Yep. Bought this because I got tired of dealing with gas, transferring clothes, etc.

I was very surprised at how well it worked. But of course, temper your expectations.

You can't FULLY load it. And expect things to dry completely.

I do smaller loads, which is still quite a lot compared to my old GIANT Maytag top loading.

It's quiet, efficient and it's dry when it's all done. The app notifies when it's 5 minutes away from being done. And when it's actually done.

The clothes come out damp feeling but when you expose it to air, it just dries up completely. Weird. But true.

And the clothes are nice and soft. I think the best part is the 32oz of liquid detergent. I set it to auto. And I can do a decent amount of loads.

12-15. Depending on the clothes.

One thing…I did buy a dedicated small battery Ryobi vacuum It makes it easier to vacuum the lint after 1-2 laundry.

Remember. The cleaner the lint basket is. The dryer the clothes come out. So I've made it a habit to just do it every 1-2 loads.

Regular clothes don't produce much lint. It's the blankets, towels and bathroom floor rugs that do.


Just things to consider and think about. I've had it for about 6 months. I'm happy.

I considered putting a second one side by side to do more laundry. Since they do sell a Y site connector for the water intake. But…I'm happy with the one.

I ended up just putting full wall cabinets where the old dry er used to be.
This uses a heat pump to generate heat and remove moisture. So the drying effect is similar to the evaporator in your home AC system, in that it pulls moisture from the air and just sends it to the drain without needing to vent externally. Pretty neat setup, and the reviews I've seen online seem positive about the tech. It also uses MUCH less electricity than a standard dryer. Like 1/4 per load vs. traditional dryer with heating element.
If you are a first responder or government employee, GE offers a 20% discount through their website using ID.me. Their listed price is $2,199, but after the discount shows as $1,759.20 with free shipping (not including your local tax).

Stupidity? Really? It works for you, great, but calling the rest of the world stupid for spending less and getting the same if not better cleaning and drying technology and a much larger capacity? Not being able to set drying temperature is a HUGE disadvantage. I would say over half of my clothes say to dry in low heat, so if this does not let you change the dry temperature, then that's a big NO.



You should really listen to your own advice.


Ok, forget the space-saving, 120v, and ventless part of the equation because as I have explained multiple times, many people just don't need that.

How is this better than say this combo which is $550 less, has better washer and dryer tech like steam, has a much bigger capacity, and again COST less? LG doesn't make great other appliances but their washers and dryers are top rated well over GE. I have had the worst luck with reliability with GE Monogram, and Profile is an even lower line than Monogram.

It's one thing to like your purchase, but the way some of you are carrying on and on about this after less than 2 years of ownership (probably even less than that) has me really concerned about your intention.
The GE is a heat pump dryer. So there is no need to have adjustable temperature. The temperature doesn't get that hot for any loads.

A conventional dryer on low temperature reaches about 125F. Heat pump dryer [youtube.com]s maxes out around 113F. So that's why it doesn't have a temperature setting. It's drying everything at a temperature that's even lower than 'low' of a conventional dryer.

From the youtube videos I have seen, it is at a greater dry time as well.

How much exactly is the energy savings if you have a much less capacity that requires you to do almost twice as many loads? Someone here mentioned they are doing 17 loads a week with this thing. That is well more than twice as many loads as an average family. Where is the energy savings in that?
Well, in my case, moving from an older Samsung washer/dryer pair to the GE Combo, the combo is 4x more efficient from an energy perspective. We've done a few loads since it arrived so these numbers aren't long term averages, but our old system used 3.55KWh to do a full load of laundry, and took just under 2 hours to do it. The GE combo used 0.88 KWh to do similar sized loads, and took just over 2 hours to do it.

I wouldn't say capacity is halved either - the new loads were probably 10-20% smaller, maybe. I have to say that I REALLY like the whole don't-have-to-switch-the-load. I put dirty stuff in, hit a few buttons, and come back to clean, dry clothes 2 hours later.

New unit is about the same noise level as the old dryer but a different, less-annoying tone. The unit pulls about 4W when connected to wifi and powered off. I'm going to look at disabling that and see if power drops to 0.

So far I'm very happy with the purchase, as our old dryer (purchased new in 2010) was the #2 consumer of electricity in the house.

Just my initial impressions after 2 days and a half-dozen loads of mixed laundry. Take it for what it's worth.

I said 17 loads it of course fluctuates based on life. App currently showing 54 cycles last 30 days. We make our kids do their own laundry separated by colors. Towels sheets etc adds up. We not in the business of doing our kids laundry and stuffing huge loads in. 17 loads is a testament how much this machine can crank out. We never changed an our habits so I am saving money. That's how savings work it's relative to you not others.

Check out this video about the energy savings for standard electrical/gas appliances versus heat pumps. The washer will use the same amount of power. It is the dryer that will make a difference :

https://youtu.be/g287qnmPM7s?si=F1BSQiewpqo-cBK7

This will require the same number of loads as a standard washer/dryer. It may take longer per load but also gives you the advantages of doing laundry at your convenience rather than limiting yourself to when you are able to transfer clothes from the washer to the dryer. You can almost run a load nightly and end up with dry clothes in the morning. A lot of people may find a benefit in that. Plus there are the advantages of being able to use this in a lot more places than standard washer dryers that need a 240v circuit and a hole in the wall for venting.

Um, what? That's like saying ignore this truck with 4WD, offroad capability, towing capability, and get these 2 station wagons instead - they can carry more people! You should definitely listen to your own advice about listening to your own advice dude.

So you are saying, EVERYONE buying this is taking advantage of the ventless and 120v aspect of this???? It's all good on paper but in the end, the need for a water supply AND drain will make people put this in....guess what....the utility room. The same room you could use a 240v washer dryer requiring a vent, which all utility rooms have, unless you are custom building for this purpose, remodeling for this purpose, or have an idiot for builder. So are you saying everyone who buys this is doing a custom build or remodeling or have a stupid builder who forgot to put a vent and 240v in a utility room????

You can get a very nice washer and dryer set for 1300-1500. The most expensive pair at costco is 1500, with steam tech, etc. So this is still at least 500 more than a very nice washer/dryer combo. if you have a need for it, then sure. But for the rest of the world that plan on putting it in a utility room with a vent and 240v, what's the justification for spending $500 more for a lower capacity system? yes, the convenience of washing and drying without taking it out is very appealing, but there are plenty of clothes that can be washed and not recommended to be machine-dried. Pretty much all of lululemon clothing recommends you don't put it in the dryer. So in that situation, then you still have to stop after washing and remove those article of clothing that shouldn't be dried which defeats the main advantage of this. If you have to do a separate load just for those clothes, well now you are doing more loads which defeats the energy savings.

Like I have said from the very beginning, the tech is very cool, I will admit that, but it is still very pricey. If this comes down to the 1200-1500 range, which it will eventually, then it will be hit. Don't forget, if this breaks and is time to replace, you are replacing the equivalent of both washer and dryer. On conventional sets, you replace the one that is broken since they rarely break both at once. That helps ease the cost by quite a bit.

Got the deal with GE for $1760 but opted to go with Costco because of return policy and free one year extra warranty. It ended up costing me about $150 more with Costco... but again, it's peace of mind. I'd much rather deal with Costco than a company that doesn't have a physical location.

5 year warranty is $70-100 cheaper at Costco as well. This is THE one item I would splurge on the extended coverage. think it's $129/159 depending if it's itemized under/over $2k on receipt

Just bought one from Lowes for $1998. The price is expected to change on 11/15, maybe it'll drop a little.

Is Costco extended warranty through GE Service Protection Advantage (which is Assurant) or is it through another company?

I had to call GE warranty service once for my oven and it was surprisingly painless. I was able to book an appointment online, the guy showed up on time, diagnosed it quickly, then came back in a week to install the part. I was pleasantly surprised.

How would it work with a 3rd party extended warranty company if it's not through Assurant/GE?
