Lasted less than 2 years
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have owned this washer for 22 months and it has started leaking. We will get it fixed but for what this costs it should last twice that long before any repair is needed. This is the typical overpriced throw away junk you get in most appliances now days. The washer was fine till the leak started so that is why i gave it two stars...otherwise it would have been one.

Much improved door gasket
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The GE washer is a great upgrade from our last washer. The front door gasket is much improved. Fast, efficient and easy to operate from a not-too-complicated technology standpoint. And it looks very stylish as well.

Stress free purchase
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Clothes seem clean. Was able to do a blanket without unbalancing. Have used it for less than a month. Delivery and installation went very well, and salesman's help regarding delivery added to less stress on delivery date.

Long delivery

Broke after 6 months
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.GE products are awful just avoid them ive had several including a GE cafe fridge be deemed “ non fixable” within a year of owning and this is another failed product including a GE profile dishwasher and now this our washing machine. DONT BUY GE products they are truly awful and un reliable. Eveb with total tech we have to wait 5 days without a washing machine and hope this part they are coming with will fix the problem. What a hassel for a near brand new machine.

Terrible
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This washer lasted 14 months. Broke to the point we lost an entire load of clothes which remained locked inside this machine and after a month of attempted repairs, I was forced to buy a new washer.

Gave out and barley going on it's 3rd year.
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well this week my washer decided not to drain the water, so now I have to wait until Dec 28 for someone to come and look at it. Good thing I bought the warranty, if not I would have to buy a new one, which I don't have the $$ for as of now

Not as expected
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We purchased the washer and dryer less than 2 years ago in Sept. 2020. The dryer is fine but we've had issues with the washer. A few times the clothes have been too wet after a completed cycle. Since there is not a spin only button, we have to re-rinse(wasting more water) then spin. The most recent was today when it kept cutting off/loosing power less than 30 secs into any cycle. Then the screen went black except for the mins and it was making a noise as if it was still running but we opened the door and it was not however, the noise continued even with the door open. Unplugged it several times but still didn't work. Finally unplugged for about 5 mins, plugged back in-and nothing, came back 5-10 minutes later and able to power on. The cycle is running now so hopefully it will complete. This washer cost too much and from what I thought a good company to have these problems less than 2 years from purchase.

At this point everything seems awesome
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have not purchased GE products for a very long time. Was very pleasantly surprised of the quality. However I am only shy of four weeks of use on the two new units washer and dryer. At this point however everything seems to be working perfectly.

Highly Recommend This Washer
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Only one month in but I'm loving my washer in my new home! I've already recommended this product to 3 coworkers in need of a replacement. I do wish there were more control features on the app. It seems to only allow monitoring. Nevertheless, great product!

GE washing machine
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Machine works ... If I gave a "2 stars" to this GE washer, its because being " Very loud" when cycles changing and at the end, when washer spins, it literally sounds like a plane, swirlling in laundry room. If you intend to have it in garage, then you might be ok. But personnally I cannot recommend it!

No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from GE Answers
Posted .While we’re glad the washer is working well, we know any issue with unexpected noise may be concerning. We do expect the washer to make some sounds as it operates. If the noise seems loud or unusual, you may want to make sure the unit is leveled (the leveling legs can be adjusted if needed) and the pump filter isn’t clogged. Troubleshooting tips for an issue with noise or vibration are available on page 32 of the manual; that can be viewed on our GE Appliances website when you look up the model number and go to the product page. If you’re not able to resolve the issue and think service may be needed, that department can be reached at 833-426-3393. A technician would be glad to examine the unit, if needed. -Sarah@GEAppliances
