The device is energy star qualified and energy guide certified; meaning in the long run it will save users money on bills and energy usage; it is designed to use less water to clean than more conventional dishwashing units. Full electronic controls are mounted upon the GLD4960P front panel complete with 4 cycles and 5 different settings; this enables users the choice of many different washing cycles. The GLD4960P also features a giant interior tub with what GE claims to be "maximum racking capacity", the unit can wash up to 15 dirty place (meal) settings at once and still has room left for large pans and tall items. The GE GLD4960P dishwashing unit includes additional features such as a patented 6 level BrilliantClean towerless wash system, 100% triple water filtration support, a Quietpower technology motor for more silent operation, dual pumps and motors with a drain hose, 3 direct feed wash arms (lower, middle and upper), a set of fold down tines in the upper rack, and two separate washing racks (upper and lower).
