so I had really really high hopes for this $900 top-load GE washer but there are a few issues with it that hold it back from greatness first of all its performance is just not that great it does okay in terms of stain removal but compared to some other models we've reviewed it just really doesn't hold up and then also in terms of gentleness it was pretty gentle on the clothes but there are other models that have performed better I do like the look of this washer overall the display is generally easy to use but it has this optional Wi-Fi integration so you actually have to spend an extra 49 bucks to get this connect plus accessory that's sold by GE and on Amazon that actually just hooks into the back and it gives this dumb washer Wi-Fi smarts so that seems pretty simple but it's a lot more involved than it would be if this washer just automatically came with Wi-Fi smarts I do like that it isn't something you're paying a premium for so it's just 900 bucks you're not paying that extra 200 bucks for something you may not want but it's gonna take a lot more work to configure it then it would if you just had a smart washer to begin with so while I do like the way this washer looks and its display I wouldn't recommend it strictly for its lower performance and it's sort of wonky Wi-Fi connected
