Q: Does the door open from left to right? or right to left?
A: Hi-this is Sue from GE Appliances. We are excited to hear of your interest! Front-load washers have the hinge on the left side of the door and open to the left only. They do not have reversible doors because of the electronics involved with the door lock mechanism. Thanks for checking with us!
A: Hi SmileyFish, I am happy to help. Pedestal SBSD227FWW will work with model GFWS1700HWW. We appreciate you checking with us. Lisa from GE Appliances.
A: Hello Sue - this is Nancy at GE Appliances and I am happy to help you. Our front-load washers are quiet. However, you may hear some vibration when the unit is going into the 1300 RPM spin. This would be considered normal. You can install this unit on a pedestal Part #SBSD137HWW which is sold separately. When the washer is installed, the floor must be a hard level surface with a maximum slope of 1/2” per foot (1.27 cm per 30 cm). To make sure the washer does not vibrate or move, you may have to reinforce the floor. I hope this helps! Thanks for checking with us!
Q: We have Washer WBVH6240FWW we want to buy GFWS1700HWW can we use same support ?
A: Hi Leila- This is Sue at GE Appliances. We appreciate your loyalty! Yes, the pedestal accessory is compatible with the new model GFWS1700HWW. Thanks for checking with us!
A: Hi DrEric- This is Sue at GE Appliances. We suggest Optional Pedestal Accessory SBSD137HWW (Sold Separately). Samsung WE357A0W has not been tested or approved for use with our washers. Thanks for checking with us!
