Amazing family washer. Very easy to use and holds a large capacity.

Get a lot of research before upgrading my machine. Found that GE it’s by far the top of the line with additional specs. Got it in a few days ago, has not disappointed. Very quiet and accurate. User-friendly even for those not technology inclined. Mark phone app and smart dispense are a bonus.

I went from a top-loader with an agitator to this front-loader… Night & Day.
There are certain things I miss about my top-loader, but so far I love this washer. It is easy to use, has a lot of cleaning options, I really like the sanitize option.
The venting works well, time will of course tell regarding “smell”. Overall so far so good, I really like the washer and will update to 5 stars if it continues to perform this well with no issues.

This washing machine has met the needs of our large family. I made sure to really use this machine A LOT in the first two weeks we owned it because I was prepared to send it back if it didn’t live up to my expectations. No return was necessary! I love this machine! I have two toddlers and three big kids. The toddlers usually end up with layers of food on their clothes by the end of the day but this machine can get them out. I have had to clean up several diaper blowouts and potty accidents since owning this machine and it could handle all of them–without having to run everything through the wash twice. I can run the machine on the “Normal” setting and everything comes out clean and smelling fresh the first time. I use the Smart Dispense feature, which is really handy for instructing the 10-year-old on how to run a load of laundry. All he has to do is turn the dial to “Normal” and press start. No over-measuring detergent or trying to rinse out the measuring cup. I am able to put my hand wash items into lingerie bags and run the “Delicate” cycle without any damage to my items. Even items washed in cold water come out completely clean almost every time. Only once have I had to wash something a second time, but it was a tricky stain and the fabric required cold water and a delicate cycle. I am also really pleased with how much laundry the machine can handle and still get everything clean. I am able to do laundry less frequently and run fewer loads because it can handle so much. I have not used any of the wireless features and do not really plan to, so I cannot speak to that. I run the UltraFresh Vent System when I am done with laundry for the day and the washer has remained mold- and odor-free. However, I always wipe down the gasket and door with a soft cloth before I run the vent cycle because I noticed that water would form a small puddle at the bottom of the gasket that would still be there when the vent cycle was done. When I do a quick once-over on the gasket and door before I run the vent cycle, everything is dry at the end. Overall, this was a great purchase that has made me look forward to laundry day!

Love love love this machine. The capacity is amazing. The anti microbial everything is superb. Love the attention to detail. The venting system is great… but it runs for more than 8 hours. I just leave the door open. The light goes off eventually.

I love this washer! It holds so many clothes and washes everything very well. The settings are easy to use. I didn’t think I would use the auto dispense feature much, but find myself leaving that on auto all of the time. It dispenses the amount based on size of the load and settings used, so there’s just enough soap each time. The venting feature is fabulous and truly dries the inside of the washer when activated. The self clean cycle is great too! I chose this machine primarily for the siz and the way the door seal is built (nothing can get stuck inside of it and its easy to clean). I haven’t found any downsides to this machine yet.
