Anyone else have trouble with these GE dishwashing machines?

Mine cleans dishes well enough, but the gaskets leak easier than any other dishwasher I've ever had. I replaced the gaskets a few months ago, but if a little bit of debris builds up then it's leaking again. Also, the racks are badly corroded, but the machine is only maybe five years old. Anyway, it's just kind of funny that my aunt is coming over tomorrow and the last time she was here she noticed the dishwasher was leaking.

Sorry, can’t say I have any experience with them.

I’ve had really good luck with Bosch dishwashers. Maybe just random luck but they seem to do well.

Second you on Bosch. Only dishwasher that I've had no problems with, and even plastic caught in the drain tube was easily diagnosed and removed, which has been the only problem I've had with it. I'd rather get abused Bosch than a new dishwasher of any other brand, really

When we bought our house it had a Bosch dishwasher. It started leaking after it was just 3 years old. The leak started where the plastic bottom piece joins the aluminium top piece. The rubber gasket became dirty and water was able to escape. Every brand has these types of cheap dishwasher. So next time you buy a dishwasher pick a more expensive model that has a 'unibody' design.
