I purchased a GE Adora (the Home Depot brand) dishwasher about a year ago and immediately began having problems with it. It simply won't clean the dishes. Even simple things like if you don't rinse out your coffee cup before you put it into the dishwasher. I've had service out here 4 times and they were always really nice, on time and felt bad about it but they haven't ever fixed it. I paid almost $500 for a machine that they won't take back and now I have to replace. Why can I return almost anything I buy but not this? DO NOT BUY ADORA products! Is there any way to make them take this back and give me my money back?

2018 and GE is still hustling people with this incompetent waste of time, space and money, poor excuse for a machine. I too always considered GE a name you could trust, but the Adora has eroded all of mine. From the beginning it gave problems with cleaning the dishes... every blue moon it does, but most times it does not and i have to wash the dishes by hand. I've tried every combination of settings but still am left with dirty dishes and stuck on white stuff. It also destroys any plastic dish I put in there. Ill try the ideas listed here but what a piece of s#!t. Im stuck with it because of the beautiful finish that matches the fridge, stove & microwave (which I'm sure they set up that way on purpose), but never again will I buy GE!

Just found out that there is water dripping in basement from our dishwasher. We bought an Adora about two years ago and noticed that the dishes were not coming out clean right from the start. We were using the pods but then changed to liquid with no change. Then we thought it might be our hard water but after reading these reviews, I see that it's more likely the dishwasher. Now I have water dripping somewhere from under the machine and don't know why or how. Very disappointed in this dishwasher on all levels and won't buy another one. I feel for all of you and we should expect better from a company like GE, but I guess they will keep turning out the same garbage and rebrand it for the next crop of suckers. Sad to see the lack of integrity in an American company who's only wish is to please the share holders and not the customer!

I have been struggling with the performance of the Adora dishwasher since I purchased it about two years ago and, llike what I am reading in these reviews, requested service. Professional repairmen could find no issues with the machine and suggested a change in cleanser from liquid to pods which did not make a difference. This dishwasher is ineffective and simply does not clean the dishes properly. I am extremely disappointed in this appliance.
