Best washing machine to get clean clothes fast
on September 24, 2026
Posted by: LaundryQueengotaLemonGE
This was the best washing machine I have ever used! Stain removal, water efficiency, ran quiet, fast cycle time, clean cloths. Heavy duty, could put King Comforters in there. Purchased in 2007 and ran great for 20 years until door locked. Need a washer immediately and made the mistake of buying a GE top load that was a lemon. Now after 7 service visits in 6 months, look for this GFWH1400DOWW model to replace
I would recommend this to a friend!

Response from geappliances.comBy Jonathon, GE_Appliances, April 29, 2025
We want to help out with your door locking and getting stuck. We'd recommend trying an electronic reset, which can be done by removing the power cord for 2-3 minutes.

If you are still experiencing issues, we suggest scheduling service. You can do so by calling 1-800-432-2737 or by visiting this link: https://www.geappliances.com/ge/service-and-support/service.htm

I love the low water usage !!!
on January 25, 2020
Posted by: derpy
from enumclaw,wa
I knew the water usage would be lower compared to my older top loader. That machine took 45 gallons to wash and then 45 gallons to rinse. Unscientifically used 5 gallon buckets to determine this. I found this washer online used and took a chance. Previous owner say he had no problems with it, he was upgrading to newer appliances. Unfortunately I did not realize how much his dog shed, until I began to clean out the door gasket and the little drain. Anyhow, today 1/25/2020 I connected 3 drain hoses to the washer, put the end into the tub and after the wash of 2 jeans, several underwear, one coat all on cold cycle, I measured a total of 14 gallons used.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Lasted 4 years
on December 29, 2017

Some bolts rusted after only 4 years and damaged the tub. Now it leaks water every time it's used. The repair cost is more than the washer. For the price, I expected at least an average life span. It didn't even make it halfway.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Piece of junk
on October 23, 2017
Posted by: REBJ
from Chattanooga, TN, United States
Bought it four years ago. Two years into use mysterious grease looking stains started to appear on clothes. Turns out the ball bearing were leaking oil. Also fixing this will involved replacing the whole drum. Two days ago the motor control board got burnt. To replace it will cost as much as the machine.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Tub bearing failure
on March 14, 2017
Posted by: GESUCKER
from Houston, Texas, United States
Whatever happen to quality and why would GE no longer supply bearings and seal ONLY.You have to buy complete rear tub assy. If the bearing goes out you are better off getting a new washer. This machine is built as throw away machine.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
