We got this unit after out GR Profile melted all the dishes for a 3rd time the model PDW9980n. So far here is what I found
It's smaller inside
No disposal Big let down
Hard to figure out how they want you to mount it
Louder that the GE By alot but is super quiet
I do have to I did love the 9980n GE once they can figure the heating element problem ( it stays on and melts everything).
The GE had an automatic soap dispenser. The GE was super quiet and well built.
That being said I think the Bosch overall is better built it had a metal case around the tub nice touch! The base is made out of a solid chunk of injected plastic with water and electric connections right on the bottom front much better to work on than the GE.
My big let down was that their was no soft food disposal...come on it's you're top of the line model. Some could argue the simpler the better less to go wrong...put it in. I don't want to have to empty or remember to empty ta basket.
I like the look and the controls clean and neat. The door closes nicely and it cleans very well. It is quiet and I do like the little red light that shines in the floor and goes off when it's done....nice. I like that the door 3/4 of the way closed the door shut you have to push the door to start the wash. I like that the heating is not in the tub it uses convection to dry the dishes.
With the limited time with this unit so far not bad. We'll have to see how well it does at spaghetti night with the pots that I will let sit out overnight to see how well it cleans.
