My old washer was the same as this one and I loved it. This one has new updates on it. Still getting used to them. But I love it. Spins sometimes (I think a little too long). And sometimes the spin cycle is loud. But other than normal stuff. I really love the way it washes my clothes. Always nice and clean. Agitator is great!!!

I am still trying to learn my new washer. Because most washers are designed to conserve water, they won’t fill up the tum regardless of the cubic size. For this reason, you have to buy a “deep fill” washer. My washer has the button to activate it, but it doesn’t come on when I have it Normal wash. It works on Towels, Delicates, Casual wear, Activewear, etc, but not the Normal cycle. At least my new washer is quiet. My old Kenmore had a timer that indicated how long wash will take, but not the GE. I will have to time it. I miss the days when I knew how long a wash would take and when the tub would fill up.

I love love love this washer. So many settings to perfectly clean all of today’s types of clothes. My washing machine and dryer set in my kitchen no way to hide them. They look nice and are super quiet compared to my old Amana. I can watch a movie in my living room and the washer doesn’t interfere with the sound of the movie. Best buy I made all year.

The washer works very well and gets yours clothes clean along with your other laundry. The only thing that I really have to complain about is that since you are able to hook the washing machine up to wifi is that the module that plugs into the back of the machine should have came with it instead of us having to order the part for an additional fifty dollars .

Got this washer in May – waited til now, July, to write a realistic review .
This it works as it should. It has many options and functions to do different things…
Unfortunately, I have a few complaints/cons …
Delivery, installation& removal was quick, easy and great! The 2 men worked hard to take out my old washer and dryer & replace them with this set.
However, upon instal, we realized that the cord was not long enough to reach the outlet that my previous washer had been plugged into, so they were unable to “test” the washer & I had to order a heavy duty surge protector / extension cord.
The other issue with that is, if I have my lights on while the washer is in its wash cycle- the lights flicker… but that’s probably related to electrical 🫤
The options on the washer are cool- but I’m pretty sure the only time I can use fabric softener (the only time it will release itself during the rinse cycle), is when I program it to DEEP RINSE.
Another thing I’ve noticed OFTEN, is that if I don’t remove a washed load pretty much immediately, the clothes will 100% emit a musty smell & I’ll need to wash them again…. But I guess that happens 🤔 .
I’m really wishing that I chose to not have the impellar, buttttt that’s okay!!
All in all, it’s a decent washer, great size for an apartment and does what it’s supposed to. I pulled out the manual today and am reading through the settings / programs & that prompted me to write this review.
If anything changes, I will update my review!!

Still learning/adjusting to different features, but not fond of the ‘spritzing’ method of water addition nor not being able to lift lid while it’s filling to toss in missed items without the whole thing stopping; I can understand that feature while it’s spinning, but it’s a pain. Also noisier with that intermittent spray-fill method.

We have had the washer almost 3 weeks, we are loving it so far. GE definitely listened when people were asking for something close to the old school washers. We DON’T have to add water to balance clothes (like our last washer), this one fills like it is supposed too. We hope it works out for us long term, we also added the added warranty just in case.

I’m staying with GE washers and dryers after seeing the results. No problems with load size, setting make it easy and are labeled in bold large print for people with sight issues! Instructions are clear and informative. It’s like buying a work-horse that I need!

Glad to find a washer without all kinds of bells and whistles. Wi-fi on a washing machine – really? Only have done a couple washes but can already tell it is doing a better job than my old machine. Would say the wash cycle is a little loud but guess that is difference between a front and top end loader. Appreciate shorter wash cycle and water level options. Thought the price ended up paying was a good value.
