I just moved into a new townhouse this past week. And I was quite happy (relieved) to see that it came with a nifty GE Triton XL series dishwasher. This particular one is a GSD6100K. It is pretty much identical to the 6660 that my parents have in every way except that the 6100 has a few less options. So I figured I'd share some photos. I tried watching the wash action with a saran wrapped front, but unlike my last Frigidaire, the wash action is just too powerful for that. The saran wrap was blown off the front pretty quick. All in all, I think these are my favorite modern dishwashers. They clean very well in reasonable time (2hrs or less), are durable and still have powerful spray! |

here's my load from the weekend. it's a partial load, run on Normal with Xtra Hot Wash option. Used a Cascade dual action tab. The dynamic "CleanSensor" Normal cycle ran about 1 hour with 1 main wash and 3 post rinses. 1.2 gallons per fill, weighing in at 4.8 gallons, getting all these dishes clean in just an hour. No Frigidaire or Samsung will do that with such speed. |

for posting. I also did not know that the Oxo salad spinner was dishwasher safe. Lawrence/Maytagbear |

this 6100K has vinyl racks, i can tell. and they're startin' rust in tiny spots. the multi-wattage heater is great. it's the beefiest one i've seen out there on a major dishwasher brand. i love these machines so much. the only thing that irks me is the hard food disposer is shielded from coarse soil by a sump screen. so the disposer is almost pointless.... other than that, they're wonderful. and the sensor is so smart. it fills with only 1.2 gallons at a time and is still able to pump at pretty high pressure with a 1/8th HP motor. If maytag and GE can still have powerful machines with little water, and run all wash arms at the same time, why can't Whirlpool do it? All I hear is how weak their pressure is.... |
