    I need to add the extra spin cycle to all loads or the clothes are too wet. Also, each time I use the fabric softener dispenser, there is fabric softener running down the agitator once the load is complete even though I am using the deep rinse as suggested.

    This washer looks good. However it is not user friendly. The fabric softener dispense does not evenly distribute the softener evenly.

    This was purchased to replace a 5 year old set from WP 3.5 ft size. While this GE is only 1 q.f. more, it does almost twice the size of load. It has a great spin which makes the drying time less. I like how I GET TO CONTROL THE WATER LEVEL. I can now wash my queen size bedding in 1 load. Its cycles make sense and it does not lock me out. It has A nice feature that allows me to pretreat clothes and sprays the water in a nice fan pattern. Now one thing I don't like is its rather finiky about its ballance with mixed loads., at times I have to stop it and re arrange the load. This usually happens when I do my bedding with a heavy blanket with light sheets in one load.. I really should wash seperatly but I jusst stop the washer and re-arrange it.. The agitator is a nice smooth surface on the bottom, compaired a paddel that snagged clothes

    Bought the set to replace a set of higher end Samsung that was literally falling apart and unusable at only 5 years old. Sick and tired of "all the bells and whistles" machines that just has more that goes wrong. Good old-school style washer. The water depth is adjustable wich is nice but the best part is the lid doesnt lock until the spin cycle. The machine IS LOUD compared to other machines, but I assume thats partially because its all metal and not worth knocking a star off. I had to get used to having an agitator again but overall it cleans better than my samsung did brand new.

    This machine is so far, the best I’ve ever had. It’s not as wide as my previous washing machines; making this a better fit in the space, alongside my dryer. Even without bleach, it gets my whites much cleaner. It’s very easy to use and well worth its price for the performance of getting your clothes so clean.

    This GE washing machine cleans my laundry very well compared to my old washing machine and it is very quiet. It is easy to use and the quality is outstanding! It even plays a cute tune before the machine starts washing. It is very efficient and uses just the right amount of water. I can’t say enough good things about this washing machine! I am so happy with this purchase. I hope it will last a long time. GE you’ve knocked this one out of the park!

    OMG it is wonderful to have a washing machine that doesn't freak out about the load balance and constantly empty and refill with water. PLUS having a washing machine that actually washes the clothes. No more endless cycles, no more detergent residue on the clothes, and wow does the spin cycle really get the water out of the clothes, requiring less dryer time. After 11 years with a "high efficiency, no agitator" nightmare, we are back in the real washing world to stay :) We are absolutely thrilled with the new GE washer with an agitator. The Cold Plus option is great, as are all the other options. And the basic knobs instead of keypad style are fantastic. It is a huge relief to know we can start a load and when we come back it will be done, and done well. We are looking forward to many years of washing happiness.

    Now that I have a chance to really use my new Washing Machine I really like it. It holds more than my old one. I like all the features and my cloths come out clean and with the extra spin cycle they don't need as much time in the dryer.

      It’s great to hear you’re enjoying your new washer and all its features! The larger capacity and extra spin cycle sound like a perfect combination for cleaner clothes and shorter drying times. Lauren@GEAppliances GE_Appliances

    As I said in my previous review of my dryer, we are extremely happy with our washer as well. Simple to use, large capacity, quiet when running. Fluffs very nicely if you don't take them out right away. Very happy with this purchase.

    Love it! I wanted an old school design with an agitator. My clothes are washing great. I love the soak and add power option. Cycles are under 40 minutes and express cycle is 15 minutes. I am super pleased with my purchase.

    Bought a condo a few years ago and the unit came with an older washer and dryer. The GE set that I bought from Best Buy has cleaned much better than the ones that came with the unit. In fact the new washer has been able to get out some stains on the clothes that were left after using the old machine. Very pleased with the larger GE washer and dryer. Only problem I experienced was the delivery took over three weeks because the first crew that brought them said they couldn’t use the old fittings and I needed to get a plumber to replace them. My HVAC guy said that there was nothing wrong with the old fittings and they work fine.

    We've tried all the fancy options and honestly they all do the same feature wise and they all clean the same. Which is barely, this washer while louder and has less features than the others, actually cleans your clothes not just swishes your clothes in soap soup and considers it "Done"

    Loooove this washer. I dont have to worry if my clothes are actually clean, doesnt take a million years to wash either. And i LOVE that i can have the lid open while it fills. It reminds me of the heavy duty dependability of old school washers with new features that i like from newer ones. Its so easy to us. Definitely my new favorite appliance
