Does the washer and dryer have to be the same brand?
I already have a GE dryer but need a new washer. Do I have to purchase a GE washer or can I buy another brand that I like better with the features I'm looking for?
Only reasons to buy same brand and series are:
1) they can be stacked,
2) same size and looks good.
There is no other reason to have same brand/series.
