Portable Dishwasher - Black (2020)

Hello - Thanks for reaching out to us, these are great questions! This model is EnergyStar certified to use less than 3.5 gallons per cycle when run on the “AutoSense” cycle. The Light cycle will use 2.4 gallons. The Heavy cycle will use 6.6 gallons. Water usage will vary based on turbidity (soil level). We hope this helps! - Trey@GEA

Good afternoon, We appreciate having you in our wonderful GEA family. We are happy to provide some information about replacing the castors for this machine! As far as replacing the castors for this model, you are able to so with the correct replacement. However, we do not recommend replacing them with a "rollerblade" type of wheel. We currently do not offer any additional replacements for this that will be like the wheels on an office chair. We apologize for this inconvenience. If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us again. Have a great weekend! Drew@GEA

Personally, I just listen to the unit.  If it's completely silent for a good minute and it's been running for about the time on the display when it started, then I disconnect it and open the door. But you have a good point. The machine is defective in design insofar as one can't see the "minutes left" display window when it's running.  Was this even field tested?  I think I know the answer to that.

Manufacturers used to make a type of DW they called "convertible".  These could be taken out of their case and connected directly if you remodelled your kitchen.  Nobody makes them anymore.

Hi Jb05, We appreciate you reaching out and choosing GE Appliances. Citric acid crystals (sometimes called Sour Salt) are used to remove rust stains from objects placed inside the dishwasher. To remove these stains, you can treat with citric acid crystals following the steps below: Fill the detergent cup with three to four ounces of citric acid crystals and close the cup. Run the dishwasher through a normal cycle. Rinse thoroughly by running the dishwasher through another cycle without the crystals but with a full cup of detergent. Repeat the process if one treatment did not completely remove the staining. We hope this helps! Dom@GEA

Hi Valerieilene, Thank you for reaching out and your interest in GE Appliances. We're sorry to hear about the issue with turning on the dry cycle, but we are glad to help! This dryer dishwasher drying feature is, Condensate Drying. Condensate Dry is an energy-efficient drying system on some dishwashers. With this drying system design, condensation will form on cooler surfaces in a warm humid environment. At the end of a cycle, while the dish load is still hot, the stainless steel tub walls are already cooling down and pulling condensation to form on the tub walls instead of the dishes. This provides natural air drying of the dish load. The use of a rinse agent ensures spot and film protection for dishes and assists the drying process. Thanks for checking! Dom@GEA
