Ratings & Reviews for Cafe 24-in Top Control Double Drawer Dishwasher ( Matte White with Brushed Bronze Handles ) 46-Decibel Very Quiet Sound Level

Second special item purchased with problems.

The product was delivered and unboxed completely dented on both sides top and bottom compartments. Is scheduled to be picked up.

Great features!

This is my second Dish Drawer as I had the original from years ago and the Cafe Dish Drawer is outstanding. Cleaning cycles, loading, and the noise level are great upgrades. So happy we purchased.

.Perfect

Perfect for my needs. Very quiet, very efficient, very attractive, and easy programming with numerous options to precisely fit the load.

Fits where the Fridge blocked the last one

Due to the layout of the kitchen, the fridge was blocked our regular dishwasher and it could not open past about half ways. This fit perfectly in the tight area and the doors open completely. Also, if the water does not always drain, then most likely the machine was interrupted by opening the door, just do a rinse cycle and the water will drain.

Annoying controls not user friendly

The start sequence is a big hassle and not user friendly and should be revised. Half the time you think you have started a wash cycle you haven’t. The controls are annoying. Otherwise it’s a good dishwasher.

Worst ever!

Hate it!!!! Takes forever, drawer falls out, components all broken in inside and less than a year old! Doesn’t wash dishes well. ABSOLUTELY HATE it!!!

Operation Needs to Be a Bit More Straight Forward

Purchased machine in 2022 because of the double drawer feature. The machine works pretty well, but just about the most user un-friendly machine ever. GE has done a terrible job providing user information. The owner's manual leaves more questions than answers. Two days ago both machines malfunctioned while I was running at the same time. Top machine was beeping error code (you need to memorize what particular beeps mean) and bottom machine ran for 6 hours (I left and came home). Both machines w...

Beautiful

So far so good. Only a month with it. Sizing is perfect for us. Empty nesters, so we don’t have alot to wash.

Most Un-intuitive Controls

Background: We had a Fisher and Paykel 2-drawer dishwasher for 22 years, and loved it, but a part failed and it was time to replace the machine. To that end we selected a Cafe 2-drawer in white, and were later delighted to learn that it is manufactured for GE Cafe by F&P. I'm an engineer. Between the Owner's Manual and the controls, successfully operating this new dishwasher is challenging even for me. My wife would never be able to figure this out on her own. I installed the SmartHQ app on...

Looks good but doesn’t clean

Great idea it looks great but doesn’t clean. The racking isn’t good and it’s hard to load things right. Everything has to be very clean or the filter gets plugged then you have to clean it. And now when you run it half the time it won’t dissolve the soap tab and you have to run it again. It’s definitely form over function. I would not ever buy it again.

Dishwasher for two

Excellent for small or large families. Perfect for washing small loads

CRAPPY BRAND DOESNT WORK AFTER ONLY 18 MONTH.

this diswasher is crappy in quality. only less than 2 yrs already not working properly. NOT draining all water out and now the board on top doesn't work so the entire nearly 2k is out the window. I thought Cafes are good brand but this dishwasher is poor in quality. To repair it will cost me as much as a NEW dishwasher from other brands like whirlpool or similar brands. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS CRAPPY BRAND OF DISHWASHER.

HORRIBLE, TERRIBLE

the is BY FAR the WORST dishwasher EVER. Additionally, their customer service is non-existent! Don’t say you weren’t warned!

Love it!

I absolutely love the dishwasher. The flexibility of having two different drawers for smaller loads or mis matched sized loads is priceless. With the exception of a few moments in the cycle it is very quiet - start up has an audible sound (which I prefer because I like to make sure it is going) and there are a couple of points in the cycle where it switches over to a a different phase and there is some louder noise, but honestly, it isn't a source of annoyance for me. If I were to ding GE on ...

Beautiful and a great dishwasher

I love love love this dishwasher! So quiet you really don’t know when it’s on. And the app tells you when it’s done. Some don’t like that - but it’s fine with me! Washes everything great! Looks fantastic. I’d say the capacity in the two drawers is more than a single door dishwasher. Wish I had gotten it long ago.

bottom drawer doesn't drain and smells

Bottom drawer won't drain even though it was installed properly by a licensed plumber. It smells even after cleaning the filter and running a wash and i bought the extended warranty but I have to pay to have someone now to come and fix it?????

Quiet, efficient, fast, dishes come out clean!

In my opinion, the one feature that could be improved upon is the system of grids for holding the dishes in place. It’s difficult, especially with bowls, mugs- pieces that are bulky. Also, the utensil basket/ gel pack can be challenging.

Dishwasher

Perfect size for household of two. We now wash our dishes every two to three nights. When we have company, we will use both.

Not fully impressed

I honestly thought I was going to like the drawer but didn't really have a choice because it was what fit in my space. I feel like I waste a lot of space as the tines don't seem to fit my dishes right, so I end up not loading much in either drawer and it seems like I'm running it more often than a single door dishwasher. While I mostly rinse all the dishes before I load them there have been a couple of times where I've used the side shelves for longer utensils and they seem like they don't get a...
