I would recommend this to a friendProblems with balance
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the machine open box and it was filled with water when I brought it home. On the second day that I had it, it became unbalanced and I suspect that this is why it had been returned. I planned on returning it also but couldn't get it back to the store. Now I use it and constantly worry that it will get unbalanced as this is one of the problems that the machine is reported to have.

Posted .If you're having issues with balance we recommend that you ensure that its being loaded properly and not being overloaded. If it is properly loaded, please have one of our certified technicians come out and take a look. Service can be set up online on our website under the ownership tab or by calling 1-800-GE-CARES.
Do not buy!
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This washer has been a nightmare for our household. It is impossible to balance with a heavy load. If all you plan on washing is t shirts this may work for you. Towels and anything else that absorbs and holds a lot of water forget it. On numerous occasions it has caused the machine to walk so far away from the wall that the drain hose disconnected and poured water all over the floor. We have now been washing towels at a laundromat until we can afford to replace this washer we bought just a few months ago.

Water level is poor
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Water level is terrible even in extra fill selection.

Posted .Thank you for sharing your feedback. This is a high-efficiency washing machine which requires less water while providing effective cleaning action. You may notice that the water level is lower than on your previous washer and may not cover the top level of the clothes. This is normal. -- If you still prefer to have a higher water level, you can use the “Deep Fill” feature which adds 3 gallons of water to the wash load if pressed once or can provide the deepest fill possible if held for 3 seconds.

Buy something else
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I hate this washing machine with the fire of a thousand suns. It is awful. It is never balanced and takes constant readjustment of the clothes and it makes horribly loud sound when it locks making late night laundry with kids nearly impossible.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from GE Answers
Posted .We understand your concern about the balancing issue and the sound you're hearing. For help with the balancing issue, please allow cycle to continue and finish. If load is wet at the end of the cycle, even out load and run a Drain & Spin cycle. Newer refrigerators sound different from older models. Modern refrigerators have more features and use newer technology which produces more noise. We would like for you to review the "Sounds" section on pg, 24 of the Owner's Manual for a description of the sounds that are considered normal.
If the balancing problem persists and/or you consider the noise you're hearing as abnormal, we recommend scheduling a service appointment for one of our qualified technicians to assess your washer. You can schedule an appointment by calling us at: 1-800-432-2737.
