Now that you know the difference between open vs. closed loop and between horizontal vs. vertical bowl-lift models, it’s time to answer your original question: What are the differences between 5qt bowl-lift models?
The three most popular 5qt bowl-lift models are GE’s GSF25JFUWW, Maytag’s MHWE5755WEM and Bosch’s SHE43C05UC.
GE’s GSF25JFUWW is one of GE’s more popular dishwashers for small kitchens looking for a space saving design with a compatible countertop dishwasher. Conveniently, GE also created a dishwasher attachment that attaches to the bottom of the GSF25JFUWW. (The GSF25JFUWW can even be used in high-efficiency mode, which means it uses less water and electricity.)
Maytag’s MHWE5755WEM is one of Maytag’s best dishwashers for medium to large kitchens looking for features such as a self-cleaning feature and an optional upper rack. While Maytag didn’t create its own stand up upper rack like with GE’s GSF25JFUWW, its stand up upper rack comes with a slide out basket that can be easily adjusted to accommodate different sized dishes.
Bosch’s SHE43C05UC is one of Bosch’s best dishwashers for consumers who are looking for a 5qt bowl-lift model with an extra large capacity. Bosch’s SHE43C05UC is 19 inches tall, which makes it a great choice for very tall kitchens.
The main difference between the GE GSF25JFUWW, Maytag MHWE5755WEM and Bosch SHE43C05UC is their respective features. The GE GSF25JFUWW offers a dishwasher attachment that allows your cookware to be put into the dishwasher while still on the stove top.
The Maytag MHWE5755WEM comes with a stainless steel tub, upper rack and internal detergent dispenser to assist in cleaning your dishes. The Bosch SHE43C05UC has an integrated upper rack that provides additional storage. The GE GSF25JFUWW and the Bosch SHE43C05UC have the same capacity of 5 quarts, but their other features are different.
Higher capacity models such as the GE GSF25JFUWW increase water consumption and electricity consumption by approximately 10% or more. Higher cost models such as the GE GSF25JFUWW also increase your dishwasher’s main electrical components, which could increase its overall lifetime costs by as much as 20%.

When comparing dishwashers, it is also important to consider the estimated life of the dishwasher itself. High-efficiency dishwashers that run on a high volume of water and electricity, such as GE’s GSF25JFUWW and Bosch’s SHE43C05UC, last longer than their less energy efficient counterparts such as Maytag’s MHWE5755WEM.
A dishwasher can be a large investment such as GE’s GSF25JFUWW, which is approximately $1,350 more than Maytag’s MHWE5755WEM. We recommend that you carefully consider the features of a dishwasher and the longevity of the product before purchasing your dishwasher.
