Im looking for a new top load washer and dont trust reviews of new models.
Below ge unit had good reviews when i bought it but i was very disappointed
with it within first 2-3 years.
i would really appreciate all your good and bad comments about washers
that are not discontinued you have used.
Not looking for gold plated status or commercial versions, just for
once a week household use.
These are my comments about my latest now RIP ...
GE Washer WHRE5550KWW... Mfr 2009
Biggest negatives have been high speed noisy spin. Lack of lint filter.
Pump flowrate is too high for drain pipe size. Whoever dreamed up their
agitator-free method did it by theory - it does not work in normal clothes.
Any one of these are reasons i would avoid this model.
Plus the fact that ge rep says 10 years is its expected life.


I don't know about these requirements, but I've always liked Speed Queen.

I just bought a dryer and found out that Whirlpool makes
Amana, Whirlpool, and Maytag.
My strong preference in washers is front-load and in my LG -
the lint filter is a farce - it gathers zero lint but the filter area
provides a "sump " for 2 or 3 cups of water to sit -
and turn stinky ! I have to manually drain it after every load !
... my old Frigidaire didn't have this "feature" and never
suffered any odor problems at all.
