It's very noisy.  It's 1-1/2 inches taller than my previous GE Profile that I bought 16 years ago so it doesn't exactly fit under the cabinets above it.  I cannot open the lid of the washer all the way open.  It will stay open if I want it to stay open.  It's just an inch too high.  The washer is deeper than my last one.  It's good that I'm tall and can reach inside the bottom of it.  I have a friend that is shopping for a new washer and had her come to see my new washer.  She's shorter than I am and cannot reach the bottom of it to get clothes out.
