Architect II Dishwasher
Review

They use innovative technologies and "ecomagination" in order to bring good things to life. It is a GE initiative to be overly aggressive and bring to markets world wide new technologies that can help customers and consumers meet the ever pressing environmental challenges so they can deliver comfort, convenience and electrical protection and control. GE brings imagination to work.

The GSM1800J is a smaller sized unit for space saving. It has a bright brushed stainless steel interior with a lustrous finish for added and lasting beauty that aids in resisting stains and corrosion.

The full length flat door blends nearly seamlessly with the cabinet work that is adjacent to the dishwasher.

The dishwashing unit has nylon racks with a heavy-duty design that secures and protects dishes during each cycle. The upper rack is removable and pulls out completely to allow so you can wash items that you could never have washed in other traditional dishwashers like large cookie sheets and 20 gallon stockpots.

The wash cycle features a China/Crystal selection which protects delicate glassware and dishes by lowering the water temperature during the cycle, as well as a Pots and Pans cycle which scours off burned-on food with hot water and maximum water pressure. Drying options include a Heat Dry option that circulates warm air to quickly and gently dry dishes.

KitchenAid Architect II KUDU03STSS Customer Opinions

One customer lived in an old farmhouse and had limited space. A 24" dishwasher would have taken too much of my cupboard & drawer space.

If there are only two of you this compact size dishwasher will suit our needs to a "T". The GE brand certainly lives up to its name and does a great job.

There were not too many choices in the 18" version so I was relieved to see GE as one of my choices. Also, I want to mention that it is quiet, not silent.

But, I think in a larger home, it would be a lot quieter. This is the perfect dishwasher for a small kitchen. It is small, but holds a lot.

The silverware tray has divided compartments so that you can separate forks, spoons & knives. It's great for unloading silverware quickly.

I’ve owned a lot of dishwashers over the years and with other dishwashers I've had, every bit of food had to be rinsed off before putting in the dishwasher.

Not with this one - a mild rinsing to get extra pieces of food off the dishes - they come out sparkling clean. I highly recommend this dishwasher for kitchens with small spaces. It is well worth the money.

This one actually works better than the full size dishwashers that I used to own.

Takes up little space but can hold a whole days worth of dishes for my family of five.Always take the time to research any product you may be interested in purchasing.

It is a big purchase and should not be undertaken lightly by any means. This model in particularly is low cost and slim to fit most places.
