Thank you for this review. I just bought the exact one today and when I did my first wash I wasn't sure if it's supposed to make that DUCK SOUND or not. Very weird!!. Jumped on TH-cam to see videos of the same washer/dryer and here I am, laughing and loving your review. Thank you very much, now I know I'm doing working it right.
i post a ton of videos to educate and help the world. thanks for your reply
Best video review for this GE Laundry Center I have watched!! Wanted to make sure my unit is performing as designed and played this video during a wash cycle and it was in sync with the noises, click-clacks, etc. Thanks for your informative video. I am confident my unit is noisy but working properly.
thank you 73
I bought this recently and it's coming in next week - I'm dreading the duck sounds but I'm still excited to get my very first laundry machine! No need for quarters anymore, haha. Thanks so much for this super detailed review, it made me feel more confident in my purchase. 😊
all new machines make these annoying sounds just like ALL new refrigerators makes lots of noises at night. This machine is loud but this thing holds so much. I can wash a lot of towels and a blanket and still have room for a few tshirts. I just clsoe the door and ignore the noise. I am very happy that I bought this
You'll have ducks smashing into your windows. This is obscenely loud. Completely ridiculous. It's not 1961.
Thanks for this review! I purchased this unit and was wondering about the rinse cycle. You explained everything and provided some comic relief. 😂 👍
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much man. Fixing this type of washer while watching this video to see how it’s supposed to work is so helpful
It took me awhile to get use to the different noises this machine makes. I def thought it was broken when I used it the first few times. I hate the slow agitation sound. I'm so used to hearing the fast agitator swishing back and forth. I'm glad my washer is in a closet on my patio. I'd go nuts if I had to listen to inside of my apt. It def has the longest spin cycle ever!
this is how all the machines are now... not sure how the front load is
Nice set. One thing, Cottons, Easy Care, and Delicates are sensor cycles and that’s why the timer progresses from more dry to optimum to less dry.
I know you posted this 3 years ago, but im forever grateful!! Just bought it and thought it was broken because of the duck noises 😂this video definitely helped to calm my nerves
Glad I could help!
A 5.9 cubic foot dryer capacity is on the smaller side for a dryer... most stand alone dryers are at least 7.0 cubic feet or more. Second point is to put the washer on the fabric softener setting if you want it to fill with water for a deep rinse... otherwise it just spray rinses.
5.9 is standard for a unitized model. This isn't anywhere near the capacity of its larger counterparts. This is for small spaces after all. Geeesh.....
So glad you posted this! The duck sound made us think something was wrong.
quack quack
Just bought one of these a couple weeks ago. I though the agitation cycle sounded like it was saying "The grass is growing" over and over again.
😂😂😂 love your review. Thanks now I know the duck sounds are normal. I definitely wasn't expecting that!
ok so when the timer (for the dryer) was going back it runs on a timer system like old timers it will creep back untell it has reached off in witch it will turn off
I purchased this unit a month ago and am pleased with the results. Although the wash basket is huge, it's not good to fill it up with clothes because the water doesn't fill up to the top edge, like older machines do. It'll fill maybe 2/3 of the way with water, max. I've learned to select the "Bulky" cycle always because it gives the most water and the clothes get completed clean.
mine fills to the top,,, if you have the settings right
@@LEARNINGCHORDS how do you make the settings fill to the top?
What are the settings?
@chnalvr how's the water levels I hear they don't put enough water to wash clothes
Great review love your personality
THANKU
Hi! Thank you for uploading and sharing the video! I see that this video was uploaded 2 yrs ago. How is the machine holding up? Any issues or repair work that had to be done during the last 2 yrs? I'm trying to decide between this and the Frigidaire top load washer dryer combo.
I am happy--- I hate the link trap but that is ok. The machine is fabulous. I got my money's worth. very happy
Review was appreciated, wanted to make sure the noise during wash was normal and it appears to be.
YES
Same experience here on the weird duck quack wash
Thanks for posting this video. We just started same model first time and thought we bought a dud, slow noisy duck sound
all of them are noisy now... they are all different than the old models which did the agitation differently
OMG YOUR REVIEW MADE MY DAY. I WAS LOL 😂 WHEN YOU MENTIONED THE 🐕 😂 MY DOG WAS GOING CRAZY! TRYING TO CATCH A DUCK THAT DOES NOT EXIST 😂😂😂😂
quack :)
Before I watch the rest of this I just got the exact same Stackable one thing I did notice a couple of things I love how fast it loads up on the start secondly I love how whisper quiet when it goes in the spin cycle the spin cycle however it took for me I think I think 15 to 20 mins the full Spincycle that’s crazy What in the end I pulled out my clothes and they were like bone dry which was great it makes it makes it a lot easier to throw it in the dryer. So yeah I do a normal load tap cold water is what I do I don’t do any fabric softener nothing else but that surprised me though how long the spin cycle took the spin cycle took longer than the rest of the load to do that was the longest part of the load for anyone that buys this they might have a different opinion and their valid do it but this is just my experience I just got it yesterday and I’m just using it today so I just started using my new one today so just letting everybody know how it is you can comment below if you have the same issue I have with the long spin cycle very long spin cycle the longest I’ve ever seen in my entire life that’s crazy but it did the job so that’s all that matters
Can u plug the washer into the sink? I don't have washer input in my apt 😣
if you do a full load it better be a large huge sink for all the water that will come out fast.... make sure it wont plug your sink. also for water in it has a hot and a cold water hose. you will need to connect them to a pipe that allows you to connect it to the sink faucet... be careful!
The agitator uses a reversing motor instead of a geared transmission. Maybe the lint is from the dog blanket. Cute dog.
Your review eliminated my worries about the duck sound... hahaha. Thanks.
Glad to help
How would I convert this from 240v to 120v?
Thanks for the video! We thought there was something wrong with our machine... we are used to a much faster agitation!🤷♀️
i want you to have faster agitation
@@LEARNINGCHORDS 🤣😂
the sounds while it was filling up is the washer sensing the load
Did you ever figure out why the lint was getting all over the clothes?
Do you recommend this stackable washer dryer? It doesn't sound so good. I'm trying to find one that works well and is energy efficient. I'm not getting a clear picture.
Thanks!
they only sell a couple models with this style.. i love the machine... I think only a few companies make this format... the washer is good and the dryer is good. I have had it a few years and it works well.. it is compact enough to fit in half the closet and I am happy-- as for energy....everything sold these days is energy efficent
Is the slow burst fill in the begining and noises normal after all? Have you had any issue with this unit?
i just washed a LOADDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD and yes this is normal on all new washers
I actually watched this because I just got one and that duck quack sound was so weird to me. Wanted to know it was normal. Better than the old one I had where the transmission was going and it squeaked so bad. But weird.
all the new machines make the same odd annoying sounds.. they are loud and lots of gears and noise.. the only machines were simple
We just got one and I don’t know. It doesn’t fill very much, it doesn’t agitate very much and sometimes I open it and there is No water in it. It never has that lots of water going in sound. Are you still using yours?
you need to stop using the smart fill setting and set the machine for full load. then it will fill all the way.. if you let the smart setting work it will only fill what it really needs..
LEARNINGCHORDS ok. I’ll try that. Thank you.
Mine is doing the same thing other than the Duck sound. GE tech says this is Normal / I’ve worked Laundromats before and never have l seen this. I don’t understand why it Pauses then Starts then pauses then starts in the wash cycle.
all new machines do this... the new transmission and gears... amazing washer..
I just got this machine 3days ago,and I found the dryer didn’t work very well.Only about 20 pieces clothes ,the dryer need 2hours to make them dry.I need to switch to more dry 2 times.This is ridiculous. Is it normal?
if a dryer is working you will feel heat on clothes.... i put in a full load of towels and clothes and it will take about an hour on a gas dryer....2 hours is not normal
we purchased this a few weeks ago and noticed right away the dryer is not working properly and now the machine is not spinning!
Your video has been so helpful! I just had this unit installed by Lowe's today and when I heard it washing, I was like woah.....but the spin cycle is what worried me. After 5 minutes, I was worried something was off *because that already seemed long to me* and was also afraid my downstairs neighbor could hear it. But now I know that it is normal for it to spin a long time. About 20 minutes?
the spinning takes forever.. this is how the new machines work... the old machines would spin and the clothes were very damp... these new machines spin forever and if you listen, then are draining out water... notice at the end,,, it does one final spin and you hear more water come out and then it shuts off... at least the dryer doesn't run as long... the clothes come out of the machine wet but not soaked..... i have no regrets...
@@LEARNINGCHORDS Thanks for this! I was so worried that I turned it off after 5 minutes of spinning and made a tech appointment because I seriously thought something was wrong. Phew, I'm very relieved now!
all is good.. all the new machines are the same... the same transmission and build.. they all work the same.. they are loud and annoying but they clean clothes and they work... they cost a fortune but you end up keeping it for a long time and they do what they are supposed to...I know people that have spend 2 or 3 times this for a top of the line fancy machine and all they have are repair bills... this thing is awesome....there are 2 sizes and 2 companies make them.. probably only ONE FACTORY in CHINA making all 4 of them,, but they work and they sell a lot of them and they are wonderful... take care sox
I just bought mine and i got the same duck in side my washer it feels like it don't got no power i guess this is the way it works.
this is how it works
At the 28 minute mark when you’re moving the washer is there a sloshing sound like there’s water or some liquid underneath it?
probably the metal dryer vent hosing
The washer has a water balancing ring.
How's your machine doing now? Can you fit a full size blanket in it? or A full size padded mattress cover? I'm contemplating buying one. It would be great to not have to cart certain things to the laundromat. Right now I have a black and decker portable, 1.7cu. ft. and really don't like the portable dryers because they aren't 220, so less efficient, I'd think. Did you have to buy the cords, hoses, etc separately?
i moved but was able to get a queen size blanket in there and more
@@LEARNINGCHORDS Thanks
I hate mine. And sadly im rwnting so i cant replace it. The washer belt broke after 1 use and it dosent spin anymore. And the really sad thing is i cant fix it myself because it would void the warrenty. It wont be fixed until October 7th at the earliest. Thank god the dryer still works and the laundromat has a $2 per load washer
so it had a bad belt.. this stuff happens.. hang in there
There's white cottons in the wash.
Shedding lint on the colors.
You can easily stop that by really sperating your laundry.
Doing mixed laundry to save time is REALLY A BAD CHOICE.
Sorry but doing loads with by cheating and looking at fabrics that also sheds lint there are fabrics and mixed fibers that is a magnet called lint takers. That's basically it seems from those white cotton socks. Also shake garments when putting in the dryer helps and reduces wrinkles. The start and wind up noise is the motor spinning to sense the load and adapt the water level from that spinning measure sequence.
The new sounds are from the new motor ..and gear box. Winny sounding.
The Agitator is a single one piece design with 4 low rounded vanes creates great left to right water currents that are strong. The 2 paddles with holes adds washing action which splashes water and over the clothes in high water levels.
And the holes in those slates water goes thru them and detergent insuring better wash quality up the top of the agitator.
The QUICK MID WAY SHORT STROKES IS TO REDUCE WEAR ON FABRICS !
This might happen in some settings more or less depending on the program.
For instance the( Delicate ) cycle uses the pulsd quick stroking action for less wear and hence delicate action for sweaters ..nice expensive polo shirts..blouses..better made fabrics. With Woolite ®️. Helps to preserve those garments. You also can bypass the lid switch on the left of the lid. Where the lid look by unscrewing the piece and set it on the hole there. I HATE being locked out my washer. If there's no young toddlers ..this should be a given .
Or manufacturers please give all Americans to have a choice of window lids with no steam blocking veiwes PLEASE. BULKY ITEMS cycle ARE FOR light compfiters .. blankets.. sleeping bags. Jackets that may have properties of bubbling up . I would never leave this CYCLE checking on large items can create bubbles in these items more or less ... stopping and turning the fabric over or pressing out air helps those items as well a better clean. Also Bulky cycle fills up and slows spinning down some to prevent banging or puffy items that may run up top the service ring.
I believe GE SPIN CYCLE AT THE end is 800 RPM's . Giving better extraction then previous 620 to 640 AMERICAN'S top load washers where given.
If your doing the efficient defaulted water spray rinsing which leaves more lint in clothing the do so . Just be careful of over using detergent 4 to 3 spray rinses are not enuff. Fabric softener rinsing gives full water in the basket which chases lint away and better detergent flushing. Even if you don't use softener which is recommended to safe textiles from wearing but also gives clean rinses . Depending on some brands . Or Downy free ...or white vinegar gives great rinsing and softning attributes.
GE appliances are made from
HAIER COMPANY !
From the greed and less enthusiasm from OUR AMERICAN'S ENGINEERS .
Which GE of yesteryears talented and leadership. Is know longer.
Hopefully we could get back to that.
But not betting on it.
As GE HAS SOLD THERE ENTIRE APPLIANCE DIVISION TO ANOTHER COUNTRY .
😏😬🙄
But I do see remnants of the sound and some old traits in the product and I'll give Haier thumbs up on those deeper Appliance enthusiasts that can spot some of those GE traits.
Hope this helps and is truly understood.
I have been in to washers as a child .
I'm still one with all washers.
It's water art and art of laundering as all subjects matters have there on art .
Unfortunately we don't see as such.
Through it in ..
Fast as possible ...
Cheat on learning fabrics..
Meaning mixed loads of colors and with washing it all at once to safe time.
People THERE'S NO FAST TIME IN TEXTILES DONE RIGHT.
IT takes time.
And use your cycles .
Not just one cycle for everything.
Lol. Peace ✨🧢
THANK YOU DOCTOR WASHER
Thanks for the advice, I read every word twice. I planned on throwing our dirty clothes in the washer as they got dirty and then starting it up, now I plan to throw them in a separator basket so I'm not washing jeans with shirts with underwear with whites anymore 😅
Since you are an expert on this machine, maybe you can tell me why I had only 5 towels to wash and washed them twice using 3X the amount of detergent necessary, rinsed 4X, and they are still dirty! My old Kenmore stack, which was hauled away yesterday when this new unit was delivered would have gotten those towels spotlessly clean in one wash. It seems that the agitation is not that strong. The items just move from side to side because the tub itself does not turn and only the agitator moves and not all that that well. Please advise if I got a lemon. I’m going to use your trick to keep the lid open so that I can watch the strength of agitation in the different cycles. Any help you can give me regarding how to use this unit more effectively would be much appreciated and thank you for your very informative comment, which I screen shot to save! 🥰🥰🥰 I HATE THIS NEW MACHINE! I want my old one back!
sammy you need to calm down.. this is how they make machines now.... they are all the same.. so calm down. you washed 5 towels and filled a machine twice and felt the need to pour in all that detergent when the door is locked? you rinsed 4 times? ok you need to get some one to help you relax
@@LEARNINGCHORDS I used the suggestion of unscrewing the thing which locks the lid, and figured out that I also needed to use a magnet to get the washer to agitate with the lid open. Checked out all the different kinds of cycles. Did better today with dish towels. Will try small woven area rugs tomorrow. Figuring out how to get optimal clean out of this piece of crap machine that I just paid $1600 for at Costco. What I want is no longer made (old kind was no longer made after 2007 because of water saving requirements in CA that the rest of the US is stuck with) and my 20 year old Kenmore stack needed transmission replacement which cost $700-1200, but no repairman wanted to do it because it is such a huge job. They would have to take the whole engine apart. They all told me just to buy a new one, even though the new ones are not expected to last more than 6-7 years. So I just spent $$$ on a washer I don’t like and really didn’t want to buy … that gives me dirty towels after 2 washings. It was the only top loader where I could custom set water levels. No other choice. Don’t tell me to calm down.
I was like that with mine rn i just got it yesterday
so far i like it. noisy and huge and holds a lot of clothes-- the dry does get lint all over the place
I noticed my dryer making some noise for about 5 min. Anyone else? Also Is there a quick wash option?
normal wash takes an hour.. that is what i use
Lol, just bought this washer and my daughter and i started laughing because that sounds it makes at the beginning Rebi indeed us o if a horror movie 😂 we had a guy come out because of an unusually loud buzzing during drying. Although the day before they came with the new one, it stopped making the noise. So, the new one's in and I'm pretty sure the 'old new one' had a much quieter wash cycle.
One more thing I don’t understand on the left part of the washer it looks like a wire a Wi-Fi connector or an Internet connector I don’t understand that either if someone has that too if the guy in the video if you could respond that would be awesome if you know what that means you will be great help to me I just noticed that when I got it yesterday and I’ve been thinking and I’m like what is this so if anybody knows even if they got a call ge and have them figure it out fine by me I found that to be very weird So yeah you definitely had the exact same one I have especially now that I noticed the little Internet port on the left side of the washer I don’t understand why that’s just weird
It's for big brother to monitor your washing activities 😁
We just got this machine, how the hecK do we get it, or what setting do we choose to fill up with water , it seems it just fills with enough water to get the clothes wet, .. Low level!
everything in life is about the size of your LOAD.. if you have it on precise fill it will do what it wants to the level of clothes.. if you want control you change the know to small or large.. I have mind set to fill for a massive load and I never move the dial
I have the same problem. I bought it because my 18 year old one doesn't fit in my new house but I refuse to buy those digital ones.
stacked washer and dryer is not good to overload clothes , you have do it by parts
I bought mine today it’s a used one refurbished got it delivered today installed for $690. Curiosity brought me here when I started my first load😂 those duck sounds did not sound normal to me. It’s a long cycle that’s forshure. So does anyone know how long does the wash last to finished?
you probably know by now.. i moved and don't have it anymore but I think wash is 1 hour and dryer about 1 hour
@@LEARNINGCHORDS thanks for the feedback I think that’s what it was. Shure hope it’s a energy saver
Love your review I was dying laughing at both your sound effects and the washer LOL I was on the fence about this model and I'm not a fan of the duck sound so I'll pass.
i think most of the new machines do this. they are not like the old style we all loved
YES ITS NORMAL 😂
Can you operate both washer and dryer at the same time?
great question. I used to do that with my old machine. i am not sure if I have done that on this one. I think I have
Yes you can wash a load and dry a load at the same time.
They don't advice that in the manual, they say no.
i do it all the time. I also never read the manual... the only reason I can think is they are worried you would use too much current and blow the circuit breaker... I have a large enough breaker and most times I am washing another load while the first is in the dryer
I have one and they are really nice but really heavy mine ways almost 300 pounds it weighs more than my refrigerator.
yes they are heavy but unless you are lifting weights with them,,, their weight doesn't matter
What brand is your old stackable
not sure.. it is gone
Can you wash a comforter in this?
i was shocked but this thing handles a queen size one better than my mom's large top load machine
Did your old stackable had a buzzer
yes when the cycle was over it would let me know. this one doesn't
Never came so fast
It's the modern day motors they use in these things..
Someday are you ordering the buzzer for the dryer you just wait the dryer done
there is no buzzer to order
0:50 Lmfaoooo 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
yes
It's normal ge says
can anyone explain the phone jack on it??
someone mentioned it is to connect to the internet but I am not sure why
Okay I searched it appears it is a diagnostic port
thank u.. others on here asked about connecting their machine to wifi and said they had to buy another card to install... I have no idea
How big is your closet?
sarah you are the first to ask how big it is
Once the washer reaches the first drain, the cycle switches to rinse.
One final thing and this is a huge compliment the guy in the video sounds just like if you’ve ever seen the show before 90 days on TLC there is this guy name big Ed and he’s a single guy trying to find a girlfriend and he has a cute dog named Teddy and the dog looks just like the dog in the video I don’t know if it’s the same guy but if it is dude I enjoy watching the show I also watch the show with the pillow talk on TLC so I get the other cast members points of view of the show just wanted to throw that out there as a final thought do you know what that Internet E Internet port is or stands for means why is it there on the washer on the left side on the bottom left side if you can figure it out let me know cause I’m wondering that myself and if anyone else has the exact same washer that I have and he has and you notice that as well like I do could you tell me or tell the world what it means would love for the help thank you and have a good night
Fills up, ehhhhhhhh. Fills up, ehhhhhh
Fills up, ehhhhhhhh.
😂😂😂😂😂im dead🤣🤣☠️
The dryer knob is super weird! Seems defectivw
OK I watched another video exactly about this exact machine it was about a 10 minute video anyway the lady explained in the video because she has the same washer I do what that little port is she says it’s a GE connectivity sorry I guess she says that you can connect your GET your Internet or something and for some reason so yeah it’s a G connectivity Internet thing that’s what I was told her what she said
i read it requires additional wifi module
This guy is hilarious!!!!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
LOLOLOL!
I have the same identical combo and makes that damn kwack sound, sound like someone is squeezing the neck of a duck!
that is the gear system in all new machines
Lmao i just got this washer and it has the same sounds
yes they are noisy
where is the wifi connector?
this is a washing machine.. no wifi
🤣
On your router
Came here because my mother had the bright idea of loading my brand new stackable by turning on the washer FIRST with the lid open so she can presoak her clothes before shutting the lid therefore the "lid locked" sensor clicked off and now won't turn on to show it's locked while filling water and washing clothes. So I'm trying to figure out how to fix it.
dear norma what is your mom thinking!! no no no
Did you figure out what happened? We have a similar problem with our new one... I don't think the agitator is working.
My mom just did this 😂 I came home from work and she was like why isn't this working!! She would presoak with lid up on our old washer
Hold the start button to reset it and it will start over. That's how I got mine to work again. You really cannot leave the washer lid up while it filling, not on this model :/
What happen don’t clean the lint
what
Just what happens if I don’t clean the dryer lint
you need to clean it from the front lint screen.. if you don't it will start a fire or get all over your dried clothes
That is nice washer and dryer
Is this a he machine
yes
Thanks for making this but 🙄🙄🙄
Lol sounds more like another description of something.
Riiiiight 🤣🤣🤣
4" makes all the difference in the world lol
xoxox
🤣🤣🤣
:)
This thing sucks! DO KOT BUY IT!!!!
i use it all the time-- i love it
