The trash compactor is ok
on December 7, 2021
Posted by: Bullgaz
It's an average compactor. It doesn't hold down the trash, like the Kitchen Aid we had before the GE. It's easier to operate than the Kitchen Aid. Its operation squashes the trash and then returns to the start position. The Kitchen Aid did that also. However, it had a hold position, that would compact the trash better. For 1,049 bucks, all I can say is, it's average.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Packed but not

Nice compactor. However, I would have given 5 stars if there was a way to pack down the trash, keep it packed down for a few minutes, then release it. The trash goes down but it does’ t pack tight.

Hi there, we're pleased to know you like your compactor, but we're sorry it's not keeping trash compacted as tight as you'd like. We can imagine how this would be annoying, so this is certainly something we'll be happy to bring up with our design team for them to look into. We appreciate you reaching out and we're wishing you the best.

All OK, but lacks a hand opening Handle
on December 19, 2021

Unlike my KitchenAid compactor, this GE compactor doesn't have a drawer pull handle. You can only open it with the foot release. I like the convience a a foot opening door, but perhaps a third of the times I opened my previous 3 KitchenAid compactors was with my hand. Otherwise, it does the job a compactor should do.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hey there, and thanks for submitting your feedback about this compactor. We hate to hear you are unhappy with the lack of a drawer pull handle, and regret any inconvenience this may have caused. This model was designed with a toe pedal drawer to make it easy to open and load, but we will certainly let our Design team know you would have liked the option of a drawer pull handle; we value your insights, as we always like to know what our consumers think of our models for future development.

We are glad the compactor is working well for you otherwise, and are happy to assist with any other questions or concerns you may have. Wishing you all the best! -Sarah@GEA

I bought 5 GE Cafe appliances. The Smart stove WiFi module was dead on arrival.
The compactor up and down switch failed the first day.
Awaiting replacement parts delivery.

Hello there, we couldn't be more sorry to hear your new stove's WiFi module never worked. We can't even imagine how aggravating this was for you considering we'd never expect this for our consumers. With that said, we're pleased to see you're awaiting replacement parts. We're confident this will get taken care of so that you no longer have to worry.

We couldn't be happier to have you in our Cafe Appliances family and we're wishing you the absolute best. Please message us on social media at any time if you have any other questions or concerns.

Great Installer!
on December 31, 2021
Posted by: Randeleigh

The 5 star rating goes to Jourdyn with Precision Appliance Installation who did a fantastic job installing my trash compactor. While here, he took the initiative to resolve a poor installation problem with drainage with my new Maytag dishwasher caused by another installation company. Both appliances work great now. Thank you so much Jourdyn you Rock!!
