Very good but not great
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pros: There is no static when taking the clothes out of the dryer. No more worries about having to leave the house with a load in the machine. The delayed start option is also very helpful. The filter is very easy to clean – however, I recommend cleaning it after EVERY load as it does fill up quikly and there are lint “bunnies” all around the outside of the filter. (Gotta protect that heat pump). I also use a small, soft brush to clean the interior of the machine where the filter sits to remove bits of lint in there. Also occasionally use an extended crevace tool to vacuum in there. It’s very quiet and my laundry closet now has so much more space. Cons: The alarm sound letting you know that the machine cycle is completed is quick and not very loud. I would prefer if it was a bit longer so that it would be easier to hear. Hopefuly this can be adjusted with a software update. This is my first front loading machine, so I don’t know if my “problems” are the same for all front loaders, or just this machine. The wells on the top drawer that hold the bleach and fabric softener, always have SOME water in them after every load. I have a cloth to absorb it all as well as I can since I don’t want mold to grow in there overtime. There are times, however, when the bleach well is completely full of water. This is harder to empty out when you have the ‘Smart Dispense’ laundry detergent compartment filled with detergent. I remove the tray and bring it to the sink to tip towards the back and drain as much water as I can (this will also leak some of the detergent). The residual water can be absorbed with a cloth. Every time the door is opened it seems like there is always water dripping from the left side. This seems to be coming from the water left in the bleach/fabric softener wells. If you empty them out, the dripping stops. The blue silicone around the opening needs to be cleaned after each load – lint and hair seems to collect there. I have also noticed some lint buildup around the door opening – the narrow section between the edge of the blue silicon and the metal drum. I found a damp Q-Tip to fit in comfortably and will remove the lint. This is a tedious task, so I will probably only do it monthly. The machine was leveled by the installers, but at one point of the wash cycle, there is a lot of vibrations. Enough that items stored on my shelves above the machine fall off. My machine is also up on my second floor above the kitchen. The vibrations also had my glasses moving around in the cupboards. I had one glass fall out on me when opening the cupboard door, so I had to install a brace in my cupboards to prevent this from happeining again. There’s a lot of maintenance after a load of laundry is done, but I do like having the ability to leave it for 2-3 hours and come back to a completed load. Overall, I am happy with the machine and am hopeful that software updates will eventually fix the issues.

Door Is NOT reversible
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This door is not reversible, which is ridiculous for a high-priced machine. A reversible door is a required option on any front-loading machine.

Posted .Hello - thanks for sharing your review and feedback on your new Ultrafast Combo. The reason the door cannot be reversed is because the interior glass of the door is shaped differently than our existing UltraFresh Front Loading products. The new curved shape accommodates and directs the incoming airflow to manage the drying of the load. We hope this is informative and want to thank you for your insight. We will be sure to pass this along to our design and engineering teams so they may improve our future designs. Thanks for being a part of the GEA Family and let us know if there is anything else we can assist with. Take care. Lauren@GEA

Huge Time Saver Compared to Traditional Ventless D
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been using this washer and dryer combo for about one month now. Before this, I had separate machines, and I have owned ventless dryers before, so I know they usually take a very long time to dry. With my previous ventless dryer, drying alone could take up to 4 hours. With this GE Profile UltraFast combo, the total wash and dry time is about 2.5 to 3 hours, depending on the load, which saves me a lot of time. What I like the most is the convenience. I start the cycle and forget about it until it’s done, and the clothes come out clean and dry. I honestly did not think I would like a washer-dryer combo this much, but it has been very practical. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because it makes a loud knocking noise at the beginning of the cycle. It only happens when it starts working, but it is noticeable. Overall, I am very happy with this machine and would recommend it, especially if you want to save time and space.

Posted .We understand an issue with excessive noise and vibration would be concerning, and we want to assist. To address an issue with excessive vibration, we recommend making sure the Combo is balanced (the leveling legs can be adjusted if needed) and the pump filter isn’t clogged. More troubleshooting tips are available on page 28 of the manual, which you can view on our GE Appliances website when you look up the model number and go to the product page. Checking the shipping hardware to ensure it’s been properly removed is also recommend (and is discussed on page 24), as not removing that hardware can cause the Combo to become unbalanced. If you continue to have trouble with excessive vibration and noise and think service may be needed, that department can be reached at 1-800-432-2737. Your feedback regarding the design will also be shared with our team for consideration.

Life changing
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.we love this washer dryer combo. the full cycle takes about 2 1/2 hours - no more forgetting loads in the washer and having to rewash. It has been a game changer. The filter does need to be cleaned every time , that is just something to get used to

One machine to do the work of two!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Clear instructions and control panel make this easy to use. Being able to set both wash and drier program at the start is very convenient, and the fact that you can check the app to see how far in the cycle the machine is helps you manage your time. The wrinkle care function is great. I like the way you can adjust how dry you want the clothes, and particularly like the fact that the dry clothes don’t have that musty “drier” smell.

Almost perfect
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Greatest machine ever maid (pun). For some of you, you will have to adjust the way you do things to really embrace this machine. With a traditional set-up, separate washer and dryer, you could wash and dry 2 loads in 3 hours. With this machine the same 2 loads would take 4 hours only because you can't start the second load while the first is still drying like you could with the 2 machine set up. What you can do is put a load in before bedtime and wake up to dry clothes. You can also put in a load and go out to breakfast or shop, the app will tell you when the load is done. You don't have to stay home because you put in a load of clothes. Seriously, either change your habits or buy a second one to cut your 2 load laundry time down to 2 hours... this machine is the future. My calculations show that it costs me .24 cents a load. So amazing that it uses 110 and only about 850 watts to dry the clothes. The old school electric dryers use up to 5000 watts that's why the 220V plug was necessary. There is ONE flaw so far and that is lint bypasses the filter at the points of 4 little clips on the lint catcher. Looking into the machine you'll see mounds of lint build up on the condenser after just a few weeks use... that's no good. I fixed this with flexible silicone caulking on the little clips to seal the slits closed. It leaves them still able to flex but blocks the lint.

Game changer
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This combo is incredible! We have had it almost a month and are very happy with it. Not having to do load transfer is a game changer. Also the heat pump ventless option is great. We no longer have to pay someone every year to clean our vent pipe. One thing we were concerned about before purchasing was noise, but the wash cycle is no more noisy than a large front load washer. For the dry cycle, I measured 60 dB, when placing my phone near the front. So noise is not an issue for washing nor drying. A couple things that might be nice in a future version: 1) Sensors to know if one has removed the lint filter and corresponding software change to not prompt one for lint filter cleaning if it has been removed. We clean the filter after every load, because some loads generate a lot of lint. 2). The SmartHQ app gives information on how many loads are done each day. It would be nice if it could also give us information on how many kWh of electricity it uses per day, which our heat pump water heater provides. In addition to also provide how many gallons of water used. I am not sure if this would just be a software update or require additional sensors.

New Profile Combo
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We are generally pleased with this combo unit with the pedestal. Energy consumption and cleaning is very good. We did order the upgraded lint filter assumbly to help with lint on the coils of the drying heat pump. Only downside is when it spins, it does rock and make a lot more noise than we were used too. Yes, the shopping bolts are removed, pedestal installed properly and its level on both axis.

GE profile
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far it's doing good. Time consuming as I'm trying to get used to all in one machine. Also trying to keep everything clean after each use. I'm noticing, after a load there's a lot of water in the bleach and liquid dispensers (top left) that I dump out after each use. I'm also wiping out the water that collects in the rubber ring around the front door. All in all I'm satisfied with the clothes being clean and dry.

Dissapointed in the fine print
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I thought the Best buy service of delivery and installation was outstanding on this GE Profile load washer /dryer combo. they took the time to set it up and run a cycle to ensure the operation . The unit worked flawlessly for 10 months then then what I believe was the drain pump failed . I contacted best buy who directed me to GE warranty. They stated my machine was out of warranty as the fine print in their warranty states 1 year from date of purchase. there was a 2 month delay in delivery so the warranty starts the day of purchase , not delivery. so buyer beware and get the extended warranty. I loved the machine , but not happy with GE.. or best buy at this moment.

Not worth the money
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great idea. But definitely not worth the the money. Full cycle last about 3 hours plus leaves clothes damp a little.yes I understand it says to pull the clothes out to completely dry so it defeats the purpose of an all in one in my opinion. Definitely do not get if you have a a family of 4 or more . We returned and got a top loader washer and dryer for half the price.
