Overall Rating: 4.5 / 5 (Excellent)

The GE GDF650SMJES is a solid performer in its category. Its slate finish is striking and resists fingerprints more effectively than stainless and other colors. The control panel is thoughtfully laid out and easy to understand. Inside, the adjustability of the upper rack gives consumers more options for cleaning unusually large items below. In comparison to other models in its price range, it doesn't have a huge number of electronic bells and whistles, but given the expense and hassle involved in repairing or replacing those items, this may be a blessing. It comes with the standard one-year warranty and is a sound choice for consumers who want a handsome, reliable machine.

Performance - 4.5 / 5

This GE dishwasher offers four different automatic wash cycles and two drying options. It can be set to a delayed start, which is helpful for people who don't want to wash right after they load. The appliance's adjustable upper rack can be raised up to allow extra tall items to fit in the lower rack. GE claims that the unit accommodates 16 place settings. This is a solid array of performance features. While its noise level is somewhat higher than others in its class, it's still within acceptable limits for all but the most sound-conscious consumer.

We bought this dishwasher in 2017. We have replace the door switch 4 times, and the control panel once. And it now needs a new control panel again, which 2 companies tell me is no longer available for this unit. I've had several dishwashers in the past 40 years, and this is by far the worst for reliablity.
