I love this washing machine. I bought it to replace one by a major competitor. My decision to buy this washer was based on my previous experience with other GE Profile appliances. And the fact that it was "Recommended" by Consumer Reports. The Control Panel is intuitive and easy to operate. The wash tub has plenty of capacity. It does a terrific job washing small, medium and large loads. Moreover, it does the job quietly. I'm very satisfied with this purchase and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a dependable washing machine.
