A:AnswerHello John,
Thanks for reaching out. Great question. An older pedestal will not fit this model. The only pedestal that is made for this washer is model GFP1528SNWW. We do hope this helps. Best wishes. Mike@GEA
A:AnswerHello Faridi,

A:AnswerHi there, thanks for reaching out! If you're needing a drain pan for this unit, you can take a look at either of these part numbers: PM7X2 and PM7X3. We hope that this helps! Stay safe. -Michael
A:AnswerHi Stuart. No, the pedestals are NOT included. However, they are storage units. The cost is approximately $279 , a bit expensive!! This unit 5.0 is quite large. Unless you have a significant size laundry room, I’d forgo the pedestals.
A:AnswerHey there,
Thank you so much for reaching out. We'll be happy to answer your question! PowerSteam refreshes small loads and dewrinkles larger loads with the use of a water injection system.
This feature adds steam into the washer before the wash cycle begins to assist with loosening stains on the following cycles:
Normal,
Whites,
Towels,
Bulky Bedding,
Sanitize+Allergen,
Power Clean. Let us know if you need anything. All the best! Mike@GEA
A:AnswerHello Country - Thank you for your interest in this amazing washer. All laundry products are designed here at GE Appliances' headquarters in Louisville, Kentucky. The new dryer is made here in Louisville, and the new front load washer is made at a Haier plant in China. Keep in touch! - JB
A:AnswerHi EML - Thanks for considering GE Model # GFW850SSNWW! We have good news. The wash cycle can be paused after starting to allow for extra items to be added. Press Start/Pause and wait until the door is unlatched. The washer may
take up to 30 seconds to unlock the door after pressing Start/Pause, depending on the machine conditions. Do not try to force open the door when it is locked. After the door unlocks, open gently. Add items, close the door and press
Start/Pause to restart. Also, if it is desired to manually add detergent for a load, that detergent will need to be added directly to the basket, and the SMART DISPENSE set to off for that particular load. The smart dispense feature can be disabled by pressing the SMART DISPENSE pad until off is selected.

A:AnswerHello DH - Thank you for reaching out about our amazing new washer. The cycle times vary greatly depending on the chosen settings. The quick wash typically last about 35 minutes or a cycle with all the bells and whistles, like Sanitize, can take over 2 hours. A typical normal wash will take anywhere from 50 to 70 minutes.

A:AnswerI'lm not sure if this will help you.... I have the Diamond Gray and the settings are a light gray and can be easily seen. I'lm sure it is that way on all of the different colors since the settings panel would be the same part on all of the machines and the different colors would just be the outer shell.
