I scanned in all the pages with writing on them, there were a page or two that just had a photo of earth from space with no information on the page, I skipped those pages.

Thanks Allen for posting. I saw these at Home Depot and like the washer!! The long cycle times are, like Pete said, a BIG negative, especially if you're not washing big loads...same with the non-slanted drum. But, it has a fairly large capacity and large vanes which surprised me, and it actually has a "grab-able" door handle! The internal heater is also a plus if you ask me...

It has a lot to offer for the price...might be a potential shed machine even if I have to move something out!!

How can these new FL's claim to be so energy-friendly when they have to waste tons of electricity in wash times to make up for insufficient water use??

I think the motors on these machines are pretty efficient. Long wash time doesn't use as much power in comparison to heating gallons of water.

Thanks for posting the GE brochure; surprising that it didn't have "action pictures" or something similar.

What I want to see is energy usage ratings in KWH, that are based on a single load of full capacity (specify content of load, not just weight), with a standard cycle that's the equivalent of a FL cycle consisting of "regular wash followed by an extract spin and a deep rinse and a final spin." And water consumption in gallons for same cycle.

The GE FL's cycles are not that much longer than other big front loaders like the Neptune, Duet, etc.
