I am 5'1 and I found if I got a pair of salad forks . YOu know the ones that you use like scissors ( the best way I can explain it) you can use them to get the cloths out of the bottom. I need to do that as I am so short. Hope this helps you.

I’m also 5’2” and although I don’t need a step stool to remove the items from the washer, I do however, have to get on my toes to reach the bottom. 
The depth of the washer is 27”

It depends on your arm length. I'm 5'3" but take a 34" inch inseam in jeans so it depends.

The front side of the machine measures 37.5 inches.

When I measure from the bottom of the tub to the top, it's only 24" inches deep.

I made a diagram to help you to envision what I'm referring to. I hope it's helpful to you.

*my previous washer was 3.5 cu. ft and the reach was 23". This washer is 4.6 cu. ft and 24" reach to the tub.

(A 5.3 cu. ft washer has a reach of 28" )

PS. This machine is AWESOME.

Hi - we're more than happy to assist with this concern! The washer's height from the bottom to the lid (when it's closed) is 37 1/2" or about 3'1". We wouldn't be able to determine if you need a stool just based on your height, so we strongly suggest visiting your local Best Buy and using a display model for reference. -- We hope this was insightful. Have a great day. - Pablo@GEA
