Woman!! This video is AMAZING!! You have no idea how clueless I am with the multi options so if its ok, when I get mine delivered, may I ask you some questions?
Thank you Queen 👑!. When you get yours delivered ask away. I understand exactly what it’s like to have multiple options and trying to figure it all out. I am a project manager for new construction builds and therefore I try to recommend the best appliances and grades of materials including consulting with certified plumbers, HVAC contractors and electricians. When I showed a few of them these units they were not just impressed but informed me about all the information needed to make this purchase and give me a peace of mind.
@@socrates936 I do recommend that you make this purchase if you want to upgrade to this “GE Smart Washer” or “GE Smart Dryer” ( with all the bells and whistles mentioned in my video) lol . But I also recommend that you definitely do your research, ensure that your laundry room area can support both units ( electrical outlets, hot / cold water valves, water pressure in your laundry room area etc). I believe in the freedom of consumer choice and it’s perfectly fine if you don’t make the purchase.
Getting this set today from Costco so thank you for mentioning the SmartHQ phone app so I can set it up beforehand. The reason you don't need teflon tape on the water/steam hose is because it has a rubber gaslet. Teflon tape is used to seal between threads, but a rubber gasket/o-ring does the same job. I do know some people don't know why and add teflon tape anyways, but you don't need to wrap teflon tape on anything with an o ring or rubber gasket on that connection side. If you are wrapping teflon, make sure the threaded metal end is pointing towards you and wrap the teflon tape clockwise about three wraps (make sure there is a gap on the end of the threaded end, it's to seal the "base" of the threads not all the way to the end) so when you tighten whatever is on the connector end, it tightens the tape (there is a right way to do it). For some video suggestions on teflon tape, search Mg7bOIRB-mo and 6ZG2977XT7A the search bar from channel seejanedrill.
@@jkxss I am aware of the rubber inlet seal and the Teflon tape method. I do not recommend this method to be utilized especially when consumers are investing a significant amount of money on a smart washer. I have another video on this channel in which I discussed my installation day in detail and the chaos created by the installation team leader who recommended the Teflon tape. To each its own but as a real estate/ new home construction professional, I have always checked all and triple checked all appliance installments for my SFR portfolio and properties and one thing I can say from my years of experience is that Teflon tape is not a good idea.
Congratulations on your purchase that sounds like an amazing deal. I also hope that they are awesome and that they each work out well for you on your installation and delivery dates. ♥️♥️
No, there is not a feature listed on the GE Profile Smart Washer to add more water but there is a feature which you can select “extra rise”, or “pre-wash”. The “rise cycle” will add an additional “rise” to your desired cycle. Allowing your items to be rise a secondary time. You will see the added numbers of minutes on the screen of your GE Profile Smart Washer for both the additional timeframes for the “extra rise” or “pre-wash” features. You can also select the “pre-wash” cycle on top of any selected wash cycle: such as the normal wash cycle, quick wash etc. Once selected, the pre-wash cycle will wash your items before beginning the cycle you selected ( more water will be added to your wash cycle to adjust for this setting) . You can select both the pre-wash and the extra rise features with any of the desired wash cycles with the exception of the self cleaning feature.
You are most welcome and yes, the washer machine is loud during the spin cycle. You can select your desired “spin cycle” of: Max, High, Medium or Low on certain wash cycles. I have a follow up video that you can watch called: It’s Laundry Day (GE Smart Profile 5.3 Front Load Washer & GE 7.8 cu. ft. Front Load Electric Dryer). ua-cam.com/video/zvOQ_LscCrI/v-deo.htmlsi=CtI94ZN-ojkhb9FE. Where you can briefly see and hear what you might experience on your laundry day.
Thank you for this! I went to the store for printer ink & came out with this set 🙈 I can't wait for it to be delivered as I've been without a washer for almost a yr!!
You are most welcome 🤗. Lol. That also happens to me when I walk into one of my favorite stores. I go in there for 1 item and leave with some other items lol. Congratulations on your new purchase. I hope your delivery/ installation date is smooth sailing. Best of luck to you.
@@CynthiaBurkeen lol. I can completely relate. It also happens to me at one of my favorite stores. Congratulations on your purchase and I hope all goes well for you on your installation day ❤️
It depends on the cycle you select on the GE Profile 5.3 Cu Ft. Smart Wash. Based on your cycle selection, typically water usage for your front load smart washer is about 13 to 25 gallons of water per load.
@@lasvegas5603 You are most welcome and WOW that is really strange that your GE Profile Washer only dampens the clothes. I recommend contacting GE via their customer service number or directly through your HQ App to schedule an appointment to have a technician come to your home and do a diagnosis.
@@lasvegas5603 I was unaware of all of the details in your original inquiry but thought that your GE Washer was experiencing technical issues during the wash cycle which was why I recommended reaching out to GE. So far, I have not needed to utilize the "MAX" soil feature to dampen my clothes but glad to hear you were able to resolve the issue. 🙂It is a Smart Washer so you will discover that the design for the GE Washer and GE Dryer adapts according to the cycle you select, if you utilized the Smart Dispense feature, Power Steam feature, your soil levels, temperature levels and spin feature.
I just bought the washer to replace my speed Queen. It’s amazing! This video is super helpful! I learned a lot! Just a plug for the pedestal, the average laundry basket doesn’t fit under the door when it’s underneath.
Congratulations on your purchase Queen. I am glad that this video was helpful to you and you were able to gather some information. My pedestal installation included the brackets. Yes 🙌🏽!!, you are correct regarding the average Laundry basket not fitting under the door when it’s underneath but I assume GE took this into consideration and designed the storage with consumers in mind. Lol 😂
The GE Profile Electric Dryer handles blankets well in my observation. My blankets don’t roll in a bundle. It comes out the dryer crisp, warm and in its original blanket form.
The current price for the GE Profile Smart Front Load Washer and GE Profile Smart Front Load Dryer can range from $999.00 each up to $1,300.00 each depending on the option you desire to purchase.
@@kevinamaya9034 It depends on the GE Profile model you purchase. For example, the GE Profile Gas Dryer may require a 120 V and GE Profile Electric Dryer may require a 240V. It also depends on how your laundry room area is wired. Some homes are wired with 208V, 220V or 240V.
Thanks sooo much for posting this video. I recently purchased this set and had no idea it would be so different from my old school set. One question I have is “is your washer loud? sounds like a airplane engine”? 🤔
@clewis9575. You are most welcome 🙂. Congratulations on your purchase of the GE Profile Smart Washer & GE Profile Smart Dryer Set. Yes, it's all about advancement and adding new technologies to everything we do as consumers LOL. I think GE along with other companies are paying close attention to consumer demands, features and capabilities. 💗💗To answer your question, when or if you select the spin feature to "Max" or "High" before you start your desired wash cycle, during the cycle, the GE Profile Smart Washer will sound like an airplane engine ready for flight. You have the option of changing your "Spin Cycle " setting" to Medium, Low, or No Spin". In these settings, the noise level will not sound like an airplane but more like the normal vibes of a Smart Washer. Also, you will not be able to "select" a spin feature" for the "self-clean mode only". This is the only cycle on the GE Profile Smart Washer where the spin feature is set for you at: "Medium" and you won't be able to select any other spin settings. I hope this answered your question. Wishing you the best of luck on your installation / delivery day🙂.
Congratulations on your new GE Profile Front Load Washer & Dryer purchase. Just make sure that “Best Buy” has all of the accessories needed during your install day. Wishing you all the best.

So once you start the washer how much water is actually in the tub.
It depends on the cycle you select on the GE Profile 5.3 Cu Ft. Smart Wash. Based on your cycle selection, typically water usage for your front load smart washer is about 13 to 25 gallons of water per load.
1st Thank you, no matter what I did I only got enough water that dampened the clouds and that’s it. 🤷🏽♂️

It turns out that this washer is designed to reduce water intake, but to add more water you have to raise the soil level to max.

Does dryer handle blankets well by not rolling into a bundle?
