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.

AMAZING Washer

AKeefe1171 3/30/2021

This washer is great if you are washing daily. It can fit large bedspread's as well. I love the drying feature that it has on it as well. The drum will air dry after each load to ensure the washer does not end up smelling. You can also put up to 50 some ounces of detergent in so you don't have to keep adding. It is also very quiet. Overall, this is an amazing washer all round.

Overall, what we expected.

monkey4390 3/29/2021

Does a good job cleaning. Learned to really appreciate the Smart Dispense feature. Only reason not 5 stars is its inability to spin dry small loads. IE: if washing 1 pair of coveralls, it comes out dripping wet (I'm assuming too sensitive to imbalance), have to add more articles of laundry then it seems to do fine.

Saki8888 3/29/2021

One Of The Best Washers!

SCDemanett 3/23/2021

This washer has so many features and is so large it's difficult to find a place to start but I think the UltraFresh Vent system/feature is probably the best place to start as it solves one of the main problems with a front load washer. This system virtually automates the process of drying the washer without leaving the door open to help ensure the washer doesn't start to stink inside, though it does take about 8 hours if I recall correctly. Next up and one of those things that you wonder why it's not on everything and been included sooner and that is the Microban coated surfaces. This coating helps ensure mold and other unwanted things don't grow on damp surfaces like the detergent reservoir, the door seal, and the drain hose. Another feature I really like is the interior light, it really helps to see inside the washer. This washer has a lot of washing options and cycles and so far they have all performed wonderful and as expected. The machine is overall very quiet, however, the spin cycle can be very loud even when not on the highest setting. The smart features are nice I like being notified when the machine is almost done, done, and done for 30 minutes. I do wish I could control more things from the app like starting the UltraFresh Vent System especially since it takes about 8 hours it would be nice to make that part of my smart home's good night routine. I was disappointed to find out the washer is made in the PRC, I wasn't able to find this out before it arrived and I found the sticker so it will be something I look into more next time and contributed to my 4-star rating along with the underwhelming smart features, though those can hopefully be fixed via software update(s). It does have a 10-year limited tub warranty and GE's service record is very good if not the best in the industry so I will give them the benefit of the doubt on this and time will tell. I am overall very happy with this washing machine and look forward to many years of trouble-free operation.

Cleans well

src123 3/19/2021

While this washer does clean clothes well, the additional features seem overrated. 1 Step Wash + Dry only works on extra small loads (4-5 underwear or 1-2 shirts or 6 pair of socks, for example), and the blue antimicrobial ring holds a lot of lint and moisture.

Vibrates too much on spin cycle

Peter TW 3/18/2021

The washer is balanced but when it goes into spin cycle it vibrates excessively, more than 1 inch. Especially when it slows down in the spin cycle. Balanced it twice and still vibrates. It is on a pedestal but that shouldn't matter.

The washer is cool 3/17/2021

We use HE powder so it is still good. Super quiet, and the fresh vent feature made the interior bone dry. Still smells new. Tip: just like running hot water at the sink before a dishwasher cycle, I suggest getting a double tap and a drain hose to the floor drain at the hot water tap for the clothes washer. That way you can get the hot water hot before the washer fills.

My 2 favorite features

Hooli 3/14/2021

I like this washer alot but the 2 things I like best are the large soap dispenser and the venting system. Now I just load the washer, start it up and walk away knowing the proper amount of soap is being used. Not too much or too little. When I'm done using the washer for the day, I run the venting system to dry the washer so I can shut the door and not worry about it smelling.

Great features, but a vibrating monster for us

Andrew602 3/10/2021

We bought this a year ago with matching dryer and pedestals and had them professionally installed. The washer vibrates like crazy and virtually never runs properly balanced. We had GE out under warranty and they confirmed through diagnostics that it was frequently out of balance confirming our complaint. However it runs blank loads perfectly and passed all diagnostic tests in a balanced manner. Regardless of the type of loads, number of items in the load or setting we run, it usually vibrates like crazy. We have taken care to review the operating instructions and occasionally we run an inappropriate load, but normally we fall within what would be considered a balanced appropriate load (clothing of same type, not mixing heavy towels and T-shirts, etc). I literally cannot run this washer at night because it will wake everyone up. I can't decide if I will just throw in the towel and purchase a top loader or if I'll wait for it to walk itself through a wall. If GE has a "keep customer happy via exchange or buy back" program I'd love to hear from them. I'd be happy to sell back at a prorated amount and buy something else. Piece of garbage this thing is.

Cleveland AB 3/10/2021

We recently replaced a 15 yo GE Washer with this one. I was skeptical, because I was never a huge fan of the other one. What a great surprise this thing is. Smart dispense, fresh vent, WiFi connectivity and an accurate cycle time countdown are my favorite features. Clothes are clean and the capacity is enormous. I read some reviews where folks thought it was loud, but that is not my experience. I am very happy with this machine
