Second one. The first one lasted less than a year. Lowe's replaced it and the replacement went about 3 years.

Yes, it sucks royally. But it's not all that uncommon I'm hearing. They literally DON'T make things like they used to. And I've tried buying the extended warranty, but it always seems that it takes forever to get the parts. In this day and age, who can go three weeks without a washer???!!!

I bought a Samsung. I couldn't find a washer that was in stock and available in my zip code that didn't have at least a few bad reviews. I bought this one for its size. I hope and pray that it will be a good one!

Thanks again for all of the input. And if anyone ever needs a control panel replaced on a GE Profile Washer, I can do it!!! LOL
