GE Washing Machines Reviews

I never hated an appliance as much as I hate this machine (model GHW N 4250 DWW DD 767-816). It takes 45 minutes to wash a load of clothes with a second rinse. My old Maytag never took that long and the clothes in the GE is no cleaner. The GE spins so fast that it is destroying and wearing out my clothes. Everything comes out so wrinkled that the average thing that never came out wrinkled before (like jeans and towels) have to be pressed after coming out of the dryer because the GE mangles and spins everything to death. In order to keep my clothes from being spun to death and worn out, I reverted to washing everything on delicate. I have lace curtains that I have washed many times over the years in my Maytag, but am afraid to put them in the GE as it will rip them to shreds.

I have a GE front load washer that is about 6 years old. It is absolutely the worst washer I have ever owned. It is constantly full of mold regardless of how often it is cleaned. Some areas are impossible to reach and therefore cannot be cleaned. Thus far, we have replaced the rubber housing that is just inside the door due to the mold. This repair was about $250. I have no confidence that items are ever clean due to the mold. The repairman suggested that we leave the door open when not in use and to open the dispenser tray to control the mold. It really hasn't helped much.

I purchased the GE Profile Prodigy washer used. The exterior was immaculate. The washer had deluxe quiet printed on it, but the spin cycle was very noisy. The dealer told us that sometimes GE washers get out of balance and the noise would go away. It did not go away. However, the spin cycle worked. About sixty days into our use of the machine, it stopped spinning with regular loads. I called a technician and he looked at it and listened to it run and told us it was the transmission. We found that hard to believe because we always thought GE was a reliable producer and this machine could not be more than a few years old and the exterior was in such good condition. So we paid for a second opinion only to get the same finding. In our search for technicians, most of the ones we contacted would not work on GE washers. We will not buy another GE product and we will encourage those who ask us to do the same. We have an excellent looking shell that seems to be such a waste to get rid of, but the transmission replacement cost is too expensive.

I had a 4-year old GE front load HE machine that was advertised as being 'top of the line' with a stainless steel drum, etc. It saw maybe “every other day use” and was never overloaded or abused. Last week, my wife informed me she was afraid to use the machine as it had become very noisy and there was a burning smell during the spin/rinse cycle. I found that the drum had about 2 inches of free play. I contacted the GE authorized service, and to their credit, they had an available appointment within two days. The repairman examined the machine and determined that the whole drum assembly (he called it the tripod) would have to be replaced. He was honest enough to tell me that that particular part was poorly made and the replacement part was of the same quality and that in his opinion it would not be worth the money it would cost to fix it. I later took the back off the machine and discovered that the whole support structure for the drum is made out of plastic and found the broken piece from the 'tripod'. I can't fathom that a machine that cost over $800 was so cheaply made. Needless to say, I will never purchase a GE major appliance again.

We purchased a top of the line GE washing machine. It had various problems from the beginning. We have had horrible customer service dealing with repairs. We had 20 different repair visits from GE technicians for 6 months. They have replaced each and every part 2-3 times. I had to call, schedule an appointment, and wait over and over while they replaced every single part. I requested a replacement after the 10 technician visits. It was denied. I stated that it could be any model but the one we have had nothing but problems with. They stated that they never replace products and that it was repairable. It has been a nightmare. The washing machine has never worked correctly or consistently. They finally replaced that machine after the 28th repair visit. They sent a new one, same model. They sent the wrong color, but I really didn't care that it no longer matched my dryer.

I am writing to report a similar problem with a GE washing machine, model WCRE6270H. After four years, my washer won't spin! It's just plain ridiculous to have to spend hundreds of dollars having to get it fixed! This is a considerable economic loss as the cost of repairing on the washing machine is quite expensive. No more GE products in my house.

I will keep this short and simple. I bought a dryer and washer unit in January 2012. Both the dryer and washer had problems. I kept calling for the repair tech to come and fix, but it's taking him several attempts to come because the machine keeps failing. The longest time I had to wait for the tech to come was about two months because he was supposed to make a rush order for the parts to fix the washer. But I don't think he did. No one had called me to tell me about the part if it was ordered or not. I had to call them several times to check, then they told me the parts were back-ordered so I had to wait a good two months for them. Finally, they came and installed the parts which worked at the time. But the next day, it was broken again.

Zero stars because I am more than angry. I purchased a new GE washer (GTWN4250DOWS) this past November 2012. I am fed up with the washer and fed up with GE. My GE uses the new HydroWave technology. The tub does not fill all the way to the top, so I can no longer wash my comforters. My work aprons get tangled in the agitator so bad that I have to call repair to get them to take the machine apart and remove them. When I complained to the repairman about the problems, he told me to take my comforters to a laundromat and to put my aprons in garment bags. The reason I have my own washing machine is so I don't have to go to a laundromat. I did, however, go out and buy two garment bags and the washer ripped the zippers off them. I only used them one time.

I purchased a mid-priced GE top load washer at the end of Oct. 2012. Within days, it started making a huge banging sound during every spin cycle. About a week ago, I couldn't take it anymore. I opened it up and saw that there was a large bolt sticking up, not holding anything down and then realized that the grey brick counter weight had become detached. I got a neighbor to come over and re-bolt the thing and as soon as the spin cycle started, it stripped again and began very loud banging again. I was very upset, as this was basically brand new.

I purchased a WJRE5550K2WW washing machine in early 2010 at Lowe's. Being "new technology" (high efficiency) and hydro something design, I was never satisfied. My clothes were ever really clean. Whites were pitiful, but we endured for a year thinking most of the trouble was based on our well water though we use a softener system. After moving to a new home on city water (and softened), we began having issues with mid-cycle stoppages, agitator not working, and finally, failing to spin out. The tub drained, but it seemed the motor would not work sometimes. After calling GE and setting up a $99.95 service call "plus parts", I decided to instead call someone else. We called a repairman through a local dealer, and it became obvious that he was not familiar with the "new technology." After two hours of just poking around and scratching his head, he determined it "could be the main board ($200+) or it could be the motor ($175+) or possibly both ($400+)."

It is the worst washing machine ever. When I wash dark clothes (and turn them inside out), they come out of the wash with white smudges and streaks both inside and out. I either have to wash them by hand again or take a clothes brush to the whole garment. If my dark clothes are like this, I wonder how clean my lighter colored clothes are. I have had this GE HE machine for about 18 months, and I have tried every cycle, different laundry detergents. Nothing seems to make a difference. I am so mad. I will be junking this machine within a month and buying a new one, but I don't know what to buy. I had a Maytag washer for 26 years which washed everything clean. I sure wish I had that one back.

I have been doing laundry for over 40 years and never have I experienced such a disaster as the GE washing machine. It sounds like a 747 jet taking off in the spin cycle and the clothes constantly get caught. Home Depot should stop carrying this brand and should take it off the market entirely. I have had it for less than six months and have had numerous service calls. What engineering idiot designed this piece of junk?

I bought a dryer and washer a little over a year ago from Sears. I had nothing but bad times with my GE appliances. It seems like GE doesn't care for their customers and I will never buy another GE anything! After bringing it home, I have called customer service for the dryer making a squealing noise. The tech came out, did what he had to and left. Noise came and went. Now, it's so bad that I called to complain again and was questioned by customer service why I didn't call back sooner and she said that there's nothing GE will do. I spent $1,000 a little over a year ago and this is how they treat me. Keep in mind that within the first three months of having the washer, the belt popped and I had to return it to Sears. I called to have it fixed.

Hotpoint/GE washer model HSWP1000M2WW - I have to babysit the washer when I do laundry. Clothing has been stuck under the agitator several times! There is no way to lift (unscrew a cap) the agitator. I have to keep pulling the fabric and ease it out. Then, I find the item/items are covered with grease. I have only had the washer since May 15, 2012. I hate it! It was replaced from my Hotpoint that I used for over 23 years, and it still performed well, but the dryer quit heating. So, I decided to buy new units instead of forking money out for repair on the dryer. I so regret that decision! My old washer had a cap to unscrew. I often removed it and cleaned underneath if need be. These new units cost twice as much as our old ones, and they are cheap looking and very plain. Here is a photo of the last item. The other ones that were grease covered and/or torn, I had disposed of.

GE model WHDVH660HWW Front Loading Washing Machine was purchased in 2008, has never run properly, and has always had problems with the load balance. Also, the mold problem and bad odor in the washer. The washer actually started smoking during a rinse/spin cycle. We disconnected the washer and called GE. They sent a repairman out, and he never even started the washer. We were told that the washing basket was out of round and it would have to be replaced. Cost $771.00 plus the $90+ for this service call. It seems that all these GE front loaders are a problem. I have a kitchen full of GE products. I wouldn't recommend purchasing anything with the GE name.

My machine does not spin all the water out of the wash cycle like my old-type GE. I can put water selection on hot, and the machine will only add hot water when the lid is open. When I close the lid, the water switches to cold. When washing clothes, the method of agitation is totally inadequate. I hate this machine!

This new technology washer, GE 4.3 IEC model, is a complete piece of garbage. We wish we still had our 20-year old model they took away as at least it got the clothes clean. Do not buy their new washers with no agitator and low water consumption. They do not get your clothes clean and leave lint, dog hair, and dirt on your clothes. The service guy came out to our house and said that there is nothing wrong with the machine and it is working as designed! He said they get a huge amount of complaints about the unit and that my file has been turned over to GE customer relations. Well, they just called and tried to tell me that I must be doing something wrong! They refuse to admit there is a problem with this machine and their design and will do nothing for you! Tough luck, basically. I will never buy another GE appliance and I will tell everyone I know not to also. Poor product and poor company!

I called GE for a repair. It is not a repair; it is a reprogram. They are reprogramming it, which means now it will not spin as fast. I have owned my machine (GE Front Loading WPDH8800) for 2 1/2 years. I have had problem after problem, repairman after repairman. I have to rewash due to soap still in load after it completes its cycle. I use pods now since my automatic soap dispensers do not work. I wonder how many loads I washed without soap! I have had my automatic soap dispensers fixed 4 times (new hoses, new pumps). I am so over this washer. I will never buy GE again.

Ge Profile washer - Sounds like a common problem. Twice this has happened. The first time, the repair cost for warranty exceeded and they replaced the washer. I thought, great. Now the second time, I've been listening to it get louder and know it quite well. It's out of warranty and I'm not going to let them charge me to fix it. So, I took the back off it and saw the belt drive for the drum wore out. The belt was shredded. I don't know what exactly started it but for a hundred dollar, I'll try to see how long it will last. When I pulled the back cover off, I noticed the (concrete) counterweight and a piece broke off. The drive pulley was ob-longed on the shaft causing slop and the belt was off, which probably flew off after so much wobbling shaft. Lesson learned - do more homework before purchasing major appliances.

I purchased a large capacity top load machine (model GTWN2800D0WW) in July 2012. In September 2012, it flooded my laundry room. Service technician indicated that it required a part that was on backorder and would not be available for several weeks. Consumer advocate supervisor declined my request to refund my money. Instead, he upgraded and sent me a new machine (model GTWN4250DWS). After having machine for two weeks, I noticed that any clothing with a drawstring or extra long sleeves was getting wrapped so tightly around the agitator that they were getting small rips and tears in them. Plus, it was quite difficult and time-consuming to untangle my clothing.

My GE Profile washing machine, which was purchased in July 2011, would not spin the clothes dry enough to put in my dryer. We shut off the power button but the machine kept running, so we disconnected the power plug. Later at 4:00 AM, our alarm system went off. We got up to check why it was going off. Water was pouring down into the basement from the upstairs utility room. The utility room was flooded and the water was going down the heating duct, which caused my water heater to short out. We turned the main water system off, but the damage was already done and my utility room was ruined. Should a washing machine 16 months old be doing that? It has caused over $4,000 worth of damages. We will not buy a GE machine again!

Update to previous entry: My son did tell me several weeks ago that there was sand in the washing drum and small gravel pieces in the drain hose filter (We filter out the lint to keep it out of the plumbing). A salesman told us that it looked like concrete (in output filter) broken down into smaller pieces. We disconnected machine and looked under it, and there is a large circular piece of concrete that is part of the machine, and a piece is missing from the outer edge of it. Has anyone out there had this happen with sand and gravel in their washers?

I bought my machine (WCVH6260FWW) 6 years ago for $850! I know but it was first really high tech machine I bought and it uses less water and less oil to heat the water. When first delivered, it made the noise and GE came through and replaced the whole machine immediately. It has been a nice machine for 6 years, except it seems now that the ball bearings are shot. It could have been misuse on our part. I have been away and my sons have used the machine. I have told them not to overload it and I think they would heed that advice, but I really don't know. The warranty is over. The repairs will cost between $600 and 700. I think I'm just going to scrap it and buy a good, simple, old-fashioned machine if it is available, because we have noticed with dishwashers that the simple ones are no longer available. I'm curious - if a lot of people have this problem and have not overloaded, is it the machine? It has been discontinued now. Is there a class action lawsuit?

We bought a GE frontload washer and we've had it for 5 years. Then, we had to replace the pump; luckily, I found a cheap priced one on eBay. We also didn't know of the filter clean out until a neighbor of mine who bought one found out about it after the repairman took his apart and cleaned it. We have a very loud spin cycle which we set on medium spin speed so the washer doesn't jump around. Our machine also smoked on a spin cycle and pieces of melted rubber show up in our clothes every now and then. The washer also smells like old stinking sour water when it runs, and gets in our clothes. I've read that Whirlpool has a class action lawsuit against them for the same problems of the smell. I wonder if there is one against GE. I see that I'm not the only one with these issues.

My nightmare started on 9/11/12. A GE repairman came to fix my washing machine. I did not have a warranty and it cost me $300.00. As soon as he left, we did laundry and the machine started making noises which sounded like a train was going through our house (I have this recorded it on my phone). I thought since some parts were replaced this might subside. It did not, so I called GE and they sent out another repairman. He told me that the 1st repairman did not tighten some things correctly and it caused damage to another part that he would have to order which would take a week to be delivered. The parts were delivered in the week and another repairman came to fix the machine. Repairman #3 replaced the part, said the machine was fixed then left. I then went to do some wash and again, the machine made the same noise but this time water started to leak into my basement. We then had to cut a hole in our drywall because of the water damage.

If it was possible to feel hate for an appliance, then that's how I would feel about this GE Front Loading High Efficiency Washer. I should have returned it immediately. I never felt that it was getting my laundry clean. Now all I have are problems with the wash cycle not advancing, and improper spinning and draining. I have read the manual over and over again, and have had no choice but to call a repairman. The problem is I just don't want this product any longer. I would rather purchase a new washer than repair this one that is just over a year old. Never purchase this product! If this is GE engineering, then I would never purchase another GE product!

I moved to a little town five years ago and bought a new GE washer (WHRE550H1WW) as it was on sale. I thought, GE has a good name and they have been around forever. Surely, their products should be fine. We could not install for one and a half years due to remodel. I live alone so I do at least three loads a week. The washer doesn't clean worth a darn, started making this loud screeching sound and leaks water. So, I called a repair person to come in and the transmission gear is gone. Well, for what it costs to fix, I will junk it and start over with a Whirlpool. I should have stuck with the reliable and good old Whirlpool.

I have a 3-year old GE front loading washing machine. So far I have had two major repairs. In 2010 I had the motor board and the door lock replaced for a bill of $319.18. Yesterday (10/31/12) I paid $128.10 to have a new inlet pipe installed. The plastic had cracked and water was coming out the bottom on my machine. The appliance man said that I was lucky that I didn't have to replace another motor board ($160.00) because the leak was very close to that part. I would not recommend this appliance to anyone!

GE washer is horrible! I purchased my GE washer three years ago and since then, I have had nothing but problems. It will not spin and rinse the clothes. Time after time, I have to go down and put it on another rinse and spin cycle. This is with me always keeping it set to second spin. I am spending way more money on my electric bill due to the fact that it takes two hours to dry towels because they are so damp going in. Energy-efficient washer? I think not! I only wish I had read these consumer reviews before I purchased it. The techs coming in to repair have told me not to buy GE as they make the worst appliances - good to know for the future. I had my old basic washer for 12 years with no problems. Never ever again will I purchase this brand.

GE front load washer, less than 3 years old - Within the first 6 months (under warranty), the pump broke. They said it was my fault but the good repairman fixed it. Still the washer never did spin out the water very well after that, so I had to re-spin it every time. Now the drum is cracked and we were quoted $900 in parts plus labor. No warranty this time. I couldn't afford the extra money for extended warranty. I can't afford for them to fix it so my husband, who isn't a repairman, got a second hand drum and is now trying to fix it. If he can't, where in the heck is the money to buy a new one?

We purchased a GE front load HE washer model GCVH6600H1GG about 4.5 years ago. The matching dryer is fine. The washer was flawed from the beginning. It looked great but lots of rocking, shaking and noise. We made the mistake of replacing the pump (about $240) and what might have contributed to that is there is a secret filter under the front cover that they don't tell you about, but you need to clean out every few months. We did not replace the front door, which was cheap plastic that was cracking, which would have cost another $300+. The parts could not be found in Canada for less than $219.

I purchased a GE 24'' Laundry Center w/ Electric Dryer (Model # GTUP240EMWW). The spin cycle stopped working after 6 months. I contacted the customer service department to schedule a repair appointment. Their customer service and technicians are both less than satisfactory. I've had 2 service appointments to repair the spin cycle, and the washing machine spin cycle still doesn't work. I now need to replace an appliance that is less than a year old and is still under warranty. I will surely go with another make and model. Stay far away from GE appliances. It's a shame that GE makes and sells appliances that don't even last a full year.

I would put 0 star if I could. I bought this GE washer/dryer unit with model number GTUP270GM0WW one year plus 2 weeks ago. It suddenly stopped working yesterday, seemed a small lid problem. But since the warranty just expired two weeks ago, they asked $99.95 for service plus possible labor/part if repair is necessary. It's plain robbery. A washer only lasts for one year - they calculate so well! Such a lousy company and problem, never buy from them again!

GE Profile Washer WHRE5550K2TWW - I purchased a brand new GE Profile clothes washer in June 2010. I have a family of 3, so the loads are not over the top. 2 weeks ago on occasion, the machine started operating out of sequence. It would spin at the time of filling. Then, it would agitate at the time of drain and spin. Then two days ago I could not get it to spin at all. A local repairman came out and diagnosed the problem as the control board (mother board) and the motor. Parts alone would be close to $400 (which is the price I paid for it brand new) not counting labor. I was informed that the motor going out within two years is a very chronic problem as the motors are made outside of the USA - in Mexico, Indonesia and some in China. The motor alone is worth 75% of the value of this appliance and it can't hold up past 2 years?

I bought a GE washer model WJSR41606GWW, serial SR128198G on 10-20-08. First repair within two years for no spin during wash and rinse cost $125. Second repair call was for the same problem within three years. This time, the motor needs to be replaced which cost $89.95 for service call and $250 for motor. I bought a new washer on sale for $358.20. The cost to repair is $464. I can't justify spending more on a product than it costs after just three years. GE makes poor quality products, has poor quality service techs and poor quality management. Don't buy GE ever! There are Lemon Laws for poorly made autos. Let's have Lemon Laws for durable goods like this poor quality GE washer. I am not the only one with this problem. GE should stand behind what they make, but sadly, they don't. Remember: Don't buy any GE products ever! Buy from another company that is known for quality.

I bought this top load washer model #WBSR3140G2WW for $369. After 6 months, the timer went out. It was repaired. Now 3 years later, the timer goes out again. The cheapest fix is $210. All that I can assume is a defective design; hence, it's a piece of junk. I detest the fact that items are so cheaply made (in China, no doubt). That "Planned Obsoletion" tactic sucks.

My machine is supposed to use less water which it does but it does not clean the clothes very well. After about three years, the bolts holding the tub broke and fell into the evacuator motor and destroyed the motor. It was out of warranty. GE paid for the new tub, but I paid over $250 for labor and a service call. Now the machine works but it sounds like tornado when evacuating the water. There is still something wrong with the evacuator motor. It takes forever to do a load of clothes. I never had so much trouble with a washer in so short a period of time. Never buy a GE.

GE front load washer WBVH6240FWW - This was purchased in 2006. Mold is disgusting and the odor left on clothes, even when taken out, is awful. The mold weakened the rubber door boot seal and now it tore and it leaks. I cannot use the machine and all GE wants to do is send someone out to give an estimate to replace parts, but they will not give any idea as to the cost. Now that I am reading the other posts, I wonder about the noise and shaking I heard during the draining cycle front load. Never again; GE is not the customer first company it used to be, or they would recall the inferior front load washers they manufactured.

I bought a GE top loader about 1 year ago and it has been a nightmare. The washer will not spin, even on extra spin cycle. Sometimes I have to put it on spin for 3 to 4 times and then have to take clothes off and do it by hand. It takes 2 to 3 hours to do a load. Now it will not spin at all. I had a GE person to check it a couple of weeks after I bought it and they said I was putting too much soap in. So, I changed that to the point where I put no soap in and it still does not spin.

I paid around $800 for this piece of crap, only had it for 4 years. I paid more and got a hell of a lot less. I will never buy GE again! They make you buy the motor when all you need is a circuit board, 4 screws and 4 plugs removed. But GE only sells the motor. No circuit board! To fix this, it would cost about $400 so you're better off to buy a new one. GE can stick it! My used Amana lasted 14 years so that tells me their technology sucks. It's for their advantage, not their customers!

After years of reconditioned used washers (3 actually), I finally convinced my husband to buy me a new one. It will be the last one we have to buy. After all, the others lasted 10 years each. What a joke! My 2-year old top loader GE has been a waste of time and money since we got it. Not enough water, moldy smelling clothes and towels, not spinning out so bad we had to use the extended spin 2 times per load. It took 6 hours to do 4 loads of clothes. We didn't even realize it was so bad until my daughter moved out and said how she could do 3 loads in about an hour! Then in the middle of a load of clothes, it just quit. The repairman said $468! What? We paid $700 for it! The computer is bad and that ruined the motor! I will never by GE again. Their response was, "You chose not to buy the extended warranty!" My parents never had to buy a warranty on their washer and it lasted 25 years! Guess GE doesn't think they'll make enough money that way!

GE Washer Model # WCVH6260 door boot seal, front load washer is severely damaged. It left the laundry room and basement flooded. It damaged the wooden floor in laundry room and lot of things got wet in the basement. The repair cost for the washer is $245. Replacing the wooden floor in the laundry room and damages in basement is $1,000+.

After 1 year, the bearings went out and the smell is terrible. The tube will not drain. GE will not do anything.

I bought a new GE washer. I hate it. It doesn't clean the clothes and they come out all tied together. I need to wash the clothes two or three times to get them clean. It never gets enough water in the tub that sometimes the clothes on top are still dry when the washer is finished. I hate this washer. I will never buy another product like this.

This washer has been a piece of junk since I bought it! We've had to continuously fix the door for several different pieces breaking on it! The whole thing is a piece of crap! I will not buy another front-load washer! I can't even wash clothes right now, for a family of five, who needs clothes washed at least every other day. This is an inconvenience, and now I'm going to have to find a whole new washing machine because parts to fix are just as much as a new machine! I will be looking for a different brand also!

Element on dryer has gone two times and washer has flooded laundry room and now the rubber has ripped all the way around. I have spent too much money on repairs and can't keep fixing these problems. I have bought new GE appliances when we built our house and have contacted Home Depot many times about the problems I have had with my washer and dryer and they only cover one year warranty? Seeing how I have spent over $7,000 in new GE appliances, I would like some help with either fixing them or a brand new set! I have contacted a service guy to come and fix the washer and it is now going to cost me half the price of just buying a new washer. Help please with these repair costs. I just keep getting the runaround and can never get a hold of a person to talk to from GE.

Top loading GE washing machine - Piece of junk. Doing a small load and the machine overflows and will not agitate. Then when attempting to rinse and spin, the water pours out of the back of the machine. It has lasted 2 years, same problem with the GE I had 2 years ago. Totally a piece of junk. I'm hoping Home Depot has a better choice of machines.

We have model GTWN4250M1WS. This machine sucks. It is the worst GE washer we ever bought. You always have to put in half the amount of clothes you should put in. The water never covers the clothes. Because of this, it affects the washing and rinsing of the clothes. This machine is a piece of **. Shame on you, GE. There are a lot of annoyed customers that bought this piece of **. In the future, we will never by GE products again.

My 4-year old washer overfilled and flooded my laundry room going into the basement and causing me to lose my hardwood floor in the laundry room plus several items that cannot be replaced. This also cost me $500 deductible for my homeowner's insurance to cover the damage. It took 3 days for the 7 fans and 2 industrial dehumidifiers from the restoration company to dry the place out. Of course, this doesn't cover the cost of repairing or replacing the washer. When I emailed GE to ask what the part number would be for me to order and replace the necessary part, their response was, "I don't know but we can schedule a service call." Really? I tried to call the company but the recording said they were receiving a high volume of calls and my wait time on hold would be at least 15 minutes. After reading these comments, I can see why their customer service number has such a long wait. I will not be stopping here. They have pissed off the wrong person this time!

I purchased a GE front-loading washer and dryer in 2008. It has been a living nightmare. I have had problems with the washer since day one. It had a 2 year warranty. It goes off balance, shut down during cycles, have to restart, does not spin, and dry properly. I filed a complaint with the State Attorney General. A rep called me from GE and said because the warranty ran out, they will not send a repairman to look at it. They will replace and they will cover 30%. Are you kidding me? I threw out $2,300.00 for a piece of junk and that's the best they can do? I’m going back to the State Attorney General and find out how to start a class action lawsuit. Anyone want to join in?

We bought this GE profile from Leon's store on the 18th July for our brand new home. The product was delivered to us on the 24th. We opened the product on the 30th, installed and ran. It looks fine but it broke down yesterday. The product broke down in 30 days. The product did not last for more than a few days and it broke down. I went to Leon's for return. They don't want to take it back. I thought GE is the best, but I highly recommend to never buy a GE product. Biggest mistake.

I telephoned Customer Care on 12 September because my dryer of only 4 years would not work and made a humming sound when the start button was pushed. I gave the serial and model numbers and the person (did not get the name) put me through a series of things to check for like breaker box, etc. Finally, they recommended that I needed a technician and made an appointment. When the technician came the next day, it took him all of 60 seconds to push a little reset button on the inside of the dryer and charge me $79.95 when this could have been addressed on the phone and this troubleshooting method is not in the owner's either. I am a disabled vet and cannot afford to just give up money in this manner.

My GE Front loader washer is 2 years old and started leaking so bad it flooded my upstairs laundry room. My husband said he would look at it. Come to find out he opened up the back of the washer and one of the shocks was never set in place. That is why my washer would bang so loud and would actually move from the spot we had it in. From that happening, it broke my water inlet tube from the soap dispenser leading into the front of the drum. Something as cheap as a $12.00 part caused a lot of damage and wasted time. Thankfully, my husband is a good mechanic. And we didn't waste time with GE.

We purchased a front load washer in 2006, only to find out 6 years later that it is shot! The washer started to get very loud on the spin cycle. It wasn't off-load nor did it jump around. Upon calling 2 service repair companies in our area, I was told that they wouldn't waste my money on a service call because this is such a common complaint that they knew exactly what it was - there is a bearing that is encased in the motor, and to get to it and replace it would cost $500-$600! It's not worth it since I paid around $900 for a new one! I also had problems with the clothes smelling, and it took an hour to wash a load of clothes. We had bought the washer from Sears, and bought a name brand (at least I thought they were), only to be very angry at the fact that the washer is not worth repairing!

I bought a GE dryer model GTDP300EMOWS less than 2 years ago and the motor has gone out. I only use the dryer an average of 3 times a week. The repairman couldn't believe it went out that soon either and could tell by the condition of the dryer that it was well kept and still looks new. You buy a new product and go with a name you trust and then you get burned. The price of the motor and labor is almost as much as the cost of a new dryer. I guess I will go to Whirlpool.

I purchased no agitator washer. This is the worst GE I ever bought. I am using HE detergent. As noted, it is awful. I will never buy GE again. I always loved GE appliances, but not anymore. I am now stuck with a no good washer. Shame on you.

Since we purchased our front loading GE washer about five years ago, we have had nothing but problems. The washer would fail to cycle and then it would smell. When we finally did get repair people out, we were told that was "normal," which isn't true. We also have to unscrew the flow value at the bottom of the washer all the time since socks, etc. are constantly getting into this tube. Now, the washer is locked and it makes a very loud noise. When we call, we are told there is a two-hour wait. We are now looking at getting a new machine and just writing this off as a bad experience. We will never buy GE again!

I purchased a GE top loading washer about 10 months ago. I have had GE washers in the past (like 10 years ago) and was very pleased with them. This new one is a piece of junk taking up space in my laundry room. The tub is inconsistent as to how much water goes in, sometimes it's barely enough to wet the clothes; other times it overflows all over the floor. But the main problem is the rinse cycle. It has something called a "rain shower" and the dirty water will drain out but not spin at all, so dirty water is left in the clothing. A 15-second fill of water occurs and then the tub will agitate for 15 seconds. That's it, that's your rinse cycle. The clothes smell dirty and don't feel clean. I finally got smart and now, I wash the clothes and let the cycle complete. I then put the machine on another wash cycle without detergent. A total waste of water but at least my clothes are clean. I will never purchase another GE washer or appliance until GE replaces this piece of crap.

I bought a GE front loader washer about 3.5 years ago. It would always rock and slam back and forth. I took it off the riser and this did nothing. I called out for a repair. The repairman said it looked like a shock problem and replaced it, but it had just passed the year warranty so I had to pay for the repair call. It never stopped going off balance and two days ago, the transmission appears to have failed. I called GE and they told me of the recall two years ago. They said they were building a case on my problem and then referred me to the department to schedule the recall repair. They said not to use the machine because a thermal event could occur. I asked about the other problem (transmission) and was told that they were not certain if I would have to pay for the visit with regard to the new problem. I stayed on the line for literally 45 minutes and no one picked up to schedule the repair visit.

The washing machine glass just exploded. I called GE and they said there have not been other complaints. The washing machine is 2 years old and they would not warranty. This is a consumer hazard. I googled on the computer and there have been other complaints. This appliance should be recalled due to the lid. There is now glass all over clothes. Please contact me at **.

Did you know that the plastic balancer that goes around the clothes tub is filled with acid? GE doesn't want to offer any help with my question why there is a corrosive liquid in a household appliance that is not needed. One said it's filled with saline solution and another said that I had no right to open a factory sealed part. My thought is that GE is so big that they have come up with a way of getting rid of old acid by putting it in to a very thick well-made rings that are almost indestructible so they just go to trash yards. Sounds like the love canal and a place not too far from me found drums underground at an expressway bridge site under construction.

When our washing machine was delivered, we called saying we were struggling with not having enough water in the tub to wash the clothes, but we were told that it was normal and to read the directions. If we wash two or three items, it's fine but anything more than that, there's not enough water. After calling several times, ABC sent someone out. By this time, my husband has done everything he could to make the washer run properly. We were told by the repairman to raise the hose because the water was draining out of the tub. We did that and to this day there is not enough water in the tub and our clothes and towels continue to smell like mold. I clean the wash machine with the special cleaner, but it doesn't take a genius to realize the clothes are not being washed in water because there's not enough in the barrel.

I bought a GTWN3000MOWS washing machine from Lowe’s in September or November 2010. I went back to the store and told the salesman that sold it to me that it made loud noises when it changed gears during the wash cycle. He said that was just the machine and it would work its way out - not to worry. Well, I am worried. I had a used washer and dryer for 5 years before I bought a new one. And I decided to, just in case, buy a new one when I got enough money saved. Well, now my machine will not spin out all the water and I have to re-spin the cycle and the loud noises are still there. It is so loud I can hear it on the other side of my house when I am watching TV and it really upsets me that I trusted my salesman when he told me that it was just the machine and not to worry. I did not get an extended warranty because I have never had any problems with a washer or dryer before.

I have a GE front-load washer that I purchased in 2008. It has ripped clothes, shredding them to pieces, and has an awful smell that stays on our clothes. I have been on hold for 30 minutes waiting to talk to someone about this. What can I do?

We purchased a brand new GE top-load washer GTAP1000M from Tepperman's in Windsor, Ontario on May 30, 2012. Today, July 30, 2012, I still have a washer that does not spin out after wash or put water in to rinse. They changed the timer a couple of weeks ago. No change. Now when trying to contact Transglobal Services, who deals with warranty, to talking to Stephania at Mabe, the company that deals with all appliance companies in Canada, I just get the runaround. My advice, buyer beware!

On 7/1/2011, I was washing clothes and the washing machine model WHDVH626FWW was smoking so bad. I had to call the fire department to my home. I called the consumer line to file a complaint about the product. So they wanted to send a tech out to check it, and they did. The tech came out and explained what had happened, and I told him what the fire department said also. The fire department called to see what happened about the issue. The tech was saying how much the replacing parts were, which by that time you can buy a new one. So in the effort of GE wanting to help, they only offer me a prorated amount for a machine I paid over $1,000 for and the pedestal that goes under it. I have the dyer also. It's ok. So all your products are only supposed to last 5 years, and that's it. For the kind of money, it should give at least 10 years. I had the extended warranty on it, and they had come out a few times after buying the appliance. It's very understandable how you all take care of the consumer when all you have are complaints one after another.

I called in December 2011 due to a broken washer motor (model wjre550k2ww). They told me I couldn't have it fixed by a GE-certified repairman due to where I live. So, I called a local repair shop that replaced the motor. Now, the replacement motor is dead. The washer was purchased in December 2009.

GE front load washing machine, model WCVH6800JWW, takes more time to wash a load than what is selected for the cycle because it constantly has to stop and readjust the load. The machine rocks off balance every 3 wash loads. Due to the rocking and vibrating of the machine across my laundry room floor, my floor tiles have slipped out of place, broken and chipped. I've already had broken shocks replaced once about 8 months after purchase. Many times, I have to put on the spin/rinse cycle after the first cycle didn't rinse or spin. I suspect the shocks are broken yet again, but since I don't have warranty on this product, I will not pay to have it fixed. I hate this machine and will never buy or recommend this product again. Machine was purchased in 2008. I've had trouble with it for the past 3 years. Too much money for such an inferior product. Cost was $758.14.

I purchased a GE washer from HHGregg 2 years ago. I was told I'd get a rebate if I sent in all paperwork, I did, twice. I never got my rebate. I absolutely hate this washer model P620. First off, all you get is no water to clean your clothes. When it spins, your clothes are in knots. It takes 1 hour for a cycle. I will never buy a GE product again.

I purchased GE front load washing machine Model WCVH6600H1MS and once again today, I removed clothing that had tears and holes in it. I have lost count of the number of times that this has happened to and of course it is the better clothing items! I will never purchase another GE product and am very disappointed that a large company like GE never did anything to compensate the consumer for its loss. It also has to shake extremely loud and gets out of balance very easy.

I always buy GE and always Profile in all appliances but this washer I bought is $800.00 of junk. I wish GE would buy it back! It is a Profile top load model MFL42065483. I cry almost every time I use it! I have a family that’s always on the go. This washer has no recourse for its biggest problem an extra spin. So many times, my clothes come out still drenched with water, especially my towels. Well, in order to spin out again, I must do a rinse and spin cycle, which is like washing another load again. Don't tell me the soap must be getting on the clothes, causing the sensor not to work. I already had someone up and they told me if so much as a drop of soap or softener falls out of the dispenser, it causes problems to spin cycle.

I bought a GE Profile washer four years ago. Recently, it started to make a lot of noise during spin cycle. It cost me $79.95 to be told by the tech before he even looked at it that it was a bad bearing. His inspection confirmed it. Almost $600 repair cost. This bearing is the heart of the drive system, and it should last at least 10- 15 years, but GE has designed a lousy machine. It's cheaper to buy a new one rather than repair a poorly designed machine. It won't be a GE.

We have had our GE Washer less than a year. The instructions on the reverse side of the door are wearing away. GE Warranty blamed the problem on the user. She said it had other customers calling in about this same problem. She claimed we were using products in our washing machine causing this problem. Let’s see, there are three we use; spray and wash, bleach, and detergent. Lame excuse GE, you should be ashamed, but with your batting average for complaints, I am not surprised. GE's problem is your paint, not the user. We have bought GE products over the years but have never had a problem like this. By the way, are you outsourcing labor to other countries and not supporting the United States during the recession? Have a nice day.

I purchased a GE washer model wjre550k2ww on 2/15/19. It continually leaves scum and lint on the clothing. I have tried using less detergent, and not putting as many clothes in it. Nothing seems to work and I am thoroughly disgusted and sorry I ever purchased it.

My 5-year-old front load washing machine that cost $700.00 broke down while I was doing a load of laundry. The serviceman said I should replace it because it will cost $1150.00 in parts to repair. I am single and do maybe 3 medium-sized loads a week. I definitely don't overuse or abuse it. That is ridiculous. I am on a fixed income and really can't afford that kind of thing. Unfortunately, I have all GE appliances in my home. I no longer trust any of them. My new washer is not GE nor will I purchase GE again. Oh, and they are aware of the problem!

I bought a brand new GE washer model #WCVH6800J0MS serial# HR201603T on January 10, 2010 and started having trouble with it immediately after I bought it. I called a service man out to see what the problem was, he fixed it. Then, it started acting up again and had to call a second person to come out and fix the washer. I told GE customers service representative to come and pick up the washer and that I wanted a refund. That didn't happen because the person knew that this model was not a good model. I tried several times to get the washer picked up. But due to the bad customer service that GE offers, I still have the washer.

Washer/dryer combination unit was installed in July, 2011. In less than one year, I have had to use four vacation days to sit home and wait for service because the washer "eats" socks that end up jamming the motor. My house has been flooded twice due to this problem. I am a 55 year old woman and I've been doing laundry for over 40 years and have not had this problem with any machine I have used previously. I believe this is a design flaw. GE's consumer relations office is joke. They lie and refuse access to supervisors. I want this piece of junk taken out of my house. I will never purchase a GE appliance again!

Update: GE is replacing my HE washer with another one. They gave me a model # and I checked it out. It's not an HE low water machine, the machine I purchased in December. After the wash cycle was finished, I couldn't believe how wrinkled my clothing was. After re-washing the clothing, I found the same problem. Hopefully, I should be getting the new machine on Friday, 5-18-2012. They cannot tell me a human being tested this HE machine.

The tub exploded, hence, ruining the washer and dryer. We purchased a GE Front load washing machine and dryer (Model #: WPDH8900J1MV) for our new home in July 2009. I have never liked GE products but the builder who built our home went with GE products for everything. Today, May 12, 2012, I was doing some jeans and khaki shorts in the washer. I was folding clothes when all of a sudden, I heard what sounded like a bomb exploding in the laundry room. I went to the laundry room to find smoke, dust and the front door on my washing machine wide open. The tub on the inside had literally exploded.

We purchased a GE washer and dryer from Home Depot in January 2012. Then in March or April, the machine quit spinning. A repairman fixed it and said it was due to overloading. Then in April, it quit spinning again. The repairman said that it could have been that he didn't tighten the screw that holds everything in place. Now it is May and it is getting off balance again. I called customer service for the third time. I was told they don't replace it until the 4th service call. I really don't want the machine replaced because I have no confidence in it and the fact that you have to wait for days to get it fixed is really an inconvenience since we have 6 kids. GE customer service was of no help and would not refund my money. It's as if your time in scheduling with them and the time and cost spent at the laundromat means nothing to them. I will have to sell the machines I just bought at a loss in order to get something I can count on.

GE high-efficiency washer - My clothing come out so wrinkled and having a hard time ironing all. I wrote to GE, got a return call and was advised they were sending me a new agitator. I really do not think it's the agitator. I got a good price for the machine, but now due to the wrinkling, I now have to iron everything. That's not saving me any money. I will update after the tech installs the new agitator on the 4th of May.

I purchased a GE HE top loading washing machine in January 2011 for my Florida home (only snowbirds a few months a year). The washer only filled about 4-6 inches regardless of the amount of clothes. I called a service tech. I got a runaround that the water level is not adjustable. Clothes come out twisted and not clean due to low water, scum and order sometimes. I run a 3 feet hose from the sink and add water for each cycle. It’s a ** thing to have to do to get clean clothes. I tried to return it, but the salesman at Lowe’s said they all work that way now. I would rather have an old one with manual water level control. I can't believe there is not some pot adjustment that could be tweaked to make it fill higher. I’m living with it, but not happy. I would be happy to be part of a class action suit.

I purchased a GE Profile HE washing machine (Model WPRE6150K2WT) in November of 2011. In December of 2011, my machine went off balance and started "walking" across the basement floor, knocking over the sink and displacing the dryer. We put the machine back in place and tried to restart it but to no avail. I called Karl's where I purchased it and they told me I had to call GE because they don't service what they sell.

On January 30, 2007, we purchased a GE front load washer, model # WCVH6260FWW, for $840. On March 15, 2012, the washer started making a loud noise during the final spin. We called a very competent repairman with our local store where we purchased the washer. He said it needed a new tub! The cost to repair the tub is $625, plus installation! We called GE and they said there is nothing they can do. A washer should last more than four years! We do approximately four loads of laundry per week! Are there any recalls for this type of washer? Is there any help for us?

This is our second G.E. top-loading H.E. (low-water) washing machine. When we got the first one, the clutch broke almost immediately; shortly after that, the motor broke. They replaced the machine (Bray & Scarf, Bethesda, MD). This one leaves scum on my clothes, so I always use second rinse (does not save water). The cycle is eternal. I use the correct amount of H.E. liquid. It must use more energy than our old regular machine - it runs twice as long. Also, sheets or towels are so twisted at end of cycle you can barely get them untangled to go in the dryer. My husband says they smell. I blame the washer. I follow the directions on the washer perfectly.

Less than four years old, our GE (Model: WBVH5100HWW) washer started smoking so I called a technician to look at it. He said that the basket is broke. I called GE since he told me that Whirlpool has a 10-year warranty on parts but wasn't sure about GE. The woman at GE said that it only had a one-year warranty. She said, "I can send out one of my technicians to look at it for you." I told her I already have a qualified technician look at it from Sears and she got smart and said, "Well, he can't offer you a five-year warranty on replacement parts."

I bought this piece of junk at Metro Appliance in Tulsa, OK. After one month, the motor goes out. I called them and they don't want to talk about it. I said when I bought it a technician would be out to our house to fix it if anything happened to it. Lies! I couldn't get anybody to come here to work on it. It's been about a month without a washer. Don"t buy from Metro Appliance! They just want the money! This is going to be the last GE product in this house!

There are balance issues, cycle is too long, and it started pausing every 10 minutes and lasts 7 minutes. It stops and you have to switch to drain and spin before you put in the dryer. Dryer takes over an hour to dry a load of towels. According to reviews, every owner hates this machine. Class action, anyone?

GE top load washer (model number GLWN5050MOWS): The water level is not high enough on any setting. Clothes come out twisted and tangled, and the clothes are still dirty in the cracks and crevices left by the tangled clothes. This product is not worth buying at any price. I tried for 6 months to adjust to it. I took it back to Lowe's, but they could not/would not let me exchange it for another washer or get a refund. On a scale of 1 to 10, this product is a zero. I am through with GE products.

I purchased 3 GE front load washers and 2 dryers in 2010 for myself and daughters. I have never been more disappointed in a product by GE. I have purchased many GE appliances, but this has turned me to never, I mean never, buy a GE product again. My one daughter had to have the door gasket replaced at the cost of $350.00. The balance on all 3 washing machines are terrible no matter how many times you re-balance and lock the legs in. The clothes get oil marks on them especially dark colored t-shirts and no matter what soap I use, it continues. Other owners have told me they have the same problems. I think they should recall all their front load washers until they can produce a product that is suitable for resale and works properly. I also have a refrigerator that is useless and very loud, does not stay cool and crisper drawers only rot veggies. I hope this stops someone from being ripped off by GE's lousy products. Give it up GE if you can not produce a reliable product.

I bought GE washer in 2008 from hhgregg. In less than 2 years, the washer overfilled and caused 15,000 dollars worth of damage to my home. After writing a letter to one of the upper people at GE, my washer was replaced. Same thing has happened again, twice. Casing water damage enough to have Sev-pro come out and set up fans and dehumidifiers up for 3 days to dry everything out. I will never buy GE products again. I would love to be contacted by GE to hear what they have to say.

This washing machine doesn't clean my clothes. Sheets and jeans come out stained and won't come out. I spent a lot of money on my clothes and bedding, not to mention the washer, just to have them ruined.

After 3 years, my washer also won't spin! It's just plain ridiculous to have to spend hundreds of dollars having to get it fixed! I would like to know if you can help me with this situation because the warranty has expired.

H.E. top load washer - I cannot wash bedding without it twisting. There’s not enough water. I have to do very small loads for them to come out clean. It’s only two months old and I hate it.

GE front-load washer with model number WCVH6600HWW: It's constantly unbalanced and just started smoking like it was going to start a fire. I thought it was a belt that had worn out (Maybe?). But I opened the door, and the smoke rolled out of the drum. Our clothes smelled like burned rubber (NASCAR anybody?). Also, there's shaking and moving with the unbalanced issues. Then, clothes need to get re-rinsed and spun to help remove excess soap and water.

In 2007, when our 25 year old GE washer sprung a leak for the second time and could no longer be repaired, we bought a matching GE Profile Washer and Dryer. The washer is King size and has a knob indicating capacity for Extra Large and Super Size loads. It is also marketed as Energy Saving. However, since it doesn't rinse the clothes properly, leaving them soapy and wet, I must run an extra 18-minute rinse cycle. So I don't think I'm saving either energy or water.

The washer and dryer is a combo sold by Best Buy. The washer does not spin the clothes well enough. They are still very wet when the cycle stops. The washer also does not rinse well because soap suds are still in the clothes when the cycle is done (note: I make sure to use the recommended amount of detergent). The dryer trips the circuit quite often and often just fails to operate in the middle of a drying cycle. I have to take out the wet, heavy clothes and take them to the laundromat to dry them.

We purchased a GE front-load washer and a dryer from Home Depot. We have had multiple problems where the washer unit has a very loud noise when the unit goes into spin cycle. The unit has been balanced and checked multiple times, but the inside drum and suspension acts as if the unit is off balance. The authorized repair persons that come out to access the situation run it through a test cycle without clothes, which does not duplicate the problem. We have continued to stress that we would like to run a load of clothes and/or towels that will duplicate the problem. They have refused to do so. We have had four different repairmen come out, after we have called GE, that want to run the same test cycles without clothes, which does not duplicate or uncover the problem. One of the repairmen said you can only run the washer if you have a full load of clothes or towel—ridiculous! Nowhere can we find that in the paperwork nor was I told of this at the time we bought the units.

I purchased the GE Washer Model WCVH6800J1WW in September 2009 from a local appliance store. The washer was delivered and installed by the people from the appliance store. We have been trying to get this washer either repaired or replaced since the first time we used it! No matter what we do, the washer does not spin out properly.

In less than a month, I have had to call the repairman 4times! Apparently, the clutch had gone the first time. It would not spin. The second time the repairman came out, it was again due to the fact that it would not spin or agitate. He replaced the lid switch. It worked for about 2 loads, and started the same thing. The third time we called, he told my son that it must have been a defective lid switch. After 3 loads, again it would not spin!

I purchased two GE washers, Model WCVH6800JWW, for my vacation home, which is a duplex. At 23 months of age, both developed the same service issue. We have spent $700 in parts and service to get one running. We will not invest in repairing the 2nd one, we will simply trash it and move on to another manufacturer.

I purchased a GE front loading washing machine after my top loading machine died on its second birthday. It was a Maytag. I called Home Depot and explained to the manager the problem. She agreed it should have lasted a lot longer and said a replacement would be sent out. I asked to upgrade to a front loader and was advised to purchase the GE. I was so happy that I did. We are a retired couple and I feel our laundry is very light therefore, I thought the upgrade to the GE would have meant many years of service. I was shocked to find out the bearings were out and not worth the repair cost. I also do not believe in the so called extended warranty. Most people can't afford them and I believe if the product is from a good company, it is a cost that is not needed (I thought).

My GE technician came and fixed my only 3-year old washer and charged me almost $700. It was $1000 brand new. And then he had the audacity to leave the nasty heavy broken parts in my house. My invoice number is ** and the technician number was **. Would you please look into this and let me know what you can do to remedy the situation?

Washer Died after 2 Years - Within a year, the motor died and they replaced it. Now, the whole inside system is broken and makes an extremely loud, squeaky annoying sound. The technician said someone messed with it and it was beyond repair. Problem is no one messed with it.

I am constantly trying to clean rubber molding in my washer machine with bleach and disinfectant however, I can't seem to get rid of the mold that keeps forming causing myself and family dangers of being sick from mold. Our clothes smell like mold and we have to rewash from time to time. Please advise how GE expects to resolve this situation.

I've never had a washer that didn't fill the tub with water. I loved the large tub but even on "Extra Heavy", the water is 1/4 or less in the tub. I especially liked it in the store because no center post would not tangle the clothes. I was wrong! The clothes come out so twisted that I can hardly untangle them.

We now say a prayer every time we put a load of clothes thru our two-year old GE high efficiency washing machine. We have articles of clothing coming out with stains on them. We washed the affected clothes again and the stains do not come out. This is totally unacceptable. Good money was spent to purchase this machine and initially we thought we had a great machine. After the first year of use, we started noticing an article or two of clothing coming out of the wash with a stain or two on it. It was sporadic, but we checked our owner’s manual for suggestions. We cleaned out the fabric softener dispenser and have done so on a regular basis since then.

I am unable to close the door of the washing machine, due to the overwhelming smell of mold that continues to increase. The drain on the bottom is always full of water that has an awful odor. My wife is very allergic to mold and has had continued respiratory problems for the last several months. Our clothes and towels smell of mold and I am ready to put this washer out on the curb.

Clothes come out so twisted together and wrinkled, that one is forced to run them through the dryer. No hanging on the line for these wretched looking pieces. No wonder it was on a 10x3% sale. You should not even give away these turkeys. Shame on you, GE. You used to be a dependable company, who made decent products. No more GE appliances for me.

I purchased a GE washer front load and matching dryer with pedestals on 12-18-09 (model number WCVH6800J1WW). I paid $2,033.59 on 1-25-12 (2 years later). I found 4" of water in the pedestal drawer of the washer. I called for repairs, as I had a 5 year warranty (I actually had 1 yr from GE, and thought I was purchasing 5 additional years, but actually got 4 additional years).

Our washer and dryer had had multiple problems. Before Christmas the machine broke again. We contacted GE and we scheduled an appointment for someone to come see the machine. They came and said we needed a new timer. We ordered the timer and scheduled an appointment to fix that. They came back and said that the belt is broken. We ordered the belt and scheduled another appointment. They came again and said that there was a broken nut and bolt that was very large and clearly broken. At this point I had had enough. I contacted customer service and they agreed to send us a brand new machine free of charge. They had someone contact me to choose the new machine. They asked me "is your machine electric or gas?” I said, "I believe it’s gas because it has tubes coming out the back but I don’t have the machine in front of me to tell you; maybe you can look it up being that you’ve serviced the machine 6 times now." They look it up and said, "The machine is electric, please chose from two options.”

GE Energy Star Top Load Washer model # GTWN505MWS, serial # AV134045G: It was delivered from Home Depot on Jan. 26, 2010. The product did not wash clothes clean on day one. Lint and dark spots were left on clothes. HE laundry soap was used. I tried different HE products, sizes of loads, and sorted clothes. It never came out clean. I installed a house water system with 1 micron filter plus a new water heater - temp set at 140. The clothes were still not clean.

GE Profile WPRE6150K2WT purchased in Sept. 2010, after last child left for college. Ic ould only go with a top load due to size in laundry room. It was 'sold' on high efficiency, water saver, etc. The machine never fills up with enough water. I tend to wash smaller loads for that reason. If the load is too large, the clothes come out with lint and dirt, so have to rewash. In the last six months, we have been noticing 'spots' on the laundry when it comes out.

Two years ago, I bought a GE Washer model no. WJRE5550K2WW from Lowe's. Before the year was out, I noticed having unclean clothes. Called GE, very friendly repair service. Replaced a motor. Repair guy said was first generation motor with second generation motor. Three months later, clothes are still unclean and soap scum.

Bought a front load washing machine and can't even wash 3 towels without it shaking and they are still selling these at Lowes. Just don't want someone else to have this problem without being warned. Thanks.

I have WCVH6260 GE front load washer. I have a terrible problem with mold & smelly clothes as well as smelly water.

My mother-in-law bought a new GE Wavetech washing machine, model number WCRE6270H1CC. She was complaining of it banging when it should be washing. I checked it out and apparently the clutch system had failed, causing the machine to try to agitate the clothes with a stuck clutch.

Two years ago, I bought a GE washer (model no.WJRE5550K2WW, serial number MS162926G) from Lowe's, and it is the worst machine ever designed. It doesn't clean, it doesn't soak, it doesn't rinse, and it sounds like it's torturing small animals. The Stop/Start button may or may not start the machine, and now I have to spend money to fix a machine that should best be used as a boat anchor! I need to run the 2nd rinse all the time, just to be sure most (not all) of the soap is removed. It tangles everything so badly, which gives clothes wrinkles, that couldn't be removed by the dryer. It doesn't fill enough to wash and rinse, so everything sits in a murky bath.

Model WCVH6600HWW. 2010 front load hydro washing machine. We've always had a problem with our clothes coming out smelly. Turns out it is mold. There is mold smell in the drum and a ton right behind the dispenser. I wish I had a fix for it. GE does not.

One and a half year old HydroWave washing machine does not spine, which makes it junk because it is more expensive to fix than to replace. When we were sold the machine, we were sold on it by a sales man that talked it up so much. It has not been a great machine.

I purchased a GE clothes washer, model no. WHDSR109J5WW serial no. STR170753G, from Home Depot, Denham Springs, LA, in November 2010. The timer knob stripped. When I removed it to replace it with a $3.50 knob, I found that the teeth on the timer was almost stripped, which cost $82. The material used is very poor. They would last but 13 months.

I have a 2-year-old GE washer, model # WJRE5500G2W that has been breaking down every week since late October. I have a case number ** with GE and when I called today about my problems, I was told that my case manager had closed my case even though the problem was not solved.

The washer will not spin. It's only 3 years old. Send someone to fix it for free or refund my money.

I have 2008 5100 model front load. I paid $999.99 cash. It did not last 3 years. Now I have dirty clothes. There’s no way to wash them. I cannot buy a new one at this time. I have limited income.

I bought GE Hydrowave Washer WBSR3140G1WW from Alabama Power in January 2008. On September 2010, the agitator/spin stopped (thank God I had extended warranty!). The repairman replaced the motor (valued at approx. $300, according to him). On November 11, 2011, the agitator/spin stopped again. Alabama Power repairman said it was the motor again, along with leak in seal tube. I had to order the motor. The repairman said his boss wanted to give me 'cash' on another washer. I told him no. His boss said sometimes parts are discontinued. I told the repairman that if I ever heard those GE Washer parts were 'discontinued', I would alert others online that Alabama Power does not stand behind their extended warranty. I will keep you posted.

We purchased a GE frontload washer in 2008. 3 months later, we began to notice mold growing on the gasket. I bleached it once a week to try to keep it from growing. By 8 months, the mold smell was horrible. I peeled back the gasket and there was mold all around. From then on, I alternated with bleach and vinegar. I called the warranty company and they said they never heard of such a problem and to just keep spraying it with bleach. Fast forward 3 years and bottles of bleach and vinegar later, the laundry room smells of mold as well as all of our clothing. My husband now has an inhaler and has been coughing and seems to have a cold all the time since Dec 2008.

After the first year and warranty was up, the rubber seal ripped. I had to replace it and it was very expensive. This is not energy efficient. It takes double the time to wash. It sounds like a freight train, and now, it made a loud sound and smoke was coming out. I can't use it and don't want to put more money into it again. It is a piece of junk.

I bought a GE Adora front loader washer (model # whdvh626fww, serial # dl201692t) back in June 2006 for $900.00. First week, we had to put in a service call as the washer wouldn't drain. The repairman told me to take off the front bottom cover and turn the knob to open and it release water backup weekly. What a pain! The water (and clothes) smell, the washer shakes so bad when it is spinning, my detergent fell off the top of washer when in spin cycle. This week I put a load of clothes in and left the laundry room, within 5 minutes, my laundry room was filled with smoke. I pushed the power button off, opened the door and the smoke poured out. I was not sure what was smoking, but I did find a large rubber piece (maybe from around the door) inside the washer. I am now without a washer. This model is awful! Stay away from GE washers!

After the initial wash cycle, the washer drains and enters "rinse and soak," which consists of the washer filling up with water (only halfway) and sitting for a few minutes. No agitation, it just stops. This leaves soap suds still in my clothes when I take them out of the washer. Every other washing machine I've used in the past has filled up to the top and agitated for a few minutes. This one under fills and just sits there, then drains and leaves soapy clothes.

I bought GE washer in 2008. It failed three weeks ago. I called GE and they said it has been recalled and don't attempt to use it. There' no GE service man in our town. They said they would pay me $100 if I would haul it 115 miles to a service center where they would make repairs to the problem. I returned home with washer and it didn't work. GE says they replaced the bad wires and they are done with their obligation. We never even received a recall notice and I filled out the warranty card. I tested the voltage at the pump with the machine turned off and it's drawing 67 volts! What else is fried in the machine?

I purchased a top load hydrowave washer (model WJRE5500G2WW) last Oct 2008. After only a few months, the motor had to be replaced, it was under warranty then. Now, the machine will not spin while in the spin cycle. I have also had issues with slow fill. I also purchased the matching dryer and have had no problem. This washer is an absolutely trash.

A new GE washer and dryer set (the washer model GLWN5050MOWS is the hydro wave infusor HE low water 3.6 cu. ft) was installed by Lowes . We had new stainless water lines put in, too.

I bought a GE Washer and Dryer Set from Home Depot in August of 2008. At that time, I purchased a 4-year extended warranty. The washer has given me nothing but trouble. It jumps all around when it spins and shuts off during the spin cycle of almost every load. It started when it was about a year old. I have had the warranty company out at least 7 times, 3 being in the last week for the same problem that has not been fixed. I have complained to GE, my local Home Depot, as well as the national customer service line to no avail. They all refuse to replace the washer. It clearly states in the warranty that if they attempt to fix the same problem more than 3 times they will replace the washer. The washer is clearly dented on both sides from the inside out and I have been told things by the repairman like, "It's just a finicky machine" and "You are not putting in enough laundry".

I bought a GE Profile Washer, model WPRE6150K2WT, in 2010. This was touted as a high-efficiency, water-saving model. It does not get things being washed cleaned. In fact, there is often more dirt on the things being washed when they are removed after the complete cycle. It just does not rinse and remove dirt well. The "low water use" claim is a sham because more water is needed just to get the dirt off, if you're lucky. I wrote to the manufacturer to complain. They responded with a list of problem solving solutions to the "lint" problem. This was not just a lint problem but soil and other residue.

I purchased a GE WBVH5300K0WW front loading washing machine in August 2009 from Home Depot. On April 2010, it broke down and I had it repaired. On July 2010, there was a recall on a part. The repair person was back again. On September 2011, the washing breaks down again. This time, it's the belt and the gasket (which was already replaced in the first breakdown, but because it was under warranty and I didn't pay for it, it is not warranted now), and a $488 bill.

I brought a GE Frontload dry and washer in 2006. I had to repair the rubber tub every year since I got the washer and replace parts for the dryer. On the first year, GE replaced one washer because this happened twice within 3 months. The warranty ran out so I had to pay a repairman to come out and repair the machine. My husband and I repaired the dryer.

Less then 3 yrs ago I purchased a GE Washer WJRE5500G2WW model. It broke 5 times within 3 months; a lemon. They gave me a new one, same model and it broke 3 times. They serviced it, fine. Now less then 3 yrs later, it stopped spinning and agitating. I waited 4 days for a service tech who calls me on the phone. I was then out of state and they ask me why he was at my house. I told him that they told me he was to check the machine to see what the problem was. If it was the motor he was to replace it at $68.00 plus labor and the $99.95 service charge was being waived. The total was $244.90, which was wrong. My son had nonetheless given him a check for.

Simply put, I used a volt meter and found that same with timer purchased for top loader washing machine older GE but yet to have right front electric motor pump. The new timer has same fault as old bad timer. The prong that is supposed to be hot (voltage 115) for the spin cycle is not. No voltage and the timer motor makes several clicks (sounds like jumping teeth on the gears) before it engages to auto on every cycle to run the machine (this is a new timer).

I purchased a GE Stationary Washer (top load) Product #WSLS1500JWW in June of 2010. I made a first service call in August because the machine would not fill with water and was giving me an FF code. The technician came and showed me these tiny filters that were located where the water fills into the machine. The filters were the size of a pencil eraser and were getting clogged with sand which was coming through my water.

I wanted to give this machine a fair chance before writing a review or complaint (model # GTWS3000M1WS). I've done laundry for well over 42 years and have always owned a GE brand machine. Recently, my old machine developed a transmission leak. Had I known then what I know now, I would have had the old machine repaired regardless of the cost. I'm sure it would have been far less than the $450 I just spent on this new one. The first machine I received not only didn't wash, it didn't spin either. It just filled with water then dumped it out, mostly on the floor. Lowes gladly replaced it. The second machine works, but does not get the clothes clean. I emailed the GE consumer relations department to make a complaint. I explained to them that a washer is purchased with the sole purpose of getting your clothes clean. This was their response.

I bought a GE Washer/Dryer set on March 10, 2008 thinking that it would last me at least 10-20 years based on what the sales representative presented. However, in July 2011 (only 2 1/2 years later) the washer went out. Conn's expressed that since I did not purchase the extended warranty, the only thing that they could do was to offer to send a repairman out at my expense at approximately $100 for a service fee. This is not inclusive of the actual repair cost. Needless to say, you should know what my answer was on a product that was purchased for a little less than $400. I am now out of a brand new washing machine, unable to purchase another one at this time and highly upset that the machine did not last for at least 10-20 years. The inside cover of the washer says, "service every 5 years". It didn't even last 3 years! Money wasted and I feel that it was a misrepresentation of product...a scam!

I transferred my personal washer and dryer to a rental property and purchased a new set of GE HE washer and dryer a little over a year ago. I do wash often, but I was told these were high-efficiency and I expected them to work like charm.

I have had my washing machine for approximately three years and it has broken down twice. The model number is WHDRR41HG1WW and the serial number is TM920503G. I paid a lot of money for this machine, partly because it has a stainless steel basket inside. The first time it broke down, I had a GE service representative come and fix it. I don't think I should have to pay again for what could possibly be the same problem. It has stopped spinning the water out of it. Please just fix my washer. I cannot afford to have it fixed by anyone else. I am retired and I live on SS.

My washer only fills with water on the rinse cycle and rest for a period of time then spins the water out. After calling the store, where the washer was purchased, a serviceman came out and replaced the part which controls the timing on the cycle which we both thought to be improper timing.

I needed a new washer and dryer, and of course being from the old school, knew the GE was the best. I am a widow and on a fixed income with no other means of support. It took me about six months to save the money to first buy the washer one year and two months ago, then the dryer--both being about $450.

I bought a GE washer model number WPREG150K2WT and serial number is LT180196G back in July of 2010.

The inner spring that holds the drum in place broke which sent the drum into several different directions. Due to this action the outer drum is now broken which is a repair of over four hundred dollars. I have been told by the repair man that these springs are built not to break. The washer is only five years old.

I am an electrical engineer. My GE washer motor is not working. It is a three phase 120V 60Hz, electronically protected motor made in China. I am of the opinion that the PWM circuit is faulty. I need a circuit diagram. Can you help me?

My builder's model washing machine GE malfunctioned causing $17,000 worth of damage, for which I had to pay deductible of $2,000. Then again on May 8, my upstairs neighbor's washing machine caused a flood that went into my condo. I had to pay another $2,000 deductible, because in FL, you are responsible even though it was your neighbor's washing machine that caused the damage. He had the same problem with the GE model number WCSE4160B1WW.

Two weeks ago, my 5-year old washing machine, HRE5260EWW, stopped spinning and was making a terrible noise. When the repair man came, he showed me that the stainless steel tub had separated from the agitator. He said he had never seen anything like it . Whatever metal attaching the tub to the agitator was shattered and split into little pieces and spread all over the tub.He said it could not be repaired.
