Cannot thank you enough for your videos and especially your expertise in appliances!!!! One can hear that you have great knowledge and experience in appliances. I’m looking for a really good non-tech washer like the good ole kind. Home Depot (although not my favorite store) has this on sale for around $530. Benevolent blessings 🍀
Just watched another video of this washer in action. Very noisy..sounds like two ducks in heat. Outer tub turns during agitation..so don’t think agitator works like an old washer. It’s a slow sloshing, and fabrics don’t get pulled under water very well.. they sort of float. I’m hanging on to my 24 year old Kenmore as long as I can.
I just bought this washer and got the 5 year warranty. My question is, since GE has the 1 year warranty, does the 5 year warranty kick in after the 1 year warranty?
I have this exact model GE … it’s ok … does the job . Sometimes no matter how cautious I am in loading it , it falls out of balance . I definitely won’t purchase another GE washer after this goes … I’ll bite the price bullet and go with a Speed Queen …entirely USA built !
Be careful buying speed queen washer, I bought one last week ( never heard of this brand)tr5 because of good reviews. 2 hrs after the installation I tried to wash clothes, it run only for 10 SECONDS then died . Tech came the next day found pressure sensor/ board & harness broken & needed to be replaced. This is a brand new machine , what happened Speed Queen, I’m baffled. Anyway returning it.
I have had this washer since 5/2021 So far so good. Is there a filter that can be cleaned/replaced? If so, where is it? Nothing in the owners' manual mentions this. TIA
Can you show us how to clean this machine? I see where so many people open it below somewhere and clean it good. I hear you should do that every so often. We have the matching dryer that I have to clean too. Thanks in advance!!
Honestly - I’ve had my off brand cheap-o washer for over 20 years now. Absolutely zero odor. Never used a cleaning product. Leave lid open when not in use and I never put fabric softener in the washer (causes gunky build up). To be fair- I have only used powdered laundry detergent too. I heard from someone who repairs washing machines that the liquid detergents gunk it up too. I also use only half the recommended amount of product. Good luck!!!
@@carolschedler3832 EXCESSIVE USE of powder, pods, liquid detergent, and fabric softener will eventually lead to gunk, slime, and washer stench. At worst, your washer will cease functioning due to a clogged filter & drain.
I bought the GTW 465 a s n o w w model I cannot even get it started I don't know what I'm doing it just hasn't worked. is there anybody out there that can walk me through it

Be aware of time fill on a GE top-loader, guys.

How much longer do these last compared to the amana?
I have been using softener for years and I have yet to have an issue.

I agree. I hate it

No
How does this compare to their commercial counterpart?
I'm not a big fan of the suspension on these new GE/Hotpoint washers.
Neither am I. Granted, I do use fabric softener on all my laundry without issue.

I hope u figured it out.. took me a a few min to start mine
I care more about what it’s made of under the hood.
How much
Fake review the clothes just float even if the “agitator” is moving clothes just floats.
I HATE THIS WASHER... MY CLOTHES NEVER SMELL CLEAN
Not to mention it bangs anytime i do towels or blankets.
