GE Washer Review

We built our house in April 2006 and had a new GE washer put in then. It already has stopped working. It skips cycles, smells horribly and the hose has disconnected and spilled gallons and gallons of water all over my floor. If I did not have tile and noticed the spills right when they happened, I would have had some huge clean up bills. Three years just does not seem like the right timeframe for a washer to go on the fritz. My parents had the same washer with very few problems for almost 20 years. In all honesty, I am not very fond of GE for any of my appliances, all of which are GE. I really expected a much higher quality from a company that has been around so long. I also have not had the best customer service from the company. The builder, always referred us to GE when we had a problem with appliances and it states right on their website you will be charged a fee regardless of the outcome of their visit. This personally does not work for me. Next time I will buy a different brand of appliances.
