We've had this washer three weeks now and it's been great thus far. It took us about a month of researching, reading reviews, and asking friends about the best front load washers. What we like about this GE washer is the Microban ventilation feature which helps to reduce mold and odor. After each load, the washer reminds you to vent the system and so far, so good. Other features we love is the automatic detergent dispenser, Wifi integration, and its options. It is easy to use, holds a lot of laundry, and is minimal in noise. We've enjoyed it and hopefully it will remain that way.

We love it. So far it's been a good washer and dryer set. My wife likes the smart features that give her notices on her phone when a load is done. It also updates the software through our wifi if necessary and keeps track of your usage. We also like the automatic soap dispenser. It keeps you from using too much and then you only fill it once in a while which helps eliminate spills and makes doing the laundry faster. Plus, you can set it to use more or less soap. I put it to "less" and the wife has not complained. In fact, with our old LG washer, she used to complain about it not putting enough water because she would smell soap on the clothes after a wash. No complaints with this one and the clothes are clean. Another thing my wife used to complain about with our old washer was it would smell. That's a common complaint with front end washers. But this one has a vent system that airs out the drum after use. It can also be set to do this after a wash, spinning slowly while circulating air through the drum until you come and take out the clothes. For these features, which aren't on other brands, we bought this set and are happy. They weren't rated as high as some other brands on Consumer Reports, but after reading the actual 1 star reviews we decided that we would go with these. The last remark is the large capacity drum. You can wash sleeping bags, comforters, and large loads. Since my wife and I have an empty nest at this time, some reviews stated that the didn't need such a large washer. But since it automatically adjusts the soap and water, we haven't had an issue with that. I tell my wife to let the clothes build up and wash less often.

Purchased and delivered 1 month ago and would not hesitate to highly recommend this washer to any and everyone that is looking for a magnificent machine. Large capacity handles my bedspreads & comforters with ease....No More Laundromats !! Very quiet , easy to choose and operate cycles. Best thing is it does not hold that musty smelly odor like the old one did. Smells clean and fresh as long as you allow it to dry out after finishing your laundry.....leave door and detergent slot open over night to dry outvand then you can close it without worrying about the smells. To top it all off.... It's Beautiful !!
