Product review (5 stars): EXCELLENT WASHER
I don't know where all these bad reviews are coming from!!  I purchased this washer a month ago and have used it continuously.  Yes, it uses very little water -- it is made to do that to conserve.  The "wooshing" sound is due to the impeller (does not have an agitator).  I recently washed a king size bed quilt  and it came out beautiful, not wet or dripping as these other people state.  First, it sounds like these consumers are used to an agitator and cannot adjust to the change to impeller.  Second, washer must be COMPLETELY LEVEL to work properly and the load sensing size is fantastic.  I even used a second rinse since the quilt was quite heavy and it spun out nicely.  Seems to me these people should stick with an agitator washer or learn how to use an impeller washer.  Dirty jeans and sweat socks came clean, even my pet's blanket came out beautiful.  Perhaps GE should give lessons on how to use this washer for those who have so many complaints.
