Description:
This model has a slate-finished variant (GDT590SMJES), a rather-rare exterior that veers away from the more-commonly-seen stainless-steel or plastic finishes sported by most dishwashers, while it shows off a single-rack-cleaning Wash Zones feature, which lets you choose the particular rack you want to wash (using any cycle or option available to a regular wash). To wrap it up, it attempts to dislodge stuck-on messes using its Steam PreWash option, a feature that deviates from the conventional water spray jets used by most dishwashers for pre-rinsing.
Also known as: GE GDT590SMJES, GE GDT590SGJWW, GE GDT590SGJBB.
