GE Washer Review Summary

"Who doesn't love clean, fresh clothes?" I think you'd be hard-pressed to find anyone that doesn't, and reviewers think you'll have an easy time keeping those clothes clean with a GE Washer. Some saw an "immediate difference" in their laundry after switching to the GE brand, due to "the agitator being more vigorous." They also appreciate the super-size tub that allows them to wash larger loads. It's simple enough for older kids to use, but the biggest attraction to this washer could be the brand name, as some reviewers feel GE Washers are the best on the market. A few report it breaking down too soon, "just after the warranty runs out." But overall, reviewers have had such success with this washing machine, they're asking, "Why did I wait so long to get a GE washer?"

Without a model number, I can't be completely sure this is the GE Top Load Washer I purchase from Home Depot in Oct., but it sure looks the same in the picture.

We surrendered an old Tappan washer/dryer set, because they were just plain worn out. I was so happy to see an immediate difference in our laundry...

Very disappointed in this product.  Paid $400 for this thing, thought at the time we bought a half way decent washing machine, especially sent GE has been around awhile, well I guess we were wrong.  Just after the warranty ran out, we can't get just cold water out of it, we have to watch that the warm water doesn't turn to just HOT mid fill and now the on button (which is attached to the main board, of all things is PLASTIC)  I had a service man take a look at it and the main board alone is over $200, he told me that it would be a waste of money to fix this machine, that I would be throwing...

GE Washer S2100G5WW. This is my newest washer. I have just moved into this new home, I bought a washer and Dryer actually. I wanted a temporary one until I am ready to replace a better one that was destroyed in the move. I am still in the testing stages, but this model is a life saver. The sheer simplicity makes it an attractive purchase, but my big surprise came when I forgot that this was not my previous washer and I used it as would have used my old heavy duty washer (I'll leave that model out since it is not under review). Have you ever washed pillows in a home washer? They get really heavy...

GE washing machines are one of the best machines I have ever owned, I buy them and if they go out, I buy another as they are to me the most reliable washing machine. I do not however suggest buying parts for them as the parts are pretty high on price. So if your on a budget like mine, purchase a used one, we have had the same one that I purchased used 3 1/2 years ago and it is still running great.

I just purchased a GE washer and I love it. The clothes come out cleaner because the agitator is more vigorous then past washers I have owned.,I love the super size tub I can wash larger loads or still do the small batch up if i want to.It was quick to install and is easy for my teens to use so they can throw in a load if they choose.

I bought a GW Profile washer (model WJRE5500G1WW) 18 months ago when we moved to our new home. There are many features on it I never liked but it did an adequate job and we weren't in a position to buy a new one. Now it has been unuseable for two weeks, going on three. First it needed a new lid switch, now the control panel has to be replaced.

I have been on the phone with several GE reps (and It was extremely difficult to get to talk to a real live human being!) who give the same mantra, "It's out of warranty. It's your problem." One tech suggested it was not a problem with the machine but we...

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...

Just bought a GE Top Loading Washing Machine from Home Depot.  It's not top of the line but for the price has been everything I needed in a washing machine.  It is amazingly quiet compared to my now defunked 11 year old Maytag.

 So glad I made this investment!

This washing machine is just great.  It holds very large loads and gets them clean.  I runs quietly as well.  No fancy bells and whistles just gets clothes clean.

My new GE washer cleans my clothes and is so quiet when it is running that it does not interfer with hearing the TV. Very nice. I don't know why I waited so long to replace my old washing machine.
