You do not want an 18 inch wide machine unless you absolutely cannot fit in anything else in which case you apply the rule that ALMOST any dishwsher is better than no dishwasher. Go look in a dishwasher. A 24 inch machine is square so the wash arm reaches the dimentions of the tank and racks equally. An 18" wide machine is still 24 inches deep, so you have more than 3 inches at the front of the rack and at the back of the rack that do not have the end of the wash arm passing underneath them. If you are thinking uneven washing performance, you have won the prize for the correct answer as to why you don't want an 18" wide dishwasher.

GE's GLC4400 is the one I highly recommend.It is identical to the GSD4400 I owned and adored back when I lived in Florida.I never pre rinse and never rewashed anything. It was quiet too. The shown above in the first photo has a totally different tower type of wash system than this model which has three(3) different spray arms. A small one on its roof and two full,independent beneath each of the racks.Dishes,silverware,pots,pans,china and crystal all come out sparkling ready to use again.I also recommend Finish tablets and Finish (Jet Dry) rinse aid.Good luck!!

news flash......

Home depot has the GLC4400RWW on line @ homedepot.com on sale for $494.10.
