesn't work properly at all.. never dries the dishes, pots and pans are never really clean (constantly have water spots, detergent residue on everything.. today I noticed an odor similar to burning rubber but don't see any damage but doesn't mean there isn't a problem
