This Ought to help GE better compete with the other front loaders. Looks really sharp. P.S. Could I get you to check my "For the Kids" thread again? |

I don't think GE has a clue on being different in the looks of their front loaders! It looks like a combo between Frigidaire, Kitchenaid and LG thrown into one!?! This is one area they should take a step back and say, "If we build it like the other's, would they buy?" I don't think so, so they should stick to stoves and ranges! Stoves and Ranges! (Shaking my head side to side):-(( |

Thanks for hunting down and sharing the info on the new GE, Launderess! As with so many manufacturers, they've managed to stretch 9 cycles into an advertised 26. Must be something they learned Frigidaire's Exaggeration School. My Frigidaire 3-cycle front loader is advertised to have something like 14 cycles.... |

The prices we at HD were given were $799 on the washer and $699 on the dryer.I just wish that GE would get off their buts and release them already.They claim to be holding back untill enough are in production so that once they release them,there will be enough to go around keeping the factories from swelling and going into overtime.

Anymore when it comes to appliances these days, so am waiting for the other shoe to drop before passing judgement. While it may be trun GE is able to bring a uber-sized, multi-featured front loader to market for under $800, am willing to be there is quite a bit of plastic in this machine and not just the outer wash drum. Am also willing to bet things such as motherboards/control circuts are not top drawer either. As for design, the GE washer looks like the new Kenmore front loader or the He2, that is to say like several other front loaders already on the American market. For all the effort GE is putting into this washer/dryer, couldn't they spend a few pennies more on a totally "new" design? All things being equal, still think the SQ front loaders are probably better deals for overall "last the duration" construction. GE may have moved up the rankings in CR, but I for one haven't forgotten some of the dreadful appliances including washing machines they have only recently put out. Launderess |
