I wonder if they produce this thing in a stacking unit. We rented a beach condo back in February that had a stacked GE pair and I thought the washer was broken because it sounded like the one in the clip. I think it did a normal fill, though. I'm betting it was broken. It's a GE after all. The pretty much come that way from the factory. |

Indeed, you can see the rollover. Whatch at the beginning of the vid the greenish towel with the label at the 1-3 o' clock position. You can see the label dissapear. |

if all of these energy saving appliances are actually harder on the planet that the appliances of yesteryear??
They used a lot of energy and water, but lasted decades and rarely had to be replaced.... OR Today's types of washers which will end up in a landfill in probably less than five years. I think it would be cool to know what's ultimately more eco friendly - - A water hog washer and diswasher/ high energy hog refridgerator that lasts 30 years OR - Having a high turnover rate for modern appliances. Build them....use them five years, dump them, get another one, rinse- repeat. |

While not my favorite washer it certainly looks like it is cleaning very well to me, the clothing is turning over in a very concentrated solution of detergent and the towels are getting a good physical scrubbing. I know of no better way to get really dirty items clean, ever see anyone use a Wash-board? the clothing certainly were not immersed in water during the scrubbing process.
On Marks video { Lighted Controls } showing his new SQ TL washer that is very gently [ and slowly ] turning over a load of clothing, no real cleaning is taking place, it is more of a power-soak. In a regular TL washer you would have to use at least 6 TIMES as much detergent as you would need in a low water use TL or FL washer and at that rate you would need at least a 2nd deep rinse to rinse as well as the Hi Efficiency washer and that alone would use more water than the complete cycle in the newer more efficient washer. |
