Great Price for a Great Product!!!,
March 19, 2007
By KathyInPa
"I've been wanting to purchase a front load washer for some time. When I saw the price of this machine and realized this wasn't a compact that you could only do a small load, I couldn't pass this deal up - especially since Home Depot was having a special of no payments and no interest for 12 months on their credit card.
I was worried abut that saying - you get what you pay for. I certainly didn't have to worry about this purchase! This washer is wonderful! It holds so many clothes, cleans them extremely well (and so gently!), controls are very easy to use (select your cycle and push start and it does the rest!), and if it weren't for the quiet swoosh sound of water every now and then, you wouldn't even know it was running! Oh, did I mention that it uses very little water compared to top loaders and it's an energy saver product? It also spins out the water so well that it doesn't take long at all to dry your load of clothes. One thing that surprised me is that you can pause or cancel the cycle that will unlock the door once it has started - I didn't think you could do that with front load washers. Great feature if you missed something!
Overall - THIS WASHER PAY FOR ITSELF!!!"

front-load washer user friendly,
March 2, 2007
By mastermechanic60
"The GE 3.5 Cu. Ft. King-size Capacity Front- Load Washer is very simple to use and washes clothes better than any top loader I have ever used. It uses less water, washes more clothes and cleans them better. The controls are easy to use and adding detergent, fabric softner and bleach is so easy. There is no guessing when the right time to add bleach or fabric softner. The machine does everything for you. I highly recommend this machine."

Doesn't deserve any less than 5 STARS!,
February 28, 2007
By Shanntrick
"My husband and I bought this washer because we were sick of dealing with used ones. We are still newly weds so this was a very nice washer to have! I love it! The first time I used it I thought it was broken because it was sooooo quiet! I was so used to the noisy sounds that a washer made that I wasn't expecting it to be so quiet. The only thing that makes any type of noise is when the water flows in and it's not even that noisy when that happens. I also love that the spin cycle makes my drying time less. My towels were just a little damp and that's it! I like how I can just put my detergent and fabric softener in the drawer so I won't have to worry about dispensing my detergent evenly. I also like how I don't have to worry about balancing my load too. The best part about this machine is the price! It is a lot cheaper then the others ones and is still as awesome as you need a washer to be. Also, I shopped around too and Home Depot had the best prices on washers BY FAR! I love this washer and I hope that I'll be able to get the matching dryer soon and the pedestal so that I can make it a little higher because i'm tall! I recommend this washer to everyone!"

I LOVE this washer,
February 22, 2007
By R3790
"I got this washer and dryer as a set. I love them. I can put close in and just leave it. there are alot of choices and most of the setting are already set when you turn it on. (even though you can change them if you like) This washer uses very little water it spins it a great deal and gets most of it out when your done. It's very quiet so you can turn it on and sleep in the next room with ease. Since it's front load and all the controls are on the front you can fold on top and the controls and door can be locked so children can't change them or open it while running. This is the best washer i've owned and a great brand and price. Large enough on the inside for a full family but small enough on the outside for an appartment. You can also put them under counters or stack them with an optional attachment ($20) or use them as counters....thank you"

Great machine for 30 months,
January 8, 2010
By ishopathomedepotalot
"No problems for 30 months, then the machine stopped draining. I had to take off the front bottom panel and undo band clamps and unclog the filter. One month later I had trouble with it not spinning. Over all not a bad machine, but I will try a different brand next time."

Difficulties with Installation as a stacked unit,
December 6, 2009
By DebbieH
"I purchased this washer and the 5.8 cu ft gas dryer as a stacked unit for an alcove closet with approx 3" clearance on both sides. Making adjustments with the leveling legs was virually impossible due to the cramped quarters. The rear levels cannot be accessed once the washer is in place. To complicate matters, I purchased the anti vibration pads. The adjustable leveling legs rest in the anti vibration pads and cannot be turned with a wrench without picking the unit up from the anti vibration pads. With this unit being advertised for alcove and/or undercabinet installations, leveling is definitely a problem. The washer works well though. Initially, the washer kept making beeping noises when NOT in use (indicating a problem with the drain line?). After a couple of days the beeps stopped. Never did find the source of that error code. The door collects a little water which drips when you open it. This could be a result of our inability to effectively level it. Overall it appears to be a good product but I think GE should rethink the rear leveling legs."

Don't buy GE products it gets a 0 star from me,
October 17, 2009
By lole894
"I hate this washer. Since I bought it, almost a year ago, all it has given me is a headache! Suds always remain on the door, detergent leaks, capacity is NOT KING SIZED and the spin cycle is AWFUL!!! Clothes always stay with too much water. Right now I've spent TWO days trying to drain the water. I followed the trouble shooting instructions and it hasn't worked. I have an LG dryer which is wonderful. Thought I was getting a great deal on this washer but it has been a terrible nightmare. I will now have to call for service and take my laundry out. I don't need this!!!"

Good Washer,
June 12, 2009
By tf10
"I have had this washer for about 8 months and am pleased with it. The load capacity is good and it operates well. The variety of settings gives me options for washing fabrics that were washed by hand before. It is quiet as long as the legs are not set too high which is advised against in the manual anyway.
It does not appear to completely clean heavily soiled items the first time, though it performs well in every other area.
As to be expected, it is very heavy. You will need a lot of help to move it.
Overall, it is a good washer and the Home Depot price is better than other stores."

Great Washer,
May 11, 2009
By elvisthebird
"This is my first front load washer and I like it alot. I'm only 5' tall so this makes it easier for me to get all the clothes out of the washer and with it being an energy saver too, that just sweetens the deal. I was a little concerned about not being able to regulate the water for the amount of clothes washed and about some of the other reviews saying that there would be a mildew problem if you didn't dry the inside door rubber everytime you finished, but it seems to choose the amount of water just fine and if you leave the door open when not washing, it will dry and air out all by itself. If you have back problems,OR over 5 ft, be sure to get the pedestal to go with it. All in all, it's a great washer and I can't wait to get the dryer to match."

the door locker seems not good, both one design and real effect. The gap between door and roller is bigger, socks are easy got stuck inside."

Great Value,
April 19, 2009
By HeatherL35
"This washing machine exceeded my expectations in almost every way. The only negative features apply to front load washers in general (maintenance of the rubber gasket of the front load door and having to use a special type of laundry soap, ie. more expensive), not this particular product. This washer is extremely quiet and the spin cycle hardly vibrates at all. The laundry room is on my second floor so the low vibration makes a big difference in the noise level downstairs. I've been very happy with it and would recommend this product."

By My2dogs
"Delivery was quick and installers were very professional.
Washer is very quiet and seems to do a great job on cleaning garmets. Uses al lot less water and spin cycle really gets a lot of moisture out of clothes so dryer does not have to work as hard.
I would recommend this washer to anyone looking for a front loader."

"This washer work pretty well, quiet then I expected. It was easy to install. The only disadvantage is small coin could drop into gasket and the gasket look pretty weak. However, if user uses it properly and carefully, this should be a very attractive washer."

Worth it,
March 16, 2009
By nativetrucker
"This washer has more room then I expected it to. This is the first front loader I have ever bought. I was empressed by how little water it used. Clothes seem to have come out cleaner and dryer so drying time was also shorter. I have never been able to do a full load of laundry that fast before. And I think I am really going to like it."

Stepped up to front loader, glad I did,
March 5, 2009
By KnuckleBanger
"Our Maytag washer, about 5 years old, started leaving heavier loads a sopping mess. Checked belt tension -- seemed OK. Sprayed belt dressing (from auto parts store) to give it more bite, but no dice. No other obvious parts replacement. Feared replacing one expensive part, then another, then another. HD's price on this washer -- $539 --made me look MUCH more closely. 950 rpm spin cycle? Where do I sign?
Great washer, thin documentation. So here's what I've found:
Normal cycle with no extra spin or rinse takes 45 minutes. Detergent: Get the HD detergent. Don't try to use up your old stuff; too many suds and too many rear bearing failures mentioned in these forums to think there isn't some truth to it. Don't chance it.
The washer's a marvel. There's no setting for load size. Load your clothes and the amount of detergent for that load size and the washer figures out how much water to add. First it adds enough water to get everything wet (slowly tumbling in alternate directions), then adds more water and the detergent and starts washing. The coolest thing is the spin cycle, which goes from low -- to pump out most of the water, then medium, which evacuates a surprisingly large amount of water, then high which is enough to put you in a giggling fit. Well, me anyway.
Get the extra warranty. It's probably a good investment. This thing is loaded with sensors, puts incredible loads on the bearings, and asks a lot of the rubber seal. Don't sweat it. You'll save money on detergent, water (20 gals. vs. 50 gals. per load) and, most importantly, time in the dryer. Also, and maybe it's just me, your clothes will look brighter and may even last longer.
Oh, and wipe the gasket dry and leave the door open when you're done for the day (or night). Mold and mildew doesn't just smell bad; it attacks the rubber on the seal. And if that doesn't destroy your seal, the harsh chemicals required to get rid of it will.
I've been washing everything in sight for the past week with no disappointments. And I'm DEFINITELY no neat freak. That's how cool this washer is."
