Q: If you do not have a drain and spin what do you use to when you need this feature? The whole idea is to get rid of excess water so I wouldn't want to rinse and spin. Thanks

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!

Q: Are these units stackable?

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.

Q: We currently have a smart dispense and I do not like it. I like everything else about this machine, and was wondering if the smart dispense can be bypassed.

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. If it is desired to manually add detergent for a load, that detergent will need to be added directly to the basket, and the SMART DISPENSE set to off for that particular load. The smart dispense feature can be disabled by pressing the SMART DISPENSE pad until off is selected. For reference and more details regarding this feature, please view page 12 of the Use and Care Guide here: https://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=49-3000217-2.pdf - We're glad to have you in the family and hope this is helpful. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us. If you have any additional questions, we are also happy to help at GEAppliances.com. Keep in touch! Sue

Q: How do you set this machine to "SPIN" only cycle? I washed bedding but the sheets were still too wet when the machine finished. It has a "RINSE & SPIN" but his is not what I am looking for.

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 keep the door closed between washings on this machine?

A: Hi Carol - Thanks for considering GE Model # GFW850SPNDG! Yes, this model has the first and only UltraFresh Vent System with OdorBlock™ that eliminates excess moisture to help prevent odors ensuring your washer stays fresh and clean. You can shut the door without worrying about bad odors. Play Video: https://www.youtube.com/embed/sNaNh8MC_3M?rel=0 - And, MICROBAN® ANTIMICROBIAL TECHNOLOGY is built into components delivering protection that lives on load after load. We formed an exclusive partnership with Microban, the global leader in antimicrobial and odor-control technologies, to create the first washer gasket, dispenser, and pump with Microban technology to help prevent the growth of odor-causing bacteria.

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
