    The dehumidifier works OK but it makes an annoying clicking sound at higher speeds.

    Best Buy sent me a used item! I saw another review that pointed out the same issue. Apparently, no one checked to correct the issue. Reselling a used product as new after it’s been pointed out is intentional and very stupid.

      Hey there, and thanks for letting us know about this situation. We truly hate to hear a used appliance was sold to you as new – we know that must have been disconcerting. While GE may resell an appliance clearly marked as pre-owned, it is not our policy to sell anything previously owned as new. We recommend contacting Best Buy’s Customer Service directly to address this issue. We will certainly also let our Quality Control team know of this issue for review – we appreciate you sharing your experience, as we always want to make sure we’re aware of any possible areas of concern. We’re happy to assist any time if you have any other inquiries or concerns. -Sarah@GEA GE_Appliances

    Junk! Do Not buy this junk! The product stopped working right around warranty expired and the incompetent customer service of GE never picked up my call or responded back to my multiple messages. I am never buying anything made by GE ever again.

      Thank you for connecting wish us! At GE Appliances, we strive to deliver the highest quality products and services that meet every need of our consumers; however, we understand that there is always room for improvement. This said, we would like to apologize for any inconvenience this dehumidifier has caused you. The one-year warranty is designed to grant the most coverage during the times when a unit is most likely to experience issues. Typically, when a unit fails because of a manufacturing defect, this happens well within the first year of operation. Because of this, we highly recommend reaching out to us on social media, and we’ll be happy to investigate this issue further. All the best – Matthew@GEA GE_Appliances

    This GE dehumidifier lasted one season. It will turn on if I power it down, but the compressor won’t start and it shuts down after a few minutes and doesn’t dry the air. Too expensive for one season of use.

      Hi there, we're very sorry to see your dehumidifier only lasted one season. We can imagine your disappointment and we're happy to help. We suggest you check with local servicers to see if they service dehumidifiers. We're sorry to say that there aren't any repair parts for dehumidifiers, and GE Appliances Factory Service does not service them. You can also try to reach out to the dealer from which you purchased it from for additional assistance. All the best. - Guy@GEA GE_Appliances

      Hey there, and thanks for reporting this issue to us. We truly hate to hear you’ve had an issue with your dehumidifier, and moisture isn’t being removed from the air. We know how inconvenient that must be, especially when you haven’t had the unit that long. This isn’t the quality experience we want you to have as an owner, and we’d like to help. You may want to check that the air flow around the dehumidifier isn’t restricted by curtains, furniture, etc., as well as the filter to ensure it’s clean; both those factors are important for dehumidifying. Additional troubleshooting tips for this issue are available on page 9 of the manual, which can be viewed on our GE website by looking up the model number. Details on the limited warranty from GE are also available on page 11, if you need to review that at all. We hope this information helps and the issue with your dehumidifier is resolved soon. If you have any further questions or concerns, we are always glad to help. -Sarah@GEA GE_Appliances
