QuestionDoes the top glass lid close slowly or just slams down hard?
Asked 2 years ago by Kito.
- Answer I did the same (went to the store to try it out) and it does slam after it reaches about half way down. IDK why someone said that it doesn't slam down because it does.

QuestionHave washed several loads with new washer. Softener is not going in. Cup is still full when the cycle completes. Don't see anything in the trouble shooting section of the manual that applies. Any ideas?
Asked 2 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Make sure the deep rinse is on. When you use softener, you have to have the deep rinse on.

QuestionThere’s a power button and a start button. Do you hit power each time you start and each time your wash is finished? For the sound do you have to set that initially?
Asked 2 years ago by Luci.
- Answer I hope you've received an answer by now, but... the Power button lights up as soon as I open the lid. So you don't need to press it again before you press the Start button. My Power button does not go dark when I close the lid after removing the clothing, so I press it again to make sure it's off. (I don't want any appliance drawing energy, running up my electricity bill, when it's not in use!)

QuestionIs there a rinse only cycle? And during rinse cycle, does the washer fill or is it just a spray rinse?
Asked 2 years ago by DrSandy.
- Answer Yes. If you click deep rinse, and use the drain and spin cycle. It will fill. If you just drain and spin without deep rinse, it will spray a couple short sprays and then drain and spin.

QuestionIs agitator gentle with clothes
Asked 1 year ago by girl.
- Answer Yes, the agitator is gentle on clothes based on the cycle selected. This unit offers a delicate cycle. The delicate cycle, utilizes a unique “tri-pulse” extra gentle agitate profile and a low spin speed to provide special care to delicate fabrics. It's recommended to place small or ultra delicate items in mesh bags before washing.

QuestionTo confirm, this GE 4.5 cu ft washer only does spray rinse if Option is selected to None. And it will do spray rinse (count as 1st rinse) & fill rinse (count as 2nd rinse) if Option is selected to Extra Rinse, correct? Is there a way to do 2 fill rinses?
Asked 1 year ago by Leo.
- Answer It is a "spray rinse" if neither the Extra Rinse or Deep Rinse options are selected. If you want what is equal to two full rinses, you must select the Extra Rinse and Deep Rinse options. Both options can be used in the same cycle. -Don@GEAppliances

QuestionHas anyone else who purchased and used this machine seen a huge increase in their water bill? This is the only thing I can think of that is causing our water usage to quadruple.
Asked 1 year ago by CaliMom.
- Answer No, but I live in an apartment and don’t pay for water. When I had my home this happened to me and it turned out to be a leak by the main water line going to the street, you might check that.
