Posted .If water won’t drain from your washer, it could be caused by a drain hose that is kinked or improperly connected. Straighten the drain hose and make sure the washer is not sitting on it. Also ensure that the top of the drain outlet should be less than 8 ft above the floor. -- We also suggest checking out the “Not draining” and “Clothes too wet” troubleshooting sections on page 27 of the Owner’s Manual, which can be viewed at the bottom of the Features tab on the product page of the Best Buy website. -- If the issue persists, please reach out to us (GE Appliances) via private message on Facebook, X, or Instagram so that we may learn more about your situation. Make sure to include your full serial and model numbers, any service confirmation or case numbers you have, along with a copy of this review. Lauren@GEAppliances
