Q: QuestionCan I lift the lid to add detergent while its filling? How long are the cycles? I like old school machines and this is confusing with all the cycles!! Laundry isn't all that complicated, really.

Asked 2 years ago by Devo.

• A:Answer I am the same way! I always added my detergent to the water when my old machine was filling. I hated having to by a new machine. This washer has a detergent dispenser that releases the detergent while it's filling with water which I've found works well. A lot of new top load machines don't have that which means you have to put detergent on dry clothes - weird! This machine allows you to pause any time so you could add the detergent at that point. The lid only locks during the "sensing" cycle which I don't use (I like to select how much water to fill the tub) and during the spin cycle. This was the closest machine I could find with the features of the old style washers. Hope this helps.

Q: QuestionWhen using the 'towels' option I always need to pause the cycle and reset the towels. I put them in the tub evenly, but after it washes and starts spinning to drain, the towels have been moved around. The tub is way off balance. How can I adjust it?

Q: QuestionDoes this washer drain water after you pause to add stuff to it? Some GE Profile washer does that which is a huge waste of water and detergent.

Asked 2 years ago by Researcher.

Q: QuestionThe GE - 4.5 cu ft Top Load Washer with Water Level Control, Deep Fill, Quick Wash, and Glass Lid is VERY loud, especially during agitation. It sounds like some scifi robot walking around while agitating. Is this normal?

Asked 2 years ago by Tim.

• A:Answer Mine is quiet too but once in awhile, it gets very loud, banging noise and it only happens when I’m doing heavy blankets. I realized it happens when it’s trying to balance the load (because of the agitator). So it’s important to load laundry evenly and with heavy beddings especially, you have to wrap the blanket around the agitator evenly. Once I did that, I don’t hear the banging noise anymore.

Q: QuestionDoes the top glass lid close slowly or just slams down hard?

Asked 1 year ago by Kito.

• A: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.

Q: 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.

• A: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!)
