GE Washing Machines Reviews

I purchased a new GE Adora Dryer and Washer set after years of saving up. I was thrilled to have these Bronze Beauties adorn my laundry room! This was right before the holidays and I looked forward to washing every item in my home before the guests arrived! Three days before Christmas I threw a load in my sparkling new dryer hit the start button... and nothing happened. Was in shock, called GE and was told I would have a two week window before they could get anyone out. I had my kids, grandbabies, elderly parents and multiple four legged guests coming to stay for a week!

Bought it 7/6/2015 at Lowe's. First one delivered had metal on metal grinding, they delivered a new one the next day. Today, 2/28/2016, agitator fell off, $300 duvet ripped to pieces and stuck under agitator bottom. Plastic pieces everywhere from agitator. Jumping through hoops to get a repair man. He will be here in 4 days? I even bought extended warranty. I have the receipt but do not have a scanner to submit receipt.

Purchased this GE Washer - model# GTW46OASJWW because it's apparently the only one remaining with an actual agitator and the option of letting you pick the water level. After the first load, my clothes were still wet and sudsy. Thinking I may have pushed an incorrect button, I ran the load through a second time. Still quite wet, less sudsy. Ran the DRAIN and SPIN cycle. Water still remaining in the tub. I consider myself a pretty intelligent person, at least bright enough to operate a washing machine, but this one seems to be smarter than I!!! Returning this machine ASAP!

GE Washer GHWN4250D1WW - Poor Product. I bought this washer 04/11/14 and after it was delivered and set up I and my wife both thought it was a bit louder than our previous washer in the spin cycle. Since our laundry room is on the first floor we bought this machine because it was advertised as a very quiet running machine. We thought that we would just accept this and decided to keep it instead of dealing with the inconvenience of replacing it. (Big mistake!) After 15 months (out of warranty!), we noticed it getting louder in the spin cycle. I went online and started troubleshooting. I was told it was probably the tub bearing (actually a flanged bushing) so I read the article and watched the video on how to replace it. It looked like a major job so I decided to check about having a service person do it. I searched and found that it was very expensive so we put off having it done and we just struggled with the loud noise.

GE front load Washer/Dryer Set. Purchased 5 years ago from Home Depot. Washer delivery service caused a huge scratch in the plastic window. Offered $100 off. Told them to bring new one. Over 30 days to obtain. Finally arrived. Within 1st 2 weeks door gasket failed. Found out new upgrade gasket was available and it was installed. Gasket leaked, operation became extremely noisy, flooded my laundry room. Returned and replaced gasket. Leaked again. Offered upgrade floor model for exchange. Installed and worked well for about 6 months. Same problem with spinning and leaking. Repaired under service contract. Worked for about 6 months. Repaired again, worked for 6 months, same spinning and leaking. Complained to Home Depot.

1st off, I have NEVER complained about anything like this before. I also know that NOTHING will be done, and I understand that. However, I have a washing machine that I paid good money for. The funny thing is, this machine WILL NOT GET MY CLOTHES CLEAN and has been this way since I got it. I did entertain the thought that it was the machine. Then quickly I dismissed that, after all, this is a GE, I mean they don't make faulty washers, do they? So off I went, I purchased stain removers, over and over. Different soap, I always used Tide, but thought, maybe it wasn't working well, after all these years. Oxy Boosters, everything one could think of to get my clothes clean. To no avail!!!

Bought this GHWN4250DWW washer 10/9/2014 - it worked great until a few weeks ago. When it is on the spin cycle, the washer literally sounds like an airplane is taking off inside my house. The "click" that you're only supposed to hear at the beginning of end of a cycle... my machine is making that sound during the entire agitator cycle. It sounds like someone is smacking a metal ruler against the side of the washer. Does not fill up to "set" load type, leaves marks on clean clothes and does not get all the soap out of the clothes!!! Paid $547 at home depot for the machine. From what I'm seeing so far, looks like I'll be purchasing another washer (not Ge) very soon.

1000M3WW - Gave up my working washer for their washing machine that doesn't work. Rinse cycle will not fill up which then your clothes are washed. Your clothes end up in a super very tight ball. The clothes of mine, it has ripped up or stretched out of shape which in turn pushes the agitator off center distorting the bottom water seal, which leaks all over like the Titanic then leaks on the spin cycle motor destroying it. Their repair company A&E is more like the Keystone cops. One screw up after screw up. It hasn't worked for three weeks. Their motto on their operating states "Laundry Your Way", that refers to a working unit. Something they don't care if we the customer has or not. This is the second unit of theirs all not even lasting a year. If I wasn't on guard to assure the rinse cycle had enough water to cover the it would have been very much sooner on break down.

GCVH6260HWOW upright washing machine began not following proper cycles. Did not wash properly, then did not drain, eventually did nothing. Called the local repairman (we live in a rural area) he attempted to repair but said he had no access to the codes that came up. Apparently GE sold the codes to someone in a foreign country and you would have to purchase them, which he was not willing to do. Called the GE service centre in Winnipeg and they only do house calls. They would not travel the 100 KMS, and they do not have a shop where I could drop off machine. I then called GE directly and they basically told me, "tough luck". I then contacted Barkman Appliance Repair in Steinbach. Nice people. Delivered my washer to them. Had an estimate by the next morning. Over $700.00 for a new main board. This washer is 7 years old and cost around $1500.00. Another piece of scrap metal for the shredder. Will never buy another GE product.

I'm on my third washer of the same brand and model number (GE Washer GTWN4250DWS). I bought the first one in August. It was damaged when we took it out of the box. They (Best Buy) replaced it with another, had it delivered. The delivery guys damaged it when pulling it out of the truck - I saw this happen. It (#2 washer) screeched horribly from the moment I ran a load through. Now four months later on my newest (#3) washer it's starting to screech. I called Best Buy, they said it's passed their warranty so I called GE consumer relations and I was told they would NOT refund my money but instead would send a service man out. ON A BRAND NEW WASHER!!! I have spent time off work separate times to get a delivery/service guy out to take a peep at the washer and NOPE! So, I'm seriously ill from spending $600 on a washer that is a PIECE OF CRAP!! I'll never buy another GE appliance again!!!

Bought GE washer model GTW485ASJOWS not even two months old and it quit working. Trying to get it fixed is a nightmare. GE must think no one works. Keep getting told I have to give them a three-hour window to do repairs but they want to work on it between 9 and 5 Monday through Friday. Sorry, I have a full-time job, they need to realize if we would not buy their products none of them would not have a job. Would NEVER buy another GE product. Rude staff and even worse product.

We have an eight year old front load GCVH washer. All of a sudden, chunks of wood and fabric starting showing up in the basket after spinning and the drum wobbles out of control. Sounds like something is actually behind the drum itself! Next washer will not be GE (Whirlpool, I think). It will be the old style top loader.

July 7th, 2017. Purchased a Hotpoint washer and dryer... Dryer kept going. Needed new timer. Washer never had a hot water wash, not ever. 3 repairman calls only to be finally told that the machine is federally (gov.) made to wash cold and warm and that we will never have a hot water wash unless (and listen to this) my 80 year old mother and myself are willing to climb behind the machine to access our cold water valve and turn it off BUT be within earshot because clothes won't rinse in hot water so she would have to climb back down basement stairs and HEAR rinse cycle start CLIMB behind washer again to turn cold water valve back on, then climb back upstairs....

In August 2013, I purchased a GE washer model #GTWN7450D0WW. Causes holes in our clothes. Machine is leaking from underneath. Repairman from A&E Factory Service this week charged me $79, but couldn't find the source of the leak. Discovered I had extended warranty. Another repairman from another company could not find leak, but ordered shocks for agitator and thought leak could be coming from bleach dispenser area. This washer is two years old - so disappointed. My last washer and dryer (Whirlpool) lasted over 20 years, with only one repair each. I purchased the GE washer and dryer at Home Depot. GE used to have a good name. Will not buy anymore GE products!

We purchased a new GE washing machine model GTW485ASJWS and within 3 months the start button stuck in the down position and the machine would not start. It turns out this start button assembly is made of thin plastic which is easily bent or broken. Given that this button needs to be pushed with each and every load, I would hope that GE would look at replacing this mechanism. We were very pleased with the rest of the washer, however this temperamental start button is a fatal flaw and we hope GE will come out with a replacement part for these machines.

Purchased GE Steam Tech Clean Speak Washer - BIGGEST PILE OF CRAP EVER!!! Who spends over 1k on a washing machine and it has NEVER filled the water level properly? It CONSTANTLY leaves soap & suds on our clothes!!! HATE IT!!! Makes me angry that we literally threw 1k out of the window 'cause this thing is AWFUL!!! Don't waste your money!!!

Washer model # gtwn4250d1ws and dryer model # gtwp490ed7ws. These products were purchased in 2015 from Lowe's in Farmington Mo. We had Kenmore products before and they were good but I wanted to try GE products because we had heard they were better. STUPID ME!!! The washer is very loud and the dryer from day 1 throws lint all over my clothes. NO the hose is brand new and is not kinked. YES the lint filter is cleaned after every cycle. They say that word of mouth is the best advertisement! Well, I've got some words for you and everybody I meet!!!

We purchased a GE Washing Machine 3 years ago. We started having problems in November with the agitator not working and the tub working itself off balance. We ordered a part for approx. $150 and had it fixed only to continue to have the problem. After several attempts to fix we finally had to purchase a new washer. GE response was "sorry".

GTWN4250 noisy and low water level. From day one this washing machine makes a loud thumping noise while spinning. A GE repairman replaced the tub under warranty, then after the new tub still made the noise he said all of these washers make that sound. This washer has never filled the water level to cover the clothes since being new. Six months earlier we purchased a set of speed Queen washer and dryer for our northern home. The speed Queen was an excellent choice because you can select the water level as you used to do in the old days and there is no rumbling noise when spinning. I wish we would have purchased speed Queen for our Florida home.

Wish there was a zero star rating. Bought a stackable washer/dryer combo less than a year ago, completely broke down in six months. Called GE to arrange repairs, had to wait for someone to contact us. Finally, someone gets back to us -- we have to wait a week for the repair person. Repair person looks at the washer and tells us it will basically need a complete overhaul, wait a week or so for the parts to come in. Parts take their own sweet time. Repair person calls us -- the tub is cracked, have to send it back. Wait another week plus some for new part, another week for repair person to come. Repair person comes, decides it's un-fixable.

Just the facts: GE top load washer GTW460ASJWW 1st washer installed properly by Lowe's had a "grinding" agitation noise. Tolerable, but I was worried it might be a problem, because troubleshooting guide 1st item was "Washer sounds too quiet" and that is normal! 2nd washer installed properly by Lowe's automatically filled with cold water without even being started. Called GE appliance center. Courteous, but person was not aware of recalls or complaints. Called a 2nd time just to see if I would get a different response. Person was courteous but blamed Lowe's installers. We have never had a bad experience with Lowe's. We will probably shop for a different brand based on this experience.

Not working at all. I live alone and do wash once a week. Hardly used machine and it first started failing by not pumping out the water and no spin cycle. Now it does not work at all.

I have had this GE washing machine for 1 year and four months and it needs a major repair where the parts cost more than the washing machine. Of course, the warranty ran out 4 months ago. The agitator seals and bearings have failed leaking water onto my floor. The leaking water also damaged the agitator motor. I expect a washing machine to last at least 10 years. My first machine lasted almost 20. It is too bad the products are such poor workmanship after paying over $500 for a washing machine.

We purchased a front load GE washing machine only 15 months ago. Model #GFWR4805FMC. First of all, clothes are just about ruined from horrible smell of washer. More importantly, tub just broke and cost is over $1000 to repair. We are 3 months outside of warranty, so this $3500 we spent on new washer & dryer is basically wasted. Dryer still works for "now," so out of an expensive washer. We are now forced to purchase another washer which is approx $1500. Will NOT purchase another front load washer and definitely never again from GE!!! Customer relations at GE offered a discount on a new washer, but not that substantial and quite honestly how could we ever trust their quality again??? Very disappointed with GE!!!

Hello to everyone who has had trouble with moldy washer issues. Here is the absolute truth about front load washing machines: THEY ARE CAUSING TROUBLE ALL OVER THE PLACE AND THE COMPANIES (mine is GE) TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE PROBLEMS THAT ARISE. Both the companies and the technicians know EXACTLY what is going on, but since the almighty dollar is more important than customer satisfaction, you will just beat your head against a wall trying to get some sort of assistance that won't cost you more than a new washer. The area beyond the inner drum builds up with scum and mold beyond what you might imagine. I know - I have seen it for myself a few times.

My power button broke for the third time and I hardly do any laundry. It's a faulty button and the entire brains of the computer have to be replaced over a power button.

I had a washing machine delivered brand new, didn't work the day on arrival. The next day brought me another "new" washing machine. Less than three months later, EXTREMELY loud metal scrapping noise from machine. They want me to wait two weeks to send out a repairman. NO THANK YOU. Come get your machine out of my home.

I bought this washer 10 months ago from Home Depot. I had to purchase this particular model because it's the only one that will fit in my washer/dryer laundry room closet! Home Depot is very pleasant to buy from and they quickly delivered and installed this washer for me. The washer is still under warranty and it's already broken and needs repair! During the spin cycle, a bracket that holds the drum in place snapped!

I think that I have found out why their machines break down so much! In ten minutes, I talked to three people at GE, and not any one of them acted like they knew nothing! How can a big company like GE not know what is going on! Never have I seen so much incompetence in one place! Now on to my problem! Right after we bought this machine (modelwbvh5200j1ww), we had problems with it no spinning, all the water out of the clothes - so we called GE for warranty work to be done. We also noticed around this time that the drum was doing more than spinning - it was wobbling. We told this to technician - he told us that GE would not warranty a stainless steel basket to be replaced.

At the recommendation of a local appliance store, I purchased the above dryer. (I could not find anywhere to post reviews for GE dryers). During my first use, I noticed water sitting on the floor below the front of the dryer. Also, the items in the dryer never completely dried, even after running the dryer for over an hour. My contractor looked at it (we assumed it was an installation problem at first). But then discovered that this dryer is designed to have water sit on the floor at the front of the machine with each use. I was not used the steam technology "feature". Apparently, with the dryer, steam will come into the dryer whether you select that option or not.

GE model WTW4800XQ2 gearbox failure. Machine purchased 9-3-2012 and now the gearbox is leaking oil like crazy. Thought I was buying a durable medium priced appliance. No more GE for me.

I purchased this at a Sears in October of 2015. I also have a complaint of not enough water when filling up and leaving residue on clothes. Has always made strange noises. Went to use it today and there was a loud popping noise. It is still under warranty through Sears and Technician came out and washer is shot. The whole drum came away taking all the wires with it. The replacement parts are on back order so now no washing machine until 11-24-15. I will now always look at reviews for GE products before buying.

I have the GE washing machine model GTWN4250D1WS serial VA168405G. Very disappointed. After 1 1/2 years started having problems with very loud noise. Called repair man who told me the bearings were going out. Was told to use it til it quit working and just get a new one. I truly expected it to last longer than that. Will never buy GE washing machine again.

I have called numerous time to have warranty work done over a period greater than a year. Their solution: go spend the money to buy another GE as this washer sits here not even able to spin. Consumer Affairs gave an extended warranty period since they could not get it fixed in the period of time that is acceptable to even them and now they are not holding true to their word on that. I am a person that documents all my calls and people that I speak to. I would highly recommend to steer clear of any GE products because there is no warranty. I look today and 1 star rating means that it is just not this one isolated case. Many, many people are having the same type of issues with any warranty work.

Washer GTWN4250 - OMG where to begin? This is my first online review ever. Do not buy this washer - all of the reviews are right... I am not a competitor nor a disgruntled employee. Just a consumer who purchased this hunk of junk October 2014. I am in my second and it is October 2015. GE's consumer relations department is a joke and beware of Anya, the person who I would continuously be con feted with regardless of department I called. She is rude and unprofessional. When I asked for her supervisor, she said there wasn't anyone. It was a Complete nightmare. It took at least 3 repairmen to come to my house to evaluate the first machine. The first one said to call consumer relations. The second couldn't see any problem with it but didn't take it apart. The third one came to my house at 8:30 pm! But took it apart and agreed that this machine was flawed.

We have had our front end GE washing machine for about 5 years and ever since the day we purchased it, I have HATED it. I have tried to contact the company of GE but because of my lack of knowledge to find the right place to contact them - I have had no success. If you put more than 3 pieces of material in this machine, it shakes and makes an awful noise and the clothing feels as if it never went through the drain cycle. This should not happen. It also has an awful odor that comes from the machine. Does anyone know how to reach GE?

We bought a washer from hhgregg in June of 2015. In October I was washing my mattress cover and it got stuck under the agitator. Repairman came as I was directed to do by GE and found no problem with machine. My mattress cover has black on it and 2 cm holes. I purchased a new cover at $95. Called your insurance dept and had several communications with them. Said nothing they can do if machine is fine. Then the woman today said it was probably how I put it in. Really!!! I have washed for 40 years and never had a machine do this. I will never buy another GE appliance. You should stand behind your products.

Worst washing and drying machine we ever bought. By far. Everything has broken on them - nobs - plastic stuff, tub. You name it.

I bought a GE top load washer model # PTAN9150MWW about 3 years ago, didn't wash properly. If washing larger loads clothes came out soaking wet, and not clean, and now leaking lots of water. Very disappointed in this purchase. I will never buy another GE product again!

My parents in their late 60's and 70's are lifelong GE customers. In January 16, 2015, my parents purchased a GE washing machine serial GTWN7450H1WW. Serial Number VD103328G. After renovating their kitchen, they got a washer, double door fridge, microwave, and dishwasher. In late July, the machine started having problems. After less than 2 minutes of being turned on, water filling in, it would read on the screen - Sense. The machine would still be locked, but wouldn't work. My mom called GE, and was transferred all over different department, she eventually went to Home Depot to her sales agent, who she has worked with for years to help. The lady, called GE, and GE arranged for a contract person came out from their end to fix the problem. The gentleman who came was quite rude to my mom. Problem was fixed, but it was a temporary one.

GE washer model # GTWN4250D1ws: DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!! THERE IS NO BIGGER PIECE OF CRAP ON THE MARKET!! Never filled properly from the time of the very first load. Always had to keep a bucket near the washer to add enough water. Water temp is a joke. Once you close the lid it will only fill with cold water no matter what the temp setting is. Make horrendous noise when doing anything because it has no transmission and everything runs directly off of the motor. Now less than a year since purchase it will not drain all of the wash water. After it runs the rinse cycle there is still soap suds left in the clothes and now it does not spin fast enough to even get the clothes close to being ready to put in the dryer. It deserves no stars and it should be recalled by the Consumer Protection Agency and anyone who bought it should get their purchase price refunded.

I have had my washer for less than three years and it no longer agitates and won't spin. There is nothing wrong with the magnet, and the motor doesn't need to be reset. The belt moves freely, however, the motor just hums without moving during the spin cycle. I have tried all the self-helps on YouTube. Will get a new washer this weekend, and never buy GE products again. It has a one year warranty. Don't expect to get much more.

GE Model # GTWN4250DWS 3.8 cu. ft. Top Load Washer - The 754 Complaints with ConsumerAffairs are right and as of today 755. This washer is less than 2 years old and it is already showing signs of disrepair. The washer in no way cleans an extra large load and that could consists of a blanket and sheet set. The tub is large but deceptive because it does not fill even halfway for an extra large load leaving clothes not as clean as if you made the load medium.

GE front loading washers--help!!!!! So, I just spent 30 min sucking water out the bottom drawer of my washer with my shop vac. Washer fills with water but never starts a cycle! Running water impacts rubber in front. Water runs right into drawer with my laundry soap! Ugh. Anyone else with this problem?

Buyer Beware. DO NOT PURCHASE!! Believe the reviews you read. Extremely disappointed with the GE HydroWave washer model # GTWN4250D. It isn't very old and has been serviced several times. We thought with an extended warranty things would be alright... WRONG! Never Again!! Stick to any other brand that stands behind their name and products! It is quite the task to do laundry at home and makes it an all day event. The washer does not fill to adequate levels to wash clothes and does not properly agitate, so your clothes still come out dirty. Of course, unless you do mini loads all day or be sure to get buckets of water to add to the wash! What a headache!! Not only will we never buy another washer from GE, but I will now avoid other products as well.

I bought this machine in 2011 and have had nothing but trouble with yucky lint residue on the clothes. I have tried all kinds of different remedies all of which failed. From changing HE detergent, to adding vinegar to each load, baking soda. I've sorted the clothes lint from non-lint. I've even turned the clothes inside out and washed smaller loads. It is very difficult to get the residue off the clothes. I'm having to wash the same clothes 3 times before it finally comes out. I've tried different wash settings, temperatures, no fabric softener. Oh My I've had it!! The several times I contacted GE they have not helped and I have no recourse. I want my old machine back that worked perfect for 27 years. There has to be some help for us customers who are totally frustrated! Please somebody do something!

Purchased August 2015. Several complaints made to Conn's. Asked to return. Unhappy with machine - shreds towels, doesn't get hot enough. Technician twice changed parts, still same problem as day 1.

My washer is not spinning, only 6 years old. It's absolutely the WORST washer I've ever owned. Do NOT buy one of these. They charged me 3000 dollars for the fancy red set, with pedestals. Had the repair guy out for drainage problems, broken balance spring (not covered by the $700 extended warranty) and now it won't spin. It's six yrs old and heading for the garbage dump. Look online, only dryers for sale. Hmmmmm. And don't get me started on the rotting, festering smell all front load washers have. Why should I buy special packets for cleaning a simple washer? GE is nothing but a scam. Should of kept my old Maytag super duty set, 20 yrs old, still working.

I paid extra to have a large tub to wash big items to save money. YEAH RIGHT. It's barely 4 years old. What used to sound like a helicopter sounds like a DC jetliner. Drivetrain is gone. Really? I had a Whirlpool for over 20 years. But yet this piece of crap lasts less than 5 years? I should have known when I bought a GE microwave. Constantly broke, repairs, tossed it. The washers are horrible. Will NEVER buy another GE appliance EVER. The best part? We never washed large items in it. Just imagine if we had!!

Purchased our washer July 2012. Within 2 months counter weights were loose. Not too big of a deal, but why? Not tightened while manufactured? A year later the agitator flew off during a spin cycle. Tore up the fabric softener dispenser and cracked a part underneath the agitator; both replaced. Last weekend, washer made a horrible "thump" every few seconds while washing so we stopped the cycle. Checked things out, restarted, and washer decided not to agitate or spin. Repairman out this morning and said it's pretty well shut. Cheaper to replace than repair. Seriously, 3 years is all you get out of a washer? Looking at an older, used washer on lunch hour today. Yea, save water by buying an efficient washer, but spend more in the long run!

This review is regarding GE Profile Washer model number WPDH8800J0MG. I purchased the washer in 2011. Recently, it made a thunking noise and I smelled burnt rubber at the end of the cycle. I went online to see what the problem could be before I called the repairman. Turns out, my washer was one of many GE front loaders with a safety recall. The machine spins so fast, it can break the seam in the basket.

I bought a GE top loader washing machine the end of 2012 from Lowe's. In June of 2015 when the machine spun it sounded like a jet engine and metal scraping. I had the GE repairman come 3 times to my house for repairs, costing over 250.00, after not one but two transmissions, new inside tub and outside plastic tub mount. After 10 days of the final repair, the machine sounds exactly the same as it did in the beginning. I called Customer Service and they told me they can replace the machine with a newer model, since that model is not made anymore for $419.00. What!!! Or my other option was to have them come to the house again to repair it. I told her that obviously they tried and failed numerous times. They would waive the 99.95 charge. How nice of them, and so I scheduled AGAIN for them to come to my house. I am taking off from work AGAIN for them to come and possibly fix this horrible machine. This is to be continued...

Washing Machine is about 7 years old, a top-load center agitator machine from the GE 'Profile' line with a stainless steel basket. After about the first year it started shedding some kind of powder or gritty residue on clothes. Sometimes it's a whitish powder stuck to clothes, sometimes it's clumps of grey crud rolling around in the bottom of the basket. It's usually easy to brush off, though sometimes dark clothes need to be washed again. Then for the past year it's been shedding larger chunks of metal - these chunks at first were the size of a fingernail, rounded, eroded chunks of grey cast metal. They come from inside the agitator, as they end up in the pump (a separate unit on this machine) and occasionally jam up the pump. Now larger chunks are coming off - I can hear them bouncing around under the basket while the machine is spinning and then they find their way into the drain hose and with a clattering sound they stop the pump.

Our 3 year old GE Profile top loading washing machine needs a new transmission. The repair technician told us that a $22 seal is responsible for a $400 transmission replacement. He offered that he sees these fail often and leaks are usually seen. We did not experience a visible leak. Spoke to Home Depot about it and they as much as said "what do you want us to do about it?" I said "for a start how about sell quality products?" GE has yet to respond to our email. Big surprise. Are major appliances now intended to be disposable every 3 years? We will only pay to fix this one once. If you decide to buy a GE appliance from the Home Depot. Purchase the longest all inclusive warranty you can afford.

GE Washer Model GTWN8250D0WS - This machine is not cleaning our clothes. I have tried several different detergents and I keep getting the same result. When I remove the clothes, after a full cycle and EXTRA rinse, the clothes have scum and dirt on them. I have now had two NEW comforters ripped/torn as a result of the spin cycle. I wrote an email to GE and they wrote back and asked me to contact another dept to file a damage claim. When I called the number provided to file this claim, I was told I needed a technician to come out to look at the machine and then the technician would "provide" me with a number to start the claim. Yikes! After my concerns and complaints to GE, I would think they could/would help me. I am posting this in hopes I can connect with others who purchased this "now discontinued" washer. I am still under warranty until Nov 2015 but would rather have my money back!

We bought a GE Washer and within 13 months we started having problems. The start button would not start the machine. When a service man came he confirmed that the GE washer we bought was no good. We are better off to buy a different brand.

Washer does not fill enough to clean clothes. I always have to add water. Also, I have taken the clothes out of the washer and seen spots that are completely dry which means there was not enough agitation to completely wet the whole article. Fortunately, no mechanical issues yet. In our prior home, we redid the kitchen and bought all new GE Profile appliances to the tune of over $3000. We did that because we had never had a problem with GE, although the service was not good. When we had a problem (which was three-fold), they wanted a service fee for each item. What!?? And come in one service call? We have since moved to Whirlpool and have our fingers crossed for better.

I remodeled my mom's house 2 years ago. We purchased a GE Dryer based on a review by Consumer Reports. In the 2-year period since we owned this dryer, which cost approximately $550, we have spent $250 in repairs, including replacing the belt. I have had my dryer over 10 years and have never experienced any problems. GE refused to address the issue because the 1-year warranty had expired. GE's response or lack thereof indicates to me that the company really does not care about having satisfied customers. My advice is STEER CLEAR OF ALL GE APPLIANCES!!

My GE washing machine is a joke. My serviceman said it is not even "worth spit". A water waster. What kind of idiot engineer would let a machine run through the complete cycle with the lid up? No spinning or agitation. Just fill and empty. Not like the old days... You gotta babysit the machine. What kind of idiot engineer would drain the wash without immediate slow turning? The soap hangs on the clothes. Gentle cycle beats clothes to death but at a shorter duration the regular cycle.

Bought new GE washing machine in 2011. Started to make weird noise while not even running, unplugged it. Tried to do a load of wash next day. Agitator would not move. Called for service and told the motor was shot. Are you kidding me!!! We are a family of 2. Only ran the damn thing a couple of times a week. I saw something about a class action lawsuit against GE. If that happens sign me up!!! Doesn't matter if it's washers, cars or whatever. Big companies think they can just keep making crap and not standing behind their products.

In 2006 I purchased GE top loading washing and matching dryer. By 2012 they were irreparable. I talked to GE who gave me a voucher only good for another GE pair. So in 2012 I purchased the updated pair, hoping that surely they would have improved their horrendous quality. Now August 2015 the new pair will each cost $400 to repair. The washer has a leaking transmission and the dryer's heating element for the sensor cycles needs replacing. That heater has been out for 2 years! I just used the timed cycle. Needless to say I will not buy GE again.

Our 4 1/2 year old washer stopped working. We called Lowe's, where it was purchased, and were given name and address of GE repairman. He came out, replaced a plastic part in the door, and left. Washer still did not work, yet he charged us $287.00. We called GE, and were assigned a consumer advocate. After taking five days out of our schedule to await repairmen, and paying an addition $89 for the "evaluation" of the problem, the washer remains I repaired. Latest appointment was today, and the service tech never showed up. Call to GE consumer representative resulting in us being asked to reserve yet another day in hopes of a service tech appearing. I am going tonight to purchase a new washer, as I have been without one for more than a month now. Not sure which brand I will purchase -- but I can assure you it will NOT be GE!

Purchased washer November 2011 and have not been pleased from the first wash. Not enough water to properly clean the clothes. A few months had problems that it would start filling, stop, drain, cut off or refill. Have had to stay by washer every moment. Can't reset time to continue when it goes into its own mode, so it drains & refills, saving NO water. Now, 8/15/2015, it starts, or doesn't, and cuts off in the middle of washing or rinsing. Have had to unplug this piece of trash to reset it. Sometime it helps, sometime not. This is my last GE appliance of any kind. I would not recommend spending money on a GE...

Purchased a GE top load washer (model # GTWN5050M1OWS) after reading a number of positive reviews at the GE web site. Those people must have been paid by GE to write them. Let me start by saying that I have had training in appliance repairs and at one time owned a repair business. The first problem came after it was first installed. It made some noises I had never experienced in a washer. I called the company and they sent out a technician that told us it was a normal sound for this type of machine so we lived with it.

GLWN2800DOWS - Works for a short time, doesn't drain right & spin too short.

Purchased at local ABC Warehouse. Installed on May 22, 2015. First week of August 2015, washer would not agitate properly so pushed reset button. It then would agitate but there was a rattle coming from underneath while it agitated. Next load, the washer made a loud squeak intermittently, which sounded like metal against metal. Repair person came today (August 11, 2015) and has to order and replace motor, belt, bearings, and another part I don't recall. Washer is trash in my opinion but GE will not replace or refund money -- only repair. I stupidly broke a promise to myself I made 40 years ago, to never buy another GE product of any kind because my GE washer burned up in less than a year at that time. Guess what? My new washer is trash. I screwed up again. GE products are trash. I will not even buy a GE light bulb after this! I will urge friends & family not to buy GE products.

3 months into purchase Lowe's the tranny went out. Next I had to replace the bearings in order to quiet down the washer so as to not wake the neighbors. Now its the tranny for a second time and to think that this piece of scrap metal is merely 14 months old. Run as fast as you can away from GE top loaders like mine. Ironically, my washer was part of GE Quiet Series. Lol… LMFAO!!!

Purchased WCVH6800 FrontLoad washer on 31DEC08. Worked great until last few months - goes out of balance, noisy, won't hit high speed spin. Reading blogs regarding problems with this model, determined the basket support (spider) had broken. Upon disassembly, found the part cracked on all 3 legs. Part price is over $450, no warranty. After so many complaints, I am amazed that GE has not acknowledged this design flaw. Now the washer is useless and uneconomical to repair. I contacted Cust. Relations at GE, but don't hold much hope in an equitable resolution.

I purchased a GE washer. I've had it for 6 months now. It stop working. The tub doesn't spin clothes. Always came out wet, full of soap. I have rather bought a older washer than these new front-loaders. They don't last and wash as well as the older top-loader washers. Never again. That's 500 dollars down the drain.

Purchased GFWS1700H0WW at Home Depot in December 2014. From the beginning machine didn't work too good, but worked (the laundry always smelled not fresh). In 5 months machine practically stopped rinsing. The cycle rinse and spin didn't work - wouldn't fill in water. Had already two warranty service calls. Every time listening to a lecture about how it's important to use less detergent than recommended (although we already use half of the recommended amount). The first time's technician disappeared leaving us with not working machine. The second time, the technician identified some error and removed it. After that the machine worked for 1 or 2 days and then again stopped. I requested replacement but so far GE rejects it, because the technician has to confirm that it's unrepairable. Looks like we are in the loop here. I guess we will have to explore other legal ways of dealing with the situation.

First of all, let me say that we are a couple who do, maybe, four loads of laundry per week. Now, four months with the new washing machine, and it needs a new inverter motor! I probably should have called to complain two months ago, but the problem seemed to fix itself. Can't believe it! My last washer - a Maytag was 27 years old and still working like a dream when we sold our home last year. Fortunately our GE machine is still under warranty. The nice technician said GE and Whirlpool are the worst machines now. So many repairs and complaints even within the first few months. I should have gone with the Consumer Reports recommendation of an LG washer/dryer (made in Korea). If the inverter motor has broken so quickly, what's the chance that the next/new one will last more than a few months. I only wish we (the U.S.) would get back to making some quality products in the United States again. I'm sick and tired of getting junk from China!!!

I ordered the GE GTWN5650F washer from Lowe's. The first one GE sent was badly scratched. Its replacement was deeply dented. The third machine was so badly damaged, all the Lowe's manager could say was "I'm so sorry." This machine was one of only two top loading washers recommended by Consumer Reports. I don't know where they got theirs, but mine lived up to GE's reputation for shoddy quality. Save yourself a horrible experience.

My only complaint with GE is that it takes me too long to do a load of laundry. I live in an all-electric community and the washer does not give short time cycles. It takes me an hour to do a small load of clothes. Even the speedy cycle takes too long. Between washing and drying it takes me two hours. And on off peak hours after 9 PM, I am up until 11 PM or 12 AM doing laundry. That is so stupid. Go back to the turn knob for the people like me who just wants to wash a five or ten minute cycle. Let the customer decide how much time they want to do a load of laundry.

What a nightmare!! My GE front loader washer leaks. I have to put a towel at the bottom to absorb the water, and worry that it will ruin my floors. Half the time my clothes do not spin thoroughly, and smell like mildew when they are drying! Now the washer sounds like a freight train and smells like burning rubber!! I just found out that the bearings are shot, and will cost nearly 500.00 to repair!!! Stay far away from this brand! !

GE Profile Washer - This is by far the worst washer I've ever owned. I purchased this HE washer so that I could save water, electricity, and overall save money. Well... I wish I had not given away my old school washer. The GE Profile will constantly reset once the washer has filled with water and then it will empty on its own, fill up, empty again and so on and so on. I'm not saving on water, detergent, or electricity WHATSOEVER!! It will eventually complete a wash cycle. And something else, heaven forbid that I need to soak an item. The tank will leak all over. Thank God my washer is in the garage. I've called GE countless times and have gotten nowhere. They tell me they've had no other complaints like mine and the product has not been recalled and to pretty much consider buying a different GE washer.

Had this GE washer (gtwn4250wwn) 6 months. About 2 mos. in starting seeing towel and sheet hems torn, frayed or torn off as well as holes in cotton clothes and towels! This machine also leaks underneath, not all loads but a lot (under front and left side can feel wet). Repairman 4 months in said agitators rough underneath (I could feel it and noticed before he came), said is a common problem in their agitators. He's smoothing down agitator and ordered new one but felt would be same and it did come rough underneath! Even though it still is shredding my towel hems and side heads as well as holes in cottons. He couldn't see prob w/ leaking underneath but continues, and under review see others are experiencing!

From day one our washer didn't clean our clothes well. The water saving sensor never sensed the load correctly. Water spills out of the bottom. It caught FIRE! Our car is in the garage with the washer, so had I not checked on the clothes before bedtime my family and I would not be here today! Thank you to GE for stealing my hard earned money. You also create defective products and have zero concern for the possible consequences. Thank you to Home Depot for selling such a horrible brand. Wish I read the reviews first.

Bought a GE Hydrowave machine 5/14. The outside housing of my 20 year old Kenmore series became detached from the basket inside of the machine so I decided to replace it with a new one. WHAT A BIG MISTAKE that was. In all that time I had to have it serviced only once. I wish I had kept it. I went looking for a new one. I was looking for one that you had control over the water level and with one of the new type agitator. There was NOTHING out there that was anything like the Kenmore. I told the company that I bought it from what I wanted. They could not come up with anything I wanted. I went through 3 different washers. They finally said that this was the last one.

Worked fine for three years and suddenly it started sounding like a jet ready for take-off while spinning. Had a repairman come out and he said the transmission was shot and would cost too much to fix it. We paid $500 for it but did not purchase the extended warranty. Repairman said GE does not make a good washer anymore. He recommended either a Maytag or Whirlpool. What happened to the days when a washer would last 15 years? We are just a household of two people so it's not like we overused it.

I purchased a GE Adora washer and dryer. I have used them for less than a month and have had to make service call for repairs already. The washer is reading H2O Supply and I can't power it off unless I unplug it. My dryer has not worked from day 1. It would never get hot.

Bleach drips on clothes if a dark load follows, has ripped clothing, drum goes off balance, detergent and bleach and softener leak sometimes down the front. The under carriage is rusting out.

I ordered a GE washing machine and it worked fine for the first four months. All of a sudden the washer lid remained locked while it was in its soak cycle. I called GE and set up an appointment to have the washer fixed as it is still under a manufacturers warranty. Technician cancelled THREE times. I was upset because I didn't go to work THREE times and wasted three days off for nothing. My clothes have been sitting in water for two weeks and I leave for vacation in the morning.

The washer won't get clothes clean no water. Not clean.

The GE 2800 washing machine is good for a nightmare. The reviews detailing flooding are true. Believe them. I didn't. I bought a 2800 in January 2014. Fifty one weeks later, I had water all over the laundry room floor. GE repaired the machine in January 2015. The GE 2800 made it all the way to May 2015 (4 months) when for the second time it dumped water all over the laundry room floor. The agony of seeing water all over the laundry room floor is unbelievable, especially the second time.

I have had this General Electric hydrowave quiet agitator wash system for less than 3 years and it is not spinning for about a week now. Is there a warranty that comes with it, I didn't buy any. Please let me know what can Model # GTWN4250DOWS AND SERIAL# GZ170307G.

GE Washer Dies Early Death: Shame on You, General Electric! Shame on you, GE! We believe you knowingly sold us and many others a defective washing machine that breaks down as soon as one year after purchase (even earlier for some folks), and you offer customers no compensation via recalls, replacements, free servicing via extended warranties, or free estimates on repairs. You have cheated us, and we are extremely angry and demand compensation.

My machine is 8 weeks old. It only fills water 1/4 of machine. I have to use 2nd rinse cycle just so my clothes don't smell. I purchased at Home Depot. It's really not Home Depot's fault except they should STOP selling GE Products or at least this machine that has 700 complaints on just one site. I believe that the lemon law should be enforced here or a class action suit. It's not fair that GE be lowed to rip off customers like this. The USA used to defend their citizens against companies doing this to consumers. Many senior citizens living in apartments are just physically, emotionally, and financially unable to continue fighting GE to do something about these machines.

GE Washer 4.1 CF Steam - Washer is a top of the line washer, which was fine, paid top of the line price for it and its matching dryer (Over $2000.00). Just over a year old, washer will not turn on or off (problem with master panel). GE serviceman comes out, orders the part, 2 weeks later part is in, he comes back. OOPS! wrong part, start the process over with additional bonus aggravation of part not in stock. Upshot: 1 month washer has been out of service, calls to GE not returned. Don't buy this washer, I had 15 years of service from a much less expensive washer and never had a part "backordered".

We bought our washer on Sep.2011 Model # PTWN8055MOMS. It has become a nightmare. Everything everybody is saying is so true. I really wished I had know beforehand. :( Everything in our house that is GE has broken in less than a year. Never, never again we will purchased GE products. Please believe us.

Went into my local Home Depot three weeks ago to buy a dryer by a General Electric dryer. When it arrived at my home, the dryer was dented and did not work. I called Home Depot who is extremely helpful ordered me a new General Electric dryer number two - it arrived at my home a week later and did not work. General Electric did not want to hear anything about the problem, they kept blaming Home Depot because they took the order. When dryer number three arrived three weeks later, it finally work. Home Depot was kind enough to refund me $160 for my trouble. General Electric kept having me call back. In the end, result was there was nothing they could do but offer me $25. Lost three days of work going to the laundromat. General Electric does not care about their customers. Worst company ever - they do not listen.

I purchased a GE washer from Home Depot. At the time of purchase I was not told that I would be required to manually drain the washer in the front and clean the filter. I am 64 years old and have never had to manually drain and clean a washer filter. A repair tech came and told me I would have to do this once a week with the loads I do. At first it was a couple of cups of water, today the bucket rain all over the laundry room. Oh did I mention the machine is less than a year old? The way I discovered this drain is my machine was not draining and I don't have a drain cycle only a rinse and drain.

I purchased this washer back in 2008 from Lowe's and of course the warranty is now out. I should have kept my old Kenmore washer that was over 20 yrs old. At least it worked even if it was the most basic of machine. The first thing to go wrong was the timer knob needing replacing. Ok, I can see that (maybe), it gets used a couple times a week. So we replaced that. The next thing to start happening is it will not always do the spin in the rinse cycle, thus I think the clothes are done and they are still soaking wet when I go to get them out. Due to the frequent randomness of this, we haven't figured out what is causing it yet, so that has not been fixed yet. But now that is the least of my worries because now the machine just wants to constantly overflow on the wash fill up!!

GE Hydrowave washing machine cost me $1200.00. Dealer told me it was quiet and used less water. With eight kids and one adult I thought great. But not less water, hardly no water to wash clothes. Black dark lines on some of my clothes. Better off washing by hand. Don't buy this bad mistake.

GE washer GTAN2800DWW bought in June 2013. The agitator was so slow, I think it's normal like that. In February 2015, problem with the transmission. The repairman told me it's not worth to repair it, and he said never buy a GE.

I am angry at the people that sell the GE washers. They are rotten. We had a WHIRLPOOL washer and IT WAS STILL WORKING after 29 YEARS. We relocated to this area, and I did not bring the WASHER because the cost of the relocation. I paid @ 487.00 for the GE washer. Now, I am told the motor is broken and I will have pay $300.00 and the parts and have to pay the technician $99.00 for trip out here to fix it. The cost of another repair will about @ $400.00. If I pay for the repair, the same thing might happen me again in the future. That GE washer going to put to the trash!! I AM GOING TO BUY ANOTHER WHIRLPOOL, MAYTAG OR A KENMORE. I will look at the consumer reports before buy another one!! It is unconscionable, to give a 1 year limited on this PIECE OF JUNK!!

Had a GE washer for 25 years and it finally died. Bought another based on longevity of the first. Big mistake. While it is much quieter, it doesn't get the clothes as clean and if there's a spot (I'm talking tea or heavy dirt type spots, nothing serious) it has to be pre-treated. My other washer took care of everything. Maybe it's the difference in agitation or the amount of water? AND there is no lint catcher. I'm not sure who decided the traps aren't necessary anymore, but they are, especially in a house with cats. Anyway, my next washer will definitely not be a GE.

We purchased a dryer from GE for almost $1000. It has been nothing but trouble. We have had 5 service calls for the same issue. The service techs are nice and appear knowledgeable but the same issue remains... anyone who buys a GE product need to have their head examined.

On 11-07-14 I went out to Lowe's and purchased a GE washer model # GTWN4250D! This washer has been nothing but a headache from day one. It doesn't wash/clean your clothes at all. It doesn't give you enough water to even wet all you clothes! Whatever stains was there in the beginning are going to be there at the end double times! It doesn't spin properly - clothes are sure to be dripping, fabric softener, and detergent are going to be visible when the wash is "DONE"! We need to stand together and get a CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT GOING! I don't care what the dollar amount is that was spent on GE piece of crap we need to be compensated! I failed to mention that I have been going to the laundromat to do my laundry but have a "BRAND NEW" washer in my house! I won't go on but I can but before I leave I would just like to urge any potential customers to RUN LIKE HELL when you see GE on anything!

My GE (from Home Depot) is less than 2 years old and after it started leaking from the bottom, I had a repairman come out to inspect. I found out that the main bearing is bad, leaking water into the transmission, which is also ruined. It will cost $400 to repair. Obviously, not worth it and I will never buy another GE product of any sort ever again for any reason. I am very displeased, especially after reading all the other terrible reviews with similar problems.

GE hydrowave washer - I bought this washer almost three years ago. It is still under warranty. I dislike it so much I'm going today to get a totally different brand and style of washer. The first month I had it the motor went out. They replaced it after a two week wait for the repair man to arrive. Its sensors are constantly monitoring the fill levels. Which makes the clothes never have enough water to wash. They are so wrinkled my job just grows after the load is finally finished at an hour and 10 minutes. It has a huge basket that I only get to use a 1/4 of because that is all the water you get. When it spins it sounds like a jet taking off. Now it's banging and clattering during the wash cycle for no reason. It is not off balance or overloaded.

Bought washer from Home Depot. Paid for delivery and install. Flooded my brand new laundryroom. Has to replace drywall and baseboards. EEK! Took 1.5 years to get the washer exchanged. New washer does not leak but pounds when spinning. Model #GHWN4250D1WW

It is 2015 and my GE top loading washer that is 5 years old sounds like a jet engine when on spin cycle. I called a repairman and he said it was the bearings and not worth fixing. There is only myself in my home and I am very angry that my almost new matching set now will not be matching. I was told GE washers are the very worst, I have to agree. 560.00 in the trash, what is worse is that it will probably go to a landfill. I have had washers last 20 plus years without a problem.

I recently purchased a washer on 2/1/ 2015. The washer stabilizer fell off it two months later; making knocking sounds and throwing greyish dust on floor. I will never buy a GE washer ever again in my life.

I purchased the GE Hydrowave washer from Lowe's in August 2014 and immediately noticed a liquid that would appear in the base of the drum. I originally thought it was water until I noticed stains on my clothes. The liquid turned out to be an oil-based fluid that would sometimes contain rust. GE sent a repairman out and he had no idea what it was or where it was coming from. I called GE again and they are sending out another repairman tomorrow.

Drum shaft is broken. I did google it is common problem and GE is aware of this. They don't want to fix it.

GLWN5050MOWS - I purchased this washer 3 years ago... thought it would be fantastic with all the laundry I do, because I like my sheets, curtains and clothes constantly clean, you know saving water and all. Well FIRST, it doesn't give ENOUGH water to where the clothes come out DIRTY. I had mentioned this to my husband but he said I "overload" it. To his fancy I put less in. When I mean less I mean 4-5 towels!!! So now I'm raking up my time and energy bill to have stinky, dirty laundry. I dealt with it... One hand washes the other I guess, right??? Not right!!! I started getting back my clothes with bleach stains on them... figured I filled it too much in washer. Nope, wrong!!! We have to wash at least 3 loads to get rid of any bleach that is 50 ft from it!!!

I've had my washer for 4 years. It was brand new when I bought it for my 2 person household, and I was super excited to have a modern front loader. The washer failed recently and upon inspection of the tub assembly we found that extensive corrosion and breakage of the spindle was the cause of failure. Electrolytic corrosion. It looks like they used the wrong material for the piece which is constantly submerged in water while the washer is in use. The spindle has 3 spokes, and all of them were broken at the base by the hub. To replace the part, you have to order an entire new tub assembly. Since this occurred I've read reviews on GE washers from the last couple of years. The problems are consistently this portion of the tub assembly, no matter what the model. They should all be recalled, but only a few models made the recall list. I wish I had an old crappy washer like the one I gave up 4 years ago. GE washers aren't worth it.

I bought a GE washer in 2012. It only gave me 3 years and in between this 3 years so many headaches. Within the first month it broke down, got it fixed and broke down 2 more times. This time they told me it would cost me as much as I paid when I first bought it, to fix it. Ridiculous, I'm throwing this piece of crap away and getting another brand. Never again will I spent any money on any GE products ever again. And on top of that they have bad Customer Service when you call their offices. Everyone save your money and don't even buy GE products you will all regret it. I just wish I would of read feedbacks on this brand beforehand, it would of saved me so much money and headaches.

I bought this washer in May of 2012. By June of 2013 the motor went out 1 month after the warranty expired. Now here it is less than two years later and it seems to have the same problem again. This unit only does 6 loads a week. Will not buy another GE product again!!!

GE HydroWave GTWN4250DOWS - Haven't had it long enough to break - it seemed pretty new when I bought the house last year- but I can say that the controls sure do suck. If you change your mind after starting the cycle and the tub has already filled, too bad, all that water efficiency will go down the drain as the tub empties and refills just because you changed the cycle from "jeans" to "towels and sheets". Nope, no clicking through the cycles, no way to get back to where you were in the cycle, one wrong move and you are starting all over again.

GFWR4800FWW - This washing machine has a terrible way to drain water out the front. A compartment is opened up, tube unscrewed and water is suppose to drain into my bowl. Water drains under machine, onto floor and any open spot on the machine. GE sent out service man who agreed and said he'd talk to GE. GE refused to do anything. I filed a complaint with the BBB and a ** called from GE who would not help me - just kept telling me to read the manual and don't worry about standing water. He hung up on me when I asked for someone else. After spending $1200 on a machine GE could at least give me some help.

We recently purchased a top loading GE Washer. We are planning to purchase another washer because this GE washer is SO BAD! It doesn't wash the clothes very well, because it doesn't use a lot of water. Can't add softener or it will stain the clothes. Worse of all... clothes get caught on openings around the bottom of the fins, the fins are to rotate the clothes. The clothes snake around and get caught up in each of the three fins. It takes a long time to free up the clothes, and it's not pleasant bending over to free clothes at the bottom of a washer. The clothes gets so tight, it started cracking the fins. We called for help. All we got was an extra set of fins. We will never buy GE again!

Purchased the GE front load washer model WCVH6800J1WW from a local family owned appliance company 7 years ago. It began leaking water out of the bottom about 2 years ago. Tried all the suggestions in the Manual in the trouble shooting section. No luck. Now began shaking violently and making an extremely loud noise during the wash cycle. When I opened the door at the end, everything smelled of burned rubber and there was smoke in the air. After I took everything out I tried rotating the drum with my hand. It is obviously warped and completely ruined. After the fact I've found numerous similar reports. I agree with all of the others who state they will never buy GE again!!!

GE Steam Washer GTDS820EDWS - The washer does not have enough water to barely wet the clothes. The clothes are damaged and have severe deep creases and nothing will remove crease and still soiled. I sent video and was told this is normal.

I purchased the GE front load Model gfhwh1400d0ww in August 2013. Today it was diagnosed with a bad drum seal, which was causing leaking. The repair will be $575. Why in the world does GE not warranty seals longer than 12 months is beyond me. I use the washing machine about 4 cycles a week, I use the HE soap. A part that cannot be damaged by user error should be covered longer. I would not recommend GE products. If you do purchase, make sure to buy the extended warranty. My previous washer dryer set was Kenmore and it lasted 15 years, still working when I decided to upgrade. What a mistake.

I saw all the posts for this washer not draining clothes and having the clothes wet. GE service came out today - my washer is 1 month old today! My clothes sometimes drained fine and other times were wet. The problem is that my machine is in the basement and my drain is elevated about 5 or 6 ft above the washer. This requires the extension drain which the store provided. However their drain is too narrow and is not a GE part. Service ordered me the drain that came with it plus the extension kit. Also I was told that the washer needs to be set for a high drain hook up and it wasn't. So glad it was an easy fix. I love this washer. PS he told me not to use auto sense because we have a well and you need 80 psi of pressure and we only have 50 so the washer won't fill on big loads. Hope this helps.

Purchased this machine from Lowes and within months of having it, it stopped spinning. Our clothes would come out soaking wet. It would also reset itself so a 30-40 minute cycle would last 60-90 minutes if not longer. Called to have it fixed and someone came out and ordered a new part, which consequently cost more than the washer originally cost. Luckily it was still under warranty. Within a few months the same exact problem started happening again. By now the warranty had expired and we were not having it fixed again. Needless to say we will be going shopping for a new washer this week. We will NOT be purchasing a GE model. Please stay away from these washers.

We bought a GE front load washer and dryer 6 years ago. It was our first new ones and we were so happy. Our previous pair belonged to my grandparents for 30 years so we were happy to have new ones. 3 nights ago, my home filled with smoke as the bearings went out. On this machine, the bearings alone can't be replaced, the whole tub must be replaced and we can't afford the 500 dollar repair. Wish we had the 30 year old washer back!!! Never had to repair it. What happened to major appliances lasting. This washer is a piece of junk.

GE Profile Washer Model #PTWN8050M0WW - Washer is rusting on each side of the liquid soap dispenser. Why? It is 3 yrs old, but I noticed it last year.

Well I just bought my new washer at Lowe's and I love it, no problems!! What's up with not knowing about how much water, they all have the size load you choose!! So I just wanted to say I love mine and boy I do a lot of laundry!! Oh by the way I bought the dryer too!! Love them both. 5 stars.

We bought a GE washer and dryer in May of 2014. We liked the look of the machines, but were never really satisfied with the wash. Laundry still seemed to smell when it came out. But in February 2015 the washer stopped working. We called GE and were set up with a 3rd party repair company (A&E Factory Service, about whom I will be writing further reviews). After 4 visits and 2 replacement parts they informed us that the warranty was void and that we would be charged for further service. At this point we are so incensed that we want to dump the appliances on the street in front of the showroom and sue for damages, but at least if we can dissuade others from considering purchasing GE our experiences will not have been totally in vain.

January 2013 I purchased a washer/dryer combo laundry center from GE for my vacation rental in Florida. After a few months my cleaning person was telling me black tar marks were staining my white sheets. Over the course of the year I had 3 service calls for the same issue. Only being resolved temporarily. After numerous phone calls with GE customer relation department they decided to replace the unit with a new one at a $800.00 cost to myself. The rep assured me this was not a common issue (actually she said she never heard of this problem), so I chalked it up to having a lemon and what were the odds of it reoccurring with a new machine?

Purchased a GE washer 3.9 with agitator February 13 from Lowes. The agitation is so slow, one could compare it to hyper sensitive delicate cycle. I haven't call to replace it yet because of the weather conditions. But I will not ever purchase another GE anything again.

Adora washer model GHWN5250DOWS - Absolute garbage from the get go. First (first as in from the day it was delivered) it leaked water inside the drum constantly so unless you immediately removed the clothes after the wash cycle, they would be too wet to be handled by the dryer (they came in a set and the dryer is nearly as bad, made loud squealing noises which required service). In the course of a week the washer will be half full of water, maybe or maybe not. The service tech came out and repaired; kinda sorta, now it sometimes leaks and sometimes doesn’t, you never know.

Bought model PTWN805OMWW on 9-1-11. Broken down April 2013. This washer has no agitator. The floor plate inside the basket came completely off - The screw was shirted off. The washer had to have a SEARS repairman service it. He was great. Seven parts that were needed to make the repair were estimated at a cost of $1882.99! After much complaining to the GE customer service dept., the cost was greatly reduced. The machine broke again on 12-8-14 leaving the machine full of water. That was a simple repair to reconnect a hose that my husband was able to fix. The machine broke again tonight, 2-18-15 just like it did the first time! We are over 50 with no one in the home but ourselves. I follow directions and do not abuse my appliances. No other machine, except a GE PROFILE I purchased in 2000, has broken down on me, ever. This is NOT THE MACHINE TO PURCHASE!

The GE HydroWave washer does not clean clothes and it takes forever to go through a cycle. My GE Stove- burners do not cook evenly. When I set the oven to clean it melted the plastic burner knobs. Burner knobs turn on just by rubbing next to them. Dangerous! Gas fumes. What is wrong with GE Products.

I’ve only had this washer for 1 month. After buying it brand new it broke. It started making a loud squealing noise then a clunk and the drum stopped spinning right. It spun super slow and left the clothes soaking wet at the end of the cycle. I’m very unhappy with it, and what’s more disappointing is that I didn’t have a washer for 4 months before buying this one and now I’m out a washer again.

GE Stacked Washer-Dryer Model #GTUP270EM1WW - I've had GE appliances for over 38 years and they have been very reliable, except this one. Total scrap. Purchased November- December 2012 at Lowe's. A few months after, on the spin cycle it sounded like a helicopter. Called service and they sent out a service tech. Ordered a new motor because the bearing was bad. Waited a long time for part. Wrong part came in twice. Finally they sent me a whole new appliance, installed 6/24/2012. Now this one is doing the same thing. GE said I have to pay for service call, $89.00, and either free part or labor and 25% off of other. My wife and I are on SS and we paid over $1000.00 for this scrap. We need help.

One purchased as an Xmas present, super capacity, washer only fills 1/2 with water, and the rinse mode will only fill 1/4 full with water in super wash (if that), the machines, because of improper amount of water will wad your clothes up in a ball in one corner of the machine, then it will go off balance but the machine won't shut itself off, it will slam itself around your laundry room trying to break your plumbing pipes and flood your house, even after you manually shut it off it still fights to continue to run before finally shutting off. If not the machine will continue to run using your electricity never able to correct the balance until the cycle runs out of time, now you have to manually pull and re-adjust the ball of clothing and use more electricity to now put the cycle on rinse & drain but if you don't manually add extra water to the rinse cycle, it could continue to pull & tear up your clothes and go off balance.

Clothes come out in a tangled mess, ruined many long sleeved blouses, undergarments and uniform pants. Twists pant legs, I untwist & smooth out then placed in dryer thinking wrinkles will relax after dried but the drying only set in wrinkles. Re-washed with same results. I wear uniforms for work and need to be presentable. Agitator motor went out, agitator stripped. We are paycheck to paycheck household and can't afford 250.00 a year in repairs. Paid lots of money for this washer thinking if the washer was highest quality only to feel like it was the worst choice possible. Dryer does fine, no complaints, but washer is a huge disappointment. Not a good choice. Huge fail. A lemon.

We have had our front loader washing machine since October 2014. It is now February 2015 and the P.O.S. is already leaking!! Really? I found this site and saw nothing but negative reviews... Really alarming!!!! Why the hell are they still making P.O.S. products? I am very disappointed. Luckily it is under warranty but I will never purchase another product from G.E. again. The clothes don't come out clean or smelling clean. They end up stinking if you accidentally leave them in the washer for more than 2 hours. I was smart enough to figure out to leave the door open after every wash or it smells like mold. Poor design and I am embarrassed that I didn't do my research before I bought my washer and dryer. Everyone needs to know about this and G.E. shame on you for not even caring enough about your consumers to fix the quality of your products. Obviously, sales is all you care about.

GE sensor dryer - This dryer has one loud buzzer. It's supposed to have a varied volume but it doesn't work but at super loud. The lint trap in my mind is too small. Every time I open the dryer after a load dust balls all over the floor it is so annoying. Also I had GE come out two times and they told me that dryer vent is just fine. It concerns me that it could be a fire hazard especially after doing a load of towels and the large amount of Lint. The lint also collects on the door. Hate this dryer.

The towels do not wring out through the cycle. It's very loud and it's so annoying. It shakes a lot. So much for saving energy because you have to rejoin or redo loads. It's supposed to do large capacity but sometimes clothes don't get cleaned.

First new washer dryer set & was hoping last. The first dryer just barely made it past the one year mark. Lowe's exchanged it and I was grateful cause warranty had just expired. So I get home and they don't match, two different shades of white. Not a huge deal but so much for a matching set. That dryer lasted about 6 months. Now using one on loan. The other day the washing machine quit working. Bought new, delivered and installed by Lowe's. There is a brick in the bottom, generic counter balance is all I can assume. It came loose and beat the inside and under part of the washer to death. Makes me sad that I worked so hard to purchase something so poorly designed. I'll never buy GE products and will inform as many people as I can.

We also bought a GE HydroWave washing machine after the agitator in our Kenmore stopped working and couldn't be fixed. We also have had the same problems that others have had. Not enough water to wash the clothes, and not enough agitation to clean the clothes. If you put more than 4 towels in a load, it won't spin out properly, and you have to wring out the towels. Very frustrating!!! We've only had the machine 3 weeks, and we're ready to return it. Back to square one. :(

GE Hotpoint Washer Model: HSWP1000M2WW S/N ZZ182666H - We bought this machine for my father. He passed away so I took since the Sears Kenmore was almost 13 years old. What a mistake that was. Almost every load gets off balanced. We race to stop it. I broke my damn toe on one occasion while racing to to stop it from banging around. It has a large load capacity but will only fill below half full so I wash more times with it. New issue, it will fill and wash but won't spin. It will only fill 2-3 inches of water in the Rinse cycle while trying to wash the clothes. What's up with that?

Just bought and delivered and when I went to use it sounds like a Harley Davidson in my basement! It's grinding metal on metal it sounds like! I am not happy and I hope I can send you this video that I took and put on my Facebook! I want a new machine that doesn't sound like a defect.

I bought a GE washer/dryer combo about two years ago. After a year the transmission went and it sounded like a helicopter landing in our house every time the washer was in spin cycle. They sent out a technician who took the whole thing apart, said it was the transmission, and said they had to order the part but didn't put it back together. They didn't come out again till weeks later when the transmission finally came in. After arguing multiple times, they finally replaced the machine with a new one.

Since my husband and I bought our GE appliances (fridge, stove, over the range micro, washer, dryer), we have had nothing but problems with them. The washer in particular is the biggest pain in my behind. To start with, the washer has always leaked via the rubber seal on the front door. It was so small however, I never noticed since it would catch the drips at a seam and it wouldn't never end up on the floor. I only noticed when the seam started to rust!

Gtwn8250ws washer - Low water levels, does not get clothes clean, leaves odors in clothes, sometimes will not even saturate clothes let alone have high enough levels to rinse. Does poor on stains even pre-treating. Most problems could be remedied if you could override and rinse the clothes.

Husband in a disabled vet. Called for repair on washing machine. Repair stated the magnet switch needed to be replaced. Part on backorder. Finally arrived and installed, machine still does not spin out water properly. 2nd call, now states the motor needs to be replaced. Ok, still doesn't work. 3rd call, now it appears the ball joints need grease. 4th call, now it is the transmission. Ok, enough. I paid the difference traded in for a new machine.

GE 3.9 CU. FT. TOP LOAD WASHER MODEL NUMBER GTWN4250D1WGE 3.9 CU. FT. TOP LOAD WASHER MODEL NUMBER GTWN4250D1WS. THIS MACHINE IS AN ENGINEERING NIGHTMARE! I have many complaints about the washer, BUT IN GENERAL IT DOES NOT GET THE CLOTHES CLEAN, DOES NOT RINSE PROPERLY AND HAS A NASTY HABIT OF DESTROYING CLOTHES! Under this last sentence I can also add that energy efficient it is not! It will take time and much writing to state as to exact what many things are need reengineering.. It was purchased on 11/13 with a 5-year Lowe’s warranty. Lowe’s is sending a repairperson on the 15th to determine if it can be fixed. What I really want answered: Is there any way I can get my money, or part of my money back or a replacement machine that works? Or is there someone with authority that can rectify the situation without a lawyer?

We purchased a GE washer (GTWN2800DWW) from Home Depot on Saturday, December 14 because our old one broke. Home Depot doesn't actually stock the appliances, so a GE-representative company delivered the new washer Friday, December 20. They refused to remove our old one due to "corroded lines" and so could not install the new one. They also didn't stock 8-foot hoses (which even the delivery guys said is ridiculous, as most houses need them). When my boyfriend hooked up the machine himself later, he found that it was broken. All the knobs were stripped and the machine wouldn't even turn on.

Spent a grand on a high dollar top load washer 6 months ago from Lowe's. Bought the 5-year extended warranty to go with it so I knew I wouldn't have to deal with a broken washer again. Regret every bit of it!! The washer has broken twice already, it's been 4 weeks since the repair guy was out. I was told we had service scheduled the following Monday for the replacement part to be installed, repair guy didn't show up so I called GE and said repair guy accidentally marked my case resolved and the appointment got cancelled.

We bought a pair of GE washer dryer. The washer was vibrating so much that it sounded like a plane was landing in the house. Within 1 month, the drain pipe broke. Apparently the threads were worn out during installation. So, the service guy blamed it on the installation guy. Didn't offer anything to replace the ceiling tiles of my basement, which were ruined by the water leak and flooding. The agitation and louse noise never stopped but got worse. It became so bad that the speakers on the family room wall behind my laundry room were shaking due to the vibrations. I kept calling but GE customer service didn't do anything besides keep sending totally worthless service guys, who could not do anything. They would not wait till we run an entire cycle to see the problem. They would check the balance by touching the washer and leave. Finally I started complaining openly on their facebook page. They got embarrassed and took my complaint seriously.

GE HydroWave action washing machine terrible washer! Agree with all of the above statements and have had all the same problems. First month, GE replaced a part recalled. Third month, washer is shaking everywhere. GE advised a pallet - done 6 months? Fabric softener dispenser broken, GE will not replace calling it cosmetic. 7th month bleach dispenser filled with rust marks, GE claims no responsibility as this is also cosmetic.. Clothes are filled with rust spots another unknown spots! Computer top does not work I hear later, instead of saying 47 minutes at 7 minutes et cetera, defaults to a six minute wash cycle which does not work.

The top loading GE washer, the one with no middle agitator, is a dud. My clothes come out still dirty and with fuzz all over the colored clothes. I have to double rinse and power rinse in order to get a poor cleaning at best. So much for economy! Don't buy this machine!!!

We purchased a GE Profile washing machine Model PTWN8050M0WW 3 years ago and it is already needing to be replaced. The tub stopped agitating, and when it did engage to spin it made a terrible noise, so we called a repairman. He inspected the machine and found that the gears (which are plastic) have already worn out. The cost of the transmission repair kit to replace the worn parts was over $400 and the labor was $250. He further stated that the last time he attempted a similar repair on this type of machine he ended up having to replace the tub as well which cost an additional $200. We naturally elected to replace the machine. That is not much of a life of service for a washing machine that only receives light use for two retired adults.

This has been the worst washing machine I have ever had. Water level too low, clothes are all tangled and just doesn’t clean clothes, piece of junk. I’m having to wash clothes twice just to feel they are clean. 3 months old.

GE - GTWN4250DWS. If you like soaking wet clothes at the end of your wash cycle, you'll love this washing machine. It has taken me as many as 4 wash cycles to get the water out of some of my clothing. I am only able to do loads half the size that I use to do with my 25 year old Maytag and it has nothing to do with the size of the tub. I followed all installation instructions so that these issues could be avoided. This machine has been a huge disappointment. Who knew doing laundry could be so frustrating. If you have an older washing machine I would recommend you hold on to it until it can no longer be repaired, no matter the cost.

GE Hydrowave washer - From the day I purchased this machine it has never worked correctly. It will start filling, then stop. Push the start button, and it empties. Now you start over, and add detergent again, because it drained out. It does this 25% of the time you use it. Other times you just can't get it to keep filling. And heaven forbid you open the lid once it has started. It will automatically drain. And, it is impossible to talk to a real person at GE. I don't want to spend hours emailing a machine. I want a few minutes with a real person. GE is no longer the company it once was. They have absolutely no interest in assisting the consumer.

I purchased a GE washing machine in February 2014. I am now on the 3rd repair call for the same issue. Washer gets off balance and during spin cycle it agitates so hard the walls are shaking. Repair person is able to "re-set" my washer but here we are a month later and it's doing it again. GE warranty only covers parts and repairs, not replacement (unless a repair person deems it non-repairable). Obviously the machine is faulty but they keep "putting a band aid" on the problem. In turn I have to take off work to have the repair person come out.

My family and I bought a brand new washing machine (model: GHWN8350D0WS) from Home Depot on November 1, 2014. From day one it had issues. It would go into a pause, which the manual tells you is normal, and never come out of it until you pressed start. This only happened occasionally so we thought it was a fluke because sometimes it would work. However, 17 days after it was installed it went in to "pause" and then "sense" and then just quit working. We called for service repair that day and waited 6 days for someone to come. The service repairman updated the software and said it was good to go. Six days later it did the same thing. I called repair and they couldn't get out for a few more days. When they did come, they found that the whole motherboard needed to be replaced along with a hall sensor. These were not parts they normally keep in their truck so they would need to order them and come back out (keep in mind this is a brand new washing machine, installed a month prior). They scheduled me for 11 days later. The day before they were scheduled to come out they called and said they had to cancel and reschedule.

I used to love my old GE washing machine back in the 'ol days when it didn't have to be HE-compliant, it had an agitator to clean the clothes properly and we had phosphates in our laundry detergent. The washing machine I purchased 4 years ago (WPRE6150K2ST) is hideous! I never liked it from the first day. You have to fill the clothes only enough so that it gets below the water line because if you go by their instructions, you'll have laundry detergent all over the clothes and the clothes still have dirt. Furthermore, my whites have all now turned gray; they are no longer white. Because there is no agitator in the tub, my clothes NEVER come out clean. It's frustrating that I have to agitate the clothes in the water first before I let the washing machine take over. All it does is swirl the clothes around that my sheets get all tangled up and I have lint everywhere. I literally want to throw the washing machine out the window.

Purchased a new GE top loading HE washer in January 2012. Thought it would be environmentally prudent plus safe on water bill. Wrong! I have to rewash a lot of loads because this machine does not get items clean, especially towels and larger items like blankets. There is dark residue on fleece blankets and our white towels are now gray. Why? There is not enough water generated to wash out the soap. And clothes don't smell clean. I end up going to the laundromat to wash larger items to get them clean. Now that the warranty is over, I am ready to start dumping an extra bucket of hot water into my washer to help it wash my clothes. Anyone tried this and not wrecked the machine? What a waste of money. I want my old Maytag back that had a real agitator and I could fill to the brim with hot water.

GE washer GTWN4250DWS - Purchased this machine in 2012. Agitator broke off after a few months. It was covered with a 5 yr agreement we had bought and was repaired at that time. The thing has broken again. This time cust. service calls it customer abuse and it isn't covered (I was washing a mattress pad). Such a ripoff!

We purchased a GE washing machine model GHWN4250DWW in November of 2012. After having a front loader that left the clothes smelling like they came out of a dirty locker room, we purchased this top loader hoping for better results. The clothes do smell clean which is a plus, but they don't look clean. There is soapy residue spread around on many items of clothes. The amount of liquid HE detergent used is 2 tablespoons as noted on the bottle. I have tried doing smaller loads of wash, below what the directions on the machine paperwork calls for. There is no difference on the clothes. I always use the super water level to get as much water as possible to clean the clothes. I am now starting to use an option on the machine which adds a 2nd rinse and spin. The results are 70% better. The time to get a load of wash complete with this extra setting is 1 3/4 hours. This is too much time and more electricity, plus more water which is what is needed in the first place. This washer fails in getting clothes washed and rinsed successfully.

Purchase a top load Washing Machine 2 years ago (model PTAN9455MGG) and the transmission broke. When we purchased the machine the first one we received leaked from underneath as soon as we tried it. Replaced it and 2 years later, same problem. Poorly constructed unit if the transmission dies that quickly. Try to find a customer server phone number on the GE site. Clearly they don't stand by their products.

When I complained new washer would leave clothes wet after spinning out and washer would not fill enough to wash clothes, I was told to use just a tablespoon of detergent to clean a large load of clothes and that as high as GE washers fill. How can you clean a load of clothes with just a tablespoon of detergent and not enough water to wash or properly rinse them? GE repairman said this was normal for GE Washers and put on a pitch for an extended warranty. The washer is now over a year old and still stinks. Why do Home Depot sell junk like this? Never will I purchase another GE product or recommend it to anyone.

Purchased this product brand new from Lowes. Within a month the washer started making a lot of noise like it was off balance. We called Lowes who put us in touch with GE. We were told to tilt the product back because sometimes water builds up and caused it to become unbalanced. Okay??? I thought this was extreme odd but accepted what they said and tried this. This did not work. I called GE again and scheduled an appointment for the tech to come out. He found that indeed the washer was unbalanced and working improperly. He ordered a part and told us GE would be in touch. GE never called. I called GE and made an appointment which was a week away. Now I am weeks without my machine. I have four children and a spouse to do laundry for. I have to go to the laundromat daily.

Wow!! I thought it was just me but everything said about this machine is true. I wash all loads on hot water, extra rinse & highest water level. It takes forever to do a load of laundry. Clothes are very twisted & left with lots of lint. So much that the water line became plugged and we had to have a plumber out to remove the clog from the drain pipe. We are considering putting drain in the pipe occasionally.

WHDSR316G2WW - Constant problems starting with strange noises, squeaks, poor washing. Service people seem to say poor performance is normal and expected. Apparently a computerized machine is not supposed to work. No one is accountable, no one is responsibility, it seems to be my fault for selecting the machine. I have been obamaized.

We purchased a GE washer and dryer from Home Depot on November 19, 2012. The washer is model #GTWP2250DWW and the Dryer is model # GTDP180EDWW. The washing machine has never cleaned the clothes and has never filled with water to a level sufficient to even wet all of the clothes put into it. After numerous calls to Home Depot shortly after purchasing the machine, they referred us to GE who in turn dispatched a technician. The technician did not put any clothes into the machine or run it through a full cycle. He simply ran it through a fill cycle, proclaimed the machine was functioning properly and reviewed with us the instructions for operating the machine which we had already been through many times on the phone with Home Depot and which we had been following to the letter.

GE washer/dryer model GTUP270EMWW - I purchased this GE washer/dryer combination a couple of months ago. A few weeks ago the washer began to make loud noises when washing clothes. About two weeks ago, it was really banging and shaking. I looked inside and my clothes were wrapped so tightly around the agitator I could barely untangle them. I took some of the articles out and turned the washer on again. In a short time I heard the same loud banging noises. Looked inside and the clothes were tightly wound around the agitator again. I took out more clothes, and tried once again. Same thing happened with very few clothes in the washer.

This dryer (Model GFDR485EFMC) broke on me the second day of use. It took GE 6 weeks+ to repair (at least I hope it is finally working properly).... along the way they had back-ordered parts, accused me of ripping out the moisture bar, changed an appointment time at 7pm the night before, sent the wrong info after they offered to extend the warranty 6 mos., and refused to replaced any appliance within the first year of purchase regardless of their inability to repair it in a timely fashion. Both the dryer and GE as a company have been unable to perform in a satisfactory manner.

I bought a NEW GE Washer and Dryer from HHGregg in March of 2014; I have called for service issues 3 times regarding NOT being able to use Fabric Softener due to it bleeding all over the clothes. They did have the audacity to ask if any clothes had been ruined and when I responded "I just have to keep re-washing the laundry" they stated well as long as it is not ruining clothes it's really not a big deal... EXCUSE ME! Do you know how annoying it is to re-wash what is supposed to be CLEAN laundry??

After 18 months of owning the GE PROFILE TOP LOAD WASHER 4.4 CU.FT., it has been nothing but a disaster! Oil and water are leaking from washer. When the washer is spinning it sounds like an airplane taking off.. (honestly, that is not an exaggeration). In the midst of the rinse cycle it just "times out".... At the end of the drain and spin cycle it starts adding water and it does this continuously so the cycle never ends!! Certain cycles do not work at all so I have to choose an alternate cycle.. (i.e. short cycle does not work any more so I have to choose another cycle). It does not clean clothes very well and I often have to re-wash the load. The washer also moves and shakes during cycle! Today I called for a service technician to come look at it and he told me to try not to use it and if I do to never leave the house while it's running... REALLY?! I am totally shocked at how horrible this washing machine is...

I bought a washer/dryer in april 2013. The dryer has stopped working. And it isn't even paid for yet! Thanks a lot ge.

We shopped around and bought this to replace a 14 year old washer that started having issues. Now we have more issues. First thing we noticed is this washer will not rinse clothes clean unless you always use the Power Rinse Option. This machine is constantly off balance, nearly every load (whatever the size) makes it thump and jump and rattle around. In the last 3 days it has been off balance so badly that it has displaced the entire tub inside the washer so it rubs the inside of the case. The plastic lid that caps the inner and outer tub is broken in two places where it has contacted the frame of this washer. I have taken the front off both times and there are two little ears that sit down between 2 sheet metal bars, apparently there to keep the drum from moving too far to the right or left (and also to hold the shipping rod in place). The off balance situation caused one of the ears to bend and the entire unit (Drum is suspended by rods from the upper frame of the unit, which is thin sheet metal that has bent from the off balance conditions) had shifted over about 3 inches at the bottom, causing the belt to rub on a hose in the bottom of the washer.

GE - model# GTWN4250M Hydro-Wave Energy Guide Washer. I Hate This Washer! We purchased a brand new GE Energy Guide Washer from Lowe's. We Bought this Quality Washer anticipating it would last at least 15yrs. My washer does a very poor job of getting my clothes clean. I have tried everything and nothing works, even running the same load 2-3 times and comes out the same way. Dirty!!! Since I have had this Washer many odd things have happened.... Same problems as everybody that have complaints/reviews about the GE Washer. Not enough water, Sluggish Agitation, Very Wrinkled Cloth and leaves lots of lint on the clothes that you just washed and very Dirty Clothes.... Not Clean Clothes!!! This Machine does not Clean. I would get rid of this machine but like everybody else it's too expensive to buy a new one. I Paid over $600.00 for my GE but, I will never buy "General Electric" Brand again. Soo!!! Bye GE.

My touch screen stop working, I ordered the replacement part #3850EA4011A. They changed the part so it now has four ports and the old one has three. I called and asked what's the deal with this and I was told "Call a repairman," "Now we have an adapter," or "you need to do this or that". It crazy they send you a replacement part that's not right.

Do not purchase the GE Profile washing machine with the little low agitator. There is no water setting, so you only get what water level it deems and it is never enough. I have scum all over my clothes, and have to hand wash to get off. I hate this washer, and really wish GE would come pick it up. Of course, unless I pay for a new washer, it will continue to pretend to wash my clothes - a really crappy product. Do not buy this, even if it's free! My other GE products are much nicer. Hey, GE, bring me something that works. Thanks.

GE HYDROWAVE model #GTWN4250D1WS. DO NOT BUY THIS WASHER!!!! Worst washer EVER!!!! Extremely low water level!!! Can barely wash just one set of sheets!!! Forget large loads!! Lucky if you get a SMALL load washed! Of course we purchased the extended warranty & the repair person came out said that's just the amount set by government standards!? I have to drag my water hose inside to the washer to put enough water in it just to do a medium load!!!!! Also the "computer" part of it "thinks" more than it washes!!!

I bought a G.E washer in 03/03/2014 and have had nothing but headaches with it.... It doesn't wash clothes, clean clothes, go in the soak cycle without the button being pressed. Fabric softener won't release the softener even though the softener button cycle has been pressed. Water left in the bottom of washer after cycle is finished even though the lights are all off. I'm about ready to pull my hair out. G.E. replaced the washer last week and replaced it with the same product model #GTAN5250D1WW and same problems all over again.

GTWN4250D0WS - Bought this washer from Best Buy about 18 months ago. Now makes squealing noise in spin cycle. A washer should last longer than 18 months. Do not buy from GE. I have a refrigerator where the ice maker stopped working after 2 years. They obviously make junk and it appears to be a corporate trait. GE used to be a brand that you could trust. People say "buy American" and when you do you get poorly designed, poorly manufactured pieces of junk that don't last. Do not buy GE.

I bought the a washer on November 2011. The washer start having issue after a year and a half. The drum broke after in less than 3 years. I research the issue and like is a bad engineer design. I contacted GE on 6/22/14 and they tell me they can help me only with a discount. The washer model is WCVH4800K0WW. I think this is very bad product where GE profit selling a breakable device in less then 3 years. Thanks for your help.

We purchased a brand new GE energy star washer and dryer from Lowe's when we bought our new home in 2010. We decided to get a quality machine in anticipation that it would last us 15 or so years. After 2 1/2 years, we had multiple issues (spin cycle did not work leaving all water in machine and clothes soaked, not washed properly) and had to have the motor replaced. This cost us only $80 for the service call. An 'additional part' was ordered and we were supposed to have a follow up, but no parts ever arrived and no one ever followed up. After the repairs, the machine worked well for awhile but we began having the same issues a few months ago.

I purchased a GE Washer- Model # GTWN4250D0WS July 2012... Right away within a few months I had issues with the agitator breaking because it spinned way to fast!!! And it was fixed under warranty with GE's service repair company. I believe it was the MOTOR that was replaced... I was told by the service tech then that the motors that come with the washers were not good!!! Well, here it is 2 years later and the motor went out again! I am very, very furious about this because I paid a good amount of $$$ for this washer (like $600)... I should not be having issues with it this soon, not for another few years or so anyway!!! I have spoke with 3 appliance repair companies who said this model with GE is very bad about the motors going out within the first few yrs...

This is the second GE washer I have purchased in the past five years. The first was a low flow. I couldn't give that one away. The one I have now is a GE GTWP1800DOWW and it doesn't fill up with water and it is suppose to. Yes I unplugged it and cleaned the filter and it still will not fill up without me standing there and resetting the switch. Oh and the agitator broke after about a year after the warranty went out. I have put enough money in repair parts to send both of them dryer included to college. GE does not bring good things to life.

We bought our HE top loading GE washer about 4 years ago. After a year, we started smelling an odor about our clothes. I researched online and found some washer additives call "Smelly Washer" and Smelly Towels" products that seemed to help cut the soured smell in our clothes. Even so, when the clothes came out, they don't smell fresh. It seems now those products are no longer working. I phoned GE today to ask what to do about this problem and my nice case manager said it couldn't be their machine and it had to do with the water flow into and out of the machine. I explained to her that our plumbing was just changed to copper piping a couple of months ago. She said it had more to do with the source of the water.

A GE top loading washer that was 16 months old, stopped spinning then stopped agitating, rinsing and spinning. This machine had extremely low usage - average 2 loads per week. A local technician came out and the motor had blown. GE Consumer Affairs began sympathetic stating that should not have happened so soon.

Purchased this machine and the base. Always thought something was wrong with it because of the out of balance issues we had with it. The machine wouldn't spin out the water, the water ran into the bases, ruining several shoes that we stored. The noise got louder and louder, and within the week: smoke, and the smell of burning. We pulled out the warranty paperwork since we had an extended warranty and called the company only to discover the company dated our warranty to when it was purchased probably by the store and not by us as the customer, therefore, no warranty. Called a repairman who said to scrap it. What an expensive lesson to learn. GE just found themselves rated with Frigidaire.

I bought this from Lowes. Two years later, after some of the loudest wash and spin cycles in my life. So loud that I had to turn on subtitles while watching videos two rooms away with a closed door. Plus the main tub seal failed exactly two years and ten days after installed by Lowes. After some effort to find someone to service it, the local GE repair person said to not bother, they are hard to work on, unreliable, and the same parts typically fail time and again in shorter and shorter times. He offered to work on it but he advised me to set in on the curb and buy another machine. It's two years old, started out as loud and annoying and is now about to end up on the curb with the rest of my household trash. Very frustrating.

Purchased a brand new GE153 washer and dryer hydro wave. Also would like to add after my experience, couldn't find not one good review. Not one. GE needs to take this washer off the market. Anyway, used the washer for the very first time and it was extremely loud, banging around, sounds of metal scraping or grinding. You could hear this throughout the entire house. I had no idea what was going on. Long story short, upon reviewing, this washer is unacceptable and falsely advertised. Really thinking about suing. My God, it's brand new.

I have had continuous problems with the GE Profile top load washer that I have had for 3 years. I even bought an extended warranty. This was to no avail. This washer has ruined several black and white pieces and I am at my wit's end. Please advise what I can do other than suing the company for compensation for clothes and the machine.

We purchased a front loading washer & Dryer 5 years ago. I always thought something was wrong with the washer. We purchased the extended warranty. I had the repairman come out right before the warranty expired and he said "I was loading it wrong". The water leaking into my pedestal was a non-issue according to him, the shaking was a non-issue according to him. It was all because I was not loading it full enough and accurately enough. Well, 3 months after the warranty expired, it started rattling, loud noise on spin cycle, burning smell and smoke coming from it.

NEVER, EVER consider buying this washer. It NEVER uses enough water to clean your clothes. It NEVER agitates enough so that the clothes cycle from top to bottom. It NEVER fills the washer with water for the rinse cycle unless you select "second rinse. " It only "spritzes" the clothes with a few drops of water for the rinse. Worst of all, the water temperature selection is a FRAUD ON THE CONSUMER! If you select "Hot," the hot water will indeed enter the machine for a few moments - THEN cold water comes on to finish filling the machine.

GE Hydrowave - The worst washer I have ever owned. Clothes come out with some type of dirt residue, and one spin does not sufficiently spin the water out of the clothes. And you can forget about the sheets/towel cycle, it never completely spins out water. I was shown, by a GE tech, a small plastic box on side of tub that fills up with soap scum and dirt. This is released back into the wash. He told me to use a product called Affresh to dissolve it. Well that didn't work neither did a host of other products including degreaser, vinegar, bleach, etc. My machine is less than a year old and I have had 2 service calls already without satisfaction.

We purchased our GE front loader and dryer 7 years ago. Last July, the gasket shredded and we had to pay $150 for a new one, including labor. Yesterday, I went to put a wash in and during the spin cycle, it started making a loud banging noise along with smoke and the smell of rubber. I had a friend of mine who used to work for GE take a look and said that it looked like the drum and some other part needed to be replaced and that one part would be about $300 and another about $400. I called GE and they would not help me at all.. but said they could schedule someone to look at it for $99. I said "forget it". We ended up buying a new LG top loading washer.. It will be here on Saturday. I will never buy a GE Front loader again.

We purchased this unit (GTWN4250DWS) from Lowe's 3/16/12. Within 6 months, the motor burned out. Service was done under warranty and resolved. Thereafter, intermittent problems with electronics hindering the unit's operation. Finally, 5/6/14, unit fails to start as if no power related to electronics. Given my experience and the poor reviews written on this unit, I'm surprised GE has not make a recall. I'm very disillusioned with GE product and performance. Chances are high I will never purchase a product from them.

In 2007 when I built my new home, I purchased a GE Profile Washer and Dryer, believing that they were reliable appliances. I had left behind in NJ a 17-year old Maytag machine that still worked like new. After only a short time I began having problems with the washer; it would "time out" during the rinse cycle. I had a repairman come more than once; unless I could recreate the problem it could not be fixed. This has been an ongoing problem that has now become worse. I will never purchase another GE product.

My GE washing machine is 7 years old. It made a loud noise and smoke was coming from the drum. I called a repair person and he said the bearing went bad and I would need a Rear and Front Tub and Basket. Parts were going to be almost $900 and labor between $200 and $250. So I called GE on 4/28 and explained that is unacceptable for a product only 7 years old. They told me they would sell me the parts for $235 and give me a credit of $100 towards the labor or give me a discount on a new washer.

We purchased a General Electric He Washer Model GTWN4250M1WS in July 2011. In early April 2014, the washer began leaking from the bottom. A local repairman spent about 45 minutes evaluating the problem. He enumerated several items that need repair, most of all specifying a transmission problem. Also, he said the the cost of repair would be worth more than the machine itself. I contacted GE with the details. A customer service rep responded, offering a discount on a new washer or assistance with the cost of repair. Our contention, however, is that a washer used by a family of three should not fail in less than three years. GE will not replace the washer or repair it free-of-charge. My wife and I do not want to pay to have the washer repaired, especially after noting the high frequency of repair ratings for GE washers - both top and front loading - by a well-known consumer magazine. We will continue to press GE for full repair or replacement. Needless to say, we will not purchase a GE product in the future.

Prior to my present washing machine I have owned six top-loaders and one front-loader over a span of 49 years. Only the Westinghouse front loader was a problem a leaking door seal. The rest of the machines Maytag, Hotpoint, Kitchen Aid, Kenmore and Whirlpool all were passed on to needy families for extended lives when replacement washers were purchased. None ever went kaput.

The washer (top loading hydrowave washer - energy star) stopped agitating and spinning, 2 months and 4 days after warranty went out. I didn't bother trying to force them to repair my washer. If they can't build a washer that lasts longer than 1 year, I surely don't trust their repair technicians. I will start making the repairs myself, unfortunately. It really angers me that an American company, with a CEO who is put on an important advisory board for the White House (Jobs Council), is in charge and influencing decisions. His job policy, build shoddy products so people will have to buy more of them - great for the economy, creates jobs because people have to replace them more often. Not really a forward thinker in the realm of environment and economy, long term. He should be spending his time standing behind the integrity of his products. Oh and by the way, he's venturing into aviation. If he puts as much integrity in his aviation sector as he does in his appliance sector, take a train!

This is the WORST washing machine ever made! DO NOT BUY this machine. There are serious design flaws that GE will not address. To begin with, there is a space at the bottom of the agitator that catches bra straps, hoodie straps, panties and then tangles the garments with anything long sleeved so that pulling the clothes out is like untangling a ball of yarn. There is not enough water to clean the clothes and the agitator is PLASTIC so there is a soap residue which must be manually washed off. It is unreasonable for a consumer to be expected to wash an agitator in a washing machine!! GE customer service claims that since the washer is operating as designed, there is nothing they can do. When pushed, they will offer 50% discount on another one of their inferior products. These are serious design flaws that cannot possibly be known to the consumer until after purchasing and using the washer. I was a loyal GE customer for 35 years - not anymore. I am totally disgusted with GE.

Purchased in 2011 from Home Depot and paid over $1300.00. We've been paying through the nose ever since. 3 repair calls and 3 years later, having to replace both units for failing abysmally to wash, dry and the repairmen who are "certified" are worse! Thanks GE for screwing me out of my hard-earned money!

Have a GE washer model number gtwn4250dw less than a year old. Have had 2 tech look at it. Makes loud banging noise. Case # is **. Call GE; they said there was nothing they can do to fix it. The tech wrote up it washes all right, just the drum hits the cabinet on the washer and there is no way to fix it. He also said if replace, the other will do the same thing. The washer needs to be taken off the market. If I could afford to buy a new one, I would and it wouldn't be a GE or from Best Buy. I feel like it should be replace with a better washer that ain't going to make these noises.

I Purchase a GE frontloader washer & dyrer (complete set black) in 2007.Model # WCVH6600HBB Purchase extended warranty that expire 10/2014. Paid a tech 96.00 to come tell me this machine is done! Spinbasket Drive is separating from Shaft Assembly is the problem .

I purchased the GE #GTWN4250DWS machine and have had nothing but problems with it since day 1. The repair company has been out numerous times to fix it and now it is broken again. You name it and it has broken (agitator, tub, motor, start button, etc.). I will never purchase another GE appliance!
