Questions and Answers for GE 4.8 cu. ft. High-Efficiency White Top Load Washing Machine with FlexDispense and Sanitize with Oxi, ENERGY STAR

A:  Got to your local Home Depot and speak with a salesperson about that.

A:  The matching dryer is great as well

A:  This is the big problem with this washer. The clothes do.not get submerged or agitated, I find it does not clean well. I have changed soli to large and and certain settings you can use deep fill. I tried to return this washer in the first month but was unable to. I dont think it cleans the clothes well.

A:  Yes it is a piece of junk! It uses very little water unless you hit the DEEP fill button and you can't fill it more than 2/3.

A:  I have not had this happen to my machine and I have had mine about a year now as well. I will be great if you could make a post when you get this rectified as to why and how to fix. Sorry I can't help.

A:  Yes, it is electric.

A:  Of course it's electric. I don't know of any other kind.

A:  Well, we close the lid gently ourselves. We do not let it drop by itself. So, I cannot say Yes or No. Is the lid designed to close by itself?

A:  Not a slow soft lid.

A:  Not all cycles use/permit fabric softener. Read the instructions to confirm.

A:  You have to select the DEEP RINSE button for it to dispense the fabric softener.

A:  Dear confused- generally, it’s a time- related difference, “Max” being the longest time period for spinning the load. -Bob

A:  It refers to time.

A:  Curious- try holding the button down for a period of time to see if it varies the volume level. If this doesn’t produce the desired effect, it’s probably just a “sound/no sound” button- in other words- “on” or “off”. Good Luck! -Bob

A:  Hi Curious- Yes, as long as your washing machine is still set at the “Delicate” cycle- it should continue to spin at the lower speed- however, if the things you’re presently washing don’t adequately remove excess rinse water, then use a regular setting rinse/spin cycle to remove rinse water more thoroughly- don’t worry about stress/ stretching/damage to what you’re washing, it’s the agitation part of a wash cycle that could do that. -Bob

A:  Yes, and the amount of water it puts back in is miniscule. There is a "Drain and Spin" cycle.

A:  My experience when using the "Drain & Spin" cycle only, is that this machine always does a few quick bursts of water then does the draining & spinning. It doesn't "fill" the machine. This machine on the "bulky" cycle does add more water but generally this is a water saving machine and does not fill with water on most other cycles. Cleaning the washer cycle also adds more water but normal wash cycles only use small amounts of water.

A:  Mine does the same although it doesn't completely fill the barrel, only allows a small amount of water to be added then spins it all out.
