Really? That seems crazy. I'm familiar with KMs BD & DD, & '63 Frigidaire. No GE machines. I don't think I missed much. Wash on. | ||

Truth
Unlike other brands, the outer tub of the GE was bolted to the cabinet. In fact, the top of the washer doubled as the top of the outer tub. So instead of the inner and outer tub riding on the suspension, only the inner tub did. This left a lot of room on the side and bottom for lots and lots of extra water, and why they had that funky, huge tub seal between the outer tub and the transmission to accommodate the movement and balancing of the inner tub during spin.

I disagree .. with the water hog misconception I filled my large capacity Ge filter flo or hotpoint rim flo to the top highest level then I drained it into a 90’s direct drive filling it only to the medium level totally drained out .. try it you’ll see. Look at the older 60’s models washers with the constant OVERFLOW RINSING ALL YOUR FABRIC SOFTNER AWAY!! Those were the water wasters !!!
