Description:
The GE GDT696SSFSS will probably not hold the most number of dishes, as suggested by its 12 place settings, which is below the usual-average of 14, while it is equipped with an Energy Saver wash program, which, however, can only be used on lightly soiled dishes that have been pre-soaked. Besides, it also labels its quick-wash program as "Speed", which is not necessarily the speediest in our books, as it takes a rather-long 80 minutes to complete.
