Junk

The machine is supposed to be self balancing. It doesn't. The machine is perfectly level but when it spins it moves around on the floor. When washing the load gets out of balance it squeals like 2 pieces of metal grinding together. You have to pause it and move the clothes around until you get the clothes balanced.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi! We are so sorry to hear that you are having trouble with your washer being out of balance and know you must be frustrated.

If your washer is unbalanced we would recommend to pause the cycle, rearrange the clothes in the drum, reduce some clothes if it's overloaded, and start the cycle again.
If you haven’t already, we recommend scheduling an appointment with our factory service and repair team by calling 1-800-GECares (1-800-432-2737) Monday – Friday: 7 a.m. – 10 p.m. ET and Sunday: 8 a.m. – 6 p.m. ET, or by visiting https://www.geappliances.com/ge/service-and-support/service.htm

We look forward to assisting you in any ways that we can! -Charlie@GEA

Poor cleaning
on April 1, 2023
Posted by: Fajakh
from Philadelphia, PA
This machine just soaks the cloths, drains the water then spins them. Some cloths might not even get wet. Stainy cloth come out of the washer with their untouched stain. I am extremely dissatisfied with its performance.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Only use if you like replacing your clothes
on August 8, 2023
Posted by: MrPaw
Pros. Does clean clothes Love the Tap Water cycle. Love the Pause setting for soaking
Cons. 1) Only one spin speed “destroy “, even on delicate. One spin speed for all settings. I have to babysit and manually stop washer during spin cycle to protect clothes. Only good for towels. Not good if you hang out laundry-too wrinkled
2) No Downey option Not good if you hang out laundry
3) Cannot add additional water. So you have to wash more frequently and smaller loads.
4) Never ever use the low water level. Even for one piece of laundry. It will be reduced to threads. Way too violent for use

Hi there,

We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review on your Hotpoint top-load washer. We love to hear the pros and cons that you have when it comes to this appliance as this ensures that our product design teams are aware of any changes or perfections we can make to improve the overall performance and convenience an appliance has to offer.

With that being said, we are truly sorry to hear that you are finding that the spin and agitation is too rough and ruins your clothing. This is certainly not normal operation, nor the quality that we expect.

We recommend scheduling a service appointment with GE Appliances factory service team. You can schedule an appointment by calling the Service Department directly at 1-800-432-2737 Monday – Friday: 8 a.m. – 8 p.m. ET, or by scheduling online at the following link: https://www.geappliances.com/ge/service-and-support/service.ht

Thank you for your review, and for choosing GE Appliances for your home!

Worst washer we have ever owned & do NOT recommend
on November 30, 2023
Posted by: MJohnTr
Worst washer we have ever owned. First 5 months and the gear box blew out, luckily that was under warranty. Since then it has always had trouble with sensing water level, computer gets confused on what to do when, and had the water drain pump fail. Between this and other premature failure of GE products I will be buying from other companies.
