Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the product's excellent cleaning performance, low noise level, and ease of use, frequently praising its good load capacity and the UltraFresh Vent System. The exceptional spin cycle is also a positive point, though some customers have raised concerns regarding its reliability, citing issues like draining problems, and a musty smell. Additionally, its higher price, heavy weight, and occasional cosmetic issues like scratches on the door have been noted as drawbacks.

    Runs well except clothes came out dripping wet, unlike my previous Whirlpool washer, which is cheaper and less elaborate than this GE unit. Need to find time to “study” the user manual and hopefully “discover” if it has an effective spin cycle.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
