DON'T BUY THIS
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an AWFUL WASHER. It continuously has water supply issues. CONTINUOUSLY since the first week. I didn't get to use it for the first time after the 30 days. I WOULDN'T RECOMMEND. I even paid for Best Buy to hook up for me. WORST PURCHASE I'VE EVER MADE!! NOT TO MENTION THE IDIOTS THAT SET IT UP DIDN'T ADJUST MY DOORS SO THEY CLASH EVERYTIME YOU OPEN. IT'S THE WORST REALLY!!

Posted .While it is normal for your front load washer to use less water than a top load model, please know that you have a one-year warranty with us that you can take advantage of by calling 833-426-3393. Our technicians would be happy to ensure that your unit is working as it should.

Smart washer?
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just got this washer and am giving one star because i don't understand why sell, and therefore why should I have bought a smart washer when all you can do in the app is view the state of the machine. The sales people made it sound like i could do special stuff in the app. The app doesn't even let you turn on the machine so what's so smart about it. There isn't even one control function available. But something else, this just seems like it's one more thing that can go wrong with the machine.

Mold growth
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hi, I have had this machine for 6 months, and the mold that's growing is terrible. It started within 2 months and is just getting worse, despite our efforts to treat it. Calling Best Buy today to see what options I have.

Posted .We're glad you reached out. To help with this issue, please run a Self-Clean cycle by selecting the Self Clean feature on the control panel. The Self Clean cycle should be performed, at a minimum, once per month or about every 30-40 wash cycles. Before starting the Self Clean cycle, you'll need to pour one cup or 250 ml of liquid bleach or other washing machine cleaner into the basket. It's recommended to run a Rinse & Spin or a light color load after the Self Clean cycle. If the issue continues, please take advantage of the one year warranty by scheduling a service appointment for one of our Bodewell technicians to assess your unit. You can schedule an appointment by calling us at: 833-4BODEWELL (833-426-3393), Monday – Friday: 8 a.m. – 8 p.m. ET, Saturday – Sunday: Closed. -Don@GEAppliances

Noisy and Terrible
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This machine is terrible. This is my second one installed from Best Buy under warranty. It has nothing to do with the installation. The machine rattles and rocks back and forth during the spin cycle. It doesn’t matter if you have one pair of pants or a regular load of clothing, it shakes and can be heard throughout the entire house! I can’t stand it. I’m returning this trash and buying an LG or something. Hopefully it won’t have the same problem.

Posted .We know an issue with your washer not functioning properly must be concerning, and we want to help. If the washer isn’t working at all, you may want to check the fuse/circuit breaker to ensure there’s no issue. You can also try disconnecting the unit from power for a couple of minutes before reconnecting; this resets the electrical components and can often resolve an issue. If it may be helpful, troubleshooting tips for your model are available starting on page 31 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 concern with troubleshooting and think service may be needed, that department can be reached at 833-426-3393. A technician would be glad to examine the washer.
