Product review (1 stars): GE makes crappy machines!
if I could give it a negative star I would.  GE made out really good on my deal.  A brand new unit that is the older model of this identical machine cost me $1200 to purchase.  It was in service for a year then $300 repair bill came since it had just ran out of one year warrantee.  Less than a year later, my repair guy, with a service call, old me the entire thing is gone and needs new transmissions, motors, bearings, for the entire machine and was going to cost $850.  He suggested to scrap it since it'll never be "fixed".  He said of all the washer/dryer units he fixed.  This one is by far the worst machine since most parts behind the cover are made with plastic.  He suggested for me to talk to GE and see if they can do anything.  It was in service for less than 2 years!  After lengthy discussions and back and forth with GE escalation department (about one months of chasing them).  They best they can do is to offer discounted parts or THIS unit which replaced the unit I had.  To spend another $850 to repair it or to get equally as expensive replacement.  Either way, I'm not happy since I just spent $1650 for a machine that worked for less than 2 years and now will have to buy a new machine again!  They should had offered a new  I'll review again after my experience with the new one but I'll say I'm not confident that it'll last me that long.
