Terrible, noise level is very loud.
Would absolutely not recommend. Not sure what is a better option. It is obnoxiously loud during wash cycle, as others have reported. Even with laundry room door shut can hear the intermittent grinding sound as agitator cycles on and off throughout the house. Similar in sound and level as videos for this model online. Have upstairs laundry so could never run at night due to noise. I have a 25 year old Kenmore this was to replace, now thinking about trying to repair it instead. Was quiet, r...

GE Definitely Missed the mark on this one!
I just purchased this washer on 9/5/2025 and so far, I’m not impressed. The tub is large (which I like), but the water fill levels are off in measurement so I always run the washer at the max fill level AND hit the deep-level wash, otherwise the tub wouldn’t have enough water for my loads. Secondly, when I add fabric softener to the designated holder, at the end of the wash, fabric softener is still running out of the cup and on to the clean clothes. I’ve even tried using my downey ball..the fab...

Please don’t tell me this was made in America
I wish I had seen the review from boondocklady before I purchased this piece of crap, I wish I had taken the $$$$ I spent on this & had my 15 yr old machine repaired!!! I totally agree with “ boondocklady” ( Nov year ago review) After the cycle is complete, the clothes are wet to the point I would have to spend 3x more energy to get them dry. JUST SPIN THE CLOTHES P,EASE. Would not purchase again or recommend this to anyone

Waste of money and lost a loyal customer
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Waste of money. Bought brand new. Didn't wash right from day one. Everything loads right and follow directions. Them various loads bunch up, big and small. Have to restack, drain and spin again. Called out ge appliance tech. Said nothing was wrong. Said put it on delicate and solve the problem bc they put low water from manufacturing. Basically we put all their recommendations into place. Nothing improved. No other options. Never buying ge agai...

Garbage
Don’t buy it! My Whirlpool washing machine lasted over 20 years, never needing service. After about 7 months, this GE washing machine started making new noises (different than the extraordinarily loud clanks & clunks it has made since my very 1st load & every load since). Got a serviceman to come out 2 weeks before my warranty expires & it needs new parts! It’s less than 1 year old! Admittedly, I do about 2 loads of wash every 2-3 days… is that normal? High? I don’t know, but my Whirlpool handle...

Love the extra spin cycle. Less dryer time!
We love the large capacity of this machine. Its just my wife and myself now. Sometimes we only do one tto two loads a week.

Noisy, Poorly Designed Pile of Junk
I'm not going to say avoid GE appliances all together, but I will say, do NOT buy this one. At this price point, it's just an embarrassing option. From excessive noise to unclear controls to even incomplete instructions, you can do far better than this unit. This pile of junk just strikes me as a machine GE threw together before a deadline.

New GE washer for my mother
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought my brand-new GE washer, which looks sleek. I am barely on my first load of laundry and it sounds better than my last washer. Hopefully, it works well for a long period of time.

GEA appliance washing
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Such an amazing washer, so quiet and so efficient. We bought this washer, not too long ago and it works amazing. My wife loves it, especially with the big loads like sheets and blankets.

Only good feature is the lid doesn't lock in spin
Junk! This is what I think. These machines are so loud, while in wash cycle, while changing gears, spin cycle, rinse cycle and shut down. I realize cars are much more expensive by comparison, but a car can be made and you can't hear it operating and the car is not in your house. I was told most washers are in basement, so they are not as noticeable. Not true! I wanted it gone, immediately and offered to upgrade but was told the upgrade is the same machine (junk) with more electronic So so disap...
