GE Dishwashers Reviews

Inherited a GE dishwasher when we bought the house. Approx. 5 years old or less. It kept making strange beeping hours at all hours before it just up and died. Repair service explained the 2 of the 3 main parts for this dishwasher were discontinued by GE and replaced with other parts. The one part we needed to fix it doesn't exist anymore, so the dishwasher is headed is to the scrap heap. There's no way I'll ever buy a GE product.

My GE model GDT605PSM0SS lasted 6 years with light use. Then control board died, would be $470+ to fix it, so decided to replace the dishwasher with another brand. The good news is GE makes it easy to schedule service appointments.

Terrible Experience with Teknoton: GE Dishwasher Service Nightmare I recently moved into a brand-new home built by Taylor Morrison, complete with all new GE appliances, including a dishwasher that was supposed to be top-of-the-line. From day one, the dishwasher has been completely non-functional—leaking water, failing to drain... It's under full warranty, yet resolving this has been an absolute disaster thanks to Teknoton, GE's authorized service provider. We've had three separate service calls from Teknoton technicians over the past few months, and each time, they've left without fixing the issue. The first visit: they "inspected" it and said it needed a part. Weeks later, the second call: part installed, but it still didn't work. Third call: more poking around, vague promises, and zero resolution. Their techs seem undertrained or just uninterested, and follow-up communication is nonexistent. Every time I call, they act like it's the first they've heard of it

Purchased/installed a GE GDF650SYVFS, March 2024. Control panel failure October 2024, 2nd failure, August 2025. Unreliable. No electrical issues in the home. Long-time GE brand buyer. No longer. There once was quality in the GE brand. Not so with this unit. Look elsewhere.

Purchased a "super quiet" GE Profile dishwasher along with 3 other GE appliances 6 months ago. It became evident quickly that the dishwasher frequently left food particles on the dishes, even if they were rinsed first. Had the technician come out who said the unit was working as intended, and that dishwashers in general had de lined in manufacturing quality. Now, chunks of black material are falling out of the bottom of the door. Turns out this is sound proofing insulation. The door panel now has to be replaced, thankfully under warranty. Am so disappointed - GE was always considered so reliable. This is the first set of new appliances I have ever had, and I'm over 70!

I am waiting for my 4th Cafe Dishwasher. The first one was delivered with a broken door. Did not install. Picked up and replaced. The second one was delivered with a torqued body so the door did not shut properly. Did not install. Picked up and replaced. The third one was installed and steam escapes and forms condensation underneath the counter top. Then drips onto the control pad and then drips down the door when opened. GE opted to replace it after a service call adding a new seal and inner door panel did not solve the problem. I still have this one and I am waiting for the new one to be installed. It actually runs well and does a good job cleaning the dishes, but the door leak creates the condensation. I have read other reviews with this same problem.

We had a fire in our control box in our GE dishwasher that caused a fire and burnt the wiring. The machine is only 4 years old. It could have been a dangerous situation if we were asleep or not home when it happened.

We bought a GE Profile dishwasher and it is the absolute worst one I've ever had. I scrape and rinse and still have to re-wash many dishes. Also have to clean the filter at least every two days. Don't recommend. Look around for something better.

We have a GE washer, it’s been trouble from day one, rinsed plates come back with particles of food, glasses cloudy and with some sort of grime. We have cleaned filters and spray out the bottom of the washer. Never worked so hard on a dishwasher that doesn’t clean dishes or glasses. GE should be ashamed.

I do not recommend the GE dishwasher model PDT145SSLOSS. Be prepared to wash dishes thoroughly before loading. Hard to use the Start button. Does not clean, sanitize, or dry. Runs way too long with horrible results, even when using hot water from the supply. The flatware rack does not lock in. Dishes do not stay fixed within the rack holders. Tall 6-inch glasses fall over. GE emphasizes energy efficiency, which is countered by the long-run cycle. In my opinion, there are no energy savings because it continues to run. GE emphasizes energy efficiency, which is just more work, requiring manual cleaning of dishes that come out dirty and wet.
