What's the Difference?: GE Front Load Laundry Sets

[@MRFLAPPYTREE]

just got the 850 series on sale for 1700 for the pair. i was gonna get the 650 but the autodry setting is something that we will 100% be using so i went with those.

[@julioreina4490]

Great video. This is exactly the video i needed comparing all machines and explaining the differences. i have been looking at the 650 vs 850 and this was perfect.

[@mskatpurple43090]

Hi there, I am unsure which one to get and would like to know if you purchased either and how you are liking it?

[@swe3t23]

@@mskatpurple43090 what did you end up getting. i think it is just the size

[@damiansalinas6392]

Ben is awesome at explaining/describing appliances and their unique features. Ben, please do an overview video on washers and dryers for beginners, I know it would be amazing 🙏

[@mingli1241]

Came across your video when I was buying a new washing machine during Black Friday. Ended up with the new profile 950. Just got it delivered today. Will updates

[@seanolesiuk5664]

How do you like the 950? Cant decide between that or 650

[@mingli1241]

@@seanolesiuk5664 love it so fair since buying.

[@seanolesiuk5664]

@@mingli1241 thanks! We just ordered the 850. It was $500 cheaper than the 950 so hopefully we like it just as much as you!

Your updates suck…js

[@LawnGasm]

I just got these. Getting loud hose on off bangs. Added arresters. Still hard on and off. Is this normal?

[@JavierG26868]

Currently debating between the 550 vs 650 series. Currently the 550 bundle is $1550 vs the 650 bundle $2050. Trying to make sense if the features justify the $500 increase for the washer/dryer combo.

[@mskatpurple43090]

Which one would you recommend? I am debating which one to get and would appreciate your input if you purchased either one

[@JavierG26868]

@@mskatpurple43090 hi Carmela, I ended up going with the 550 series because of the appealing price tag. I love it! I didn’t find I need for the extra features like the auto detergent dispense, or steaming, etc. I just bought a new home so I used those savings put it towards another project. Regardless you will be happy with both options. If you find a deal on the 550 series you won’t regret it.

[@mskatpurple43090]

@@JavierG26868 I just saw this and I appreciate your response! thank you :)

[@Yourooteeah]

Something worth mentioning is that in about three years, the drain pump, control board or the inverter may go bad and need replacing. My current situation with the 650

[@MrJt3451]

what brand washer would you pick i already have a great top load speed queen it does a great job but i would like another for large items etc one thats dependable uses the most water ha ha for front load and does a good job washing so confused been researching for weeks thank you for your hep

[@Gunther703]

Very Helpful! Thank you! You helped me make my buying decision

[@ingakerkhoven7816]

This video is awesome! I do have some questions I’m hoping someone can answer for me. I’m between the 650 and 850 (the middle and top of the three line series) Can I add water to the 850? I have read a ton of reviews on 850 and I always see people saying it doesn’t add a lot of water and clothes don’t get as clean bc there isn’t enough water to rinse dirt/soap. What is the actual difference between the 650 and 850 as far as features and cycles? I know one has 10 and the other 12 but what extra things are there? Good or bad? Thank you!!

[@NinjaKiller1022]

What do you think about GE’s Profile UltraFresh 950 series. It’s a little bigger in capacity, at 5.3 cu. ft.? Was wondering what your thoughts were the larger capacity one, and if it would be worth it.

[@Appliancefactoryout]

King-sized comforters are one of the main reasons people need a larger capacity. The models in this video are already large enough to handle all but the bulkiest of king-sized comforters, so unless you have a very thick comforter you may not need the extra capacity. The other consideration would be the average size and frequency of your laundry loads. If you are doing multiple full loads per week, the extra size could save you time by letting you do fewer loads. If you typically aren't filling the machine, or are only doing one or two loads a week you probably wouldn't notice the size difference.

[@michelerowley5632]

Great video! You explained things really well.

[@electricbutterfly1]

Are there any other manufacturers out there with venting systems?! I’m in Florida so I’m in love with this idea!! Also as far as durability if I don’t plan on keeping them past five years is it an important factor?

[@jersonmancebo7453]

Hey do you recommend gas or electric dryer what’s more reliable and higher efficiency?

[@MRFLAPPYTREE]

gas is just one more source of possible carbon dioxide leaks. i would never get a gas dryer even if i had the hookup

[@davey3765]

Ben did such a good job

[@MrJt3451]

only the lower model has the more water button what does that do and how much more water does it add etc

[@dylanwbarnes]

Just realized the 65 doesn’t seem to have the washer link feature where it communicates with the dryer, like the 85 series does. Is that a feature I'll really miss out on?

[@greenidguy9292]

Actually the 650 series does have the dryer link feature

[@davidwilliams4754]

Great video. Made me select color way easier. Thank you.

[@livingaboard]

Just got the 650 washer for $595 at ge on clearance. They are coming out with a newer model. Also got the 85 series matching dryer for $476 also in clearance. Unfortunate the washer is white and they only had the dark metallic color left at that low price. They are in a closet so color doesn’t really matter The 85 series dryer is a step up from the actual matching dryer to my 650 washer but that’s fine for the price.

[@n-da-bunka2650]

Good but... what is the difference between the blue and the "profile"?

[@rjejames28]

I got the 850 so far it's great

[@andreahershberger724]

You're able to do a door reversal on the washer also?

[@thedude2897]

Yup. One of the only washers that you can.

[@josevargas-xx5wk]

Great and and well explained, tks so much!!!!

[@JustMe007]

Won't the overnight wash & dry wrinkle sitting there all night when done? Hot juicy salesman. 😅😜😁🔥

[@tomcat6933]

Just but the GE 650 in satin nickel.

[@truckguy6.7]

You can minimize the odors by keeping the door open, use powder soaps (liquids are fat based) and keeping the filter and door seal clean. BUT, GE washers do not use enough water and they keep way too much dirty water in the bottom of the machine between loads. This is a non vented warm area where too much bacteria mixed dirty water just sits and gets extremely nasty. They could easily change the design but after years and years they haven't. They know there is an issue with these machines. It's disgusting wearing clothes that are full of bacteria.

[@HockeyGuy_in_STL]

Scrubs! Totally. . . 👍

[@cami5769]

This is by far the worst washing machine. Does not wash nor rinse clothes properly. the amount of water the machine uses is way reduced. We have had the machine for 4 months and slowly started noticing my daughters white clothes not getting cleaned. Especially the underarm area which turned gray and yellow on all her whites as well as odor. The washer also does not rinse all of the soap out no matter the cycle as well as using the extra rinse option and the machine itself is very loud. Save your money and look else where .. horrible piece of engineering. Also is not easy on the water bill because we have to keep running the extra rinse cycle. the other issue is if you a smaller laundry room run both the washer and the dryer at the same time the heat from the dryer and moisture from the washer will cause your walls to sweat or collect moisture while they are both running. so resolve this we have to leave the window open i have to say the noise generated by the so called venting sounds like a semi truck and for us is a problem .. machine does not rinse or wash your clothes properly .. we kept it for 4 months and got rid of it.

GE appliances is a Chinese company owned brand. If their products are great they don't need to sold it to Haier many years ago.
