Terrible - Do Not Buy

If I could give this 0 stars I would. It stopped working the second day it arrived - any cycle that ran with just hot water, would not fill. Cold water washes worked just fine. GE customer support was unable to send a technican out for over a week, at which point it was faster to return the product and have a new one delivered.
Although Best Buy reviews reports no negative feedback - there is plenty of negative feedback about this washer online (specifically Reddit) that reports the same problem that I had.
We are sorry to hear of your experience with this washer and the hot and cold water cycles. While we are confident that this washer will serve you well for many years to come, your feedback is extremely important to us. We will pass these comments along to our product team to review.

Good until it Broke

Was good for 13 months and then the motherboard broke along with the door lock. Stuck with wet clothes in there for 2 weeks. Have a total tech plan which geek squad came out and there was no attempt to try to repair anything. Ordered a main board and new lock mechanism and will have to wait an additional week.
The fresh vent doesn’t work as intended - it still would smell musty after using it after each wash.
We're sorry to hear you're having an issue with the motherboard and door lock, as well as the UltraFresh Vent system, and we'd like to help. For the motherboard and door lock issue, please continue working with your extended warranty provider, as they're truly best equipped to assist you in this case. As for the musty smell you're experiencing, we recommend trying the troubleshooting tips on page 34 of the Use and Care Manual in the "Bad odor inside your washer" section. You can locate the Use and Care Manual in the "From the Manufacturer" section of this product page. If these tips don't resolve the issue, please reach out to your service provider for further assistance. - Julia@GEAppliances

The washing machine stopped working after a year and a half. The machine will turn on, but then click off after a few seconds. The screen goes blank. I called GE for service, but was told it was out of warranty. So then we called a local appliance repair person who diagnosed it as a problem with the Ultra Fresh Vent. She cleared the codes and it worked again for 2 weeks and then the same problem happened again. We just had another appliance repair person out today who says that the problem is with the main control board that will cost $420 to repair! We've already spent $154 in diagnoses, but it still is not even working.
Seeing many other reviews here with the same problem! Sounds like a manufacturing flaw, that GE doesn't support. It's going to cost almost as much to repair by getting a new control board installed as we paid for it, with no guarantee that the new board won't have the same problem. So it looks like this machine is a piece of junk after 1.5 years that is headed to the dump.
We're truly sorry to hear about the ongoing issues you've experienced with your washing machine and understand how frustrating this must be. 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

I am very happy with my Ge Ultra fresh washer. My favorite feature is the auto detergent dispenser. But honestly every feature is great. I washed a king size comforter, sheets, pillow cases and it handled them no problem.
Thank you for taking the time to leave your review. We are happy that you are enjoying the size capacity that your new washer unit has to offer. We think you will also be impressed with its many features. One we like is the WIFI Smart feature allowing you to start, stop and monitor your laundry from anywhere while receiving real-time notifications and updates. Dianna@GE Appliances

This laundry machine was a nightmare. I bought it because my mom has had hers for over 10 years, but it is clear that they do not make them how they used to. The technician told us that the machine had a severe electrical issue that kept frying the lock part. He recommended buying a new laundry machine. My brother also has the same laundry machine for the same reason, he thought it'd last over 10 years. Sure enough, it broke down already. It was a $450 repair. We've both had our laundry machines for less than 2 years. I would NOT recommend. HORRIBLE
We're sorry to hear about the lock mechanism needing to be repaired. We are glad to see that you got in touch with service and was able to get everything resolved. We're confident that this unit is going to serve you for many more years to come.

Our old washer was breaking down so we upgraded to this machine. It’s a really good washer. I didn’t realize it was also a dryer. We don’t use those settings at all since we bought a bigger capacity dryer. We’ve had this washer for about a month and we really like it so far.

I love this washing machine. It has a lot of features: dryer and vent, cold water wash, delicates, bulk items, etc. I would definitely recommend it to others.

I'm sure this review will be flagged due to not being the equipment fault. Best Buy not honoring a price match. the situation is that the price changed just a week after purchasing. I called 3 days after the window of price matching. I have purchased many large purchases from Best Buy. Best Buy will not honor the price match if you call late, even though the price was changed during your window of price match. I work in customer services and when a customer is looking for support. I mean resemble support. I try to help anyway I can. This will be my last big purchase from Best Buy

Bought a second one. First one only lasted 4 years. I’d get the 5 year protection plan. Little pricey. Lots of options, WiFi connection is handy to tell you when it’s done.

Really an amazing option without breaking the bank. Love the smart hq app that notifies you of your washing and drying to avoid leaving any clothes behind. Would recommended this product to anyone going new while being price conscious.
