Used to love GE Products
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased the washing machine on August 11. It broke on September 12. It wont spin the water out. The earliest GE can get a repair tech to fix it the 17th.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend LOUD!!
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This washing machine is loud. Much louder than the one it is replacing. I have had company downstairs and they have remarked on how loud it is. I had someone come out today to look at my 5 month old washer and he said it’s normal. If you’re looking for a quiet washing machine, this is not the one for you.

Nothing but issues with this washer
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The machine constantly has the load become unbalanced regardless of load size, water level cycle setting, or setting for soil level or spin level and the basket will bang around aggressively against the inside frame of the unit. We are constantly having to pause the load on spin cycle, redistribute the clothing and have even had to hand ring items out that were still soaked with water.

Posted .We're glad you reached out. Please make sure the washer is properly level with all four legs firmly on the floor. If this doesn't prove helpful, we recommend scheduling a service appointment for one of our qualified technicians to assess your unit.

I would recommend this to a friendDisappointed and Disgusted
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased a washer and dryer and the delivery guys who were very honest with me admitted to damaging the washer while unloading. He took photos and sent them to Best Buy. I was offered two options 1. To keep the damage one until they replaced it or take a small percentage off the price. I opted for option 1. Long story short Best Buy did NOT honor either option so I’m paying for a damaged washer that I didn’t damage.

Very poor quality for a GE product!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.DO NOT PURCHASE! The machine looks great but washes clothes poorly. They remain smelly and stained. You cansee the clothes stay in their same spot as they wash. The deep fill doesn’t actaully fill the tub. Do not waste your money. BEST BUY switched the machone out without issues.

Install Crew Terrible
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Never had a chance to use it. Best Buy installation crew was extremely unprofessional, to the point I had them take the machine back and bought the same one from Home Depot for a cheaper price and the delivery and installation went flawless.

Noisy
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was noisy... Went back to get another brand....
I would recommend this to a friendIt's cheap but don't buy it.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This washing machine stops if the clothes inside are not balanced. It's stupldly difficult to clean anything bulky beacause it eventually gets more fabric on one side and then stops. Don't buy it.

GE Top Load Washer
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This unit was very loud. The water levels were not automatic and the soap and lint remained on the clothing after the rinse was complete. It also did not thoroughly rinse so the clothes were heavy with too much moisture.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from GE Answers
Posted .We appreciate you letting us know your experience with this washer. There are sounds you can expect to hear from your unit. We recommend viewing the article on our GE Appliances website called "Top Load Washer - Normal Sounds" to get a better idea of what to expect. If there is detergent left on your clothes, please ensure that you're using the correct amount of detergent. Too much detergent can cause residue to be left behind. You can also run a "Rinse and Drain" cycle to ensure that your clothes get spun out fully. If these tips do not help, please schedule service by calling 833-426-3393 so our technicians can fully investigate. -Kacie@GEAppliances
