Interesting to see that GE actually put a real steam generator in this washer. Most manufacturers will just energize the regular heater in the tub and call it steam washing.

Progress Indication
Interesting that there is no cycle progress indication other than the count down timer. Thought they should display [WASH] [RINSE] [SPIN] on the panel somewhere...

The next step up machines have the cycle indicator on them. I am liking this machine more and more. No vibration at all on this machine. We have the tile floor over the tile board that is on the plywood then the wood subfloor. I did a load of jeans and on the old FL would vibrate lots but this one did great. Have 3 queen cotton blankets on the sanitize cycle right now and 2 hours and 34 minutes long.
GE!!

This is a real nice washer. How long is the average normal wash cycle take?
Thanks,
Peter

On the Whites 1 hour and 10 minutes if using the settings programed in. 1 hour and 4 minutes on the colors.
If you change the soil level, water temp or spin to extra can go up and down. Doing a speed cycle on hot right now and it is 36 minutes.
I like the cycles and how they can be modified. The bulky seems to add more water.
I think the sanitize cycle will be the longest.
I have yet to try the E cycles with all cold water but if I am on a cycle and press the button for e cycle it almost doubles the time? I want to see one run to see if the drum does different.
The Hydro Motions is just that the drum changes direction.
For the price I paid at HD a big bang for the money.

New GE FL Washer
Where is it made ?, a lot of GEs FL washers are made in China by LittleSwann, and even a lot of Samsung's washers are now coming from China. If you take the top off and do a little reading of the labels on the parts you may be able to tell.
And it may even be assembled in the US with a lot of LG parts, check it out and let us know, Thanks John.

I will take a look tomorrow. We have the old dryer stack on top right now. tomorrow will take the dryer off getting ready for the new GE matching dryer. One of my sons has a Samsung washer and dryer and the washer looks like this GE. The dryer is GE drum wish on the new one which is GFDS140EDWW. The steam on this dryer is from the cold water itself so no having to put water in a jug for it to work.
After a lot of digging and looking around the washer is GE but is a lot like the Samsung that is this size front loader Friends have a Samsung and it is sure kinda like our GE. The dryer drum is GE all the way with the tub and the 3 v shaped vanes
So far this is a great washer. To me uses plenty of water o wash and the rinses are very good. Using Gain liquid, Cheer liquid and Tide no scent liquid. Our powdered is Sears orange box.
Have dumped the water on several loads after final rinse was done and the water has been clear. Makes me think of the old Dash commercials. Really like the FridgKenmore Square door model and matching crier but I think these are way ahead.
Had to add extra rinses with it and not this one yet. I did buy today the new Gain pods at Wal-Mart to try. I just want to do some test like Frigilux/Eugene does to show how this washer preforms with different detergents.
