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.

Very Pleased.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would recommend this product. We previously had a G.E. front Load Washer for 12 years and wanted the same quality. Item was as described with plus improvements from the previous 12 year old unit we had.

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.

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

Washer Control Panel
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Delivery and set up were great. The washer control board however went out in less than 2 years and total repairs will be over 500. Get a warranty if buying this GE washer as they break down fast.

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!

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.

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.

It’s an ok washer. Not really impressed.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This washer is ok. I wish I would have done more research on this particular unit. For the same price at another local appliance store I could have gotten this washer with more features for the same price. By more features I mean, steam wash and the detergent filler spot which allows you to pot a bottle of detergent in and not have to add detergent to wash load. The washer does wash the majority of my laundry, I have 4 kids. I do find the unit overall is much louder than my previous washer as well. I would not purchase this washer again.
