So I moved to a new apt. a month ago, and was delighted to find it full of relatively new GE kitchen appliances. Everything works great and looks great. Here's the DW, GSD4000n with the active micro filter under the wash arm. It only uses 5.2 gal. of water on Normal, but you've guessed it, it's run time is a bit extended because of it. But that's ok, it's still under 2hrs. |

Nice styling. I like the controls to be visible, hidden ones annoy me. What is the difference between 'Heavy Wash' and 'Pots & Pans'? |

Heavy Wash uses 7.5 gallons of wateer and is 108 minutes long. Pots'n'Pans uses 8.8 gallons of water and is 112 minutes long. I suspect the other main difference is the P'n'P cycle turns the heater on during the main wash phase at least, but is not thermostatically delayed. Heavy Wsah has more water exchanges (1 more) than normal wash and adds 3 minutes. Those stated times do not include an additional 30 minute heated dry when that option is selected.

ahh, thanks for the heat boost clarification. i wondered why the high temp rinse was the same time as the regular final rinse..... either way, this machine has actually cleaned some pots and pans better than the old Triton XL i had at my last place, which was also a very good machine, but it had issues with starchy pots. this thing does it all. |
