THE WASHER CLEANS THE CLOTHES, BUT WE HAVE ISSUES WITH THE WATER LEVEL CONTROLS AND AT TIMES THE SPIN CYCLE. WE HAVE THE LEAVE THE WATER LEVEL CONTROL ON THE MAX LEVEL TO GET SUFFICIENT WATER FOR A CYCLE.

We would like to help and provide some guidance. The Department of Energy (DOE) sets standards for Washer water usage. Over the years, the amount of allowable water usage has been reduced. With Washers using less water and energy, you will no longer see a wash basket full of water. Most Washers are now programmed with load sensing to adjust water levels based on the cycle and load size, so the amount of water used will vary. However, your model unit does allow you to manually add up to 26 gallons of water to your washer. More information about this can be found in your manual on page 8 at the link- https://products-salsify.geappliances.com/image/upload/s--esnlivKk--/o60hz6zrissnlkutq8qc.pdf.

So far I'm very satisfied with my new washer but I'm a little concerned that when I put bleach in the dispenser I saw leakage from the washer. Hopefully, this won't be a constant problem. Other than that it's doing everything i need it to do.
Great product for the price. Would give 5 stars except for the staring process. There are times when just pressing start is not enough. I have to press start twice, once to light up the instrument panel and a second time to start it. This us only happened when I am doing my loads back to back. Which is quite frequent when you wash for 5 ever day lol.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We're big fans of this washer, and we're glad to hear you're overall happy with the appliance! Among the other great features, we particularly like the status notification that allows you to effortlessly monitor your wash cycle using the notification display that lights to indicate what part of the cycle is ongoing.
Generally, pressing Start/Pause once will begin the cycle. More information about starting the washer is available on page 8 of the manual; that’s linked here: https://products-salsify.geappliances.com/image/upload/s--esnlivKk--/o60hz6zrissnlkutq8qc.pdf. We recommend disconnecting the washer from power for a couple of minutes before reconnecting, to reset it; this can often solve an issue.
If you continue to have this issue and think the washer isn't operating as designed, our Bodewell service team is available at 1-833-426-3393. They are open Monday – Friday, 8AM – 8PM ET, and an appointment can be scheduled online as well, at this link: https://www.bodewell.com/schedule-repair-service. A technician would be glad to examine the washer, if necessary.
