Do I need to be on extra spin to get reasonably dry clothes? Items are still very wet after spin dry. Much wetter than I recall with my other washing machines.

No. They are dried enough at the regular setting. If you have very heavy/thick clothes/comforter etc, then maybe, you can use it at that extra, if needed.

I find things are coming out dryer with the "regular" spin setting used with whites, colors, jeans, and sheets/towels than with our previous washer (non GE). Just be ready for the jet airplane take off noise. It's an ultra-high-speed fast spin.

Hello Dodie - this is Nancy at GE and I am happy to help you. If your clothes are still very wet after a spin dry, then we recommend trying the extended spin, power rinse, or second rinse and extended spin to see if this helps. If the washer is experiencing a suds lock during the spin cycle due to too much detergent in a soft water situation, then the washer cannot spin at the maximum spin speed. If you believe that a suds lock may be occurring, then we recommend cutting back on detergent to see if this helps. Thanks for checking with us!
