I wonder where the rack on the lid goes in, there is not much space... |

There is a support rod on the left which "holds" the rack up suspended in the position you see. As the lid closes, there';s a pivoting mechanism which adjusts that support arm and the rack slides down perfectly into that open space. Ity all fits together very snug and nice. Anyone notice those two coffee cups on the outside right row of the stationary part of the top rack? Those cups face the outside wall of the interior. I doubt much water reachers their interior. This isn't a KitchenAid top load portable. |

It's a pitty that one cannot see Power Shower and Power Tower. But you're right, it is very unlikely for those cups to be washed in the inside. |

I have a later model MM.
Those plates in the top top rack... that lid will not close unless you pull a "Lisa" like on Green Acres. Those plates are too large and they will hit the lid when trying to close it. You can BobLoad those little machines, but only smaller items can be crammed in those upper racks. I noticed on the GE ads for the earlier model Dishwashers from the 60s undercounter models. They always put plates in the top rack to make it look like the rack can handle it, but there is no way that rack is going to slide in. Maybe with them leaning forward, but that is even doubtful. I agree those coffee cups will not get clean. |

...how the mechanism for the top top rack works. It must be free swinging, otherwise it would fit in in a 180° degrees angle, am I right? |

Seems like the price & if you can get it in any other colors is the clincher...
Otherwise, I hope the majority of buyers aren't too sold on the ad's claim of what it can hold, where what each rack & area (of the 'washing arena') is holding & how well it will perform in getting everything optimally clean (& not a chip, crack, or anything prone to completely break) in the machine!
