GE® Pedestal

Trying to see if there is a recall on product paid $280.00 Each and I can’t put anything in the drawer or it pops, drags on frame and sometimes catches And can’t open all the way.

I am on my third washer because of the vibration and noise when it goes into the spin cycle. After two service calls for the problem I was told it’s the pedestal! I had the washer removed from the pedestal and now I don’t have the noise or vibration problem. Once the pedestal was removed we found that one of the feet had lost its rubber pad, could that have been the problem? Don’t know since no one at GE tech support has an answer.

We recently bought a pair of these pedestals to go with our new washer and dryer pair. There are two problems with them. First is simply that they are too tall by about 3 inches, meaning that the washer and dry when placed on top of the pedestals won't fit under a standard upper cabinet. In fairness, I was told about this by the seller before I bought them and I just moved the cabinets higher on the wall. But that may not be practical in most situations. I suppose the pedestals are as high as they are to accommodate large containers of detergent, etc, but that brings up the problem. The rated capacity of the drawers is 50lb, but a 15lb box of Tide detergent is heavy enough to cause the bottom of the drawer to sag enough that it scrapes LOUDLY on the bottom frame of the cabinet. It is very annoying - I can't imagine that these things made it through GE's product testing regime.

In less than 60 days of use the bottom of the drawers is sagging which causes the drawer to drag on the frame. My husband is trying to attach the bottom to the divider to keep it from sagging but not sure if this will work.

the drawer latch is hard to open. it seems to stick and you to jerk to open.
