Inquiring minds need to know.. Here's tonight's load... 3 before pics when i originally loaded it and 3 after pics trying to cram 2 bowls, a mesuring cup and one more pot in there dishwasher.. and the dirty broiler pan i never rinsed
Am tempted to throw some powerded cascade in for a pre wash, but also think i wanna see how well it handles this load Main concern is how the top broiler pan is loaded... the two items (blue bowl and mesuring cup may impede full spay power to scrub pan bottom Also wonder if there is enough clearance for the broiler top to get scrubber.. It only fits there in this machine.. So far i am very hopeful.. using a Finish QUantam Tab... I know that Quinoa is the only thing this machine hates and it handles that even with out much more than a few yibbles... Also a piece or two of rice has remained on the door... So is this a bob load? Or could i have loaded more? Critique away~! |

when you're loading dirty non rinsed dishes, etc, and you really want to add another one or two items, or maybe 3 or 4, but you don't see how it will be possible, but you figure it out, and then end up loading the dishwasher without the spray arms being blocked - run the machine, and at the end, everything is spotless. I've done this several times. I only run my dishwasher every 3 days or so but it's always packed to the max. It holds a lot.

Just a little burned on stuff on the bottom right corner where something was touching it.. It wiped right off though
Everything else clean.. Used Finish QUantum, on Auto Sense with Sani Temp Water and Heated Dry |

So I put it all away... The pan that is not facing down in the direct center, had some dried on like water with korn yibbles,... Not bad, but some how a few pieces of korn got in there and left that and a korn husk on a fork... But nothing i couldn't rinse off
Im really impressed.. only my jetcleans have done so well.. This was SO worth replacing |

But Bob has certified you.
I'm impressed. My parents' Maytag - one of the very last real ones - does well with corn and broiler pans using the sensor. Pity Whirlpool didn't adopt any of the good Maytag technology. There's actually an argument to be made that the grease combines with the alkaline builders in the detergent to make a soap - which holds further dirt in suspension and results in a cleaner load than if it all had been pre-rinsed to death. |

I try and always leave the grease behind.. I always thought thats what the sensors mesured.. That and the turbitity> of the water (how much is floating in it)....
I don't think it would have gone as well, had i rinsed the crap out of the broiler pans also have run several similar loads in the old bosch and it would have been filthy still my maytag that was here when i moved in was even better... |

I am thoroughly impressed as well.
My parents have that same GE, and I have the upper end Profile, and I was still impressed. Especially the broiler pan. I'll fry bacon in my stainless skillets. They'll be gross but not burned on too much, and those will only come partially clean with a few bits left. But they scrape off. That pan though........wow. These GEs are interesting. There are many times where I look at something and think "there's no way it'll come clean." And then it emerges spotless. LOL! Other times there are items I completely expect to come clean, and then they'll still some guk on them (facepalm). ahhh, machines...... |

Take a dishwasher and load to stated capacity, and then some more, add more , then fill over the gaps, and then some more, then await certification !!

From this weekend and the Kenmore elite I got last November. that's a small broiler pan facing the TurboZone jets. Sat overnight encrusted, didn't touch anything at all, including the grease residue. Came totally clean. I couldn't do this in a one arm wonder!! Most of my loads are similar. Thus one of THOSE couldn't survive in my house and kitchen. Totally useless for my lifestyle!!!

Seeing that odd thing in Bobs dishwasher reminded me of this..
was in sears buying my first new fridge in 2003 and my buddy was me, and he wason leave from Afganastan... We stroll by the large 22 cu ft chest freezers to the scratch and dent area, salesman in tow and he just stops, opens one up and says "Gee, we could sure use these over seas, they would hold a bunch of corpses"... I and the salesman exchanged this slightly horrified glare and look...He started laughing and the salesman and i just kept looking ahead... I hurried up and bought a 21 cu ft whirlpool on scratch and dent and got outta there... I tried to say something, but i couldn't... Soon after, i lost touch with him and kinda glad i did |
