The Best Washer Dryer EVER? The Ultimate GE 2-in-1-washer Dryer Combo Test & Review

Link to the GE 2-in-1 Washer! bit.ly/3QxO5KF If you have any other questions, I'd be happy to answer them in the comments, or future videos. Please understand that there's probably a few things missing from this video due to time constraints, rather than any intention, so I'll be following up with a lot more content in the future!

I'm a little surprised how much you got stuck on the filter. Like you pointed out, if you don't clean that in a regular dryer, you're going to have an issue, so that doesn't make this unit any different to a regular dryer. On my regular dryer, I clean the lint filter after every load. I'd treat this unit the same way.

I purchased this washer and to put it simply, its amazing. It's saves space, its quiet, and it gets clothes clean. The convenience of just putting a load in first thing in the morning or before you go to bed and have it completely finished when you come back or wake up CANNOT be overstated. Typically, im a top load washer guy because I like lots of water to wash towels, blankets, and really dirty stuff. I cannot say that this washer cleans as effectively as a top loader when washing the same volume of clothes so I just do smaller loads with the "more water" and "extra rinse" settings on and things come out fresh and clean. There is also a "more dry" setting as well, to help things get very dry. This washer is like having a laundry service, it allows me to do other things while my clothes go from dirty to completely clean and dry. Also, no venting or 240v outlet needed... what?!! Since time is our most valuable resource... this washer/dryer is well worth the money.

Wow I'm a HVAC mechanic who specializes in heatpumps and uses them to heat my home and never would have thought of this ever though it makes perfect sense, genius!

I just wanted to Thank You for this channel! I've worked for Lowe's for just over a year and your channel has been instrumental in my learning about appliances! I have repeatedly been thanked for being so knowledgeable by customers and that is thanks to you and your channel! I have done additional research but your channel still remains my best source. I suggest your channel to every customer to check out before believing me if they have any doubts at all! Thank you, thank you, thank you!❤

I got this machine for ~$2,000 during a 4th of July deal. We have very limited space and were planning on getting a Miele or Bosch stacking set until we saw this come out. The bigger capacity was really the big selling point for us vs the Miele and Bosch's. We've had it running for about a month now and no complaints. We are diligent with filter cleaning but we do have 2 dogs and 2 cats so hopefully it keeps running well for us. I'm a very handy person so if it comes down to it, I should be able to take it apart and thoroughly clean it every few years if that's what's needed. Our normal sized loads are typically 2 hours or so to wash and dry, but we have had a load or two that stayed at the "1 minute" mark for 30 minutes or so before it finally finished. We really like that it's one-and-done and that you can't forget to move a load from the washer to the dryer now. Regardless of how long it takes to dry, we still save a ton of time ultimately because it starts drying as soon as the washing is done.

You've helped me help many people with cheap or free appliances. Another thanks to the people that put appliances on the roadside with a note of whether it works and or what the symptoms are.

Outstanding review, Ben! My sister's dryer unit conked out recently, and she and I were in the market to split the cost on replacing it and the matching washer (both are nearly 15 years old). Browsing through an RV supplies site, I saw a blurb about "combo washer/dryer" units and was curious about how they worked. Thanks a million for the breakdown and explanation on the technology. Keep up your awesome work!

This is an amazing review video... A FULL TEARDOWN?! Brother you are working hard to make high quality videos for us! Thank you very much.

Our Admiral front load combo from the late 50's worked perfectly and tirelessly for years of 2-4 loads a day. In those days we washed EVERYTHING after 1 use and ironed EVERYTHING including tea towels and diapers.

Thank you for the review! For a more realistic stain test, let the stains dry for at least 24 hours before washing; it's easy to remove still moist stains.

If you are watching this, your age is showing.

Even as a child I always wondered why washer/dryer combos weren't more prevalent. It seems like such an obvious thing to want. It does both jobs in half the space. Yet it's pretty rare to see them. Even when trying to find some online I only see around 4, this ge being one of them.

Thanks for this, it's pretty neat. I work for GE Appliances in one of their logistics sections, so it's cool seeing someone test and break down a machine that customers could call in about.

I’ve been anxiously waiting for this video! Your content has given me so much valuable information that I’ve been able to pass along to customers and help them be better informed and prepared for their purchase. This video has helped tremendously, thank you so much!!! Very excited to show this to my coworkers!

Thanks for the review Ben, I purchased this machine on sale at Costco, i think around $1900 as a July 4th promo. So far I’m happy with it, it seems like a well engineered machine

Fantastic review! Thanks for going so in-depth to explain how it works. We don’t need a new machine (yet!), but when we do, I’d like to think I’ll come back and use the links you’ve provided. Again, thanks for showing all the details. Love it!

I know in my area, the city requires peak electrical load calculations before you can get a permit to install a high wattage EV charger in your garage. This unit would allow you to reduce that peak by 5000 watts from a standard electric dryer, which might make a significant difference in the size of EV charger allowed. A typical 200A service for a home would be able to supply 38400 watts for a continuous load (80% of 200A at 240V), so saving 5000 real watts is actually about 13% of the total load capacity.

I've seen a few other reviews of this machine, but to be honest, yours was the one I was waiting for. I've been watching your channel for a while now and I trust and value your knowledge, opinions, and deep dive, detailed analysis of all the appliances. I also appreciate your jokes, references and fun, sweet compliments of your wife. A couple of things I don't believe you mentioned are that 1) it uses a standard electric plug, not the giant 220 dryers usually do, and 2) no venting. Overall, this seems like a great machine and a cool innovation, if overpriced (but then, it is still new to the market and might come down over time, hopefully). If I ever have that kind of money to burn, this one is on my short list. Thanks for your review!👏

You definitely gave me peace of mind. We hope to age in place and negotiating the stairs to reach washer/dryer in the basement has become a bit dicey. We bought, this machine as a compromise to solve aging mobility issues. We figured it cost less than a full remodel of a room in our home. We were able to place it in our climate controlled all season room. Re: filter, I faithfully am used to cleaning it after each load anyway.
