Why do they say "tramatize"? I thought to tramatize is to injurously shake,ratttle and roll someone.Of course.the gawdiness of some of that stuff could do just that,LOL.

That would be traumatize (note the letter u) -- to inflict injury or distress.

I'm not figuing what GE means by tramatize.

Perhaps it should read "Dramatize..." and someone is having too much fun with Photoshop??

I got confused on that spelling too. I thought GE built in appliances might leave you with PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder)

It would be pretty traumatic to have that cool W/D combo, but no window to peer into!

I think they "misspelt" it

I dunno. The ad was obviously aimed at home builders, not consumers. Maybe "tra" was some kind of acronym?

But no matter how you slice it, it sure sounds stoopid!
