This GE washer was a replacement for a older GE so wanted about the same basic features. Washer looks way more streamlined without all the square edges of the old one. Performance is about the same with having the usual water and temperature controls. Steel drum is a nice upgrade and overall a good value for a basic non-HE washer.

We're very pleased with this washer! It's very quiet and it spins out almost all the water from the load, making the dryer work faster and better!
No complaints at all!!!

You couldn't make a washing machine sound any more ridiculous, I have to believe the noise is by design. Possibly as a way to let you know it's working hard to scrub the dirt out. Ridiculous, like buying a muscle car that intentionally leaves off the muffler. BestBuy did a solid job of delivering and installing. The appliance is attractive and easy to use. However the noise it makes is a deal breaker. I wish I had simply searched for the model on youtube, various appliance vendors have full length videos (yes videos of a washing machine going through a cycle the full 45 minutes - who knew) of these machines and the noise is obvious. I've owned it for a week and have washed a lighter queen sized duvet as well as jackets and heavy pants and the washing is solid.

A repair man told me that I was smart to buy this old school washer because all those extra bells and whistles just means extra stuff that can break down. I just bought it because it had an agitator and the new ones don't lol. Had it since March with no issues. Solid purchase.

My only complaint is now I need a bigger dryer! This is quiet and works well. My last similar washing machine was a GE and died after 7 years. I hope this one lasts longer, but given the repair costs for washing machines, it was a better deal to buy a new one since the repair company they only last about 7 years. I am the laundry person for a family with kids, so the extra capacity is great.

Overall does exactly what i want a washing machine to do. It was one of the cheaper no frills models but it feels sturdy and has all the features you would need in a washer. My only complaint is that the noise it makes while in a cycle is different than i'm used to. Instead of a low pitched hum it's more of a higher pitched pulsing sound. Kind of annoying when you're not used to it.

This is a second set of washer and dryer I purchased, the second being a gift to someone,
So this review is based on my initial purchase, the second set hasn’t had any issues.
Washer: washes clothes great, has a lot of great options and settings in the menu, but the lock mechanism isn’t always the best. Have had issues with this and the machine being locked not allowing me to get clothes.. had to get it changed and haven’t had any issues since. Dryer: gets the job done. Highly recommend.

My old washer was very old so I don't know how this compares to other new washers, but I really like it. The major drawback for me is the amount of noise it makes, this thing is loud! It's part of my ensuite and I can't have it running when anyone is trying to sleep. But the all-encompassing basket helps protect my clothes and it does the things a washer should!

Huge fan! I’m not a front end loader fan. This is such an efficient machine with tons of options. Very happy with the purchase and the delivery service. Highly recommend. We are a family of 6 and it is perfect for our size of loads.

It's a great size and I like that it measures for what water is needed. I didn't give it 5 stars because it is very loud when switching cycles.

I really like this washer. I love that it has an agitator and a setting for precise fill (senses amount of water needed) in addition to low, medium, high and max water settings. I usually use precise fill, regular load and my wash is done in no time. I would advise loading washer according to directions to avoid imbalance.
