I have had this GE HE 4.5 cu steam technology (all the bells and whistles) washing machine for about 4 years and already it’s unfixable. I had my maintenance guy come and he said the part is out of stock. It’s leaking water; it sounds like a truck; you can only put a few things in at a time because it won’t spin otherwise and will forever live on rebalancing. Don’t buy it unless you want to have to change washers every 4 years after spending hundreds of dollars. I am switching brands and lo...

Worst Machine Ever
I have to say I am very disappointed with my washer. I bought this pair of washer and dryer combo. I have had nothing but problems with this washer. First I had issues with computer on it 2 yrs after purchase. I had go replace it. Then months later I had the plastic shocks break 3 broken. Now the shocks broke again causing the drum to Crack and leak water from below and rubber boot for door. Now I have to buy new washer because this washer broke down and will cost to much to repair.

Doesn't Last, Avoid Buying
All four shock absorbers failed at the same time after 5 years. I've never overloaded the washer, and I doubt I've even got it past 50% capacity. I'm only washing for myself. So, very mild use one-a-week compared to most -- and the machine was/is as level as I could humanly get it. When I was replacing the shocks, I found two small pieces of metal that I'm hoping isn't from the spider arm banging around when the shocks failed mid spin cycle. It probably is, and I highly doubt the washer will la...

Love my GE Washer
We’ve had our GE front load washer since 2019, and it’s been a reliable appliance for our growing family. From starting as a family of three and expanding to four, plus hosting additional family members throughout the years, this washer has seen a lot of use, and it’s held up remarkably well. In terms of performance, the washer consistently delivers clean clothes. Whether it’s daily loads or larger ones after family visits, it handles everything we throw at it. The machine is also relatively qu...

The worst of the worst
This is the worst washing machine I’ve ever owned. I also own the matching dryer and it’s terrible, too. Nothing clean properly and I have to precook/wash most clothes beforehand, constantly having issues with it not being balanced and I don’t overload the washer. I’ve owned it since summer of 2019 and it lasted less than a year before having problems. I’ll never own another GE.

planned obsolescence
Like all other brand home appliances. This machine will last about 4 to 6 year in normal use. Not trouble free though. leaky door seal, cranky switches and spin cycle hiccups. Unnecessary features only makes repairs more difficult. If parts are available or not too expensive.

Buyer beware -
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This machine sounds like a jet engine during the spin cycle. We had multiple repair people out here to repair and we were told there’s nothing they can do.. The washer is less than five years old, and out of warranty. We need to play white noise and close doors to keep the baby asleep while doing laundry. The repair people tell me it’s a common issue, but it doesn’t affect its ability to clean clothes. Buyer beware

AWFUL!!!
this is the worst washer I've ever owned...and I've only had 3 in the 35+ years of having my own. if i could of easily returned it shortly after buying it, about a month, i would have!!! You can't just put it in you car and take it back. It was hard enough getting it in and down stairs. I've just dealt with it. I've have the computer board changed and other stuff but it still does it!! it has this vibration feature that is so so so sensitive that it's a PAIN in the tushy! it won't finish unti...

Great Product!!
I just moved out of state and was in desperate need for a new washer/dryer as I was unable to bring my old ones with me. After doing a little research, I decided to buy this model because of the positive reviews and price. I've had my washer for less than a month now, but here are a few pro's and con's from the first few loads. Pros: Outward appearance- this machine is sharp. I got mine in white and I love the way it looks. The top display is elegant and very easy to use. There are a lot of o...
