Customers are saying

Customers regard the 4.8 Cu. Ft. High-Efficiency Front Load Washer with UltraFresh Vent System highly for its cleaning performance, quiet operation, and large capacity, with many also praising its ease of use and the effective UltraFresh Vent System. Positive feedback also highlights the powerful spin cycle, resulting in reduced drying time. While some users experienced issues with reliability and reported occasional musty smells, these concerns were less frequent than the overwhelmingly positive reviews.

    This front load washer is easy to use and does a good time conserving on water. If you connect it to your phone app, it lets you know when it’s nearly cycle completion and sends reminders that it is done. Please note, only one phone/person can be linked to a washer/dryer. My wife and I tried having it linked to both of our phone apps, but unlinks then previous phone app once you try linking a second phone app.

    Purchased this in December 2020 after old LG Front Loader broke down after about 10 years. We've used the machine a lot since purchasing a month and a half ago and couldn't be happier with the machine and Best Buy's delivery and installation service. The Ultrafresh system is fantastic, and we don't miss the moldy smell that always seemed to come from the old LG. Get's clothes clean, and the smart feature, which I didn't expect to use, is fantastic. It gives a notification to your mobile device when your laundry cycle is finished. You can also track how much time is left from your phone. Machine seems solid and well built - highly recommended.

    Just got the new machine 2 days ago. Really happy with it so far. Easy to use and it’s so much quieter than our old front loader. Very impressed with how dry the towels were when the cycle was done. Only have used 3 of the 10 cycles, but I’m happy with the performance. The number one reason I bought this machine was for the venting system. My old machine had a terrible moldy odor that I could no longer get rid of. Time will tell how well the ventilation system works to prevent mold buildup on this new machine.

    Dryer trap plastic parts broke 1 at a time in the 1st week. Other than that everything is exceptionally and impeccable. Just got the steam hose attachment for steam cleaning. Do know, if u do not purchase the attachment some functionalitys are rendered useless as described but not as clearly as I'd like. Huge and does a great job did shrink a few things but could be a U.E huge and great but plan to replace dryer lint Catherine. Hope they have um somewhere locally and hopefully covered in the 1year warrenty

    Washer worked fine for the first 14 months, then the board/sensor went out that controls the door lock and the washer wouldn't work at all. The motor has a 10-year warranty, but everything else has 1 year, so we were out of luck. Didn't buy the extended warranty because I've never had a washer not last at least 5 years. The repair man told us this model breaks down quite often. Next time I won't buy GE.

    So far so good- we’ve been using the washer for 6 weeks. Spins super fast which helps the drying to be faster. Overall- great washing machine- seems to clean out clothes better- love the fresh vent feature - we still leave it open or cracked so we don’t run the fresh vent constantly.

    I absolutely LOVE this washer. It has multiple cycles, all which are useful. The slots where you put the detergent and fabric softener are rinsed with each cycle, preventing the “gunk” buildup I had with my previous washer. The Ultrafresh Vent Sytem keeps the drum from getting that stale scent. Did I mention I just love this washing machine, and I am pretty much a laundry perfectionist ;)

    Forced an app and wi-fi down on me just to work

    After 15 months of normal operating, the machine stopped working already. The front controls were acting funky and it would not start a cycle. Googled and it turns out, I was required to connect the machine to my wifi, download an app, create an account and run software updates on a LAUNDRY MACHINE ? I am not buying another appliance that has any type of wi-fi ever again. I do not want any companies out there running data analysis on my laundry, dishwasher, baking, vacuum or fridge habits. I'm going back to the basics next time.
