Saves energy by not completely drying.

Jdcorreia 3/8/2026

Incomplete drying when using sensors even when "more dry" is selected. Broken door switch after just 20 months of service due to cheap plastic component

Dryer has not worked since day 1

megan rogers 3/28/2025

I bought this washer & dryer March of 2024.  I have been calling for repairs since April 2024.   The washer is so loud the we can not do laundry after 7pm at night.  It shakes the whole house.  When the repair man Jeff has been out (3 times) he continues to say it is "normal".  Jeff says "its off balance" The washer door does not close smoothly. The dryer does not dry the clothes in a time efficient manor.  I have to use the sanitize cycle at least once.  This make the laundry take 240-400 minutes to dry.  I never see steam outside of the house at the vent.  I live in Massachusetts, in the winter I should see steam.  This is the third dryer I have had at this house and the previous two had steam outside of the vent. When you open the dryer mid-cycle the clothes are just warm, not hot.   Jeff has been out 3 times to fix this.  The first time Jeff said the dryer vent was clogged.  We had it cleaned.  Dryer still would not dry.  On the most recent visit Jeff put in all new thermostats.  Dryer still will not dry. The door also broke on the dryer.  the tinted plastic would not snap in.  The door had to be replaced. I have 5 kids and 3 dogs.  I do a lot of laundry.  I purposely did not go to a big box store to purchase these appliances, I wanted to support a locally owned business.  I was told this set would wash/dry a king size comforter easily. On my last call with this repair service I asked to have a repair man other than Jeff. He always seemed annoyed to be at my house and had not fixed either machine. Sure enough Jeff showed up again, annoyed as usual. EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING Megan Rogers East Falmouth, MA 02536

Never Completely Dries, always damp clothes/towels

RF52 2/5/2025

This dryer has been a disappointment since the day we purchased it. Quite simply, it does not dry most of anything that we put in it. We've grown accustomed to damp towels, and hanging them up after they've been drying for 90 minutes. A load of normal clothing takes about 100 minutes, and there's still dampness. Huge mistake.

Good Dryer but Capacity NOT as Large as Expected

PJS in SY 6/22/2024

This is a good basic dryer that I was assured could easily dry a king size comforter. This is only the case if you remove it every 15 to 20 minutes and flip it around for the next 2 to 3 hours. The medium temperature is much lower than my previous model, but that is OK™€" I prefer it that way. My only complaints thus far™€" the volume control (which has graduated sound settings) for the cycle end notification is not loud enough and when I have used the steam cycle, a weird residue is left in the drum. This was not the case with my Samsung steam dryer so I™€™m not sure what the deal is because it™€™s the same hard water I™€™ve always had. The machine should have a filter to prevent this. I avoid using the steam function because I don™€™t want to wipe the drum out every time I use it. No backflips but no other significant complaints either.

Unreliable product

Blazer23 6/14/2024

This is a horrible product it has been unusable for a total of 6 months out of the 12 months I have had it. Plus the repair company GE uses in my area is unreliable to get the repairs made. GE advertises they are so reliable. Not the case. Plus the company does not seem to care they are treating customers as if it doe not matter the product is not working.

Not good

Iroquois 5/15/2024

We bought the dryer brand new in February and by May it stopped producing heat. We had to wait a week for service. The tech came out and replaced the igniter but that wasn™€™t the issue so they had to order several more parts and had to wait another week for our appointment but the parts hadn™€™t come in so we are going on week 3 of no dryer and using a clothes line and waiting from 1-5 pm for someone to show up today

MAM14 4/5/2024

Very pleased with this dryer so far. WiFi connect is convenient™€¦like that it can send notifications about time remaining etc. Like the features offered. Easy to use. Only drawback is since we had to stack the washer and dryer it is difficult to see the control panel and to use controls without a footstool. When we looked at the units at Lowe™€™s we thought we purchased the washer that allowed the dryer to be controlled via the washer controls BUT apparently we ordered the wrong washer. Other than that the dryer is top notch!

Fabulous Features

4941 3/28/2024

Fabulous Features! I never thought I would be so excited about having a new dryer and washer™€¦ however, I love my pair of sapphire GE W&D. They are The Best. I live in a 2 story house and when I™€™m upstairs doing something else, and have forgotten I have something in the washer and/or the dryer, the app on my phone lets me know the washer and /or dryer is about to stop. I also love that I can empty a bottle of laundry detergent into it, and it will dispense the correct amount into the tub as needed. I can also operate them from the app when I am away from home! Priceless!

OK equipment - Bad Installation Experience

AK1322 3/17/2024

Not happy with the installation experience. I was charged for a propane conversion. The 3rd party installation company did not have the propane conversion kit which was included in the purchase so I provided one. Still no Installer had to come back to properly fit the vent and level both washer and dryer. The dryer door needed to be reversed (simple task). After reinstall the latch cover plate could not ne flush mounted. Dryer top was removed to do the propane conversion, had ro come out to tighten the screws.
