We picked this washer after doing a lot of research online. Now that we have it, I'm finding it annoying to manage settings. There are some sensor settings and some traditional settings from which you can choose options such as time, heat, dryness, and temperature. If you use a sensor setting, then some of those options aren't available, which would be okay if they let you know which selections are sensored! So now we're going through every single setting to determine which options we have and hopefully figure it out from there. I guess after that, we can determine which loads need which settings. Currently, when we use sensor settings, we have no idea if the clothes will be dry or not when finished. Sometimes they are and other times they're wet or damp. What is the point of a sensor, if it doesn't continue until it senses dryness? Also, why doesn't GE let you know in the directions which settings have a sensor and what you can opt in and out of in that setting? This seems more complicated than it needs to be.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We want to help out with some of the settings and cycle selections. We recommend checking out pages 7 through 8 in the user manual for descriptions of the cycles and settings: https://products-salsify.geappliances.com/image/upload/s--twdH2OD5--/80509adbcc4074029478592026bc8b47388dd5a6.pdf?
Also, we are going to pass your comments about the controls over to our product team. That way we can look for potential improvements for our models going forward.
So far so good! It's been installed and a part of our family now for the last 8 months. I did a lot of research and looking at reviews before I committed. Again, so far so good.
Had it for a month and absolutely love it. They prepare you for a different sound but it hasn’t been a bother to my family at all. We weren’t sure about having a washer with an agitator but it has grown us.
