Product review (1 stars): Very poor machine - Extremely loud, doesnt rinse properly, and it leaks!
I bought the GE Unitized Spacemaker Model GTUN275GMWW six months ago to replace an older GE unitized model.  I was pleased with the previous model and used it for several years, so I didn't hesitate to buy the latest GE model when it broke.  Unfortunately, the new model is very different from my old model.  The new machine has been a clunker since the day it was installed!  Its extremely loud, it does not rinse properly, and now its leaking water and black soot from the bottom on the machine.

Ive been washing clothes for almost 30 years, and Ive used many different washing machines.  This is the only one I have any complaints about.  It is truly the worst home investment Ive ever made.

I contacted GE Appliance Service and scheduled a service appointment.  When the repair technician removed the front of the machine, he immediately saw that the machine is leaking and is rusted out.  To fix it, he needs to fully disassemble and rebuild the washer, including the transmission, tub seal, bearings, tub assembly, tub ring, inner and outer basket, and probably other parts.  This is a new machine, only 6 months old!

Given my experience, I do not recommend this machine.  Following is a more detailed description of the problems:

1) The washer leaks  Water and black residue (looks similar to black dirt when it dries on the floor) are leaking from the bottom of the washer on the left-hand side.

2) The washer is extremely noisy  My neighbors can hear it spinning from outside of my condo unit, even when they are a full flight downstairs.  It sounds like a train roaring down the tracks!  The noise interferes with phone calls and TV, and it definitely doesn't make me popular with my neighbors!

3) The washer does rinse properly  With just two regularly-sized bath towels in the washer, the washer will not rinse properly.  Even after running it through an extra 2 - 3 full wash/rinse cycles without soap (which takes a lot of time and wastes energy!) there are a lot of suds left in the water and there are suds on the sides of the tub after it spins.  To wash towels, I have to skim out the soapy water by hand.  I currently use high-efficiency (HE) laundry detergent, but the problem occurs with both HE and traditional laundry detergents.  As for the question of whether I'm using too much soap, Ive reduced the amount of soap and it didn't resolve the problem.  Also, I've been washing clothes for almost 30 years, and I've never had this problem with another washer, so I don't believe the problem is related to too much soap; the problem is with the machine and the way it rinses.
