Given both spray ars run at once, this should either be the rinse only or quick cycle. Also note the soft start of the pump, slowly increasing the pressure. |

Has been standard on Meiko door type and undercounter dish machines for quite some time. At least on the US models. A factory rep told me that this feature helps reduce chipping and cracking of glassware and fine china.
Interesting to see that Elux has transferred this technology to the home dishwasher market. Although being as NO home DW sprays with anywhere near the force or at the temp of a commercial DM I can see no reason for it. WK78 |

My concern is that I see no possible way for there to be good coverage in the corners of the bottom rack. I've never had or used a dishwasher in which a glass couldn't be put into the corners and not come out clean, even in that horrid GE Nautilus we had. But that circular contraption looks to barely pass under the very outer edges at the sides, much less the corners. Sure, the lower rack is typically intended for plates and pots and pans, but the flexibility would be missed because there have been times I've had a load that had more cups and glasses than anything else.

My Frigidaire had the Blade Spray arm, which was basically the same thing but just a rectangle. I was looking to buy the Orbit Spray arm until I realized that it didn't have any more holes in it. I couldn't see the advantage over what I had.
Andrewyou are right though, corner coverage wasn't the best. I had to be careful where I placed my blender or the half gallon tall Tupperware containers I use for half and half. If they were too far in the corner, they wouldn't get clean. But just a smidge over and they were fine. |
