America's Smartest Dishwasher Now with Steam Pre-wash
Deep Steam-Cleaning Benefits Lead to Second Generation of SmartDispense™ — the GE Profile™ SmartDispense™ II Dishwasher
LOUISVILLE, Kentucky — Steam pre-wash now adds even more cleaning power to the second generation of the GE Profile™ Dishwasher with SmartDispense™ technology — a dishwasher that already stores the contents of an entire 47-ounce bottle of liquid or gel detergent, dispensing based on water hardness, cycle selection, and soil level of dishes.
Incorporating steam into this advanced dishwashing system, GE's dishwasher now offers SmartDispense II technology with a DeepClean™ cycle. The program uses steam pre-wash to help rid dishes of difficult messes, such as eggs, peanut butter, and starchy foods like rice, potatoes and oatmeal. There is also a steam pre-wash cycle enhancement that aids in loosening tough soils and prepares dishes for the main wash. Steam pre-wash cycle enhancement can also be used with any cycle and is automatically selected with the DeepClean cycle.
The only dishwasher on the market with SmartDispense technology, this GE Profile product not only allows for dispensing detergent throughout the wash cycle, it is also paired with the BrilliantClean™ towerless wash system with CleanSensor™, allowing the dishwasher is able to sense details about every load, adjusting cycle time and water temperature to get dishes remarkably clean.
Smarter, and Now with Superior Style
Designers also took the opportunity to enhance the dishwasher's appearance and flexibility with new Smart Blue colored racking features and wash arm. Four-position rack adjustability and a 25 percent increase in thickness add a more robust feeling and flexibility to the racks. Available with a sleek front control panel and top controls that are elegantly hidden from view, the dishwasher is available in stainless steel, black or white finishes, or in a custom-panel-ready model.
Top-control models include PDWT580 and PDWT500 that come in stainless steel, black and white and a customizable version. Front-control version PDWF580 and PDWF500 also are available in stainless steel, black or white. Prices range from $1,299*–1549* for the stainless top-control model, and all models will be available February 2, 2009.
