I too have a GE front load washer, and while I agree with all the
positives mentioned in this thread, I do have one negative - it takes
60 minutes to do a load, and I seem to remember that at the laundromat,
the top loader Maytag, would take only 30 minutes.

Shrug. It usually takes an hour to dry a load. The washer and
dryer cycles match well. No real reason to have things waiting
in the washer for the dryer to finish. You only lose the 30 minutes
(actually, my top-loader take 40-45 minutes for a load, anyway)
on the first load. Then you're pipelining until everything is done.

Of course, this assumes you do the bulk of your laundry all on one day.

Frankly, I don't care very much about how long it takes to do a load.
I'm not sitting there watching it spin; I'm off doing other things.
