What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise the washer and dryer for exceptional cleaning power, innovative smart automation, and quiet operation. The automatic detergent dispensing system is called transformative, eliminating guesswork and simplifying routines. Large capacity easily handles king-size comforters and bulky loads. Users appreciate energy efficiency, intuitive controls, and the attractive sapphire blue finish. However, some report premature failures like control board malfunctions and leaks within 1-3 years, with frustration over support. Despite these concerns, most customers consider the machines worthwhile investments.

I bought this set in 2022 when I bought my house. In April 2026 the control panel went out, of course there’s no warranty so I had to contact a local service company to come out and they said it was the control panel. On May 15, the control panel was replaced. It is now July 31, 2026 and I have to get a new control board. So I’m going to be without my washing machine for another 3 to 4 weeks. I barely used the washing machine between May and July. I used it about every other week to do laundry f...
less than 2 years old and its not working
Purchased in September 2024. Yesterday the door locked our clothes in it and now theres no power going to the unit. This is under normal use. only 4 people in the household. We switched from Samsung thinking ok made in America,let's support American made and get away from Samsung because we had 2 sets of the Samsung top load . They lasted 4 years . To be fair the dryer still worked on the first set but we wanted to buy both new. Until our issue is resolved I give them a thumbs down. Calling to...

Avoid This Machine: Fatal Design Flaw Causes Flood
If you like playing detective with a flashlight in your laundry room or mopping up puddles every time you wash a large load of clothes, this GE front-loader is the machine for you. Otherwise, stay far away. Starting 6-8 months in, this machine has been leaking water onto the floor from the front bottom-left corner. I called their technicians since it was under warranty and they said they couldn't find the cause - worthless. I thought I could live with it but it has only gotten worse and worse an...

Drain pump turns on randomly
Bought this washer March 2025 and it has been a little over a year now. The washer drain pump would turn on at random times, trying to drain (an emtpy tub). I read online that I can unplug the washer for 15 minutes to reset itself. It did turn off the pump, however, the issue is still there. A service tech came by today and replaced the control board and said it should solve the issue. He ran a quick wash cycle and left before it finished. A few minutes later, the washer had an issue/error of "...

Designed to break
We bought this washer 3 years ago. Our warranty expired in December of 2025. The first part that broke was the inverter. It cost $450 for parts and labor. The repair guy told us that he fixes these a lot and like clock work they usually break in the 3rd year. He also told us that since the inverter went out that the control board was likely next. He even offered to come and do it without charging labor if it happened within 3 months of the first repair. Sure enough, a week before the 3 months wa...

Immediate problems and noone to contact
We have had issues with the washer ever since we purchased it about a year ago. We have had technicians come in 4-5 times already. We have have been out of a washer for 3 weeks. There is no human to connect to at GE - its a loop of automated calls. Worst ever decision to go with GE appliance. Never again!

Do Not Buy This! Super Unreliable Product
This machine was great for the first year and a half, then the control board broke, just in time to be outside of the 1 year full product warranty. Talking to the repairman he said this is very common with this product (and is a close to $500 repair!) save yourself the money and headache and buy something reliable instead.

Not Reliable
We’ve had this washer and dryer set for exactly 1 year. Washer is extremely loud. Parts on it are plastic and cheap. Now door won’t lock and service will cost approximately the price of a new unit! Service tech said he’s been seeing multiple issues with this brand. Would not recommend.

Amazing Job
The two installers who came to set up my washer and dryer did a spectacular job from start to finish. They were incredibly professional, quick, and made sure everything was connected and working perfectly before leaving. Based on this great experience, I would highly recommend buying your appliances from Lowe's!
