The soap dispenser DOES NOT OPEN during the cycle.  We realize it doesn't  open after the cycle is finished so we have to try everything over again.  We have gone thru nightmares with this problem and GE DOES NOT have the parts to fix it.  They are supposed to replace it for another machine as we speak.  Now they tell me the replacement is NOT available so they are offering me a different model.  NOT GOOD FOR GE.
