Hi newwasher- Thanks for viewing GE! Top-loading and front-loading GE Appliance washers with the HE label are defined as washers that use low-water levels in wash and rinse cycles. Some GE Appliance washer models have the "HE" label on the control panel and other models do not. However, GE Appliances recommends HE (High Efficiency) detergent be used in all of our washers (past and present models) for optimum wash performance. HE detergent works best with the lower water levels used in all modern washing machines and cleans just as well as standard detergents regardless of the machine type or age. GE® GTW485ASJWS is ENERGY STAR® qualified- Meets or exceeds federal guidelines for energy efficiency for year-round energy and money savings. You'll love the DEEP FILL option- Customize your water-fill levels with just the touch of a button. Add a little extra or fill the tub to wash the way you want.

We hope you'll enjoy these features as much as we do. The matching dryer is GE® 7.2 cu. ft. capacity electric dryer with HE Sensor Dry GTD45EASJWS (GTD45GASJWS Gas). Keep in touch! SUEatGEA
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The best answer I can give is, this machine uses less energy also it only uses enough water for the amount of clothes in the tub. Saves on water and electric. I hope this helps.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.High efficiency machines use special soap and very little water. This washer has a deep fill function which is absolutely necessary.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The High Efficiency (HE) uses less soap, water, and electricity. It does it better with less wear and tear on the washer, the clothes, and the environment. I didn't think it would when I bought it but I soon found that it does really do that. I found that I can wash bigger loads and get them cleaner than I could with my old regular washer.
