Two lemons in a row, AVOID!!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased this washer in Sept 2021, and it lasted about 2 years before it broke. Repair person said the cost to repair so more than cost of the washer, so it would be cheaper to replace. Got a new one thinking it couldn't happen twice but the second one only lasted a little over a year!! What I piece of garbage. GE should be ashamed of themselves!

Horrible washer/dryer Best Buy not fixing
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are horrible!! Both the washer and dryer went out and they are just over 2 years old. Best Buy sent a tech out and when he left and I turned on the washer two of my rooms got flooded. Been 3 weeks without a washer and Best Buy is doing nothing to help!! They don’t stand behind the extended warranty they sell either!!

Posted .Thank you for sharing your experience. If you have an extended warranty and your unit is not working properly, we recommend continuing to work with them for a resolution. They will be able to help get an appointment scheduled to have your unit looked at.

Never again
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Broke 5 minutes after the one year warranty expired, almost like they sent a kill command…. Worked pretty nicely for the one year though, I’ll give it that

Posted .We know any issue with your washer must be concerning. We always want to provide a great experience, and we’d like to assist. If the washer doesn’t seem to have power at all, resetting it by disconnecting it from power for a couple of minutes before reconnecting may help. Troubleshooting tips are available starting on page 31 of the manual; if you’d like to view that, you can do so on our GE Appliances website when you look up the model number and go to the product’s page. If you’re not able to resolve the issue with troubleshooting and think service may be needed, Bodewell (GE Appliances’ team of appliance care experts) can be reached at 833-426-3393. A technician would be glad to examine the unit. You’re also more than welcome to reach out over our GE Appliances social media (such as Facebook or Instagram) with a copy of this review and your contact information. We’d be glad to look into your situation further. -Sarah@GEAppliances

Shakes the house
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The washer looks nice, features and auto dispense are great, but it shakes far too much. Maybe if you had it on concrete it would be tolerable but for a 2nd story laundry room it’s awful. I’ve put a single pair of jeans in it and as soon as the spin cycle gets going it’s intolerable, to the point I think it’s going to break something. I wish there was a way to slow down the spin cycle. I’m very disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from GE Answers
Posted .We appreciate you reaching out and being a valued GE Appliance customer. We would like to provide some guidance to help with the shaking of your unit. Keep in mind this washer is designed to move 1/4” to reduce forces transmitted to the floor. This movement is normal. One thing to check is that all rubber leveling legs are firmly touching the floor. Push and pull on the back right and then back left of your washer to check if it is level. If the washer is uneven, adjust the rubber leveling legs so they are all firmly touching the floor and locked in place. Another thing to make sure is that the load in the unit is balanced. If the unit becomes unbalanced, you’ll want to pause the unit, open the door and manually redistribute load. To check the machine, run the rinse and spin with no load. If normal, unbalance was caused by load. This and more troubleshooting can be found on the website in your use and care guide (page 28).

Washer with A lot of great features
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The service team that installed our new washer was very professional. We have only had the washer a week. This morning the door won’t open after running a load. The help guide says there might be a clog. Fingers crossed that it is an easy fix.

Buy a basic washer
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had this washer for less than a year and it is no longer working…it will not complete a cycle or drain. I have reached out to GE to have it repaired, as it is under warranty but that process is not going smoothly. I am being told the earliest it can be serviced is a month from now. Once they do look at it who knows how long it will take from then, if a part needs to be ordered. So, I have a washer that I paid $1300 for ten months ago and I’m going to the laundry mat for the next month and have been for the past week. Ridiculous. No I worked not recommended this washer.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from GE Answers
Posted .If you have not already done so, we recommend you disconnect power to your washer for 2-3 minutes to reset the electronics. Also, clean your pump filter as described on Page 21 of the Owner's Manual. If the washer is unable to drain the water from the wash basket, this can prevent it from spinning and/or completing the cycle. If needed, the Owner's Manual is available for you to view, download or print. Click on the Features tab and scroll all the way down till you see the Owner's Manual link. If your issues continue, we encourage you to send us (GE Appliances) a private message on one of our social channels (Facebook, Instagram) with your contact information, model and serial numbers, service information, and a copy of your review so we can research your situation. -Vikki@GEAppliances

DO NOT BUY this GE model - Awful
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have now been through 3 of these washers and 2 of the matching dryer. Every one I get squeaks rattles and sounds like its going to destroy itself when you use it. I would never buy these again. Only good thing about it is that you can put a king comforter in it. Otherwise BUYER BEWARE!!!!

GE Washer
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love my GE set but do anyone have issues with vibration when it’s in the spinning mode?
I would recommend this to a friendBrand response from GE Answers
Posted .We're happy to hear that you love your new GE Profile washer! To reduce vibration, ensure that all four rubber leveling legs are firmly touching the floor. Push and pull on the back right and then back left of your washer. If this doesn't prove helpful, we recommend you review the "Loud or unusual
noise; vibration or shaking" section on pg. 32 of the Owner's Manual. Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback.

It's a gas leaker
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Delivered yesterday and installed by BB. Leaks gas when turned on. Unusable--never been used. BB won't replace it immediately and given our schedule it will be a month without laundry. Seems they should put a priority on replacing it, but they will not.

Ask about any Warnings Prior to Buying
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If I had known that there was a cancer and reproductive harm warning on the product prior to it being delivered I wouldn't have purchased it. However, I will say the features on the washer are great!
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from GE Answers
Posted .California Proposition 65 which was enacted in 1986 requires companies to provide a warning for thousands of consumer products, foods, prescription drugs, alcoholic beverages, enclosed parking facilities, amusement parks, furniture, and other everyday items. We provide the warning to comply with California law and because a Prop 65 chemical may be present. Exposure limits do not exist for all 900+ chemicals. Even inaccessible parts can create a requirement to include the warning. We do understand your concern and want to clarify, the presence of a Prop 65 warning does not necessarily mean the product is unsafe or poses a health risk.
