“Can you tell me if this GE GTW685BSLWS washer fills from the top or the bottom of the tub and how is the detergent dispensed from the little tray? Can you have the top open while it is filling the tub at the start of the cycle to load the clothes? Thanks”

Hi CJH58- The washer fills from the top of the basket. Each of the dispensers is timed to release at the right time during the wash cycle. Each reservoir is flushed with water to pre-dilute the product before adding it to the washer. This flushing action removes all product to help keep the compartment clean and free flowing. The washer features Automatic Load Sensing (Precise Fill). This determines the correct agitate profile, agitate duration and amount of water suited to the size and type of load placed in the washer. The washer will not start the wash cycle or fill with water if the lid is open. When the lid is closed the machine is able to begin filling with water in order to sense the load size. Unless using Bulky Items cycle washer will not start with lid open. It will also fill with the lid open when using PreciseFill, but only once load-sensing is complete and the lid unlocks. Starting in 2015, top-load washers feature a lid lock that engages when the washer is either load-sensing before and during fill, or when it is spinning above 50 RPM. You cannot set the washer to lock for the entire cycle. Models with Precise Fill (load sensing) will lock during the load sensing period and during the spin cycle. Models without Precise Fill only lock during the spin cycle. Matching Dryer: Electric GTD65EBSJWS/Gas GTD65GBSJWS. Keep in touch! SUEatGEA
