Hello to all seem in canada they are starting to realise the new ge model washer i wonder if this new model is reliable? and also what is the wash time of each cycle if we have to use the stain treat option and what is the water level when using deep fill and deep rinse?

I wonder what cycles it has and what sounds it makes during each process. |

Could there be some type of agreement with whirlpool here? They look somewhat familiar?

I've seen a lot of people complain about the "flimsy" baskets and how they bounce around in the cabinet. That's exactly what they are designed to do, instead of causing the whole machine to bounce around in your laundry room!
I'm all for vintage machines like anyone else, but don't criticize something that you haven't tried is all I'm saying. I love my Kenmore 28102 and it can match or out-clean any traditional top load machine. :-P |

One of the many benefits of upgrading for a mere $12/365 days (which is almost a year on average) is the ability to edit your posts and avoid looking silly. |

LOL! Yeah I know. Things are flimsy these days. But what can you do? I went with my friend to help her shop for appliances and we stopped at an actual appliance store. She needed a new washer and I showed her the Speed Queen models. She asked me "Why do they have old washers out here?" I said, this isn't old, it's brand new! She was like "Oh". People are attracted to flashy and new. They don't care how flimsy things feel. My neighbor has one so i need one too. That's what manufactures WANT people to think. We're a rare breed here and know good from bad. Unfortunately appliance manufacturers don't like us. LOL. Except Alliance of course :)

the biggest problem with appliances of today compared to the older models direct drive 1990 to ? since i do not know when the last direct drive topload was made and 1950s to direct drive era of top load washers most where made to last today is that when the warrenty is out or if a major repair is needed most appliance company will push us to buy a new set unless someone is good at repairing there old set take for exemple my 11 year old generation 1 duet frontload washer dryer set end of july we had to call in a tech because of a burnt sent in the dryer he inspected the dryer was only a major cleaning that was needed no parts needed replacement i know eventualy my mom and i will have to replace or washer dryer set. But when looking at newer model those leave lots of questions like what is there lifetime use are they good ect.

.....GRUMBLE GRUMBLE.....AND GET OFF MY LAWN!
Geez. Look, I sympathize, as an engineer, thing's aren't exactly made like they're used to.....but in a way they are. Sure, my parents have a 33 year old Maytag washer.....but the dryer sure didn't last that long. I don't see a whole lot "back in those days" washers or dishwashers in that many peoples' homes anymore. Yet, my parents' GE dishwasher from 2003 (one of those years that companies apparently made crap) lasted 12 dutiful years with daily use before conking out. Not too shabby in my book. And then....in one breath you guys rail on and on about the evil gubmint green meanies....but then chastize the products these companies design and sell in the FREE MARKET. You can't have it both ways. So which is it? Are people getting dumber? Maybe? In certain areas they do seem like it. Yet in every report you find, IQ and test scores incrementally improved over the decades. Maybe people are just getting smarter about different things. In another way, maybe these items we like and enjoy in this community, are COMODITIES today to the vast majority of folks. We've lived with washers and dishwashers for over 50 years. Their mere existance are no longer tech marvals. But the scientific improvements in conservation and fabric care can still be cutting edge. If you're sick of companies making crap, you know what it's going to take? Market pressure. Lawsuits. And from your lack of confidence in the consumer that you convey, that ain't happening. So the only next place for it to come from is government regulation to slap the companies around from swindling customers and making garbage. The fact that these machines work at all, and stand on their own, while still selling for the arguably, same prices as in 1970, today with inflation, is a miracle in itself. Am I telling you to shut up and give up? No, i'm saying, stop whining and do something about it. Write the companies. Write your congressman. Make angry tweets while hashtagging Whirlpool. There's things to do. It's just not easy steering an iceburg. |

Asko 18 years now, Mom's kitchenaid 21 years now, maytag 22 years now.we plan to repair repair repair until it can't be repaired anynore pardon my tuping...my ambien has kicked in. must enter the realm of dreamjog v gg |

why do you need to bump an old thread i made dating back from october 2015? if you truly went a qualaty washer then maybe you should consider the used refurbish market like for exemple this filter flo that of course would need a major restore and lots of love as well as a good cleanup

Unfortunately, this is something he does quite often, and it's breathtakingly annoying. Just do what I did; add him to the block list. |
