          Sapphire blue set
          First of all this washer and dryer set in sapphire blue is beautiful If You can say that about laundry. We purchased the 4.8 washer and the 7.8 dryer I put my King size comforter in and there is still so much room left that I know everything will get clean. The dryer is huge I was able to fit 3 large bath towels 2 blue jeans a few socks and tshirts and still so much room left.

                  Problem
                  It's a good dryer but the 2 silver metal strips on the inside door has ruined some of my clothes. It catches anything with strings and holds it and twist it up.

                  We'd like to assist you with your dryer. As clothes tumble, they make contact with several components around the door; however, clothes should not get caught on the lint filter, sensor rods, or under the edge of the drum. If this is occurring, you may see tears, holes, or snags in the items being dried, or you may see black marks on cuffs, collars, etc. If you are experiencing these symptoms, we recommend service. Please schedule a service appointment with a GE Appliances technician by calling 1-800-432-2737 or schedule online at https://www.geappliances.com/ge/service-and-support/service.htm
                    Amazing value and amazing features...........
                    Love the features on this dryer, its beyond quiet and you can see and feel the quality. We looked at several other brands and this one stood out to us and out needs. Its a great addition to our GE Kitchen appliances we did a year ago.

                      Quality control issues
                      Not as solid as the last model. Overall does a good job with the drying cycles, but too many issues with quality. This is our third dryer in this series in 2 years.

                      We only want the best from our appliances, and it’s unexpected to hear that your new dryer doesn’t seem as solid as your previous model. We’re constantly working to make our products better, and we’ll be sure to forward your feedback to our design team so we can continue to improve.
                        DO NOT PURCHASE FROM HOME DEPOT
                        Purchased this dryer from Home Depot in February 2024 and it is now August 2024. It has not worked for two months. The Home Depot installer did not connect the power cord correctly during installation. This caused a short in the power cord almost starting a fire! GE repair has been out twice trying to find the issue and today we learned of the potential fire hazard. Home Depot refuses to replace they dryer or take responsibility for their installation. DO NOT PURCHASE FROM HOME DEPOT!

                              Doesn't dry
                              Dryer doesn't dry any type of load completely. I've tried different settings and it still takes 2-3 times to dry

                                Love my dryer. It reminds me to check filter. Although I do check it after each load. Plus it’s quiet and very efficient.

                                          Nice dryer. I like the feature that alerts you when the clothes are finished. Eventhough the APP says you can extend the cycle for wrinkle free, it doesn't allow you to di it from the APP. The clothes dry mostly but not completely on cotton. I have to run the cycle again.

                                                  I've only had this washer for about a month now, but as of now, I absolutely love it! Easy to use for quick start and connecting to the app. Looking forward to having a moment to learn more about it's features and how to check the hair trap/drain at the bottom front area that I was advised about!

                                                      I've had my new washer and dryer for a couple of weeks now, and I love them. I actually enjoy doing laundry now. I love so many things about the washer like the size of the tub, the microban door seal, the vent feature for drying the tub. The dryer is great, too. A big load of towels is fully dry within 30 minutes.
