GE WCVH6800JWW

The GE Profile WCVH6800JWW model is a mid-grade front load washer that can rightfully be paired up with the GE Profile DCVH660GHWW Gas and DCVH660EHWW Electric dryers (a link to both machines can be found in the related links section). The WCVH6800JWW washing machine features a 4.0 cu foot king-size total load capacity meaning it can handle much larger loads than the average conventional washing machine. It specifically includes an electronic rotary control that includes an illuminated LED panel and integrated adaptive logic technology; this makes it much easier for users to select wash and rinse cycles. The WCVH6800JWW device's dispenser can handle liquid and powder detergent, bleach, fabric softener, and fabric pretreatment fluids. A very unique feature of the WCVH6800JWW washing machine includes the PerfecTemp regulating technology which controls the correct wash temperatures for enhanced fabric care. The WCVH6800JWW washing device comes bundled with a limited 1 year manufacturer's parts and labor warranty for the entire appliance.

Detergent Dispenser does not have a locking mechanism which stops the water flow when opened. Area must be kept very wiped up, spills can get behind front panel and essentially seep all the way to the bottom, causing rust in hidden areas.
