Kevin W Rochester , MA January 20, 2016 $1000 dishwasher didn't clean dishes Our GE was installed about 8 years ago and was AWESOME for much of its early life. However, progressively its cleaning ability diminished. By replacing all the spray arms (clogged with debris), filters, drain hose, and sump...this dishwasher cleans like it did when it was new! Cost was around $100 (also replaced a wheel and the silverware basket) and labor was relatively simple. And to think...my mother-in-law said, "Wouldn't it just be easier to buy a new one?!?".

Peter G Niceville , FL October 18, 2016 The dishwasher was severely covered with calcium and lime the glassware and silverware were coming out with a lot of spotting I used lime away, vinegar, finish washer cleaner none of them worked. Finally just use Brillo on the entire cabinet interior. It came out very clean. Only needed very light scrubbing.

Chris L Gorham , ME March 14, 2017 Appliance: General Electric Dishwasher PDW9280J00SS Spray arms and bearings were worn screens were clogged and pump connectors were deteriorated and leaking I replaced the upper and mid spray arms and bearings, removed filters and screens and cleaned everything. Pulled pump and replaced the connector and the collection sump. Repair took about 3 hours and went very smoothly thanks to the AppliancePros video! I'm on the east coast so I could not believe it when the parts arrived less than 24 hours after I placed the order! Prices were great too . . . I'm a customer for life and my dishwasher cleans the dishes like new now!

Margaret O University Heights , OH November 08, 2014 Dishes were not getting clean; i noticed that the middle spray arm was not working; but also other spray arms appeared to have residue in the irrigation holes I did an internet search - found your site explaining how to fix. I purchased the upper, middle, and lower spray arms - It took about 15 minutes total. Very very easy. No more dirty dishes!
