Perfectly good washer
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works fine, no bells and whistles but get clothes clean. They cycle doesn’t take forever which is a good thing. We specifically bought this one because the door could be reversed to open from the left.

Trust me
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After our LG took a dump, I started searcing around for a high quality front loader. The sales person at home depot swore up and down about this washer actually, saying it was the best all around on the market and had a vent feature. My girlfriend found a display model at our local best buy and the rest is history! After a hiccup with our comforter as the first load, its been smooth sailing and cleans way better than our last sad case of an LG. It wrings out heavy loads wayyyyy better!!

Best washer
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this washer. I had the exact same washer in 2021. I moved and the movers dropped it 4 times and I saw continuous problems after it had been damaged significantly but it continued to work. I finally bought a new one Black Friday. The same but like new again. Very reliable. Never any problems with mold or the door. Nice upgrade that they took off the auto dispenser because I never used it anyway in the first washer

GE 4.8 Cu. Ft. front load washer
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far so good with my new washer. It's nice and quiet. I love having so many different settings available for just the right wash. The ultra fresh vent system leaves the washer without the musty smell so many front loaders have.

They make em like they use to
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We were really sad when our previous washer and dryer went out. But we chose these and they are fantastic! Easy to use. Work really well. All settings seem to be effective and efficient. They sit a little low so I do recommend a pedestal.

Wifi and vent features awesome
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the vent and wifi features. Spins slow on factory settings, i would recommend using the my settings to max the spin speed. Dont overload the machine either, wont spin. also, I would suggest checking w the store not the online or phone help line prior to your delivery date, they are not helpful and dont really know whats going on. I was quite a hassle and unnecessary delay. Didnt have our hoses in stock , didnt inform us and waited all day for it noy tto show up, But they did upgrade to the stainless hoses for free and discounted the washer and dryer at the store. In-store shopping is recommended vs bestbuy.com

Great washer
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am very pleased at how much you are able to wash in this machine and how easy it is to use. It has many options, I do not always know which is best to use however. The cycle time is also not very long for most usual loads.

Defective washer leaking door GE no help
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This washer has been leaking from the gasket since we bouth a fewonths ago. I have had two technicians from GE out to look at the problem. The first time the tech came out we did not know where the leak was coming from. The second time i had video of the leak from the door gasket and showed it to the tech ...he told me it was normal and we should not do laundry when not home just to be safe. How is this not a defect? I can guarantee GE will never be purchaed again by me or my family. Go with LG or Samsung....never had a problem with leaking using those.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from GE Answers
Posted .Hello- Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are very sorry to hear you are having these issues with your washer and can understand your concern. Leaks on a front load washer can be caused by soil and soap being left on the door seal after a wash. Carefully wipe off the rubber door seal to prevent small leaks, making sure to wipe the edge of the gasket. Please take a look at the following troubleshooting link:

We apologize for your inconvenience and want you to know that we appreciate your business and hope you stay in our GE Family. If you have any questions in the future, please let us know. We are always happy to help! Joyce@GEA
