It’s sturdy. I just used it to elevate the washer. I don’t use the drawer. I would have bought the taller one.

Perfect height to fit under my overhead cabinets!!

The extra 7" of height provided by this pedestal makes it easier to load and unload my Ultrafast Washer/Dryer Combo. Getting the machine off the ground also helps when it comes time to drain the water pump filter for cleaning, since there's more room to position a container to catch the water.
However, the very sticky rubber feet and the narrow access between the pedestal and machine make it difficult to make fine adjustments when leveling the combo. Front-load machines spin very fast, so precise leveling is critical. Even if you pay for a professional install, sometimes fine-tuning will be needed after the fact, and it's hard to do with this pedestal.
Finally, the front panel appears to only be attached to the rest of the pedestal at the 2 upper corners. This leaves the panel free to move at the bottom edge. During spin cycles, this results in loud shaking and creaking noises. I'm considering using double-sided foam tape to secure the panel.
I have this unit because it came free with the purchase of an Ultrafast Combo. At the full MSRP, I don't think it's worth picking up. If you need the extra height because of limited mobility, it's the only option available.

Awful experience with Best Buy! We purchased the washer/dryer combo and a dishwasher 7/28 and now as of 8/14 it has not been delivered! I’m so angry. First time the delivery guy said we needed plumbing fixed plumber said not true. Second time we had an appointment but a glitch happened on their end and no appointment is available. Lastly today they said it’s on the truck headed to out house now five hours later still no delivery. It’s 6:30 pm est so I guess I will cancel and take my $3,000 elsewhere!!
To best address your concern, please reach out to Best Buy support by calling 1-888-BEST BUY (1-888-237-8289) or by visiting the Support Center at the Best Buy website. They can either address your concern or direct you to your local store for further assistance. Lauren@GEAppliances

Finally getting the undamaged part and the initiative of the installers to complete the installation is the only reason for the five stars.
This pedestal was designed to increase the height of your washer or dryer by 7 inches, making it easier to load and unload laundry and allowing you to use the top as a folding surface! We're glad to hear you're enjoying it and we're confident it will continue to make your laundry routine more accessible.

Love the washer. It texts me when the wash is complete and sends another notification if I leave clothes in the washer for 30 minutes. Nice and quiet too.
