A: When you turn the knob to Rinse and Spin, the “Extra Rinse” button illuminates. Press that Extra Rinse button to turn off the rinse feature and the machine will spin without adding extra water. Here’s the title of a YouTube video we (FixThisHouse channel) created to show how this is done: “GE UltraFresh washer: GE UltraFresh Vent washer - how to Spin setting only, clothes washer“ Hope that helps!
A: Yes, the instructions are included in the dryer installation manual. Also, both doors are reversible. The Geek Squad guy that did our install tried to tell me that they couldn't be, but after he left and I read the instructions, both doors can be flipped.
A: Hi - Thanks for reaching out to us regarding your new GE Washer Model # GFW850SSNWW. We are sorry to hear you are not happy with the SmartDispense option and have good news.

A: Turn the knob to the rinse and spin cycle. The extra rinse button should light up. Press that button before pressing start and it should turn off the rinse portion of the cycle.

Q: Can you use tide pods with this machine?
A: Yes. Toss them in with your clothes. But I prefer the liquid because it dispenses automatically and lets you know when to refill. Best washer I ever owned!
Q: Does this washer have drain line and filter to clean in front of the machine
A: Hello and thank you for your interest in our amazing new washer. We are happy to help. Model GFW850SSNWW does have a pump filter in the bottom front that can be cleaned as needed. The drain line is located in the rear of the machine as typical of most washers. Please let us know if you have any more questions. - John
A: Wait, doesn't this machine have a "more water" option (4th one down left side on selection panel)? These pics below are from the 4.8 cu.ft. Model at Lowe's.
