Defective upon delivery
Tried out the first load. The washer was so loud. I showed a video to the HD associate and they said it shouldn’t sound like that. It sounded like it was grinding. Then the dryer had scratches inside the drum as well as a few noticeable dents on the front and the side. It was also loud and would not connect to the app. Very disappointed as we had a GE Profile washer and dryer for over 14 years and just now needed to get a new set. Now dealing with more hassle of returning this defective set.

Your new washer may sound different from your prior unit because of the newer technology. Clicks, water flowing, gear sounds followed by pauses, and electric hum sounds are all part of the normal wash cycle. For help with understanding the normal sounds, please take a look at the support article on the GE Appliances website titled: "Top Load Washer - Normal Sounds". We understand that you're currently working with HD for a resolution; however, if the sound you're hearing is not listed in this article and you consider it to be abnormal, you're also welcome to schedule a service appointment for one of our qualified technicians to assess your unit. You can schedule an appointment by calling us at: 1-800-432-2737. GE_Appliances

    Nice looking and works great sometimes
    Out of balance when spinning out sometimes, the load needs to be stopped and clothes redistributed and restarted

      Never enough water. Must use deep fill option on every cycle, but this option is disabled on the “normal” cycle.

      Water may not cover the top level of the clothes. This is normal for this high efficiency washer. We recommend you review the support article on the GE Appliances website titled: "Washer – Not Enough Water; Low Water Levels". Thanks for choosing GE Appliances for your home! GE_Appliances

      Best Washer I’ve Ever Purchased
      I absolutely love my washer. I can remember my grandmother having General Electric appliances when I was a kid. Her products lasted for 10+ years. I hope to have the longevity with my washer.

              Washes but doesn't Clean
              After watching a few videos about the benefits of an impeller vs agitator, I picked the impeller. 7 loads down and I'm seeing a big problem with this decision, clothes are NOT getting cleaned. Not only is there not enough water being given to the load to even get everything wet, the pulsing action isn't creating enough friction to loosen the dirt and stains from the clothes. The only way to get the proper amount of water is to always and I do mean alway select Deep Fill. Get the AGITATOR!

              Response from GE AnswersMay 1, 2024
              We appreciate your honest feedback about your washer, and we regret to hear that this model has not met your expectations. Please know that it is normal for the water level to be low in this high-efficiency model. It's also important to note that Infusor models use the friction of the clothes/items on each other to get the best wash results. We do encourage you to ensure that you're using a high-quality detergent, using the correct amount of detergent, not overloading the unit, and that you are selecting the correct cycle for your load. If these tips do not help, please schedule service by calling 833-426-3393. Our technicians would be happy to investigate and ensure that your washer is working as it should. GE_Appliances
                Impeller, bad invention
                Where is the water. Doesn't move clothes enough with such little water.

                Response from GE_AppliancesApr 30, 2024
                We're here to support you with your washer. The Department of Energy (DOE) sets standards for washer water usage. Over the years, the amount of allowable usage has been reduced. With washers now using less water and energy, there will no longer be a wash basket full of water. Most washers are now programmed with load sensing to adjust levels based on the cycle and load size, so the amount of water used will vary. Your washer does offer a deep fill option, which adds additional water to the wash load, regardless of whether you used a manual or a load-sensing fill.
                  Love My New Washer!
                  I LOVE my new clothes washer! It is very user friendly and is already proving to be a big help in keeping up with the laundry needs of a family of five. The controls are easy to read and understand and the manual is easy to use, too.

                    I Love This Washer
                    My girlfriend and I bought this washer, along with the matching dryer, to replace a very old Kenmore 80 Series washer that needed to be replaced immediately. It's needless to say a massive upgrade and a very welcome one. It's very different from the old agitator that I'm used to, but I prefer the impeller over the agitator personally. It does make a few new sounds tha tim not used to, but they'll grow on me. It's incredibly efficient and has tons of features that I enjoy.

                        We’re so happy to hear that you’ve been enjoying the powerful, yet silent, performance of your new washing machine. We really love the diamond gray finish, and this model is packed with many fabulous features. We love the dedicated laundry juice dispenser known as SmartDispense, and tangled loads are a thing of the past thanks to Tangle Control.
                          If you love ruining your clothes, look no further
                          Both the washer and dryer will ruin your clothes and also destroy itself in the process. I’ve owned a GE washer and dryer for 2 years and I will recommend absolutely anything else. I can’t wait for this piece of Schmit to destroy itself from planned obsolescence like I know it will. The washer will sound like it’s going to rattle itself apart unless you have a PHD in clothes balancing. One extra sock on one side of the barrel and prepare for all hell to break loose in your laundry room.

                          Oh my. This is certainly not the experience we want you to have with your washer and not what we'd expect from this model. We do encourage you to ensure that your unit is level and that you're distributing your items loosely and evenly around the basket. If this does not resolve the matter, please reach out to us on any of our GE Appliances social media platforms so we can investigate this matter and assist in the best way possible! GE_Appliances

                              Washer gets stuck in the "balancing" mode frequently. Both washer and dryer are extremely loud.
