Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Great features and very quiet

AMCS2CWO 6/15/2020

I have only used this product for about 24 hours, and it has taken some time to get the hang of it. The first couple of times that I used the dryer I found that the clothes were still damp after the first cycle. I had the dryer vent cleaned prior to installation, so that wasn't the issue. After I set the control settings to "More Dry", it seemed to help the issue. It still isn't perfect, but I think it may just take a little more adjustment with the settings to get a completely dry load. I am not drying big loads of laundry, and ecoDry is not set on the machine. Otherwise, it seems to be a good product.

Casey Kaye 6/11/2020

I have had the dryer for about a month now and I'm really happy with it. Aside from the beautiful look, it performs excellent. Fast dry times, and our clothes come out wrinkle free. On occasion my husband shirts are wrinkled after drying them because I'm a lazy laundry folder but the steam fresh cycle will freshen up his shirt quickly. Buy as a pair with washing machine and it even smart links to set the best dry cycle for when the wash is complete. Also the app alerts you when the clothes are done which I like because sometimes I'll get caught up in something. That feature is especially good for the washer since you don't want to leave wet clothes in a front load machine. Also holds a good amount of clothing or blankets/towels. And the light inside is probably one of my favorite parts. Super Bright which makes it easy to ensure I got everything. Overall super satisfied with this purchase.

LynneT2020 6/9/2020

The dryer accomodates large loads and has so many variables in settings it's a breeze to use. The lint screen is extremely easy to clean, also. I've also had occasion to use the de-wrinkling setting and it works extremely well. My only complaint is the signal sound is very low and I can't hear it from another room.

Good Dryer But Lint Filter is Poor

cheerfulagent 6/9/2020

Great dryer, but it is a little tricky with a mixed load to get everthing dry (especially jeans or cargo waistbands) so I just use the timed setting when in doubt. Lint Filter Cons: Per the manual, you are supposed to clean the lint filter by running your fingers across the filter until clean. Simply put, that doesn't work. It's cumbersome, messy and you can't access all the lint to clean out. Although not reccommended, you can open the lint filter and clean it out much more efficiently and quicker but unfortunately the plastic clips that you have to unfasten to open the dryer were not designed for continuous movement and therefore they broke off within a month. I do about 2 loads a day. Since the filter is held in place by the unit this isn't a big deal but still a design flaw that should have been considered on such a high end unit. Hopefully a new design will be issued and sent to all who have this deisgn. I noticed lint builds up in the well quickly so I have cleaned it out twice with a damp cloth. Also excessive lint builds up on the interior door where the lint filter is located. I have read that using rubbing alocohol can help especially if using dryer sheets (which I do) and I may try that if GE concurs. Pictures attached of lint filter and door with build up. Any suggestions from consumers or manufacturer is welcomed.

Khucks03 6/8/2020

This is the best washer and dryer I have ever used!!! My clothes wash and dry so quickly and come out smelling so fresh. The dryer produces a small amount of lint compared to my old dryer. This is my first front loader and I doubt I will ever go back to a top loader. I love the ventilation feature to prevent odor and mildew of the washing machine.

This dryer gets drying done quickly, quietly and efficiently. The feature that notifies you when it's close to being done, or that it's been done for "x" minutes is very helpful. Would buy this again in an instant.

Looked all around for washers and dryers. Found this one with matching washer bought the pedestals too. Was spendy but don't let that hold you back, I am not regretting it one bit. Go ahead and splurg on this set you get more for your money when you do. The washer complements this dryer and they communicate together. There are so many features when you buy both. Love it! It has not held me up waiting for clothes to finish drying so I can put the next load in. Its READY.

Excellent Cleaning and Plenty of Features

Oakley0 5/11/2020

We purchased these machines to upgrade and replace our 10 year old front load set that we had of another brand. These machines look amazing and have so many features. We received these and got them set up and loads going as fast as we could. This dryer dries cloths faster than our previous and is so easy to use. The unit has plenty of features to dry any load you throw at it. The dryer was easy to set up. The Doors on the Dryer and Washer can be Reversed and the process is very easy because of how our laundry room is set up it was a nice feature. I reversed the doors and found out the machines are solid. I had to call support to get help setting up the SmartHQ App, it was an issues with how my cell phone WiFi was set up. I have to say the support was probably some of the best I have received in a while. The first ring someone answered and helped with the issue quick. The SmartHQ App is simple but gives you the ability to see the status of your laundry and turn the Extended Tumble on if you need. The app also shows how many loads has been completed for the last 7 days. I highly recommend this Dryer your laundry will smell so fresh.

Great Investment - Even Better Dryer

mdr0590 4/15/2020

This dryer was purchased to replace a very old, inefficient unit. When I say that there is a world of difference, that is an understatement. The features are outstanding - I don't know how I lived without having the dryer notify me when clothes are almost done and actually done! Dry cycles are frequently faster than estimated, and everything comes out completely dry. The unit does not shake or make too much noise, and I am still playing with all of the different options - each one more useful than the last. I would highly recommend this dryer.

WLDII 4/15/2020

I love the large capacity and features of my new dryer. I am disappointed in its ability to get clothes, even smaller loads, completely dry on the first try. I feel like I'm selecting the correct settings, but I almost always have to run it through the cycle a 2nd time. I assume that the sensors are trying to protect the clothes, erring on the side of dampness. Also, the dryer filet is difficult to clean and the plastic broke after two weeks of use.

Chels5678 4/14/2020

It's a pretty great dryer so far. Only a few minor complaints. It can sometimes be inconsistent on drying. Some of the clothes will come out completely dry with others still being damp. Doesn't happen every time but a little disappointed in that. Also not a fan of the lint trap. Every time a load is done there is debris/lint on top of the trap that I have to remove before unloading so as not to get it all over my clothes. Minor issues here. Otherwise it's a great dryer with great features, the WiFi ability being my favorite

Awful quality

A Team 4/14/2020

The first day we had it, the door front fell off. Then after two weeks, the clip on the lint catcher broke off. Good heavens! Where's the quality!? When I remove the lint catcher, I can see loads of lint below the lint catcher lining the inside of the dryer. It's as if a good deal of the lint is bypassing the catcher! I had to use a special tool to get all the lint out. That's with me even using the lint catcher! Awful!

Hoping this isn't going to become a problem

Valeriej 3/27/2020

I love mostly everything about this dryer so far. However, the control cover panel is loose. The top corner above the power button sticks out instead of being flat like all the other sides. You can push it and it moves in and out. I'm afraid it will eventually affect the use of the electronics underneath and/or something will get caught on it and rip it off. A service tech came out and said it's a design flaw and the only thing he could do is submit pics to the engineer and see if they change it. I'm not so sure. I don't recall noticing this when looking at it in the stores. Once we are no longer social distancing from the pandemic, I'll go to the store to view it in person. I feel like he just kind of blew me off. Wondering if anyone else's dryer has that issue? According to him, they all would be designed like that.
