My wife and I replaced an old GE Top Load Washer about 1-1/2 years ago. Being a Navy Submarine Vet where Front Load was all we used, I suggested that we get a Ge Front Load Machine. "BIG MISTAKE"!!! The water conservation feature does not allow enough water to fill the machine to be effective. When the clothes finish washing, there is a stagnant odor that suggests the clothes are not thoroughly clean. Our white clothing are systematically turning gray. My T-shirts are literally dark (almost black) in the underarm part of the shirts. This is probably due to residual deoderant not coming out during the washing process. We paid a substantial amount of money (per our income) for our machines- Washer & Dryer with stands. We are now shopping for a Top Load Washer because we are so frustrated and dissatisfied. I have offered to give away my Front Load in exchange for a Top Load. I went to Home Depot a few days ago and spoke with an appliance salesperson and explained the problems we are having. She suggested that we wash the clothes in the normal setting then wash them a second time in the Sanitize Cycle. Washing each load twice defeats the purpose of Water Conservation. I have never been so dissatisfied in my entire life about a product. I have many friends that have been in the market for Front Loads and I strongly urge them to get the Top Loads. I don't know if my issue is a GE issue or an issue with the technology. Either way the machine doesn't work to my satisfaction and will be replaced. Maybe I should video tape me crushing the machine and put it on Youtube to show how I really feel. What makes matters worse is that I read a couple of reviews that indicated the same problems I am experiencing. But since the happy reviews outweighed the unhappy reviews, I disregarded what I was reading. By the way, I have tried using different brands of HE Detergeants. SAME RESULTS!!!!
