About GE Service Contracts

This profile has not been claimed by the company. See reviews below to learn more or submit your own review.

GE appliances come with a standard manufacturer’s warranty, but the company also offers extended protection through Bodewell Care Protection Plans. Administered by Assurant, these plans cover functional part failures resulting from normal use. Coverage is available for individual appliances, so you can customize your protection plan.

Visit www.ge.com
Pros
  • Choice of multi‑year or renewable plans
  • Includes up to $300 for spoiled food
  • Plans are transferable to new owners
Cons
  • Administered by a third party (Assurant)
  • Claims capped at the appliance's original price

GE Service Contracts coverage

Unlike traditional home warranties that cover a mix of systems and appliances from various brands, GE Service Contracts (via Bodewell) are designed specifically for GE appliances. You enroll each specific appliance in a plan.

Plans typically cover mechanical and electrical breakdowns that occur after the manufacturer's warranty expires. Key benefits vary by plan but generally include:

  • Power surge protection: Covered from day one.
  • Food spoilage reimbursement: Up to $300 per incident for refrigerators/freezers.
  • Laundry reimbursement: Up to $50 if your washer/dryer isn't fixed or replaced within 14 days.

Plans

Bodewell Care Protection Plans are typically available for GE appliances up to 15 to 20 years old, depending on the plan, appliance model and unit condition.

Eligible products include:

  • Refrigerators and freezers
  • Microwaves
  • Dishwashers
  • Washers and dryers
  • Ranges, cooktops and ovens
  • Water filtration systems
  • Air conditioners
  • Dehumidifiers

GE Service Contracts cost

Pricing isn’t fixed across appliances. The plan price appears on your Benefits Summary Page and depends on your product, model and plan type.

In general, expect to pay between $78 and $250 per year per appliance. You can pay upfront for a multi-year term (typically one to five years) or choose a monthly payment plan. You might receive a discount if you purchase coverage for multiple appliances at once.

The following table shows the average annual cost to cover common appliances, based on quotes accurate at the time of publishing.

You can find more specific estimates on the Bodewell Care Protection Plan website.

GE Service Contracts coverage exclusions and limits

GE Service Contracts typically exclude:

  • Cosmetic damage such as dents, scratches and rust
  • Consumables (for example, lightbulbs, filters, batteries, shelves and knobs)
  • Failures covered by recall or the manufacturer’s warranty
  • Damage from misuse, abuse, improper installation or unauthorized repairs
  • Preexisting defects or conditions noted before coverage began
  • Damage from certain “acts of God” and external events beyond specified limits
  • Accessories such as TV stands, mounts and furniture

Plans also have dollar limits. Liability is typically limited to the original purchase price of the appliance. If a repair costs more than the appliance is worth, they may offer a replacement or a cash settlement instead.

Be sure to review the full terms and conditions of your contract for the exact coverage, limits and exclusions that apply to your plan.

GE Service Contracts claims

You can submit claims 24/7 by visiting the Bodewell website or calling the number listed in your plan documents. You’ll provide your contract number and ZIP code, describe the issue and work with Bodewell to schedule service with an authorized technician.

GE Service Contracts FAQ

What is Bodewell?

Bodewell is the consumer-facing brand for GE's extended service contracts. The plans are administered by Assurant, a large insurance provider that partners with major appliance manufacturers.

What does a GE Service Contract cover?

Plans can cover functional part failures, parts and labor, and benefits like food spoilage or power‑surge protection. These are subject to the exclusions and limits listed in your Benefits Summary and the specific plan’s terms.

Can I cancel my GE Service Contract, and do I get a refund?

Yes. You can cancel by contacting Bodewell or following the cancellation process in your contract terms. Most plans offer a full refund if you cancel within 30 days with no claims. Afterward, refunds are generally prorated and may include an administrative fee as allowed by your state.

When does coverage start?

Some benefits (like accidental damage, power surge, food spoilage and laundry reimbursement) may begin on the plan purchase date. Full functional part coverage usually takes effect after the manufacturer’s warranty expires or for failures the manufacturer doesn’t cover.

Who performs the repairs?

Repairs are carried out by GE Appliances Factory Service technicians or authorized third-party servicers so you know that genuine GE parts are used.

    Horrible customer experience. First they misdiagnosed the issue with my dishwasher. Then they didn’t want to schedule me for another week. I fought them for a sooner time only to have them cancel 2.5 hrs into my service window after planning my whole day around this. They wanted to reschedule me for another week. This issue is still not resolved. Completely disrespectful to customers’ daily lives.

      Allstate/SquareTrade sent Bodewell to handle warranty repairs on our dishwasher and built-in oven. Toni repaired the dishwasher successfully, and we had no complaint about him. However, the separate oven crew never arrived. Bodewell later claimed Toni had been expected to repair both appliances and rescheduled the oven. When technician Dave arrived, he immediately argued that the oven was out of warranty and that Bodewell no longer worked with Allstate. After about 15 minutes, he found the authorization in his own notes. He then removed the oven door, claimed our cabinet had been built around it, and refused to inspect or diagnose the oven unless we immediately cut a permanent section from our cabinetry.

      The opening was cut specifically for this oven before Nebraska Furniture Mart professionally installed it. Dave refused to contact a supervisor, review installation specifications, or explain why the two-person crew originally scheduled could not lift it out. The interaction became confrontational, and he was asked to leave. Bodewell initially apologized, said we should not have been instructed to cut our cabinet, and rescheduled Toni. On the appointment date, Bodewell canceled because of our encounter with Dave and said it would no longer service our home. Toni was not present during that encounter, and another representative refused to connect us with management.

      We did not refuse service; we refused undocumented permanent damage to our cabinetry. Our oven remains inoperable after overheating and displaying a cooling-fan error. Based on the missed appointment, Dave’s conduct, the demand to damage our cabinet, and Bodewell canceling service after we complained, I cannot recommend this company.

      Experience with Bodewell Service has been terrible and still ongoing. We have a GE washer/dryer combo that leaked and has been completely inoperable now for 5 weeks. Bodewell technicians no-showed 4/5 appointments which are all scheduled a week+ apart. The one time a technician did show up, they tried to charge us +$500 for a warranty repair, was rude, and then left standing water in the unit when he concluded he couldn’t fix it. We will not be buying any future GE appliances for fear that the warranty will lead to this neglect.

      Do not ever trust Bodewell Warranty Service to protect or repair your appliances. They do not care about fixing your issues; they care about dragging out the process to avoid fulfilling their financial obligations. My refrigerator stopped working, and instead of doing the right thing and replacing a clearly broken machine, Bodewell intentionally engaged in a stall tactic. They sent technicians to my house five separate times. Each visit felt like a deliberate attempt to delay the inevitable.

      To make matters worse, the appliance leaked water onto my floor three times, causing potential property damage. Their brilliant solution? They just advised us to turn off the main water line to the fridge. Because of their absolute incompetence and refusal to issue a replacement right away, my family was left completely without water or ice for 4 whole months. When they finally gave up after the fifth visit and agreed to replace the refrigerator, the nightmare still wasn't over. It took them an agonizing 3 weeks just to process the payment after agreeing to do so. And the ultimate slap in the face? They didn't even cover the full cost of a new fridge. They only paid out a "depreciation value," forcing me to come out of pocket for $600 just to replace an appliance that should have been fully covered by my warranty. A horrible experience from a garbage company. Avoid Bodewell at all costs unless you want to spend months being stressed out and broke!

      My GE appliance, that I had to finance, broke within the warranty period. Their contracted service company keeps postponing the service call over and over. There's no human you can talk to, no number to call. I have a feeling that if they ever do show up, they'll claim that whatever is broke with my 5 year old, 2000 dollar fridge is not covered under warranty. These companies make cheap garbage, charge you arm and leg, and fail to honor the warranty, and there is nothing the average person can do about it.

      In my experience GE appliance Profile series Microwave is highly failure-prone. I have replaced 4 microwaves in 9 years. I am forced to buy a GE microwave as the mounting bracket in the kitchen is from GE and works only for GE microwave and I do not want to drill more holes in the wall. Even though I ordered the same model number of microwave oven, the top mounting hole locations are different and had to drill holes in my cabinet under which the microwave is fitted. The service experience is very bad as they are highly inexperienced and make multiple trips to service the microwave. Would not recommend GE microwaves at all.

      Terrible experience with Bodewell Repair. Refrigerator under warranty, motor replaced…created more problems-burned the interior of refer, freezer stopped working, noise became louder than before repair. Multiple trips managed to mask the noise which sounds like it is going to explode. Now the refrigerator runs continuously and noise is steadily increasing again. Very unhappy with the quality of the appliance and the repair service. I gave them many chances to make it right, they insist on needing another service tech come out.

      I would never recommend GE Bodewell based on my experience. My refrigerator/freezer has had ongoing issues since December 2025. It took multiple service visits before it was finally "fixed" on Christmas Eve morning, which was already a frustrating and lengthy process. Unfortunately, only seven months later, the refrigerator stopped working again. When the technician came out, he informed us that the original repair had not been completed properly, which is why all of the parts and labor were still covered under warranty. That was an admission that the initial repair was never truly resolved. On August 17, another technician came out to repair the freezer. However, after the visit, we still have no ice, and now the refrigerator portion is not cooling properly. Instead of fixing the problem, it feels like the appliance was left in worse condition than before.

      To make matters worse, the earliest follow-up appointment available was a full week later. Despite explaining the situation, GE Bodewell's customer service repeatedly told us there was nothing they could do to get someone out sooner. Being without a properly functioning refrigerator for that long is unacceptable, especially when the issue stems from previous unsuccessful repairs. I am currently very pregnant and caring for a young child, making this situation even more difficult. Reliable refrigeration is not a luxury; it's a necessity. The combination of repeated failed repairs, poor communication, lack of urgency, and inadequate customer service has been incredibly disappointing. After this experience, I will never purchase another GE appliance again. Save yourself the frustration and look elsewhere.

      I just had a technician come to my home to look at my dishwasher. My appointment was scheduled for this coming Wednesday instead of today (Monday). Anyway, after trying to explain to him that I no longer needed the service, he gave me a lot of attitude that I found to be very unprofessional; he was literally getting sassy with me while I was trying to explain to him why I was confused about the schedule conflict.

      We have been dealing with Bray Scarff and Bodewell since early April 2026 and have never experienced such incompetence by all involved. Our Cafe Dishwasher was delivered brand new with the top drawer (glass drawer) not coming out all the way. We thought that was the way it was supposed to work. When we found out it wasn't we called Bray Scarff and Bodewell to have it repaired. Ahead of the scheduled maintenance, GE sent us two brand new rails to be installed. Four appointments later and hours on the phone trying to explain the issue, the rails have not been installed.

      The technicians first said it wasn't under warranty and we had to pay, then they said it's not the rails. Instead, they gave us a bottle of citric acid to clean our rails, because you know it is the customer’s fault. So, my advice to anyone with a Bodewell service need, say three Hail Marys and four Our Fathers and just maybe they will fix it -- but I seriously doubt it. I really lay the blame at the feet of GE for continuing to look the other way when there have been repeated customer reports of non-existent/very poor service.

      0 STARS — HORRIBLE WARRANTY SERVICE FROM BODEWELL & GE PROFILE. I wish I could give ZERO stars. I contacted Bodewell while my GE Profile range was still under warranty because the oven fan was not working. A technician came to repair the fan. While he was there, he decided to update the software—and that is when everything went wrong. During the software update, the control panel was completely burned out.

      Bodewell then ordered a replacement control panel, and the technician returned approximately 10 days later to install it. Unfortunately, after the replacement, my range has continued to malfunction. The control panel works randomly, and the buttons frequently do not respond at all. I contacted Bodewell again. They sent another technician, who could not figure out what was wrong. He asked me to record a video demonstrating the problem and send it to Bodewell. I did exactly that and provided the video as requested.

      Bodewell then scheduled another service appointment—only to CANCEL IT AT THE LAST MINUTE and tell me that "everything is working as intended." Seriously? My range was working before the technician attempted the software update. The control panel was damaged during the service, a replacement panel was installed, and the problems have continued ever since. I have documented the issue, provided videos, cooperated with every request, and made myself available for multiple appointments. Instead of taking responsibility and properly diagnosing the problem, Bodewell simply canceled my appointment and dismissed my concerns.

      This is NOT what "warranty service" should look like. I have spent countless hours dealing with technicians, replacement parts, repeated service calls, and a range that still does not work properly—all while the company now claims that the malfunctioning controls are "working as intended." If this is how Bodewell and GE handle warranty issues, I strongly recommend thinking twice before purchasing a GE Profile appliance. Bodewell and GE Profile: I am asking you to stand behind your warranty, properly diagnose the problem, and FIX the appliance you damaged during your service visit. ZERO STARS — Extremely disappointing warranty service and customer support.

      Hotpoint/GE appliances. Urgent: Frustration and disappointment with Protection Plan and Appliance Purchase. I am extremely frustrated and disappointed with the protection plan and Washer and Dryer appliance purchase we made through Home Depot, Bodewell and GE/ Highpoint. We have made several appointments with the manufacturer and each time they send out a different technician who can't fix, won't fix, or has to order parts. This cycle repeats itself week after week, leaving us in a state of constant frustration and disappointment.

      This issue remains unresolved and at this point, the manufacturer protection plan feels like a total joke. The leaks in the property caused by the appliance have become a serious problem, and the tenant is continually forced to stay home, waiting for the technician to arrive and fix the issue. I urgently need Home Depot to step in and provide assistance with this matter. As the purchase was made through them. I would appreciate a little more support in resolving this ongoing issue.

I have to accept a five hour window for service and therefore take off work, yet the company could care less about your time and the product you purchased.

      To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to express my extreme disappointment with both the quality of my GE dryer and the warranty service process. I purchased a new GE dryer (Model GTD58EBSV1WS) from Best Buy in October 2025. Less than a year later, the dryer experienced a major mechanical failure. The rear drum assembly detached completely and fell into the bottom of the dryer, rendering the appliance unusable. I have attached photographs documenting the failure. What is equally frustrating is the warranty service process. Best Buy informed me that all warranty work must be handled through GE. GE then referred me to Bodewell Appliance Repair. The earliest available appointment was nearly 20 days away.

      This is in the Dallas–Fort Worth area, one of the largest metropolitan regions in the country. A simple Google search for dryer repair returns numerous companies offering same-day or next-day service, yet GE warranty customers are expected to wait almost three weeks for assistance. As a consumer, this raises two serious concerns: A major mechanical failure on a dryer that is less than one year old suggests a significant quality issue. A 20-day wait for warranty service on an essential household appliance is unacceptable.

      A warranty is only valuable if timely service is available when a product fails. At present, I am left with a broken dryer and no reasonable solution despite purchasing a new appliance from a major manufacturer. I am requesting that GE: Expedite my repair appointment. Review the service capacity being provided through Bodewell in the Dallas market. Explain how a major failure of this nature occurred on an appliance that is less than one year old.

      Called GE services for a refrigerator problem and ended up at Bodewell customer service. Based on the symptoms, the customer service agent said the warranty covers 5 years of motor and that the service and parts would be included. I checked three times, and she confirmed. But once the service tech arrived, he found a motherboard issue and stated a $700 price tag. Worst is that they double charge for the service - a $120 for the site visit and $180 for service, even though both were performed during the same visit within an hour. When I said I didn't want any service, he said he would charge $120 anyways. Completely different from what I heard on the phone from the CS agent.

      I asked for a detailed quote/invoice, and he could not send one until I paid. Even after I paid, the receipt only included the full price and no service vs parts details. At some stage, he started yelling at me for asking clarifying questions. I will never call GE customer service, nor buy any warranty. Shady service, and Rip-off.

      We bought the top-of-the-line GE kitchen appliances in OCT 2014. Yesterday, we discovered that in two small areas inside the dishwasher, rust had pitted the metal and was on the wall of the machine. I called today and spoke to a nice lady who had to confer with someone else. She came back on the call and said it would not be covered, as it was superficial and due to hard water. I told her that it was not, and I was sent an email requiring me to respond with photographs of my two rust areas. This was a very poor initial contact with the company I purchased an extended warranty from. The inside walls of dishwashers are coated and are not supposed to rust after 18 months. So, let's see what these folks come up with. I am contemplating a small-claims lawsuit and filing complaints with the BBB, the Virginia Consumer Affairs office, and the Federal Trade Commission.

      Complete update on our repair experience with Bodewell: Per your request, I’m reaching out about our repair issue. Bodewell has been out to our house 3 times to ‘repair’ our dishwasher. The first time, the repair person showed up at 1:30 (we had an appointment time between 8 and 12) with no call explaining why he was late. He did not fix anything and the dishwasher still leaked.

      Then, we had a 2nd guy come out. He recognized that the inner door seal was messed up after I had him relook at the dishwasher door because he didn’t spot it on his first look. He attributed the leaking to seals that were stated by the manufacturer should be installed (we have a print out if the installation manual from our contractor stating the dishwasher should be installed with them; however, he disagrees with the manufacturer). He did order the part. Then, the third time a tech came out to install the inner dishwasher door. That tech arrived at 4:15 and told me from the beginning he was leaving at five whether the job was done or not. He not only did not fix the leak, but left it so the dishwasher door slams down and the detergent door doesn’t open.

      I called customer service and they asked me what did I expect: (1) for him to fix it tonight, (2) fix it for free, or (3) fix it and not get paid. I said I would expect what any reasonable person would want: to have the job fully completed (including what he messed up) before leaving. I was told that was unreasonable and disrespectful and that she was not surprised that he left. She recommended I schedule an early appointment from 8 to 12. I told her we did that once before and the tech didn’t show up until 1:30 pm. When we commented that he was an hour and a half outside the window without calling, he yelled at my wife and I asking if we wanted him to fix it.

      Today, May 28th, Bodewell came out again and the techs refused to fix the dishwasher because they wouldn’t pull the dishwasher out of the cabinet (in between criticizing the one tech and complaining he shouldn’t be doing any of this because he “is on light work”). So, the dishwasher repairman wouldn’t fix the door spring cables on that the other one broke because he wouldn’t pull the dishwasher out? And, they now have to come out again on June 15th to fix the dishwasher leak, door springs and cables, and the soap dispenser (they said something was wrong with the cable harness wire - which they reused when they put the new inner door back one and worked fine before they switched it out).

      Here is my original Google review: Representative showed up at 4:15 in a 12 to 5 (5 hour window) and told me he was only working to 5 since he doesn’t get overtime. I told him that scheduling is not my issue. That is an issue he needs to take up with Bodewell and that I expect the job to be completed since I have waited over 4 hours today alone and it was scheduled early May. To his credit, he fixed it and stayed until 5:15. However, because he was rushing to get it done he broke or failed to hook up the springs. When we called him back in he refused to fix it because it was after hours.

      When I called to have the leaky dishwasher repaired since it was covered under warranty, they first told me they didn’t need to fix it because they (Bodewell) didn’t get our money when we bought the appliance. You can’t make this stuff up. Bodewell is a horrible company when it comes to honoring time windows, sending quality techs (we’ve had only one good one), and servicing our GE product. EDIT: The tech actually made it worst! The dishwasher door falls down and the soap dispenser door doesn’t open when running.

      Worse service ever and now the tech refuses to come back to fix the problem because they claim I did not pay the invoice for which I have a receipt. Now I can’t get anyone from billing to call back. Had I seen these reviews I would never have let the tech anywhere near my appliance.

      DO NOT BUY GE APPLIANCES. Microwave broke after 4 month. Transferred around. Told I would get an email after two days that would ask for reciept and give me instructions on how to buy a new one and get reimbursed. Never got an email. Rep on the phone (Erika) would stay silent for a long time and then she was ready to hang up without explaining what were the next steps.

      I have a GE gas range (purchased through Lowe's) that's about 7 months old that I can't use because the oven heats so unevenly that most products I cook are burned on one side and undercooked on the other. This started happening within the first 2 months after purchase. GE doesn't have any techs in my area, so had to go with the local repair company. The one guy available in my area had never seen an oven like mine so didn't know how it was supposed to operate. After his 15 minute visit without testing anything, he wrote a report to GE that it was operating as designed. And I was told by GE that they couldn't do anything more because they had to use this report. Even after I sent a video of the oven working properly, I was told there was nothing they could do.

      The ONLY option was for me to get a 2nd opinion, but this meant hiring my own technician, and GE covering ONLY $250 of it, even though the item is still well within the warranty period. $250 doesn't even cover the cost of the technician visit. Such poor coverage and customer service from such a large company. I'll never buy another GE product.

      I had an issue with my dishwasher in Sept 2025. It took almost 2 months for the repair. It is a seasonal residence and we discovered in March 2026 that the repair had not "held." At that point, GE was using Bodewell for servicing. TERRIBLE! Even though GE had extended my warranty twice, by the time Bodewell was able to schedule service, I was told my area was no longer covered. I found someone to do the repair but they determined the unit could not be fixed. And GE has only offered a big discount on a new one. NO THANK YOU! I will NEVER buy GE again - and I was a loyal customer for 20+ years. Horrendous customer service model. Even the original servicer said that working directly with GE had always been fine, but Bodewell is a nightmare.

      The Bodewell repairman told me my brand new GE profile dishwasher was leaking because I put too much soap in it. When I told him there was no soap in there he said I rinsed my dishes too well so the soap wasn't able to effectively eat anything on the dishes. He said I was using too much soap.. I told him I wasn't using any soap for the last four or five cycles and that there was no soap scum on the floor, where the leak was, he kept telling me it wasn't the dishwasher's fault that it's leaking. Honestly, why is GE using this company for their warranty work? The Customer Service rep told me I should go out and get a plumber. That's what they recommend all of their customers do instead of having them repair it. Now they have referred me to JNM appliances because they don't know how to repair a brand new dishwasher.

      First experience with a Bodewell service call was satisfactory; my GE dishwasher was fixed and worked fine up until now. Made another call and was informed that my area is no longer covered, and I would have to find another company to service my appliance. At this point, it's probably more cost effective to purchase a new dishwasher. Not buying a GE dishwasher or any other GE appliances anymore.

      If we could give ZERO stars we would. When your GE appliance needs repair you get BODEWELL—a 3rd party repair company. They are frustrating and unreliable. They will change your appointment multiple times with no notice or contact. We had a Monday April 20, 2026 appointment 8-12. They never showed. When we called we were told by the automated system it was changed to Thursday April 23, 2026. We called this morning and had it changed to today between 7-11am. We have a confirmation number. Called BODEWELL and it was changed to NEXT Tuesday April 28. They have no record of these appointments. This is an incredibly difficult company to get a hold of a human and speak to regarding repairs. Makes me rethink getting GE appliances.

      Stay away from purchasing GE Appliances simply because if something goes wrong you'll have to deal with Bodewell. Bodewell is the 3rd Party repair service for GE. They are unreliable, never follow through with promised contacts, and never scheduled a repair appointment. They finally replaced our Refrigerator under Manufacturers Warranty, but that took 3 Months. They are a Train Wreck, stay away!!!!

      ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE. I don't waste time writing reviews, but I am so pissed and disappointed about all of our interactions and experiences with Bodewell Appliance Care that I felt compelled to get it out into the universe. The matching cabinet panel fell off of our Monogram dishwasher and we were unable to get it back on because the flimsy, cheap metal used on the dishwasher door was completely bent and mangled. We called the supplier who submitted the service request to GE who sent out their contracted "service experts" at Bodewell. At the initial appointment to fix the dishwasher door, THE TECHNICIANS BROKE THE CIRCUIT BOARD and had to order a replacement wiring harness to make it work again. Dishwasher was out of commission for a week until the new harness came in and the technician was able to replace it.

      Upon getting the dishwasher to work again, the technicians completely forgot about the INITITAL ISSUE and the door/cabinet panel was never addressed. I had to call and schedule another appointment for a technician to come out and inspect the door, SINCE THERE WAS NO RECORD OF THE INTITAL ISSUE. Technician came by and just said we needed to order a new door. Fine. Door, gets ordered, technician shows up, replaces the door, puts the panel back on, tells us not to pull the handle too hard or the panel will fall off again, door slams open THE SAME DAY because the tension was not set correctly for the extra weight, and THE PANEL FALLS OFF AGAIN. Call immediately and they say another technician will come out in 5 days, but we will be their first stop. Fine, whatever. Appointment day (widow 8am-12pm), no one shows. 11:30am I call and they say the technician will call me with an ETA.

      12:15pm no call no show, I call again and they say I am not on the schedule and there is NO RECORD OF EITHER OF MY LAST TWO CONVERSATIONS. Offer me another appointment the next day 12-5pm. I decline because I am not waiting around for another 5 hours, and I ask to be escalated to get an exact appointment time. Support team says there is no way to do that, EVEN FOR A CUSTOMER WHO HAS BEEN SCREWED OVER AND OVER AGAIN BY THEIR COMPANY. The only thing they can do is request that we are the first stop on the day of the appointment. I understand that mistakes happen, but our experiences with this company HAVE ALL BEEN DISAPPOINTING AND FRUSTRATING, and the worst part is that we can not ask for or receive any compensation because this is all being done under warranty! What an awful business.

      3/9/2026 ice maker and freezer not working, fridge working. Bodewell was referred by the insurance co. Tech when he left, the right fridge door lower than left, he said call insurance co, get a request and he will be out to fix it. The next morning, not only the freezer and ice maker not working, now the refrigerator is not working, included with the parts was a new evaporator, which wasn't installed. Said it didn't need to be installed, so we had to move everything out of the fridge and put into the one in the garage.

      I purchased all new GE appliances for my new in April 2024. My appliances were delivered on June 15, 2024 because I did not move into the new home after my April closing date. My double wall over that I $1700 for upper over light will not go off. I called GE/Bodewell Appliance care expert in Nov 2024 to tell them what was happening. They have been sending different technicians out almost monthly to try fix the light. They have replaced everything but the light will not go off. It is March 6, 2026, there was a technician at my home today trying to fix this oven and have decided to order more parts. I’m currently on hold with Bodewell Customer service. I ask to speak to management and the customer complaints rep have put me on hold for 32 min as I type this review. Please do not purchase GE appliances. They do not take care of their customer.

      No doubt a disgraceful company. The reviews you've been reading are not exaggerating. Choose another brand, you'll be glad it's not a GE appliance. Bodewell technicians are very skilled at ordering parts, not fixing anything, antagonizing customers, and scheduling more service appointments. I bought the combo washer dryer in February. The dryer exploded with lint, filth and hair in November. It has not worked since. Our favorite clothes are destroyed, unsalvageable. Today, the second technician successfully ordered another new part and scheduled a third service appointment for one month from now. The customer service representatives are left to deal with the angry customer rage. It's never-ending. Save yourself the pain and mess.

      I called because my agitator in my washer machine was making a grinding noise out of nowhere. GE teamed up with Bodewell so a technician came out with his computer like he was doing something. Long story short he said a mouse chewed on my wires and shit. How the f can a mouse chew on my wire and that’s what’s making it make noise. I looked under the machine…. no chewed wires in sight. Then they say I have to call an exterminator before they can come back out. First of all that don’t even make sense a chewed up wire caused my agitator to make noise. He didn’t show me the chewed wire. Then with him cursing yes we’re all adults here but if you’re representing a company keep it professional smh. I’m still having the problem. This is ridiculous.

      Terrible service! I bought a GE oven/microwave that has not worked properly since it was installed. I finally got a service appointment through Bodewell which handles GE warranty repair after several weeks. I had a 5 hour window for service and they never arrived. I then spent the next 50 minutes on hold with various people at Bodewell. They farm out the service, and they could not contact the company that was supposed to come. They said they had no other servicers in my area. I asked for a supervisor, on hold for another 30 minutes, then told they would transfer me to consumer affairs but were unable to do that despite the long wait. Now they are suppose to email me with a solution in 1-3 days! Horrible!
