GE - Stainless Steel Energy Star King Size Capacity Washer Review

The Energy Star 3.8 IEC cu. Ft. King-Sized Capacity Frontload Washer

GE

Two weeks ago, I decided to have my laundry room remodeled.  It was old and dingy and I hated to do laundry because of it.  One week later, the work has begun and it's looking pretty spiffy!  How in the world could I put my old, crotchety washer and dryer back in there?  I couldn't. 

Bright and early the next morning, I was on my way Home Depot to buy a new washer and dryer!  The employee there was very knowledgeable about his department and after I told him what I was looking for, he pointed me towards this particular machine.

The Energy Star by GE is stylish, big and works like a dream!  I am actually very excited to do laundry now.  It holds almost twice as much as my old machine washed!  Which saves me time and we all know how valuable time is these days!  The Home Depot associate than told me how the Energy Star model saves on your water, electric and gas (dryer) bills....so basically it pays for itself.  Yay!

There are a lot of different settings to use on this washer and so far, I haven't tried them all yet.  I can say that the regular wash cycle and the delicate cycle work great!   What surprised me the most about this washing machine is how quiet it is.  My old washer was very loud and almost annoying when you're trying to watch television in the family room next door. 

My one complaint about this machine is the pedestal that it sits on.  It's great because I don't have to bend over to load/unload the machine.  The drawer in the pedestal that slides out to hold your laundry detergent, fabric softener, etc. is too small.  I bought the smallest bottle of detergent in the brand that I like and it doesn't fit.  What had attracted me to the pedestals was being able to hide my laundry products.

I know all the hype is about front load washers and dryers and I didn't quite understand why.  Now, I know!  I'm jumping on the bandwagon about this one.  All around it's the perfect choice for a washing machine.  It's size, cost and amount of money that it saves on your utility bills earns this baby 5 stars! :)
