    Felt I needed to use the water level control on the first load. Not sure what the "auto" water level fill is trying to prove, but it's not enough water for my washing. Note: you can adjust the water level after the cycle has begun - nice. I would give it 5 stars, but it IS noisy. I like the glass lid. Simple controls that DON'T connect to the internet ! Huzzah ! Who wants to do their laundry from the office ? Unless maybe you could teach your dog to put the clothes into the machine.....

    I agree with other reviews in that the washer is quite loud during the wash cycle. Been using for few weeks now and it has only "spun out of balance" once. Love that I can control the water level. The light soil setting is long enough to get things clean. The only thing preventing me from giving 5 stars is the noise.

    Love it, switched back to the agitator as the prior Samsung without agitator rods broke and only 2 years old. I believe it is from large loads and balancing. So agitator it is and definitely found out the difference the expensive way.

    Full Tub Luxury

    I like the machices varied settings and the ability to open the lid during the cycles. I also like the ability to completely fill the tub with water. The only thing that I don't like is when the cycles are over and you open the machine, the power light stays on and you have to manually turn it off. Also, I would like a shorter spin time on the shortest cycle to conserve my power as I prefer to air dry my clothes for a while before I put them in the dryer. But overall I am enjoying my machine very much after the nightmare I had of my last machine (Whirlpool) not filling up all the way leaving clothes exposed and not cleaned

    Upgrade

    Very happy with our new washing machine. Upgraded from a very basic Amanda unit i originally bought for my 1st home at Sears. We've had the new unit for a month, which was delivered on my preferred delivery date (Sat). The Best buy delivery guys were prompt, courteous and got my unit installed quickly and efficiently. They hauled away my old unit, which still worked, but was (for me) much easier to have hauled away then having to worry about selling. The new unit has every setting needed to satisfy even the most discerning clothes washer...with operations and handling of different loads as intended. I kind of felt my previous unit didn't really execute the settings as stated on the dial. This one seems to follow the rules set by the exact setting style i choose....from delicates, to properly presoak to drying settings (spin cycles). It's not loud, but probably not quiet either if your washing mashine is inside the house on say a 2nd floor near bedrooms. Mine is is the garage off the kitchen and sound levels are non invasive and 100% fine. The digital displays and controls are attractive and easy to set & forget. The amount of clothes it handles is a nice change from my previous unit. The tub basin is large and the aggitator works as expected. Bottom line is this machine has been fantastic so far and my clothes have never been so clean and fresh compared to the old results with the Amanda unit. The price was really good for what you're getting here. Big thumbs up from me. Buy it

    The washer works fantastic! My previous washer was a GE and over 20 years old. I found this gem on Black Friday and it’s nice and simple to use and cleans my clothes much better than my old one. I am very happy with my purchase.

    Great Replacement or New Washer Option

    Old washing machine broke, leaked all over my floor. Some brands don’t have a drip tray. I needed to get a new one fast. It took a total of 2 days to go from ordered, to installed in my house. They even took the old one away for me. This works great, better than other higher end models.

    I've had this GE 4,5 cf washer for two months and so far, it works well. The only things I don't like about it are these: 1. It's height forces me to really stretch to reach down to the bottom of the tub to remove the last of the washed items. 2. The lid lock system prevents me from rinsing the soap and fabric softener measuring cups. Water won't start filling the tub until the lid is closed and locked. That should be an option for people who have children, not forced on everyone. (Yes I looked for a washer that didn't do that, but all that had the other features I wanted and good reputations had it.) Otherwise, it does a good job and I like being able to select the appropriate amount of friction, water, and spinning for the fabrics being cleaned. (But I miss my 32-year-old Lady Kenmore.)

    Love this washer and the fact that it has an agitator! Our 20 year old washer needed to be replaced and I spent time researching and reading reviews before finally deciding on this one. We've had this washer for 5 months now and we have not had a single issue. Laundry comes out clean every time with no spotting. It has a detergent and softener tray, and a place to pour bleach. It also has the traditional softener dispenser on top of the agitator (to use for deep fill rinse). Love that it has an auto setting that saves water, or you can choose the water level. The max setting fills the tub with enough water to wash bedding and towels (it does at times make noise to balance heavy loads.) We're able to wash large loads easily. It's not the quietest washer, but we got used to it and we don't really notice it anymore.

    I’m extremely impressed with the GE 4.5 Cu. Ft. Top Load Washer. From the very first load, I could tell this machine was designed with convenience and performance in mind. The Water Level Control and Deep Fill options are fantastic — they give me the flexibility to handle everything from small daily loads to bulky bedding without any issues. The Quick Wash cycle has been a huge time-saver, delivering clean clothes fast without compromising quality. I also love the glass lid, which lets me easily check on the wash without interrupting the cycle. It runs surprisingly quiet, has a sleek White with Matte Black finish that looks great in my laundry room, and overall feels solid and well-built. For the price and features, this washer is an incredible value. I’m very happy with my purchase and would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable, efficient top-load washer!

    After extensive internet search this seemed to be what I was looking for. On display at Home Depot so I could see and touch so I purchased it there. Sales associates were helpful in answering questions and arranging delivery. Website states machine is 46" high which would not have worked for my space, but it actually measures 44 at highest point in back so it worked. LOVE THIS MACHINE. Like the older styles, it allows you to open the lid to add clothes or laundry soap and even change the water level during cycle. It just fills and continues the wash cycle. Have found even with full load of towels do not need any more water than "high". Will probably never use "maxiumum". Normal spin cycle wrings out towels nicely. But there are more choices if needed. Have done a dozen wash cycles and very pleased. Cute little tune plays to signal cycle end. Oh, and the lid with the see through window is made of a plastic type product, so I'll never have a rusted lid again like my old metal lid!! Would buy again.
