Is always unbalanced

This washer seems to always be unbalanced!! And if it’s unbalanced it will fill back up with water to try and balance. It will do it a couple of times if you don’t catch it. Wastes so much water and has been nothing but a pain since we bought it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello- We are sorry to hear you're having this experience with your washer getting out of balance. We can understand how frustrating this would be for you and want to help! All GE Appliances washer tubs move freely within our exclusive auto balance suspension system. It is a rod and spring floating suspension, designed to withstand extensive out of balance situations without the need for an "out of balance" switch.
During an out of balance load, the basket is allowed to "float" forward and backward, side to side, and up and down, yet it never touches the floor nor is it even connected to the floor. As a result, the clothes basket can move freely, and this is normal. Note: The more the legs are extended, the shakier the washer will be during operation.
We have some Anti-Vibration Pads that may help with this issue. Please take a look at the following link:
Love this washer! It’s super deep, so that I can wash quilts & blankets. Also. I love the feature of 75 ozs of liquid detergent that can be poured in, and the machine uses what it needs; and notifies when it needs refilling. Lots of cycles to choose from, and makes a nice musical sound when the wash cycle is complete that sounds like “Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind”.
Since Aug. 2021 Covid-19 pandemic this GE wash machine has been running 5-7 times a day very consistent and well manufactured and engineered! Regards, -Eddie
