What Customers Are Saying

The product appears to be a high-quality front-loading washing machine with excellent cleaning performance, large capacity, and energy efficiency. Customers generally praise its ease of use, quietness, and overall quality. However, a small number have reported issues like excessive noise, spin cycle problems, and premature failure. Despite these isolated negative experiences, the overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive.

No support

My major complaint is that I bought the washing machine from a big box store 15 minutes from my house, and now that I need support from GE, I learn that they do not have any service support for the area I live in, nor did they offer to give me any companies who could offer me support. If a company can’t offer service support to consumers who live in certain geographical areas, then they should not sell their product to those consumers.

Too young to die.

Would Not Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ours was made in July 2019. It came with the house we bought in 2024. It's November 2025, and the door leaks, it smells like burning rubber, and the bearings are shot. Our appliance guy says it's not worth fixing. It was alright while it lasted, but 6 years from the date of manufacture is not enough.

DON'T BUY. JUNK PRODUCTS.

Would Not Recommend

Not happy with this product. Would not recommend it to anyone. Had it for less than 5 years and the drum has bent out of round and destroyed the front gasket so now it leaks water. Very poorly made. Look on site for parts and tub is discontinued. Have gone on many sites looking for parts and everyone says that the drums are bent. Think you knew about the problem but never fixed it. Or offered the customers a solution to fix your mistakes.

Washer is junk!

Would Not Recommend

Elderly mother in law had washer installed 2 years ago. Started making rattling sounds, appliance repair man said ball bearings were shot. Not worth to repair. I could not find any warranty information on the website. GE has gone down hill, their products are junk now. Won’t be buying anymore!!

Don't buy this model.

Would Not Recommend

This unit is very unstable. The feet of the machine constantly need to be adjusted. If the feet are out of line (at least once a month they need adjusting) the machine shakes like crazy, makes a very loud rattling sound and shakes the whole house. It sucks that I've been using this machine for five years and the rental company i rent the house from refused to provide an owners manual when we moved in. It was brand new machine and five years later the machine needs replacing due to the constant u...

Horrible machine

I am glad they discontinued this model, so no one has to go through the nightmare of owning this machine again. I purchased my home in 2019 through the builder and had them install this washer and matching dryer. The washer vibrates and shakes my house and has shifter several times during a spin cycle. The machine vibrated so much that the plastic latch broke and the machine was stuck in lock. The rubber seal and glass on the door wore out within the first year. GE appliances is pure junk.

GE should continue making this model.

Great washer and takes up less space than the other models. Motor is very strong during wash and spin. Door needs to be open after use to prevent odors.

Terrible washer - Do NOT buy

Would Not Recommend

We purchased this washer less than 3 years ago. As others have mentioned, it is loud and has balance and odor issues, but that isn't the worst part. Now, whenever we try to wash a load of clothes, the washer starts the cycle, then stops 1-2 minutes later. It does this continually through the entire washing cycle.

I’ve had a good experience in the past with GE but after 3 years with my brand new front loader it broke down. Technician stated it’s too expensive to replace parts and labor and I’m better off buying a new one.
