GE Washing Machines Reviews

I have a GE washer that is three years old. I called a repairman out due to the loud noise it is making. He said that the transmission is going out and said it would be a $250.00 repair. He also stated that this was the second one in a week he had a call on. He told me to call GE and if they would not help, let it run till it stop and buy a new one. Am I the only person that feels a washer that is used for two people should last more than three years? This washer is situated behind doors in my kitchen; because of the noise it makes, we cannot stand to be in the kitchen while the washer is running. As far as that goes, we can't stand to be in the living room either.

I have a GE washing machine that is less than 2 years old and it is broken for the second time. I think GE should replace this machine because it's a lemon.

For the past six months, I have been requesting for a change of product I had purchased in the Famsa Furniture store located in Bell Gardens, CA, California. The problem is that I had bought a washing machine model #WWSE5240GWW in Dec. 2008 and since I have had it, I only have problems with it. The belt broke, the transmission busted and now the motor is jammed and I had to ask the store to please help me out with this problem and they're in no case on me asking and asking. I don't get help no matter what I've done, so if you guys or someone could please help me out.

I bought a GE washer in Sept. 08. It never seemed to clean the clothes well and it made a very high squeal noise. Sometimes, the water would remain even after the spin cycle and soap deposits were left on the clothes. I called for service and they said that it needed a new transmission. After 3 months of still having problems, I called for service again and was told that it needed a new transmission again. This new washer now has had 3 transmissions and again, it's not working. GE refuses to replace my washer. It's only 7 months and they said that they will fix it (again) even though it will cost them almost double this time to fix it than it would for me to go down the street to buy a new one. I can't understand the logic in this. Here I am trying to keep our family's clothing clean and ready for my children to go to school each day and it now has become impossible. What can I do?

On January 16th, 2009, I had the washer GE AS108145g delivered. It made noise from the get go. I went to the store; they told me I had to talk to GE Service. They wanted me to wait and break it in. It was breaking in noise. After 20 minutes of the runaround, I told him, "I demand a service call." The service call got canceled due to the man being out sick. The next day, he came and said, "It needs to be broken in." The break was tight and he proceeded to open the top to stop the spinning about 20 times. He left.

I purchased a GE washer in 6/08. It was a defective unit. GE sent repair people here 3 times. Parts were replaced. Still, it was not functioning correctly. GE agreed to upgrade the model and deliver a new machine. New machine was delivered today. It leaked water in my driveway and the model was the same and the push button to start the machine was worn out. You could see fingerprints from usage. The delivery was refused. The delivery people took the old defective machine as well. I have no washer machine.

I have a GE washer/dryer that has a service contract and the parts were ordered by the technician and delivered right away. However, they needed 2 people to do the job. They made an appointment without telling me and when I changed it, they did not come and then they had no record of the service call. I was furious and rescheduled again for today. I called this morning and confirmed that they are coming and when no one showed up for hours, I called again and was told the appointment was for tomorrow. They are incompetent and the service is just terrible. You call the 800 line and either get hung up on or get someone who just does not know what they are doing. This costs the consumer time and money.

I bought a brand new GE washing machine (#whdsr316gww). Everything was working fine until the spin cycle was over. My clothes were still soaking wet, I mean completely soaked. I thought maybe I selected the wrong cycle so I tried it again with the same result. We told GE to come and take this away. We will never deal w/ GE ever again.

I purchased a front load washer and dryer in February 2007. It does not spin properly; therefore, the clothes come out soaking wet. Also, the front seal has torn. Our clothes come out stinking and not clean at all. Take a cloth from the washer that has been washed on hot, on the longest cycle, put in a bucket of clean water and wring it out and your water is dirty. We are on our 4th washer. The store owner replaced the first 3 and GE did bring out the 4th one on April 9, 2009. Guess what? This piece of junk does not work either. It took me 7 hours to do 2 loads, with trying to get them to spin and drain.

The gasket is torn! It was purchased on 3-03-08 and today is 4-17-09. Only 46 days after one-year warranty. I have seen many people on this site complain about GE appliances. However, after I called GE's customer relations department, they have agreed to send a tech out at no charge to repair my washer. So great for me and nothing but nice and wonderful words from me about GE! Thanks GE!

When we built our house in 1991, we purchased all GE appliances (dishwasher, cooktop, oven/microwave, refrigerator, washer and dryer). Within a very short time, we began to have problems with everything one after the other. Within the last two years, we had to replace our washer and dryer. Now my washer will not spin. It won't do anything but fill up with water and drain. My clothes are full of water when it finishes. I am so frustrated with GE appliances. I really don't know what to do. Can someone tell me what has happened?

This machine had problems from the beginning of purchasing this washing machine. Even up to now, I have experienced nothing but the same. Always had problems of spinning the water out and leveling, even to the extreme of knocking holes in the wall because of such. I contacted GE and they sent a tech out - Mike **, tech #**. They replaced several things. When I initially called them (and I would have contacted them earlier, but I was experiencing health issues which took precedent over this purchase) they did extend the warranty out to 2-1-09.

I purchased a GE washing machine (model WBVH6240HWW) on March 19, 2008. The machine is leaking, will not spin, clothes not cleaned and ruined. Water flooded the basement. Lowe's told me to contact GE for repairs since it is under warranty. GE sent a technician on 2 occasions. The machine is not working. It is doing the same thing. I requested a new washing machine. GE decided to send another technician, but he could not fix the machine due to ordering electrical parts. When the parts arrive, I have to contact the technician for an appointment to repair the defective washing machine.

Purchased an LG washer and dryer in 2007. 1.5 years later, the machine floods the laundry room when it is draining. I checked the drain hose and it's okay. I called GE for service. They gave me an appointment for two days later, along with the company name and number. The next day, a different company calls about servicing the unit. Before confirming, I called GE and now their records only shows the name of the new company that called. So I confirmed with the new company. The morning of service, GE called and gave me the name of another company that would be providing the service. They would call me within 48 hours to schedule an appointment. This is where we are now - NO WASHER AND NO SERVICE!!!

The bearing went out on my GE profile washer. When I had an appliance technician come out to check it, I was told that it would be almost $500 to fix it. I looked around for the part I needed and the GE part was $336. Well, what GE doesn't tell you is that Frigidaire’s parts fit their stackable washers and dryers. I ended up purchasing the needed part for $190 and that included shipping and taxes. Had I not looked into different comments from other users, I would have ended up buying a whole new washer or a very expensive part. I want to make the public aware of a much less expensive option.

Like many other customers, I too have had nothing but horrible experiences in regards to fixing my GE Washing Machine. My machine has been broken since Dec 2008. I have had the repair man out to my home more times than I can count. He told me that he informed GE that a new machine was necessary. GE had the audacity to tell me they will not replace my machine until they see if it will be cost-effective for their company. I explained to them having a machine not working for almost 3 months is not cost-effective for me. I also stated that I have children under the age of 5 and going to the laundromat was not an option, as well as that I will not go and shouldn't have to because I purchased their machine not to.

I purchased a GE washing machine (Model # WHDSR209G2WW Serial #DM125999G) for my mother in Jun 2007, and not even a year later, the knob broke and needs to be repaired. I called and spoke with Mrs. ** ID# ** and Richard ID# **, and both of them stated that for a service charge of $79.00, they would have the GE service technician come out and repair the machine. After inspection of the washer I noticed the knobs are stripped, and after more investigating (I went to Home depot and looked at the other GE washers), a number of the knobs at the store were also broken. Another consumer in the store stated the knobs on GE washers always strip and are hard to replace. This is not a good thing and the customer service was not good either. I have to say that I thought GE was the way to go, but experience has taught me better.

I bought a GE washer in 09/08. It broke down in 01/09. It has been three weeks and it is yet to be fixed. They told me it needed a new transmission and computer. The parts have been shipped to me. They are here, but the tech never showed. Supposed to be here 8AM-5PM... It is now 10:11PM. They said he would arrive. In the beginning, the customer service was good. But now they are telling me it is their way or no way. I am not able to contact the headquarters. They said email, snail mail or fax... no phone calls will be accepted.

My wife and I had a Maytag washing machine that had repairs needed that were too expensive to fix, according to our GE service contract. We were told to pick out a replacement washer, BUT IT HAD TO BE A GE WASHER. They would not replace it with another Maytag (even though our Maytag was only 3 years old). So ok, we thought no problem. We picked it out, had it delivered on January 22, have had a major balance problem with it, and no one seems to know how to fix it. GE's service SUCKS. Their people lie to you and their supervisors have ZERO PEOPLE SKILLS when it comes to SATISFACTION.

I purchased a washer from Home Depot in 2007. Under the manufacturer warranty which was 1 year, this washer has had 2 washer tubs, a motor and other parts. I purchased the extended warranty. The washer broke down again in December; another tub and motor was installed again on the washer. After installing the tub and motor, the tech realized that more parts were needed. The parts were installed in January 2009. I went to wash a load of clothes the same day it was repaired and I had to recall for services. The water would not stop running from the machine. A tech came out 4 days later to correct the problem. Before the tech came out, I spoke with someone in the Replacement Department to ask them to replace this machine.

My husband and I purchased a brand new GE Profile Front Load Washer and Dryer around April of 2006. We bought them after taking a long time to investigate the different brands and speaking to sales reps at Lowe's, Menard's, and Home Depot. After using the machine for only about 6 months, I noticed a tear in the rubber gasket/rubber seal around the opening of the washer door. This tear became worse, but my washer still worked fine, so I disregarded it. I then began to notice a mildew building up on the rubber seal after about 8 months of using the washer. I tried to remedy it by using bleach and a toothbrush - this only worked for a short period of time. I continued to try the bleach, but the mildew was winning.

Regarding a GE front load model WBVH6240FWW - I bought this as a floor model from Lowe's. I used it for a year and a half with no problems just for myself. Cycles seemed a bit slow. Had some grandkids move in and the problems began. I discovered that there was a drain not mentioned in the manual behind the front panel. After the first problems with the washing machine not draining, we seemed to have regular problems. Whole pieces of clothing sometimes reached the filter. If you have this machine, the first thing to check should be this filter. Why is it behind a panel without a user serviceable feature? Seems downright consumer hostile to me.

I called GE to have my gas dryer repaired. I asked if the techs are prepared to service a gas dyer and repair gas lines. They replied yes. The tech showed up to my home the next morning, opened the dryer, looked inside and 3 minutes later said, "that will be $95.00 please." He didn't look at the lines, he didn't check any connections and 3 minutes later $95.00. I still have a broken dryer and to top it off, a $95 bill for what?

We purchased a new large capacity GE washer and dryer set in Sept. ‘07. In July ‘08, both units failed. We had to wait a week to get a service man out to repair them. He had to replace the circuit board on the dryer and the transmission on the washer - fairly major repairs on units less than a year old. Within the next two months, the dryer's circuit board was replaced two more times along with one other part we were told was causing the circuit board failures. Why did it take three blown circuit boards before they pinpointed the cause? The washing machine was inspected during one of those visits also because it was squeaking like it had done before the transmission went out the first time. We were told that it was fine.

GE front loading washer streamed water out of detergent tray onto the floor. It streamed down around the door and almost appeared as if the door is leaking but it is not. The problem turned out to be caked up powder detergent in the detergent tray area. Remove the detergent tray by pushing down on the tab at the rear of the tray and it will come out easily. This will expose the caked up powder detergent. This can be easily broken up and removed with a long screwdriver or stick or whatever. If possible, spray some hot water into that area so that all the residue is washed away. My beef is that although this information is on many websites, GE service was not forthcoming with this very common problem and solution. Instead, they direct me to service. Helping consumers instead of bilking them will result in more sales and profit. GE, don't be weasels! The real moral of the story is, don't use powder detergent in the liquid detergent tray. It will mess up your machine and eventually it will leak!

I purchased a GE Quiet Washing Machine on November 3, 2007 from Famous Tate Appliance Store in Tampa, Florida brand new. On January 28, 2009, the machine stopped washing. The agitator wasn't working. The machine would fill with water, then drain. It wouldn't spin or anything. On January 29, 2009 I called the store (Famous Tate) and obtained the extended warranty information that I purchased when I bought the washing machine. I called Quality Appliance Service Inc. who is contracted with Famous Tate to schedule a repair appointment. It was scheduled for Friday, January 30, 2009, between 10am and noon.

I am writing this letter to inform you about my most unpleasant, if not horrible experience with the General Electric company and their handling of my situation. I had purchased a GE washing machine from PC Richards about 11/12/07 (a unit costing hundreds of dollars) and purchased the extended warranty for a three-year term for an additional $311.58. This washing machine is located in a commercial building, but is used by my residential tenant in an adjacent building. Since this time, this machine has broken down three times and has been serviced by GE repair people.

We bought the new GE front loading washer and dryer from Lowe's because of the company name. But since buying them, I wouldn't recommend them to anyone and if I could afford it, I would get rid of them and buy another brand. The washer consistently overflows, plus does not always spin the clothes properly. So I have to set the cycle to spin and drain and then dry them for extra time because they are still so wet. I am disgusted by this more than I can say. I'm sure the policy is too bad. You bought them, you're stuck. They were over $1,000 and we had saved up for them.

I purchased this washer and the complementing dryer in 2006. Luckily for me, I purchased it from Army and Air Force Exchange Services (being military) and also got the extended warranty and service contract. I have had to have both the washer and dryer "band-aided" about 3 times each. In addition to the lint trap issues and drum problems, as of right now, I am trying to get the warranty company to buy me out and simply give me my money so I may purchase a new unit. Currently, the rubber gasket is ripped and using the washer floods my laundry room, living room and kitchen. I have been trying to get this resolved since October and today, the service contractor through the warranty company berated me on the phone and said I needed to figure out what to do to get bought out because it was too expensive for him to fix. He basically told me that he would "figure it out" so I could get a new one, because fixing this was not worth his time - If only he had told me this when I made the original claim in October after it took him 3 weeks to come look at it. This machine is a piece of crap and I am really disappointed in GE. I expect more for my dollar. I don't expect perfection, but I don't think I should waste my money on a product that fails so regularly.

Front loader washing machine is ripping clothes. Apparently, it is not just me having this problem.

A GE repairman came out to the house and quoted me $120 to fix my washer (1 year and 3 months old). The $120 is a labor charge, as the part was covered under warranty. We scheduled an appointment for Saturday morning. The repairman showed up on Friday when my wife was home. He fixed it and charged her $168. She didn't know what he had originally quoted and paid him. I called GE to complain, and their records showed that he charged us $160.99. It is bizarre that GE doesn't realize that the repairman was also stealing from them. They, of course, did nothing, putting me out $48.

I purchased a GE top loader washer in July 2008. My first service call was because the machine did not dispense hot water. The technician said that due to the energy saving devices installed on it, it was not designed to dispense hot water.

I purchased a washing machine in Sept. 2008. It went out in October 2008. As of Jan. 14, 2009, it still has not been fixed. The repairman has had the part since Dec. 23, 2008. I have called GE at least a thousand times and they still won't make the guy to come out and fix my machine. We have tried to be understanding but almost three months later and close to $600 spent at the laundromat, I cannot get GE to do the right thing or the appliance center that is responsible for the work. I took off work and have been home three different times in the last two weeks for him to be a no show and GE still won't do anything about it.

My GE washing machine (new in 2006) flooded two rooms on Sunday. After reading the most recent post in this thread, I checked the hose that triggers the switch to stop the incoming water supply, and, sure enough, a small amount of lint had disabled the mechanism completely. Lennar used all GE when building this house, including the worst dishwasher that I have ever owned - very slow, cleans dishes only when loaded to half-capacity; a GE dryer with an alarm buzzer that can't be turned off; a GE refrigerator that has had a number of service calls, most recently for the mechanism that closes the flap after dispensing ice. When the tech showed me the part, it was rusty and lousy as though it came from an old junkyard appliance, not a two year old unit in a climate-controlled house. He was amazed and embarrassed at the poor quality of both the part coming out and the part replacing it. My GE oven takes twice as long to pre-heat as did my 25 year old GM/Frigidaire, and one of the hot spots on the cook top can't be trusted to heat at the lowest setting. My entire family and circle of friends are well aware of the declining quality and reliability of GE appliances.

The front seal around the door ripped and sent water running all over my kitchen floor, flooding the mud room and the kitchen (ruined every thing that was in the stand underneath - soap powder, irons, you name it. Every thing was soaked and ruined). I have seen several others have had the same problem as I have had. GE should recall these washers and fix the gaskets. I will never buy another GE appliance again. Wish I could afford a new brand. I would go to another brand.

I purchased a new GE washer in 2006 for my new home. The washer malfunctioned Dec. 28, 2008 and flooded my entire carpeting in every room. The poor design of the washer caused a piece of lint to stop the water control sensor, therefore, water continued to pour out of machine damaging my new home. After contacting the Water Damage Restoration Co. and my insurance company, etc. to take care of this mess, I contacted GE to let them be aware of this GE washer malfunction. They said they can send a service tech repairman to look at the washer but no help beyond that. I do not want the GE Washer. I will never purchase a GE product again.

Our 2-week-old washing machine, GE model WWSE524062WW, quit spinning. We called for repair and upon inspection, the tech informed me the motor and fuse are dead. This is not a surprise. They know there is a problem with this motor and they now have a different motor for replacement in this model. He wasn't sure he had one in the truck because they've been using a lot of them. Sure enough, he had to order the part. I was told it couldn't be sent for two days and therefore the service was rescheduled for 2 days out, which unfortunately conflicts with our schedule so we'd get bumped to the following week (another weekend without laundry on a brand new $500+ machine).

The front loading washer will not spin out the water in the tub. We have cleaned the trap three different times and have had to take the pump off and clean it also. The last time the pump locked up, it was full of lint. GE has a problem. Lint should not be able to get inside of a pump. This set is a year and a month old. We spent over $2000 for the set. We're thinking about throwing it in a big hole! We would not sell this set to anyone!

I purchased my GE Washer and Dryer in 6/07. The washer was always loud and shook but I thought it was just a front loader and would do that. Now a year and a half later, the seal around the front ripped and water got everywhere. I paid $300.00 for a service guy from American to come fix it. He said the drum was bent and was probably like that when I bought it, and I should call GE for some help because the problem still wasn't fixed. I called GE and they said they would give me the parts for free but their service guy would have to fix it.

It is a piece of crap. In two years, we had to have the seal replaced three times. Then after the warranty was up, two more times at a cost of $225 each time. Then it broke again, so we bought a secondhand one for $80 and it worked better than your crap. I still owe a lot of money on these appliances that I will pay but I or anybody I can tell will ever buy your stuff again. And the sad part is in these hard economic times, you people don't even care about dissatisfied customers.

GE Case# 8788779 Pease, Nicole Model WLRR5000G0WW, serial LM900948G, I purchased 8/07 for new home, we moved in 10/15/2007 and began using. The plumber had a tech out before we moved in because not all of the packaging was removed and it was making noises. Then I call a GE for a tech back in April 08, due to noise. Then again September 08 for same noise and leaking. The tech now told me the machine's motor was faulty because it was not agitating. It was just balance. I said great because that was the motion the machine always made, it never did any other motion during the cleaning cycle. I thought it was cleaning, and all this time it hasn't for an entire year I owned it. Well, they said they would pay parts only. In the meantime, I have spent double electricity, double in laundry soap and lost clothes because they just looked dingy. I asked the repairman if I should continue to use it. He said only if you want to wear unclean clothes. It is ridiculous, after having three people out to set it up, repair from packaging, and then again because of same noise....no one tech noticed the machine wasn't working correctly since the day I received it.

Have a GE front load washer model # WBVH6240FWW and the matching dryer. Had a technician in a month ago at $150. Now I need to replace the rubber gasket around the door. Of course, my warranty expired 3 months ago. So that is no help. It has eaten several articles of clothing and ruined my daughter's soccer uniform. I thought I was doing something wrong, until I have seen all the complaints. Unbelievable that a washer of this price and reputation could cause so much damage. That last washer I had last over 20 years and only had to fixed twice. Maybe better technology isn't always the best. Will never buy GE again and have told everyone I know to do the same. Very dissatisfied.

Defective Washing Machine, Model# WWSE5240G1WW. One month old, loose tub. Service Technician tightened. Three months old, tub loose again. Service Technician replaced big nut. Six months old, front cover won't stay on. Sheet metal bent from regular use. Right front adjustable foot won't adjust. Threw a block of wood under it to level it. Service Technician said he'd order me a new foot. He didn't. Service Technician accused me of modifing machine, I did not. He had never seen a machine like this one. It showed. Was given a year's extension on warranty. Eleven months old, will not spin. Waited a week for service. Service Technician installed wrong motor, will have correct delivered to my home next week. Back to the laundromat!

My wife and I bought a GE Adora, front load, washer and dryer in '06. We have been having problems with the washer not rinsing the clothes. I traced the drain hose to the front of the machine where I found a screw off filter behind a screwed on panel. I figured out how to clean my filter and reassemble the washer but the clothes still get so wet the washer gets out of balance and won't spin on high speed (it gets out of balance and shuts down). The clothes remain soaked. I don't overload the washer, nor do I do anything out of the ordinary. This shouldn't be happening. We have relied on GE for many years and different appliances and we've never been this disappointed. I guess it's time to get the Kenmore catalog out.

When we moved into our new house in April of 2006, we bought a new GE washer and dryer from Lowes. After several months, the washer started leaking from behind. I didn't notice until our hardwood floors outside our laundry room started buckling. I then called the GE repair company and asked them to come out for service. The GE service tech told me that I was using too much soap and washing too many clothes at one time. I paid the service fee then cut down on my soap and amount of clothes per wash.

On Dec/15/06 I went into Brandmart in Kennesaw Ga, and got a pair of GE Profile Harmony Washer, and Dryer. About 6 mo. went by but in that 6 mo. I was finding my close with tairs in my closes. I did not no that it was coming from my washer, till I got a new package of T- sharts. When I washed them, Thats is when I found that the washer was do this to my close.

I bought the GE washer and dryer.The washer smells horrible. We pulled the rubber seal back and it was disgusting. It was built up with mold and mildew thicker than you could ever imagine.

I purchase washer & dryerProfile Series Washer #WPRE 6100 GI Wht Dyrer. Both installed 7/03/08 Clothes do non't come out clean Towels take over one hr to dry on high setting Always purchase Whirlpool never a problem for over 40 yrs Clothes came out extremely clean never one or over fordrying Very Dissatisfied and was mispresented both are not energy savers especially since washer had a yellow ticket attached about saving energy

First call motor was replaced and another part was replaced at the same time. They were called a second time wanted to charge us a service charge and I felt they should have made sure everything was working before they left but they did not cause they wanted to get paid for an extra service call while this machine was under warranty.

Clerk told me GE could not respond to a repair call for a NEW GE dryer for 12 days. Supervisor was no help at all. This was one of the most expensive dryers on the market, and broke the first day of use. Dryer under warranty. Nothing made an impression on the repair scgeduling people at GE. Terrible service, worse attitude toward the customer.

I cannot tell you how much I hate this washer and dryer....It smells like mold and mildew...takes hours to do a load of laundry because all it does is spin and spin and spin and the dryer is as bad... I could throw them away tomorrow and not miss a beat!

I bought a Ge Adora front load washer. The door seal ripped. i called and they would not replace it because it ran out of warranty. I read a lot of forums on this happening this should be a recall and replaced at no charge for customers this is a big problem. [The] sevice call pluse parts and labor is way to much. It is almost the cost of this washer. [GE] should be ashamed. It seems to be about $ not service.

GE Front Load Washing Machine Model#WHDVH626FWW will not dispense fabric softener and detergent drawer continually grows mold and mildew. I clean this drawer weekly to keep the smell from permeating the clothes that are being washed. GE need to design a dispenser drawer that will not grow science projects and cause foul smelling clothes

My Husband and I built a brand new home in fall of 2007. We purchased a GE profile top load washer and dryer model number WPGT9360E0PL. We have 3 boys who all play sports and we run a farm in our spare time so we bought a good set to take care of all of our laundry. It was installed in August and in October the morning of our Housewarming party the problems began. My sister stepped out on our back porch and noticed water coming out of the walls. The laundry room was flooded so bad it was spilling out of the outside walls.

Scheduled a service call with GE to obtain an estimate of what it will cost to get washer repaired. Technician shows up without getting anyones approval goes ahead repairs washer and charges $187.00 Called to get reimbursement on charges not authorized and GE refuses to go by their own written statements which is:

I purchased a GE washing machine from the Home Depot in Lisbon, CT on January 19, 2008. This machine was delivered to me on January 26, 2008. This washer was on sale so it cost me only $341.10 before taxes. At the beginning of June 2008, the washer wasn't spinning out, so I called GE and set up a service call. A technician came out on June 19th and tightened the Hub Nut and reset the board. It worked for 1 load. I called the technician directly and they came out again on June 24th. This time the technician replaced the split ring, flut washer and hub nut. This time the machine worked for about 2 weeks.

Purchased GE Front load washer Model #WBVH6240FWW and dryer set in July of 2006. Within the first 60 days we had are first repair of the washing machine not spinning the water out. The next repair was on the rubber boot just inside in the door being ripped. The service person whom I have to say is not the friendly person told us that we need to make sure we check the pockets of our three kids cloths since any little item can rip the grey rubber boot. The part was ordered and GE paid for a new install of the boot.

I purchased a ge washer and dryer at HH Gregg,Trussville, Al in June 2008. The washer isn't two months old and has already malfunctioed. It would fill up with water but would not agitate. Then it would drain the water then cut off. I purchased a mid priced washer but I actually thought it would be a good one. The GE repairman replaced the motor. And no matter what cycle you set the washer on it barely agitates. I am very unhappy with this washer. I can't believe that G.E. makes such a poor product. And it takes an act of congress to get a repairman scheduled. I made at least five phone calls just trying to get an appointment set up.

My GE water saver washer makes all of our clothing smell like sour moldy clothing after you sweat for about 5 minutes or more. I have called servicew 3-4 times with no relief, they tell me to run a supercycle which is 2 hours long with bleach or baking soda, however, this does not work. Nothing works. No save in water or electricity, and my son has asthma which the mold is dangerous to him since he has an allergy as well as my husband and myself. Our clothing smells horrible. More doctor visits and water bill goes higher.

My GE washing machine's transmission went out after about 7 or 8 years. The transmission has a 10 year warranty, but I also found like others that the transmission is covered, but I'd have to pay a service call and labor to have the transmission installed. Interestingly, I purchased a GE dryer at the same time as this washer and the timer went out on the dryer at about the same time as the transmission did on the washer.

Our new GE front load washer is ruining clothes. Immediately on receipt we had water all over the floor, called for service, tech found broken soap dipenser unit. Said it was the first time he had seen that happen. Part was shipped in the next week, then another week before it could be installed. Had to keep towels under the unit to mop up the water. Seemed fine. Now we have had three garments ruined, holes rubbed into them. The clothes are catching in the rubber seal and then the drum spins and destrys the clothes.

Our GE Front Loader has been repaired several times over the last 2 years. It has also eaten over $200 worth of clothes. I was told by a rep that mice might be getting into our dryer and eating a hole in the clothes. No sign of mice droppings in the clothes and the clothes are destroyed all year not just the colder months.

I have a Ge service contract for extended warrenty. I was trying to be compensated for a 999 washing machine and they wanted to compensate by only offering 529 model. I argued the two machines were not comprable in quality and function. After about a dozen and my own research I found information to support my case. I am still waiting for the payout and who knows how long that willtake. Bottom line how protected are you really when you purchase extended insurance? Shame on Ge for false presentaion of information and letting the consumer on a maze of unanswered questions.

GE front loading washing machine model WBVH6240FWW, will not spin, smelly mildew odor, will not work, all of the problems everyone else is having. Warranty is out and Lowes or GE will do nothing to fix the problem. They are misrepresenting this product and someone needs to take legal action for us all.

3 1 /2year old washer (ge) broke a strut ,boot, springs,etc. over 400.00 for just parts.This does not cover the pump that i replaced 1 month ago addtional 100.00 2 1/2 year old dryer (ge) heating coil shattered to pieces over 250.00 for parts. Now why did this happen? Such young appliances. Dryer went up in flames on 7/11/08. In my face to boot. Went out and bought another brand dryer. 7/15/08 the washer broker and flooded the basement. That was it for me.

I bought my GE Profile top loader washer on 7/06/08. It was delivered on 7/08/08. Today is 7/14/08 and it is BROKEN. The control panel went out and it stopped working right when I was doing a load. I reset it by unplugging it for 2 minutes like the manuel says. It started back up for 5 seconds then died out again. Tried to reset it and NOTTHING. Called GE and was told I can' t get it looked at until the 21st! Thats NEXT MONDAY.

I bought a new Hotpoint washer on Feb.23, 2008. On June 27, 2008, I was washing clothes and when I went to take the clothes out of the washer, they had water dripping from them. I tried to run them through a second time when I realized the washer wasn't spinning. I called the furniture store where I bought the washer and they gave me the number to GE. I called GE and they told me someone would give me a call back in 24 hours. On Monday no one had called so I called them. They informed me that it would be 48 hours when someone would contact me.

I am literally in tears of frustration right now with my GE Adora washer (two years old). I am so disappointed with the continual problems this washer has given me. As a single teacher, I cannot afford to keep having a technician come to my house, especially for such a new appliance that is breaking through no fault of my own. f I've been having problems with my GE Adora since just a few months after I bought it. Several items of clothing have been destroyed. Also, I am a one-person household, and I maybe use the machine twice a week.

My daughter and her family live in Pa. She had a G.E. washing machine that blew apart, no really, it blew the front panel off, and the machine was completly blown apart inside. lucky my grandchildren were not in front of it. We live in Ca. and have been in the appliance business for 30 + years and have never heard of or seen any thing like this. If you would be intresed in seeing a photo of this I will forward one to you . This was the strangest thing I have seen in the appliance world ,

We bought a GE Profile washer in 2/08. It was sold as a scratch & Dent but had never been previously sold and we were told that is was mechanically new-just cosmetic damage. After having this washer just 2 weeks, we had to call a technician out because the washer was not balancing in the spin cycle. The tech came out and adjusted something and we got a whole additional 2 months or so out of it. Then it began again...only much worse. Shredded chunks of plastic appeared in the wash (from the top of the gasket on the tub)the washer quit spinning altogether after almost walking through a wall. A tech came out and assured us that the shredded plastic was nothing to worry about and tightened some bolt and left.

Bought my washer and dryer when building a new house. 3 months later my blower quit working on my dryer. Took 3 months to get the part from GE. Then a year later, the washing machine drain pump quit working. No technician wants to work on it due to the problems with getting the parts. I am going to take my loss and buy a new set from another brand. Will never buy GE again. Dryer has always dried clothes with wrinkles no matter what setting I use. And, washer spits out black oil at times.

I wanted to provide some positive feedback regarding GE Appliances. I have had GE Appliances for years and I must say, in comparison to the other brands I have had I have found them to be extremely reliable and functional. I had a Maytag Washing machine (well documented problems) and replaced it recently with one from GE Appliances. I am happy to say it has been a dream. Going on my fifth year for my other GE appliance, a refrigerator, and no issues at all.

I bought a GE Front load washing machine from Lowes in Sept.2006. I didnt buy the extended warrenty. I thought that I wouldnt need it. Big mistake! The washer that I had before lasted 21 years.Anyway this one stopped working about 2 weeks ago.I called GE and had one of their Techicans come out to look at it,I had to pay him $65.00. He said that the main control board was bad and that it would cost me $530. to replace it. I was pretty upset because this was almost as much as the washer cost.So I called GE and talked to a woman in the Consumer relations dept. she told me that she could sell me the control board for $120.00 she did not tell me that one of their Techicans had to install it.

bought a washer and dryer about a 2 yrs ago. my washer started to stop on me i called GE and i was told to un plug the washer and plug it right back and it would start working it did but then it stop working (dead) on Aug. 2007. When i called the first time i did have a warrenty, when stoped working and i called again in aug. they send a technecen to my house he told me it the the computers chip that is put in the washer. It was going to cost a lot and my husband and i can't afford it. Its going to cost about 500. so i have been going to the laundrymat to wash. we decided to call someone else to see want can be done. he told us that all these kind if washers are having the same problem like my.

I called in March, april and May to explain that my wash machine was not working properly, they sent a service man 3 times to replace the belt on the pulley but as of May 15 the machine is still unusable and the frontline staff told me they were developing a special file to look at the problen and someone would call me in 48 to 72 hours. I called again and they said my file has not been assigned yet and that the staff were really busy but someone would call in the next few days. That was 3 weeks ago. I need your help.

I bought a new washer and dryer set on March 2,2008 April3, 2008 the washer broke down. Called and they sent out a repair man. Took over a week for parts. I was with out a washer for over a week that time. The middle of May it broke down again. Called GE they sent a repair man out.. parts were over 500.00 i paid 379.00 for the washer. Another week and a half later he shows with the parts and had all he needed but one part... the part that broke the last time it broke down.

Had a GE front load washer M# WCSR2090D5WW come with my new home purchase around 1/2006. Over the last few months loads have needed 1-3 extra spin cycles to get all water out of clothes. Multiple repair forums have highlighted the transmission problem, and from what I've read here, I am terrified. More than anything I hate going through the same hoop over and over again and that's what this sounds like. It might be the belt for me, though I'm getting more skeptical by the minute.

Purchased a GE washer a Lowes. It was eventually delivered, we then went to use it and our clothes came out soaking wet and the fabric softner dispenser didn't work. We called up GE and and they sent us a new fabric dispenser and told us that it should work.

I purchased a GE Washer from Sears in March 2007 and started having problems in August 2007 with loud noice a vibrating during the spin cycle. Sears repair came to repair the washer and I started having the same problem again in late March early April. I was told that my warranty had expired and had to pay for the repair.

My husband and I purchased all GE appliances for our kitchen renovation in 2007 from the Home Depot with a service contract warranty at the Home Depot in Manahawkin, New Jersey back in 2007. October 5, 2007 a service call was arranged to our home to repair the GE washer. I could not understand why a brand new washer would vibrate, leak water all over the floor and make so much noise. The service man said it was the transmission and that all he could do was replace the part.

I Bought a Fontload GE washer and dryer. I knew it was a scratch and dent place but i thought scratch and dent was just that, Scratch and dent. Well from the time they set it up it was shaking violently. He said it was normal. I called them a couple days later and said i wanted it fixed. they said to call GE. I called that number he gave me and a repair man came over. He said that shaking was normal and he didnt see a problem with it. (It feels like an earthquake in my house when its on spin cycle. The GE man said it shakes a little bit but i could reinforce your floor if i wanted. I saved up money to buy a frontload washer and dryer, i dont have the money to reinforce my floors because of a washer and dryer.

We purchased a GE Hotpoint washing machine on 3/31/08. First of all, we bought it from a local business and paid a little more than necessary thinking we could call this local business for service. The washer quit working on Sat. 5/3/08 - wouldn't agitate or spin. I called on Mon. requesting service. The business owner I bought from came out and looked at it but informed us he can't service warranties. The company has to send a serviceman from 40 miles away.

I think I wrote to you between July and August last year 2007, to tell you of the GE washing machine I purchased on Jan 2, 2007. By July it was unusable. GE finally sent someone out and they replaced the transmission and inner and outer tubs. This was September.

Our high efficiency front load GE washer has shredded garments on 4 separate occasions. The damange has ranged from about a 1 inch section of clothing damanged, to nearly the entire garment (perhaps 12 inches). Model isa WBVH5100HWW. GE and their awful insurance company refuse to admit there is a problem, and have been a real pain to deal with. They claim because there isn't a defective part that there is nothing that can do. It is obvious to me this means it is a design flaw in the machine which would be trivial to prove in court. Don't buy GE!

Our Front loader washer is 2 years old ( March 06 ) It has had 5 service calls. The motor was replaced at 14 months. then 2 months later another motor was sent to my house from GE when I inquired why the support person said to keep it in case I need the motor replaced again.It does not drain or spin the clothes adequately. We were told to open our unit and drain the machine by hand every 2 weeks for any lint or extra water that does not drain out. This requires us to unscrew the bottom of the front of the unit and hold a 5 gallon bucket under it.

i purchases both a washing machine and a dishwasher from home depot and GE in four months time has had to come out 4 times to fix the washing machine and still wont replace it. It shakes real loud and goes across the floor.My dog is terrified he wont even sleep in his room anymore.

I purchased a GE front-loading washer and drier just over a year ago. Currently the washer is holding a load of towels hostage. The spin cycle stopped working altogether, and the door will not unlock. Even after unplugging the foul machine, I cannot get the door open. The washer shreds clothes and leaves them wet and soapy. I dont know what the alternating spin directions or complex pattern of slow and fast spin speeds were suppose to accomplish, but the washer is not effective in removing water from the clothes. It is, however, very good at damaging straps and hooks, and twisted a long sleeve right off a pretty sturdy cotton shirt. I use the recommended amount of HE detergent and double rinse, then run through an extra spin cycle. Some much for being energy efficient.

We bought the new GE front loading washer and dryer from Lowe's because of the company name. But since buying them, I wouldn't recommend them to anyone and if I could afford it I would get rid of them and buy another brand. The washer consistently overflows, plus does not always spin the clothes properly. So I have to set the cycle to spin and drain and then dry them for extra time because they are still so wet. I am disgusted by this more than I can say. I'm sure the policy is too bad, you bought them, you're stuck. They were over $1,000.00 and we had saved up for them.

In 06-07 we built a brand new home and had all new GE appliances installed. In May of 07 the washing machine was replaced. The lower unit was cracked and it was spilling water all over the floor. The company did not object at all. We upgraded with model #WCSR2090 thinking we were okay. Within a couple of months I would find just a trace of water on the floor. Called the repairman and he assured me that the unit was not cracked and it was just a trace of water.

I have a high efficiency GE washer. From the first few months that I bought it, it has shredded my clothes! Then it started leaking water all over my laundry room floor. When I called to make a service appointment, I had to wait almost a week to get someone out. So that left me with 3 kids and no washer. When the technician came, he found a huge ripe in the seal around the door. Now, not even a year later, the same thing has happened. GE has not offered to replace any of my shredded clothing and again has me waiting 4 days for a service call. Not to mention that I have to pay 75 dollars just to have the guy show up. Whatever you do, DO NOT BUY A GE APPLIANCE!

I bought this washer on Nov 2, 2007, and the motor has gone out. Now I have been without a washer since the the 12th of feb 2008. On the 19th of feb, a repair man came and said the motor was bad. Now it is the 4th of march and they tell us that they have no idea when they can get a motor for this machine as they cannot even get a motor from the factory. This is costing me a lot of money having to pay to wash my clothes. This is a brad new machine and is unacceptable to me. I need some answers to this or for the washer to be replaced. I had to drive from where I live 134 miles, I cannot just take the washer back. Please give me some answers the washer model is whdsr316Gww seral # is rm160204g.

I bought a GE front loader washer and dryer Sept. '07. Nothing but problems. I had a tech out at least 6 times between Sept. and Jan. The machine wouldn't spin clothes out, wouldn't dump fabric softener or bleach, but would dump on next load--ruining clothes. It also vibrated terribly and would start and stop. Finally GE replaced the washer, but this one doesn't dump fabric softener either. I will never buy a GE product again.

Over the past 8 years we have completely remodeled our home. We purchased all new appliance from GE with the exception of the wall oven (GE did not make one that would fit our cabinet opening). The dryer required 2 repairs in the first 3 years and when it broke again we replaced it. The washer broke after 19 months and the repair cost was more than the cost of replacement. We purchased another washer. The dishwasher stopped working in a little over 3 years and after 3 service calls the repair company refunded our money. They said that they would not be able to fix it without completely replacing everything. We replaced the dishwasher. The over the counter microwave and exhaust fan combination has had 2 motor replacements in 4 years. The Profile refrigerator was just repaired at 5 and half years and still doesn't work. GE factory service is coming out again.

I bought a GE washing machine on 9/22/07. Since the date of purchase I have had the machine serviced 2 times.

Today I spoke to G.E. customer relations for the 5th time regarding a ongoing DEFECT in the washing machine I purchased just over a year ago. About 6 months after we purchased it the nut, that keeps the tub in place loosened. The service tech said that on some machines that happens. He tightened it but a couple of months later, it became loose again.

We purchased from GE directly a top load washer model# WPRE6100 13 months ago. It has failed, and I contacted GE. I asked them if I could purchase the extended warranty, and they said since the washer was out of warranty (30 days or so) and broke, they could send out a repairman for $80 plus parts, labor and tax. Or, for $302 they will fix the washer and warranty it for one year. I really feel that I had requested a fair solution to the problem, and that it was equitable for both parties. I have listed only facts here and am not using this forum as a way of punishing GE. But I want to share my experience so that others may use this information accordingly. Thank You.

I bought a GE WSH208HOWW washing machine May of 07. DO NOT BUY THIS MACHINE. The machine has a faulty gasket that is not properly designed. It has folds that hold water allowing for mildew to grow inside. The machine has stunk up my entire house. The smell is so bad that we cannot sleep at night and is probably contaminating our home with mold spores. A GE technician was supposed to show up today (after waiting 5 days for an appointment), but called to say he does not have a new gasket and is too busy. The next available appointment is 4 days from now. The laundry is piling up. The machine is a disgusting mess and should be recalled. I suppose the tech may be busy again next week. GE could care less.

We bought a GE front loader washing machine in January 2007. Almost immediately, the washer began to grow mold, and no amount of cleaning could get rid of it. I hated to call GE since the washer was still working. Then, in early fall, the washer started acting up doing things such as buzzing intermittently, clicking on and off. We signed up for the extended warranty because it was inevitable it was going to break down. In January 2008, before the washer was a year old, it stopped working all together. I called and set up a service appointment with GE. The repairman came and replaced the entire electronic panel and made the comment that the motor sounded funny but was still working. I was able to wash 2 loads of laundry, when the washer broke again. I again called for service, and the repairman diagnosed the problem as a broken lock mechanism and motor. He had to order the parts because they just don't carry parts around with them. He came out a third time to install the door lock mechanism and the motor. The washing machine lasted a little over a week and then broke again. It does not work at all now.

I had a GE Proflie Harmony gas dryer which stopped drying after three years. When I called Sears ( where I bought it) to come out and look at the dryer, they told me it would cost $700.00 to repair. The dryer itself cost about $1,000.00. The parts for this dryer are very expensive. I almost had a heart attack. Well at that cost it made more sense to just purchase another dryer since they were on sale for about the same cost. I decided to email GE since I also have the washing machine that matches the dryer, and 7 other GE appliances that I purchased all on the same day; but they refused to answer my email.

My 6-week-old GE profile washing machine died 10 days ago. I purchased it from Grants Appliances 6 weeks ago. There is no end in sight. Outsourced customer service at GE cannot deviate from their script and are therefore useless. Grants has been really nice, but equally ineffective. Is there any recourse? Can companies really get away with this?

I bought my GE washer machine through MIHomes. A month after utilizing the washer, it started making very loud noises during the spinning cycle. I called GE and they sent the repair person, which didn't repair the problem. After one week of use there were some metallic residue staining my clothes from the bottom of the washer. The next day, the washer would not spin. So I called GE again to have someone come and look at the washer. The repair person said that the inside parts needed to be replaced. I don't have the time to go to the laundry mat with four kids. I called GE and talked to the Supervisor that I would like to exchange it with a different model and that I will pay the difference of the cost, if there is one. They told me that they could not do that because of the contract. What type of contract is that? This washer is not even a year old and it is already breaking down. That is a defect. How can a good appliance break within two months of usage? I am very disappointed on how the GE supervisor handled the situation. The washer is defective and I, as a consumer, should have the right for an exchange.

I bought a GE Washer almost 4 years ago. Recently, it began leaking from under the tub. I called around and discovered it was most likely the transmission. Since this was still under warranty, I called GE. I waited 5 hours for a tech to come out (he was an hour late). He charged me $70 to tell me what I already knew; I need a new transmission. This took him all of one minute to figure out. Then, even though it was still under warranty, it was still going to cost me $250 to repair. Oh, but the part is free. A brand new one only costs $400. Give me a break.

We purchased a GE Adora front loading washing machine in March 2007. During our first week of usage we noticed our clothes and towels having a musty smell. The inside of the washing machine had the same smell. We used the high efficiency soap as recommended. We had a service tech replace the door gasket. That did not work. We tried white vinegar, baking soda, and bleach and none of these worked. Our clothes and towell still smell musty and GE has no concern for it.

In May 2006 I purchased matching GE washer 6240FWW and dryer from Lowes in Schererville, IN. In late January of 2006 I noticed my washer was not spinning out clothes. My husband went to move it to check the machine and it was so heavy he couldn't budge it. Here we found that the base it sits on was filled with water. Upon further investigation we found that the water had leaked into our finished basement and ruined some picture and also the ceiling. GE came out to repair the machine because it was still under warranty. They had to replace the seal(gasket) at the front of the machine -it was torn in many places. My husband finally fixed the ceiling and we discoverd it was leaking again. I had bought an extended warranty through Lowes so I called them for service. A man came a few days ago-took off the front panel and dicovered it is leaking at that same seal. It isn't shredded, but it is leaking and my base fills with water and the machine is filled with water underneath. Once again it has ruined my ceiling below. I also have the problem with the whites graying and our towels stink. It is pretty bad to take a shower and then have to dry off with a stinky towel. GE says there is no problem with this machine.

We bought a front loading washing machine (model # wcvh626ofww) about two years ago. We have noticed some of our clothes beginning to get tears in them from the laundry process. It took a while to discover that it was the washer and not the dryer as we don't dry the boys soccer jerseys. My son's jersey came out shredded recently after being washed. He is heart broken and I'm sure we are going to have to live with this as it was expensive to buy and it is over the manufacturer's deadline.

I have had nothing but problems with my new GE washer. It has been replaced once, and the new one has already had 2 service calls on it. The original was purchased in April 07 and the replacement in July 07. It's only Jan now! I asked GE about this, they basically say oh well, we will repair it until my warranty runs out and then I am out a washing machine. They were the most unhelpful people I have ever talked to. When I asked them why I should be satisfied with such a poor appliance they acted as if they were doing me a favor by fixing it! When I asked how many times I would have to deal with this piece of junk I was told it was case by case but they rarely had to replace machines, mind you they already had to replace one already. Never will I own another ge!!

I purchased the GE front loading washer model number WBVH6240 and dryer about 7 months ago. How stupid I feel, my 12 year old Kenmore washer worked fine, but I wanted a matching set, since my dryer had gone out. The washer worked great for about 4 months. Then the start button would not come on when pushed. I would have to push it several times before it would start. Then it stoped draining, I would have to set it to drain and spin,but now that has stopped working my clothes are constantly soaked and have a mildew oder. What is worse I can't find my receipt. I don't know if I should keep throwing good money after this bad machine. Will GE step up and take responsibility for their faulty merchandise?

My washer fails to drain water and spin. I've been without washing machine for almost a month now. GE ordered $600 of parts but clothes are still soaking wet. The tech says the only problem is a lid switch. He is wrong. We have a third visit this week. I doubt it will help. We want a new machine. The machine is less than one year old.

Purchased a GE Top Loading Washing Machine (Model Number wpre6150howt; Serial Number mm105695g) on approx. 10-17-07 From Lowe's. Within days the unit was not operating properly, not draining water from the clothes. After numerous calls and e-mails to GE, I eventually figured out that there was either a broken or missing part--a small cone-shaped spacer under the tub/agitator assembly that one of the girls on the help desk seemed to indicate was a familiar problem. Their repeated answer was to send a service person out to look at the unit, however all appointments were 2-3 weeks away. Who can go without a washing machine for 2-3 weeks? I eventually talked to their complaint division and demanded that the part be sent out to me immediately. They assigned it a case number, and a woman named Linette shipped me the part overnight Fedex. I installed the part and the washer worked fine for a few weeks. I monitored the washing very closely as the part appears to be poorly designed materially for the job of supporting the washing tub loaded with water and clothes.

We bought a new washing machine; it was delivered on 6/29/07. By August there were pieces of plastic in our laundry, and the machine was not draining properly. We called GE and had a technician scheduled to come fix the washer on 9/8/07. They sent out a local repair service, Mr. Appliance. They arrived on 9/8, verified the problem and needed to order a part. The part was ordered, and another appointment was scheduled on 9/28/07. The part was installed. For a few days our washer worked. It was again broken by 10/13/07, and the next available appointment Mr. Appliance had was 11/3/07. They never showed up. The excuse was the part they ordered was leaking in the box, and they didn't notice until they loaded it on the truck. On 11/15 they finally came out. After 3 days our washer was leaking all over the floor. The 28th they came out again to fix the washer and stop it from leaking. After another 3 days the washer was again not draining properly.

I purchased a GE top loader washing machine, model # WLRR5000G0WW in June, 2007. The unit has failed and simply will not start. There is no problem with the wall outlet or electrical circuit breaker in the home. The unit has the push button start; it just won't start. When considering the washer is still on original factory warranty, I called GE to request a service technician. What an exercise in futility; the GE service technician had trouble with the English language and generally was the Chief Apologist for GE. However, the service technician did state that I could go to a laundromat for 12 days or so, until a GE service technician could visit my home for a repair. Choose ANYTHING other than GE. In fact, use a washboard, because any such device would be more reliable than a GE Washing Machine.

Everytime we wash any kind of heavy items in our washer such as towels or jeans they always smell like mildew when they come out. We were told to put a cup of bleach in the wash and run it through a cycle but didn't help at all. I also had a shirt get ripped apart in the wash and leaving a little spots on our clothes from bleach staying in the washer. I think this is were the tiny holes in our clothes are coming from as well.

Bought the high end GE Profile washing machine. Twice in one year the motor failed. Once the pump failed, and then a printed circuit board failed. It showed on the schematic, but GE couldn't figure out what it was! They tried to convince me (I'm an appliance repair serviceman) that there was no such part! Finally when they admitted I was right they told me that part was NLA. The Profile wall mount microwave stuck on and nearly burned up! To anyone thinking of GE products I tell them DON'T BUY GE ANYTHING!

I purchased a GE front load washer and dryer in JUNE 07 and spent more money than I could really afford at the time. After reading about how energy efficient they are supposed to be since I have a family of 5 and do a lot of laundry, I went for it . WELL WHAT I MISTAKE I MADE! Mm towels have a HORRIBLE MILDEW SMELL; they are washed in hot water with plenty of detergent. I contacted GE about this problem; of course, there is no explanation. MY white laundry is also disgusting--never in my life have I HAD GRAY WHITES. THERE IS SOMETHING TERRIBLY WRONG WITH THIS MACHINE . I AM VERY DISGUSTED, AND I WANT SOME ANSWERS TO THESE PROBLEMS.

I purchased a GE washer Model 6260F and Dryer 515EF1 in April 2006. To date, 11/24/2007, the washer has had 4 service calls (a leak, noises, a moldy smell and not working) and the dryer has had 8 service calls (overheat/running way too hot and leaving black marks on materials and some of the marks can only be removed with Krud Kutter but not all marks can be removed). GE replaced the dryer in 9/2007 with the same model and it has the same problems and I have returned it within 2 months. I will never ever purchase another GE product ever again. Way too many problems.

I bought a GE front load washer, and all of my clothes smell like mildew. There is a mold that is in the washer. I called GE and they said to put bleach in the washer and run it through a cycle. I do that often and my clothes still smell sour. I have had many top load washers and have never had this problem.

I purchased a GE frontloader on or about 10/19/07. Since then I have had a repair man out 4 times to replace the motherboard, waterpump, struts and seal. That did not work so they brought me a new one that is doing the same thing (will not spin out). I have asked for a refund, and they said it is now past my 30 days and they can not give me one. The problem is that it took them that long to deal with the problem, and now it is my fault it is past 30 days. Also, has anyone figured out what those storage drawers are for because they are too big to hold laundry detergent bottles they are to big. So I paid $200 extra to make it look good.

We purchased a GE clothes washer approximately 4 years ago. Only a couple of months before the warranty ran out, the transmission in it imploded. It was covered under the transmission warranty (but only the parts). After an almost $200 labor bill, we again had a working washer. Now the transmission has apparently gone kaput again. The dryer we purchased at the same time gave us fits, too. We replaced it about 2 years ago when we found that the GE dryer was eating clothes. Of course, it was out of warranty as well.

Five years ago, we renovated our kitchen and replaced our appliances with all GE appliances. This has been a disaster. The refrigerator's ice maker has been replaced 3 times, still does not work properly. The washer and dryer has had numerous problems that had to have a service man repair, the microwave oven had to be replaced completely. THEN Thursday, 11/15, while I am baking for Thanksgiving (expecting 8 family members from out of town at my house for the week) my bottom element to my stove with the convection oven burns out.

We purchased a model 6240 front load washer from Lowe's with an extended service plan.

From early September until now my GE front loader washer, purchased in Feb '07, is not working. Since May i have endured 6 or 7 service calls. They replaced everything but the front door and yesterday replaced the inverter that controls motor speeds. Last night i was astonished to watch this machine spin out of control and launch into the adjacent dryer. I think its time for a new machine. Ge service reps are clueless .They don't know what is the real problem so they throw parts at the problem. Does GE read our complaints?

We have only been using our GE front load washer for 5 months. Already had 2 serious issues and 1 fix able issue. First one the not-friendly Sears customer service person said we were using the wrong detergent. It would not get out spin cycle. We were using the right detergent. That was an hour conversation.

We own all GE aplliances and purchased them new in 2004. Our washing machine has not completed the second spin cycle in over a year. It seems it would cost almost as much to have the problem repaired as it would to purchase a new machine during a sale. It is crazy, spending all this money on appliances just for them to break down. I will never purchace another appliance from GE!

New washing machine spins clothes bone dry until they are permanently-wrinkled. About ten pairs of $50 dress slacks ruined. I'm going to have to buy a new washer and dryer and the GE stuff (included with my new Lennar home) will end up on the curb.

In April 2005, we purchased the GE front loading washer and dryer at a cost of around $1600. Within one month, we needed service on the dryer.

Four weeks, two thermostats, and just today the dryer literally melted my cloths. Thankfully I was home or else it would have caught my house on fire.

I purchased a GE front loading washer and dryer in November. I have had GE Service in my home four times. First the washer flooded my basement, second because the fabric softener did not dispense, third because it had a computer malfunction which caused it not to lock or function and the 4th time because the seal around the door was broken and again my basement was flooded.

My husband and I bought a brand new front load washer and dryer. They cost way more than we wanted to spend, but we figured they would pay for them selves with all the energy saving hype. Well, they both eat our clothes! No matter what you put in there, something gets stuck between the spinning part and the still part of each.

My wife and I chose a front loader washer machine and spent a lot more money than usually wanting the best on the market. Unfortuately we have had the worst experience with the GE WASHER model WBVH6240. We are now fixing to try our 3rd washer. We want to stay with the same washer so it will match the dryer. They all cant be lemons can they? The unit will go into pause all by itself. It takes a day to do one load. The first unit we had the door decided that it was not going to close anymore so my wife had to lean on the machine to get it to work. What a mess.

We purchased a GE Profile front loader washing machine in April 06. The electronics are bad on it. It won't cycle correctly, stops several times mid-cycle, won't spin, sometimes won't agitate, freezes mid-cycle with the door locked and won't open, and always has water in it even though the pump runs constantly to drain it. I have been 2.5 weeks without my washer. GE won't send anyone to repair it because the authorized repair persons are all too far away (more than 50 miles).

I purchased a GE washer (WSXH208) and GE dryer - approximately 3 1/2 years ago. I never fell in love with the washer, it always smells inside, sour smell. Several days ago it started making a very loud noise when spinning, which by the way usually is extremely quit. I called GE and they sent a repair man to look at the unit, I wasn't impressed with his ability. I think they're just parts changers. He gave me an estimate of $470.00 to repair the unit, which by the way the parts are covered under GE. So....that's just for the labor. I could buy a new unit for what they want to charge me for labor?? I called to speak to a supervisor, which didn't care what I had to say. She stated well that's the price the technician quotes the price. I then cancelled my appointment to repair the unit. I've owned many washers over the years and they have lasted for many, many years without problems. So 3 1/2 years scares me to ever purchase a GE unit again.

I purchased the GE Profile Harmony washer and dryer In July of 2005. The clothes from the washer would come out twisted and in a million wrinkles not matter what setting I put it on and the dryer just can't get the wrinkles out no matter what setting I put that on. Also the clothes would be so hot that they would burn my hands. My dryer first broke in February of 06 there was no heat at all. Called for repair it took a week for them to come he ordered all new elements and a new mother board, then it took another week for him to come back and he dryer worked fine(still not getting the wrinkles out)till it broke again on April 11, 2006. Well todasy is May 1 and he has replace the mother board 2 more times, the motor and all new wiring. It still does not work.

We purchased a new home in 2002 and at that time we asked the builder if we could have other appliances than GE, the answer was NO. We have a long history of not just bad luck with GE, but just REALLY THE VERY WORST PRODUCTS for the past 8 years and were hoping not to have to deal with GE anymore. Unfortunatelly, the GE Profile refrigerator has been serviced once and now it broke totally, the Washer in making terrible noises. The microway is not working properly either (the piece that holds the turning table melted while making pop corn)

In Aug. 2005, I bought the top of the line washer and dryer that cost 2100.00. A month after having it the dryer breaks down, it took a week to replace (the switch or something was wrong), three weeks later it happens again (another week to fix it, the guys comes and he reset it). A month or so later again, it needs a new motor (the guy gets it to work, but new parts are on the way). Now Second week of January again it breaks down. We just want our money back. I dont want to deal with it anymore, I bought new, supposed quality so I can wash my clothes and dry but that isn't happening. Two thousand dollars for a washer and dryer is a lot of money.

GE replaced the knobs for free. I didn't contact them about any of the other problems.

I purchased a GE washing machine in 5/98. In 12/2000 the transmission went. I contacted GE for the repair and I had to pay $50 some odd dollars for the service call. The transmission is under a 5 year warranty and was replaced. Now in 1/2002 the transmission has gone again after 12 1/2 months. I contacted GE at 800-432-2737 and was told I would have to pay another service call and the labor on this 5 year warranty item. I then contacted the GE consumer office at 800-386-1215 was told the same thing and asked to speak with a supervisor. I spoke with Vicky at ext 2697. She offered me a voucher of $75 towards the labor cost on this 5 year warranty item plus I would have to pay another service call of $54.00.

We have owned our GE Washing Machine Model #GWSR3090T6WW for about 3 years and we have constantly had problems with water leaking out the bottom of the machine. In the past 3 years we have had the transmission replaced twice and now the water problem is back. It looks like we are looking at have the transmission replaced for a third time.

I am writing to report a similar problem with a GE washing machine, model WKSR2100T2. After five years, the transmission is also giving out (like others have reported on your site). This is a considerable economic loss as the cost of repairing the transmissionon the washing machine is quite expenxive.

My husband and I decided to buy a new washer 6 years ago, the GE Super Jumbo machine. Since the first day that we been using it, it flooded my entire kitchen. I had a GE technician take a look at it and he told me that there was something stuck inside, but I never believed him because I still have the same problem until now. I spent almost $600.00 for that machine that is a complete piece of junk. I ended up replacing my kitchen floor.

The washing machine is three years old. I was having my house checked for fire ants when I noticed a puddle of water on the ground where my washing machine sits. I checked the machine and found it is leaking. I called GE amd the person I talked to said the parts are free, but it would cost me $35.00 for someone to come out and check the machine.

We bought our washing machine on June 3, 1996 and installed the same day -- General Electric Model # GJSR2080T2WW, it is a heavy duty model. Our household just had the transmission replaced on January 18, 2001, by a Camco approved technician. The part was under warranty, but the labour was $138.00 Canadian for about 45 minutes work by the technician.

GE cover up. Anyone who has bought a GE/HOTPOINT/RCA/ OR PROFILE WASHING MACHINE manufactured in the US between 1995 and 1997 is susceptible to failure. GE sent out an inside memo to its service techs describing this catastrophic transmision and bearing failure. They knew about this problem and did not inform the general public. Their scheme is to charge the general labor for parts they know are bad.

I have a washing machine manufactured in 1997. I am not sure of date of purchase, I lost receipt. Every time I use it, water pours out of the bottom of it and floods my kitchen. My repair man came and told me (without doing anything ) that it is the transmission. The part is $175 plus the service call and labor.
