Great for printing text; not great for photos.

The plastic trays are flimsy, but OK if you are careful. If someone is in a rush (i.e. a young student) expect some of the plastic parts to get broken. I printed a spreadsheet, and it worked well, but when I printed photos on the 3 pieces of sample photo paper that came with the printer, the colors were not acceptable. They seemed to be too brown and yellow. Someone's blue suit came out sort of greenish-turquoise. It was easy to set up the wireless connection to my computer and cell phone, with the online guide that Canon directs you to

Pictures and text are clear. This is just slightly blurrier than my imac which I bought in 2013. I am happy with this monitor.

Fuzzy letters when reading text

The "Easy on the eyes" feature made text fuzzy. It gave me a slight headache pretty quickly. I returned it to Best Buy and bought an Acer monitor, which I'm happy with

Good Hoses

These hoses are easily long enough for my washing machine, and flexible enough to be hidden between the machine nd the wall

Simplify laundry washing with this 4.5 cu. ft. GE top-load washer. A speed wash setting provides clean clothes sooner, and the 14 washer cycles, six washer settings and six wash temperatures ensure the right setup for your fabrics. The auto soak option on the GE top-load washer helps you battle pesky stains before washing begins.

OK, but very strange programs (not as expected)
on February 24, 2022
Posted by: Frank
Verified Purchase:Yes
The good: You are able to select water level (Low, Medium, High, Max) although some reviews say that each of these levels depends on how much clothes you have in the machine. I always fill it while no clothes are loaded, to see how much water is in there. For normal loads, I use Medium with Deep Fill. (If I use High without Deep fill, there is too much water--not enough friction to clean clothes)
You are able to create warm water for washing clothes (for example, 90 degrees F), by first filling about 5 minutes with HOT, and then switching to WARM, but I believe you must press START/PAUSE after switching to WARM, and expect 15 seconds of cold water to pour in right after you close the id, before it actually starts pouring luke-warm water.
There's a comparable Maytag machine for sale now, and according to the reviews, you can't open the lid to see how much water is being used. So I’m glad this GE allows me to do this.
The Bad: VERY STRANGE settings. For example, In order to get a warm temperature for colors, I fill it on HOT for 5 minutes, then switch to WARM. But I have to press Start/Pause twice, otherwise it doesn't switch. If I close the lid, after closing, every time it pours about 15 seconds of cold water. (This is stupid) Then it switches to the setting that I chose.
Other Quirks with the Programming:
1. If you change water temperature during filling, sometimes it changes, and sometimes it doesn't. I think/hope it will be consistent if I press Start/Pause twice when I change temperature. Why would I want to do this? Because "WARM " is not really warm. It is 50 or 60 degrees F. The manual says that modern detergents are designed to wash in cold water. Well, that's a lie. I have tried it. It doesn't work.
2. Sometimes when you open the lid, water continues to fill. Other times, the water stops. I haven't yet figured out why it is not consistent.
3. Drain and Spin sometimes fills the machine again. The manual doesn't tell you this, but if you want to Drain and Spin again, you must have OPTIONS set to OFF, or EXTRA SPIN" otherwise it will rinse again, defeating the purpose.
4.Fabric softener doesn't dispense evenly when you put it in the middle hole, as instructed by the manual. So, when it switches to RINSE, I pour fabric softener into the water, over the clothes
5. Does not get enough water out of the clothes during spinning. Usually I do “Drain and Spin” an additional time.
6. Not possible to select "EXTRA SPIN" when you are using fabric softener. So if you want to get extra water out of clothes, you have to do Drain and Spin manually after the wash cycle is complete.
7. If it's set to HOT and you open the lid during filling, and you close the lid, it fills with cold water for about 15 seconds and then switches back to hot water. This is a strange quirk
8. The owners manual says to put detergent on top of the clothes after you load them. However, the quick reference guide says to put detergent in the bottom of the tube before loading clothes. (They should not tell you opposite information)
9. Precise fill is not acceptable for colored clothes because it pours very hot water on some colored clothes, and this can fade bright colors. The lid is locked during filling, but after filling is done, you can open the lid and feel the water. Every 6 inches around the circle, the temperature is different: very hot on some clothes, very cold on other clothes.
10. I called GE twice and emailed once, trying to determine if my machine is defective. They all said I should get a GE technician to check my machine. However, from past experience, I guess the technician would say there is nothing wrong. My point is: the GE people on the phone should know about the quirks that I described above, but they don't. Specifically: Drain and Spin starts the RINSE cycle unless you have OPTIONS set to OFF or EXTRA RINSE; and: Water pours in cold in the first 15 seconds after opening/closing the lid, even if the setting is on HOT. The techs on the phone told me this means the machine is defective. I almost returned it, but I was concerned that the replacement machine would do the same thing. So I kept experimenting and figured out that these quirks are probably normal.
My recommendation is: Write down your settings for future reference; also, how much water is in the tub, and how hot the water is. There are many possible combinations of settings. What you write down should include: "Did I open the lid?” “Did I press Pause/Start?” These minor details make a big difference in the temperature of the water that pours into the machine. Also, note how deep the clothes were, and how deep the water level was, so you’ll know for the future, which water level setting to use.
Some people complained that the sounds were like a sick duck or a cow giving birth. Well, if you want a machine that plays Glory Hallelujah, you're in for a disappointment. This machine is not loud. And mine did not vibrate and walk across the floor as some other people said it did.

Difficult to control temperatures
on January 8, 2022
Posted by: Frank
We owned this for 5 years, so I have a lot of experience before writing this.
The cooktop is easy to keep clean ,if you wipe it ever day , and use coktop cleaner when necessary. Another oro is that nothing has broken in 5 years.
The cons: it is very difficult to simmer food because you can't set the geat low enough. Also, the Back burners are not useful because they are small and are close to the back wall. The oven is another problem. It tends to burn the top of food, while not yet baking the middle of the item. This occurs with or without convection bake being turned on. You have to keep watching the color if your baked items and adjusting thd heat. A strange phenomenon is the persistent clicking of solenoids,even before the stove burners or oven has achieved its desired temperature.
